Amur long-tailed goral (Naemorhedus caudatus raddeanus) This species once inhabited
the mountainous regions between the lower reaches of the Amur River and the Yellow Sea.
Today scarcely a thousand specimens can be found in a few fragmented habitats scattered
over the Sikhote-Alini mountains, Korean peninsula and north-eastern China. The growing
impact of human activity has sped up the decline of this rare species. Gorals are deft
climbers. They feed on grasses, shoots, acorns, etc. Usually they stay in the same area and
do not easily undertake any migration.
