PALLAS'S CAT AND WILDLIFE EXPEDITION TO CHANGTHANG LADAKH

Pallas's Cat (Otocolobus manul) or Manul called Ribilik / Tak Shan or Sukthung locally is one of the very rare small wild cats found in Ladakh, India. Of the three wild cats found in Ladakh, Manul is the smallest and most difficult to spot. Their numbers are unknown and no much data about their habitats and numbers are available. The other two wild cats of Ladakh are Eurasian Lynx (lynx lynx) and Snow Leopard (Uncia panthera).

Wildlife Photographers visit Ladakh, specially Hanley/ Hanle or Anley Basin Wildlife Reserve in eastern Ladakh to try their luck. Wildlife tourism in Ladakh is on the rise and very soon, Ladakh will be one of the hot destinations for wildlife of the himalayas like Tibetan Wolf/ Himalayan Wolf, Tibetan Sand Fox, Himalayan Red Fox, etc. Ladakh, especially Hanley in eastern Ladakh / Changthang is becoming a great destination of Pallas's Cat photographers.
