Qinghai–Tibet Plateau study traces evolution of terrestrial animals across three distinct regions
A new study has pieced together the evolutionary history of terrestrial animals on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP), offering a comprehensive picture of how the distinctive fauna of the "Third Pole" took shape over millions of…
