Potential agricultural applications for a domesticated form of the American shrub-ox?

I'm currently working on an alt history scenario wherein, alongside different geography and slight climatic changes, the Pleistocene-Holocene extinctions of megafauna don't occur. As a result, there are more large animals in the Americas, including those like horses that were domesticated elsewhere. One of these includes domestic breeds of Euceratherium AKA, the shrub-ox.

With that in mind, depending on the region and besides simply breeding them for food, milk and hides, what kind of domestic applications might we see?

The biggest obstacle to rewilding in Britain: the landowner cabal.

To some, this will sound obvious, but I've noticed a fair few people act like lobbyists, corpo-aristocrats and old money aren't the biggest threat to rewilding in Britain. Often (big shock), you'll find they've been caught up in propaganda espoused by said groups, so here's a fairly comprehensive list of the biggest landowners in the country. Take note of all those who aren't part of the UK government, the NT or conservation charities.
