Tibetan antelope is a typical plateau animal. They mainly inhabit China's Tibet, Qinghai, Xinjiang and other regions, and can also be found in India, Mongolia and Pakistan. They usually live in alpine areas at an altitude of 3,000 to 6,000 meters and are one of the endemic animals in the plateau environment.


This animal is known for its ability to adapt to harsh environments. Tibetan antelopes have superior cold tolerance and adaptability to the thin air at high altitudes. They have gorgeous white down, wrapped in a thick layer of wool to protect themselves from the cold.


Due to its adaptation to high-altitude environments, the Tibetan antelope is regarded as one of the iconic protected animals in these areas. However, due to illegal hunting and habitat loss, the number of Tibetan antelopes has declined sharply and has become an endangered animal. Therefore, in order to protect this unique species, governments at all levels and environmental organizations have taken a series of measures to strive to maintain the living environment of the Tibetan antelope and promote the growth of its population.
