Come count sheep! Encountering the Tibetan antelope breeding migration in Qiangtang

In mid-May, in the Qiangtang National Nature Reserve located in the northern part of the Tibet Autonomous Region, large groups of pregnant female Tibetan antelopes begin to assemble and migrate to their customary birthing grounds. The Qiangtang grassland is located in the northern part of Tibet, with most areas still in their pristine state. It preserves a complete and unique alpine ecosystem, nurturing a treasure trove of biodiversity with a wide variety of wildlife. In addition to the Tibetan antelope, wild yaks, and kiangs, the area is also home to snow leopards, black-necked cranes, wolves, vultures, brown bears, and other wildlife, including 10 species under first-class national protection and 21 species under second-class national protection.
