Needed - public domain image of an Ox

[The Heretic]

I am not having too much luck finding a public domain image of an ox on the 'net. I am looking for something that is face on, or in profile is recognizable as an ox. I know that just about any kind of bovine trained for field or domestic work is an ox, but I would prefer something with quite large horns. Water buffalo with large swept back horns would be good, or water buffalo with horns out to the side like a Cape buffalo would be fine too. Stylized is fine, although I would prefer to do my own stylizing. A drawing might be fine too.

But the image must be public domain!

Any ideas/sources?

Thanks.

Product logo - and yes, the software programmer's world is weird.

Ahhah .. I see now. I just didn't picture you with an ox as an avatar.

Googled or Gargled?

Just for clarification purposes, naturally.

Yes, I can find plenty of Oxen images, but I am not having luck finding one that is explicitly from a public domain collection. I would prefer a good photo as then I can do the stylizing myself in Photoshop to get it to where I want it. But since it is going to be used for a commercial product, I need to start with something that is public domain - or pay for it (which I would prefer to not do right now as my budget is tight).

Goggle Ox!

I prefer a photo, but it is going to wind up as a stylized image anyway when I get done with it - I just prefer to do the stylizing myself as I can make it into what I want that way instead of having to deal with something already stylized. Thanks for the links. I had already tried Yahoo but somehow didn't get into their clip art section.

Thanks, but I think I have now found what I needed on the Fish & Wildlife service site FG suggested. At first I didn't think I wanted Musk Oxen, but it turns out they will do just as well. I got a public domain TIFF image of three Musk Oxen and they are stylizing just fine.

Thanks everybody.
