What is the maximal age a Gayal reaches?

An adult Gayal (Bos frontalis) usually gets as old as 26.17 years.

Gayals are around 273 days in the womb of their mother. When born, they weight 23.04 kg (50.79 lbs) and measure 6.27 meter (20′ 7″). As a member of the Bovidae family (genus: Bos), a Gayal caries out around 1 little ones per pregnancy, which happens around 1 times a year. Fully grown, they reach a bodylength of 2.7 meter (8′ 11″).
