Protecting biodiversity
Data from multiple wildlife observation points in Qinghai show that populations of endangered species such as snow leopards, Tibetan antelopes, Tibetan gazelles and black-necked cranes have been increasing year-on-year.
In particular, the elusive snow leopard, a rare species that was once unable to be tracked, has now been monitored by more than 1,200 individuals in the past decade. Qinghai has become one of the regions in China with the highest number of bird species. More than 220 species of more than 10 million migratory birds pass through Qinghai Lake annually.
