Summary
Tibetan antelope migrations in Hoh Xil, China, are mapped and analyzed in this fact sheet, offering the most comprehensive scientific understanding of their movement patterns as of 2024. The study combines field observations with digital mapping to create an interactive atlas, providing critical insights into the behavior and habitat use of this endangered species. These findings support conservation efforts by identifying key migration routes and threats, such as climate change and human activity, while contributing to the Global Initiative on Ungulate Migration (GIUM). The research serves as a foundational resource for both scientific communities and policymakers aiming to protect these vital ecosystems.
