| The Tibetan antelope or chiru (Pantholops hodgsonii) (Tibetan: , Wylie: gtsod, pronounced [ts]; Chinese: ; pinyin: zànglíngyáng) is a medium-sized bovid native to the Tibetan plateau. Fewer than 150,000 mature individuals are left in the wild, but the population is currently thought to be increasing. In recent years, they have become endangered due to poaching. They are hunted for their soft and warm wool which is usually obtained after death. This wool is known as shahtoosh and is used to weave shawls. At present, international trade in their products is strictly prohibited. Recently, its IUCN Red List of Threatened Species ranking was raised to Near Threatened. |
