These meaty bovines are now extinct, but their image lives on in Moldova's flag, which includes an auroch's head mounted on a shield (which is presumably why they're gone, since they continued placing them on shields). The country's biggest football stadium, Zimbru Stadium, gets its name from the Romanian word for bison.
