Himalayan langurs are scarce in China, primarily inhabiting forested areas in Medog, Yadong, and Gyirong, in southern Xizang. They are classified as first-class protected wild animals in China. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of the ecological environment in Yadong County, Xigaze City, Xizang, langurs often descend from the mountains to interact closely with residents and tourists, becoming a unique scenic attraction.
