Tibetan foxes. /CGTN Nature
Tibetan foxes mainly live on the plateau at an elevation of above 3,500 meters. Their cute, square cheeks, beady eyes and distinctive poker faces have made them an internet celebrity.
Little owl. /CGTN Nature
Within the owl family, the little owl is among the smallest. Although minuscule and cute, the little owl must not be underestimated. It has a sharp hooked beak, powerful talons and keen vision, the quintessential arsenal of any bird of prey.
Buff-throated partridge. /CGTN Nature
The buff-throated partridge mainly feeds on roots, leaves and seeds. It pecks the soil while strolling about. Its claws aren't its primary foraging implement. These birds prefer to cluster. While foraging, they take turns standing guard.
Tibetan bear. /CGTN Nature
The Tibetan bear is endemic to the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. Among the wild animals on the plateau, this bear tops the local ecological chain. This uncrowned king has no rival around.
