High Country Critters
High Country Critters is a yak breeder in Colorado Springs, CO, serving El Paso County and the Pikes Peak region near Denver. They follow established health protocols and collaborate with local veterinarians to ensure the well-being of each animal.
Founders Lynda Gehring and Mike Gehring focus on natural husbandry, grazing yaks on spacious pastures and introducing calves to livestock guardian dogs from an early age. Both are members of regional livestock associations and maintain detailed lineage records supported by routine genetic and wellness checks. Their herd has grown steadily since the farm’s founding, reflecting careful selection for health and temperament.
Their approach supports socialization and resilience in variable mountain climates. Each animal benefits from daily monitoring of diet and behavior, with records maintained for growth and health milestones. Owners often remark on the calm temperament of the yaks and the quality of fiber suited to artisan textile work.
