The Bitjug ( Russian Битюг ) is a left tributary of the Russian Don in the Oka-Don plain .
It rises in the south of the Russian administrative unit Tambow near Tokarjowka . Its water initially flows west and then mostly south. It forms the Cherkasskoye reservoir south of Bobrov , and then flows into the Don about 60 km south of Bobrov. The river is regularly frozen over from mid-December to the end of March.
After this river, a breed of strong workhorses bred in the river basin is called the Bitjug horse .
