New Trip Report: Sichuan Mammal Sightings, 2020
A friend from South Africa sent me some these notes about mammal sightings in Sichuan that might be helpful...
Thanks for the info Stuart and congrats on the successful sighting. The Malayan Tapir is definitely high on my list.
Hi Alan, I think a visit in the next couple of weeks would present a very high chance of success. Anyway, good luck !
Well done Stuart! Do you know if Gaur are regular there now… I don’t remember hearing about them being seen from the hide before.
Hi Jon, The rangers at the station near the hide commented that gaur had been seen there. From the animals behaviour, I would guess it was a frequent visitor as it showed no signs of stress when it was spotlighted and stayed around the hide all night.
