Oxen are commonly castrated adult male cattle, because castration inhibits testosterone and aggression, which makes the males docile and safer to work with. Cows (intact females) or bulls (intact males) may also be used in some areas.
AI overview
An ox is a large cattle animal, typically a castrated male, that has been trained to pull heavy loads and plow fields as a working animal. Oxen have historically been important for agriculture and transportation because their strength and docile temperament made them reliable for labor-intensive tasks.

閹公牛（英語：ox），又稱騸牯牛，即被閹割的公牛，閹割抑制了睾丸激素和攻擊性，令公牛更，更安全。閹公牛是一種受過訓練並用作勞動，如耕作、運輸（拉車、給人）、用於通過踩踏脫粒穀物，以及為研磨穀物或提供灌溉等用途的機器提供動力，早於公元前4000年已經被人類使用，而且比馬匹更加耐勞 。
