Résumé

The Chang Tang steppe of Tibet is home to a unique assemblage of large mammals, including Tibetan antelope, gazelle, argali sheep, wild ass, wild yak, wolves, and snow leopards. Since 1985, George B. Schaller and his Chinese and Tibetan coworkers have surveyed the flora and fauna of the Chang Tang. Their research is the first detailed look at the natural history of one of the world's least-known ecosystems, including data on populations and distribution, behavior, and ecology.
