Description

Temminck’s tragopan (Tragopan temminckii) is a high-altitude pheasant species native to the eastern Himalayas and forests of China. Known for its vivid coloration and display rituals, the male tragopan features striking blue facial skin, crimson plumage, and intricate white spotting—used to impress mates during elaborate courtship dances. These birds thrive in dense montane forests and feed on berries, shoots, and insects. Revered for their rarity and beauty, tragopans represent the vibrant biodiversity of Himalayan ecosystems. This mount captures the natural grace of the species, placed in a lush green base inspired by its native understory.
