Region pushes ahead with effort to protect nature while helping people
Ecological protection efforts in the Tibet autonomous region have presented nomadic herdsmen with a perplexing challenge: what to do when Tibetan wild donkeys are competing for sparse pasture with domesticated yaks.
It's an issue nomads in the region's highest and least-populated county, Tsonyi, have had to grapple with recently, with relocation being part of the solution. It's also a testament to the regional government's efforts and achievements in protecting the environment and wild animals.
