Muskox (Ovibos moschatus), Inuktitut: ᐅᒥᖕᒪᒃ, umingmak adalah hewan mamalia anggota keluarga Bovidae yang habitat aslinya adalah di kawasan Arktik. Sesuai namanya, hewan yang mirip bison ini memiliki ciri khas berupa bau yang tajam. Bau tersebut hanya dihasilkan oleh muskox jantan untuk menarik perhatian muskox betina, terutama pada saat musim kawin. Selain itu, kulit mereka juga ditumbuhi rambut yang membuat mereka dapat beradaptasi terhadap iklim Arktik yang dingin. Muskox paling banyak ditemukan di utara Kanada dan Greenland, serta sejumlah populasi kecil ditemukan di Siberia, Swedia, Norwegia, dan Alaska.
