Critters of western Tibet

We really lucked out during our trip, seeing all manner of animals great and small, from the more or less domesticated to the decidedly not! They're presented here in no particular order in a variety of places...
Some of these are apparently rare sights: the Himalayan goral (mountain goats - can you see all five in the picture?), the kiang (Tibetan wild asses), the wolf, the black-necked cranes, the goa (Tibetan gazelle).
