Antelopes breeding well after moving to Qinghai

Three Tibetan antelopes that were moved from Hoh Xil to an animal protection station in Qinghai province's Tiebujia grassland three years ago are now breeding well.

Zhao Xinquan, director of the Northwest Institute of Plateau Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, called it a significant development that could lead to the transfer of other animals, such as Tibetan gazelles.
