The yak is a long-haired bovine (same family as the cow), native to the Himalayans, Tibet, and Mongolia. They are well adapted to high-altitudes and have expanded lung capacity. To see a yak in your dream could indicate your capacity to climb to new heights or to rise above the crowd. In addition the yak shows you that you have an expanded capacity and the ability to store everything you need in order to help you on your journey. Alternatively, looking at the symbol from a metaphorical perspective, the yak could represent chattiness or talkativeness, as in “to yak.”
