When we went to Bhutan we realized that the country is filled with the greatest mountain range Himalayas. India and Bhutan both the countries share the Himalayas. When we saw the Takin we understood it had the adaptive capacity to live in the hills and feed on the leaves of alpine trees. It is the national animal of the country.

It is a national animal of Bhutan. I doubt if these are found here in India.

How is Bhutan overall? I have read it's a beautiful country, with no pollution and full of trees and plants. It's on my wish list to visit once in my life.
