The Visitors Guide to Mammals of Sagarmatha National Park and Buffer Zone is a brief guide to the mammals most likely to be encountered in Sagarmatha National Park and Buffer Zone located in the Solukhumbu district of eastern Nepal. This guidebook is intended to allow the national and international visitors coming to the Sagarmatha National Park and Buffer Zone to have a richer experience of the natural surroundings of the place by learning about the types of mammals found in the park, their distribution, habits and their significance and threats to local inhabitants. Nowhere else in Nepal does one find such biodiversity and rich mammal fauna. This region houses a number of endangered species such as snow leopard and musk deer as well as other commonly sighted species such as the Himalayan black bear, common langur monkeys and tahr (wild goats).
This year marks 40 years of establishment of the Sagarmatha National Park since 1976 and I am very excited to be publishing the "Visitors Guide to Mammals" of Sag arm at ha National Park and Buffer Zone on this occasion.
