TIBETAN ANTELOPES AND SNUB NOSE MONKEY- CHINA

The width of Khuse Lake in the Hoh Xil nature reserve, home for over 70,000 Tibetan antelopes, has increased from 80 m to 600 m due to flood water inundating the migration routes of Tibetan antelopes. Meanwhile, the number of endangered Snub-nose Monkey in the Mangkam Snub-nose Monkey Nature Reserve has increased to over 1,000. Its population declined to 50 in the early 90s due to uncontrolled hunting.
