"In the summer, our daily work is patrolling and monitoring for six to eight hours — up to 300 kilometers per day," Tharchen was quoted as saying by Tibet Daily.

He recalled the unusual rescue of a Tibetan wild ass in 2020 after his team was informed by local herdsmen. The animal was stuck deep in a swamp, but they were able to pull it out with ropes.
