Tauren [ˈtɔɹən] (shu'halo in their native language of Taur-ahe) (Second Human Empire: Dil'rot Ai'wiji) are huge nomadic creatures who live on the grassy, open plains of Mulgore in central Kalimdor. Tauren are large, muscular humanoids and bovine in appearance, complete with hooves and horns. They stand anywhere from six and a half to nine feet tall and weigh anywhere from 400 to 800 pounds. Their immense bodies are covered with fine, short fur that ranges in color from black to gray to white to red to brown to tan and any mottled combinations or variations thereof. After generations of nomadic existence, the tauren have recently made permanent settlements in Mulgore and the Barrens. The Tauren joined the Alliance of Nations as their homeworld was attack by the Axis in the Azeroth Campaign
