Revised Action Plan for the Great Bustard in Asia - Technical Series No. 48

Although the Great Bustard was once common and widespread in Asia, today likely only approximately 500-1000 Western Great Bustards (Otis tarda tarda) and 1300-2200 Eastern Great Bustards (Otis tarda dybowskii) remain on the continent. The Western Great Bustard persists in larger numbers in the Iberian Peninsula, Central Europe, and the Lower Volga River Region of the Russian Federation.

Fact Sheet on Sichuan Takin Migration

Elusive and rare, the Sichuan takin is one of the world’s least-studied migratory ungulates. Initial research has revealed seasonal movement patterns and habitat preferences for this mysterious species. In Sichuan, one of the species’ remaining population centers, takin persist in a mosaic of protected areas established to protect the giant panda. There, they thrive in mature forests with bamboo understory.

Fact Sheet on Tibetan Antelope Migration

The Tibetan antelope shows a unique migration strategy among the ungulates of the Tibetan Plateau. They are partially migratory: Some populations make longdistance migrations moving 300-400 km annually, while others remain resident year-round. Only the females migrate within the migratory populations, while most males remain on their collective winter range year-round. Tibetan antelope migration is synchronized with their reproduction cycle.
