Herdsmen at the source of the Yellow River took close-up photos of a large-scale Tibetan wild donkey population for the first time

China News Agency, Xining, November 20th (Sun Rui and Qiu Shuai) "Two days ago, on my way to the countryside, I met such a large-scale Tibetan donkey group for the first time.
I was really lucky, so I hurried to record with a camera.
It is not easy to get down

Maduo, which means "the source of the Yellow River" in Tibetan, is located in the south of Qinghai Province, northwest of the Guoluo Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, in the core hinterland of the Sanjiangyuan National Nature Reserve.
It is known as "the source of the Yellow River and the county of a thousand lakes".

.

The Tibetan wild donkey is a national first-class protected animal in China.
The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is a unique ungulate species that resembles a mule produced by a cross between a donkey and a horse.
Because the tail is slightly like a horsetail, some people call it "wild horse" and live at 4000 meters.
It is the only wild odd-hoofed animal on the plateau in the high-cold desert environment up to 5500 meters
.

"The herders' ability to photograph such a large population of Tibetan wild donkeys at close range shows that the habitat of wild animals is complete and systematically protected.
Wild animals have enough living space and become a paradise for wild animals worthy of the name

Ma Gui said that in recent years, Maduo County has stepped up its efforts to protect the ecological environment, taking the construction of national parks as its starting point, and actively providing a good living environment for the inhabitation and reproduction of various wild animal populations such as Tibetan wild donkeys, black-necked cranes, and white-lipped deer.
The number of wild animal populations in the county has been increasing continuously
