Shocking Video: Tourists Shamefully Chase Tibetan Wild Ass in Ladakh
There are instances when tourists invade animals' territories without considering the consequences. One such shocking incident unfolded in Ladakh, where tourists were seen chasing Tibetan wild asses, displaying a blatant disregard for the well-being of these magnificent creatures.
This behaviour is disgraceful and highlights the urgent need to foster respect for animals and their habitats.

The video captures the distressing scene of a car chasing a group of Tibetan wild ass across a dry plain in Ladakh. The dust rising from the speeding vehicle adds to the chaos, as the terrified animals frantically run for safety.
The footage shows at least six to seven wild asses, visibly scared and vulnerable, desperately trying to escape the intrusion on their habitat.
The behaviour exhibited by these tourists is not only shocking but also deeply concerning. Invading animal territories disrupts their natural patterns, causes stress, and can lead to physical harm.
Animals rely on their territories for food, shelter, and breeding, and any disturbance can have long-lasting effects on their survival.
