Jackson, R.
Aboriginal hunting in west Nepal with reference to Musk deer _Moschus moschiferus_ and snow leopard_ Panthera uncia_
1979  Biological Conservation (16): 63-72

Observations were made on the hunting of musk deer _Moschus moschiferus moschiferus_, blue sheep _Pseudois nayaur_ and snow leopard _Panthera uncia_ by Bhotia tribesmen during a survey of snow leopard populations in the remote Langu Valley of West Nepal. Exploitation of wildlife provides an important source of income to some villagers following pervasive economic and political changes in the region.
