Gallery: wildlife in Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon areas (I)
In Oct.-Nov. 2010 and June-July 2011, the Tibet Tourism Co. Ltd and the Institute of Images Biodiversity Expedition (IBE) jointly launched two surveys along the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon areas to search for and record the rare and endangered wildlife there.
The surveys were mainly centered in the southeastern part of Tibet, the Mailing County, river banks of the Yarlung Zangbo River and the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon Scenic Spot.
