Bar-Headed Geese Fly Across the Himalayas to China's Lowest Point, Ejin Lake
The Himalayas are perpetually covered in snow, earning them the title of 'Roof of the World.' Nine of the world's highest peaks are located there. However, several bird species can cross the average altitude of approximately 6000 meters of the Himalayas, and one representative is the Bar-headed Goose.

Xinjiang's Ejin Lake, with a lake surface altitude below sea level by 154 meters, is the lowest point on the Chinese mainland. I have personally conducted scientific research at Ejin Lake and repeatedly observed the silhouettes of Bar-headed Geese.

Bar-headed Geese can fly across the 8848-meter Mount Qomolangma. They can also survive in the sandstorms of Ejin Lake, supplementing their food there. I especially admire the survival ability of this bird species. Their survival ability is too strong. Thank you for your attention to Xinjiang geography encyclopedia. I will provide you with the most valuable geography encyclopedia knowledge.
