He ʻano holoholona kūikawā nā aurochs a no ka ʻano pipi. Ua pau ʻo ia. I ka makahiki 1627 ua make nā aurochs hope loa ma Polani. Ua noho mua nā auroch ma ʻEulopa a me ʻAsia, ʻaʻole naʻe i ke anuanu o ka ʻākau. Noho ʻo ia ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau o ʻApelika. Ua hānai ʻia kā mākou pipi ʻohana mai nā auroch i ka wā kahiko.
ʻOi aku ka nui o nā auroch ma mua o nā pipi o kēia wā. Hiki i ka bipi aurochs ke kaumaha a hiki i ka 1000 kilokani, ʻo ia hoʻi he tona. He 160 a 185 kenimika kona lōʻihi, e like me ke kanaka makua. Ua liʻiliʻi iki nā bipi. He ʻeleʻele a ʻeleʻele paha ka bipi a ʻeleʻele paha, a ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula ka bipi a pipi paha. ʻO nā kiwi lōʻihi he mea hōʻeuʻeu loa. Ua piʻo lākou i loko a kuhikuhi ʻia i mua, a ua ulu a hiki i 80 kenimika ka lōʻihi.
