Draft animals are animals that are used to pull heavy loads, such as carts and wagons. The two most common draft animals are OXEN and teams. OXEN are typically cattle, such as bulls, cows, and steers, that have been trained to pull a load. Teams are usually horses, mules, or donkeys that are harnessed together to pull a load. Draft animals are still used in some parts of the world today, although they are becoming less common due to the availability of motorized vehicles.
