Wildlife in Tibet

Tibet
is rich in wildlife. We were lucky enough to see quite a few awsome
animals during our trip. In barren West Tibet we saw such an impressive
variety of anmimals that truely amazed us. Herds of wild ass, Chiru
antelopes, and many, many birds. Of course, traditionally the domestic
animals (sheep, goat, yak, camel, horse) of the nomads are part of
it - although we observed quite some damage due to overgrazing. The links below point to websites with background information about some of the most common animals in Tibet. |
Tibet
hat eine sehr reichhaltige Fauna. Auf unserer Tour hatten wir Glück,
viele Wildtiere beobachten zu können. Besonders im kargen Westtibet
beeindruckte uns die Vielfalt and Wildtieren nachhaltig: riesige Herden
Wildesel, Chiru-Antilopen, und viele, viele Vögel. Natürlich
gehören traditionell auch die Haustiere der Nomaden (Schafe,
Ziegen, Yak, Kamel, Pferd) dazu, obwohl wir an vielen Stellen starke
Überweidungsschäden feststellen konnten. Die Links unten zeigen zu Webseiten mit mehr Hintergrund zu den häufigsten Tieren in Tibet. |
