Rao collected more than 100 samples of 20 species of frogs and six species of reptiles during the survey. Before he arrived in Nyingchi from Medog, however, he already started thinking about his fourth trip.

"I plan to conduct comparative research on tree frogs living at the same altitude of Mount Galongla and Mount Duoxiongla," he says.

"I caught a few samples of several species on Galongla, but collected only one of a same species on Duoxiongla. It is certainly not enough for research."

Liu thought the same.

"A mouse I caught in Medog might be a completely new species," he says.

"Once it is confirmed, I must come back for more samples."

"The end of a RAP survey often means the beginning of more research projects," Wang says.
