C. Chausingha
D. None of the above

Answer 1

Hint: Taxonomy is a branch of biology concerned with the identification, description, and categorization of all living species, including plants. Behavioural, genetic, and biochemical differences are used to classify people. Taxonomy involves the processes of characterization, identification, and classification. Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species are all terms used to classify organisms. Linnaeus Carolus is known as the "Father of Taxonomy". He was the one who devised a system for naming and organising species.

Complete answer:
Option A: Nilgai, often known as bluebuck, is Asia's largest antelope. A sloping back, a deep neck with a white patch on the throat, a short crest of hair around the neck finishing in a tuft, and white facial patches distinguish the nilgai.
So, option A is incorrect.
Option B: Kiang is another name for Tibetan wild ass. It is the biggest of the wild asses.
So, option B is correct.
Option C: Chausingha, or four-horned antelope, is a tiny antelope found in India and Nepal. Its four horns set it apart from most other bovids, which only have two.
So, option C is incorrect.
Option D: Tibetan wild ass is also known as Kiang. It is the most massive of the wild asses.
So, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.

Note:
Kiang is another name for Tibetan wild ass. It is the biggest of the wild asses. It is a Tibetan plateau native. It may now be found in India's Ladakh and Sikkim areas, Nepal, and the Tibetan plains. They have a big head with a convex snout and a blunt muzzle. The coat is a rich chestnut colour in the summer, darkening to a sleek reddish brown in the winter, and a sleek reddish brown in the late summer when the animal moults its woolly fur. Kiang is currently classified as being in the Lower Risk category.
