State animal of Nagaland, the Mithun, is revered for its socio-cultural and economic importance in Naga society. However, the animal is not commonly reared in Mokokchung and are only imported from neighbouring Naga areas when needed. Seen in the picture is perhaps the only Mithun in Mokokchung, reared in a farm at Yimchalu village, Mokokchung. (MTNews photo)
