Welcome to Project Noah, Paldane Chuying,
I hope you like the site as much we do; there are many features you can explore:
I invite you to go to http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you will find the purpose and “rules” of Project Noah.
There is a blog http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we post articles from spotters with special insight into different organisms.
There are also the chats for help with identification, and to comment on your own and others’ spottings.
Look at the global and local missions to put your spottings into:http://www.projectnoah.org/missions
Enjoy yourself here, see you around!

Great shot of social interactions! As keystone species, it is indeed the most important species on the Tibetan plateau. Please add it to the 'Mammals of Qinghai, China' (http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/6780...) mission, together with any other relevant photograph you upload to Project Noah.

I got very curious about your Description,"The most important mammal in the world found on the Tibetan Plateau", Would you mind elaborating on it. Thank you, I would appreciate it.
