He used his life to protect every inch of land in Hoh Xil and fought tirelessly against Tibetan antelope poachers. He is called "the patron saint of no man's land in Hoh Xil".

There are four routes to beautiful Tibet, but the safest, most reliable and shortest one is the Qinghai-Tibet Highway. Although it is not as magnificent as Landscape Avenue G3 18, it passes through the Kunlun Mountain Pass mentioned in Ghost Blowing Lights.

As long as you pass through the Kunlun Mountain Pass, everyone will think of Jason Sonandajie, whose name has become the belief of Hoh Xil, and the film "Hoh Xil" based on him has also aroused great repercussions in society.

At present, a statue of Sonam Street stands at the Kunlun Mountain Pass at an altitude of 4,768 meters. Many passing tourists and patrol members got off the bus and presented Hada in memory of the pioneer who died to protect the Tibetan antelope.

Sister Sonam's hometown is Hoh Xil, which is a vast no-man's land with no end in sight. It is also the source of the Yangtze River, and it still retains its original landform after the formation of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

The unique geographical environment and extremely harsh climatic conditions also endow it with unique species diversity: more than 230 kinds of wild animals and 202 kinds of wild plants, together with ancient landforms, constitute an amazing and most complex ecosystem.

From 65438 to 0954, Sonam Da Jie was born in an ordinary herdsman family. After graduating from college, he went to work in no man's land.

At that time, Hoh Xil was the darkest moment in the past century, illegally mining and poaching Tibetan antelopes. In just two or three years, the number of Tibetan antelopes has decreased from 200,000 to less than 20,000.

He won't allow his hometown to be destroyed by such a "devil". In order to protect this pure land and protect the last home of wildlife in Hoh Xil, he must act immediately.

The 1 th mountain patrol entered the no-man's land in Hoh Xil. Although the team members made full preparations, the hardships of the process still stunned all the mountain patrol members.

In order to finish the patrol task as soon as possible, we only sleep for 4 hours every day. If we are hungry, we will have a bite of dry food. If we are thirsty, we will grab a handful of snow and travel during the day. Everyone sleeps in the car at night.

Seeing this scene, the patrolman in their eyes was in tears and immediately chased out. They will never stop until they catch these "demons".

In the past two years, Sister Sonam led a team 12 to patrol the no-man's land and seized 8 poaching gangs.

/kloc-at the beginning of 0/0, it was the last time that Sister Sonam entered Hoh Xil. I don't know if it's a hunch or a reminder of fate. He deliberately went to the county magistrate and the public security bureau to borrow pistols and other weapons for self-defense.

65438+1October 15, the team members continued to patrol forward and came to the valley of Quanshui Valley. Many tire tracks were found on the wide riverbed. Poachers must have passed by here not long ago and probably moved nearby.

That night, they captured 12 people, seized all kinds of weapons and a car full of Tibetan antelope skins.

Among these poachers, one was shot in the thigh and kept moaning, and another had high altitude pulmonary edema and kept coughing. At this rate, they won't live long.

Sister Sonam had to choose two people in a group of five to send the patient away first, leaving the best weapon to one of the escorts.

Many poachers were caught, and only 18 people were left after being sent away, which also laid the groundwork for the subsequent team members to be ambushed.

Poachers are also looking for opportunities to escape. According to the statement of those who were later arrested:

Unfortunately, Sister Sonam kept vigil all night, so the poachers didn't have a chance to do it.

The house will leak water on rainy days. When Sonam Dajie was driving to the west bank of Sun Lake, two front wheels of his truck had flat tires.

Because of carelessness, two of them were ambushed by poachers.

Sister Sonam felt very bad after getting off the bus. With the sound of "beep beep beep beep", after several fights, Sonam's elder sister, who was shot in the thigh, was outnumbered, lying in the snow at MINUS 40 degrees, unable to fight back.

It was finally frozen into an ice sculpture. When it was discovered, it was still in the position of shooting and pulling the bolt.

1996, in order to commemorate the great contribution of Sonam Dajie, a wildlife protection station named after him was established.

Always reminding people of the awareness of protecting the natural environment and paying tribute to heroes has also become a landscape on the Qinghai-Tibet line.

If you also pass by the Qinghai-Tibet Line, you must get off at Kunlun Mountain Pass to remember the statue and pay tribute to the hero Sonam.

Shahtoosh, the ceiling of shawl world, is known as the king of cashmere and the king of fiber.

Shahtoosh's pronunciation comes from Persian and originated in Kashmir. In Tang Xuanzang's travels, it is also recorded that the texture is as light as yarn.

After a long period of evolution, the Tibetan antelope has completely adapted to the living environment above 5 thousand meters above sea level.

It is this special geographical environment that makes them grow special wool, which is not only light but also very warm, which brings them extinction.

65438+In 1960s, shahtoosh was brought to Europe by a Frenchman. Because of its soft texture and high price, it is very popular in the upper class in Europe, and things are rare and expensive, and it has gradually become a symbol of the status and identity of the upper class.

Jade bracelets, similar to those in ancient China, are regarded as family heirlooms and handed down from generation to generation from mother-in-law to daughter-in-law.

Shahtoosh is made of cashmere under the armpit of Tibetan antelope, which is only 1/5 the thickness of human hair. A shawl is about100g, so it is very light and soft, and you can wear a ring.

When shahtoosh was introduced to Europe, it was very popular among ladies in the upper class because of its lightness, softness and warmth.

A shawl can be sold for $50,000, which is much more valuable than Huang Jingui, but it is a kind of beauty with bloody smell.

Tibetan antelope hair is called "soft gold" by the industry for its high price. Tibetan antelope has been slaughtered by poachers for 98% and almost extinct.

At first, Europeans didn't know that the "shahtoosh" they bought came from ruthless killing, because the seller made up a lie: cashmere came from the natural hair removal of Tibetan antelope.

This lie was later exposed by a foreign naturalist.

Many lambs are still in the ewe's belly, and they have been mercilessly skinned, then the hair is taken away and the rest is discarded at will.

In the face of money and profiteering, poachers usually carry weapons and drive big trucks, and they can even snatch more than 1000 Tibetan antelope skins at a time.

Today, Hoh Xil is a national nature reserve, which also gives it more mysterious and magical colors.

It is also a land full of spirituality and faith. Behind these wild spirits, Tibetan antelope, Tibetan brown bear and bison are the fruits of the work of several generations of wildlife protectors in Hoh Xil.

Wild animals such as Tibetan antelope, Tibetan wild donkey and wild yak in the no-man's land have lived in this mysterious land from beginning to end and are the real owners of the no-man's land in Hoh Xil.
