Akvener

The Akvener is a desert herd animal.
== Description ==
Akvener are small quadruped bovines suited for a desert environment. They live in small herds, and move in a migratory fashion in search of food. Akvener are slow as to minimise heat buildup, and have strong hide and two horns they use to ward off predators.
=== Diet ===
Akvener are herbivores and will eat any plant life they come across. However, due to the moisture content of cacti, Akvener prefer these plants over others, and have developed a spine proof area of skin around and inside the mouth to allow them to eat cacti without pain.
=== Use ===
The most common uses for domesticated Akvener are as draft beasts, and being butchered for meat and leather. Akvener leather is notably durable, given the defensive and water retaining nature of the skin.
