Prologue

Part I. The intersection of continents : Beringia's silent bestiary. Motherless children in black and white

Before now

Beyond Arctic wind

Where worlds collide

Muskoxen in ice

When the snow turns to rain

The ethereal yak

Birthplace of angry gods

To kill a saiga

Victims of fashion

In the valley of Takin

Pavilions where snow dragons hide

Below the margins of glaciers

The ethereal yak

Birthplace of angry gods

Gobi ghosts, Himalayan shadows

Counting for conservation

To kill a saiga

Victims of fashion

In the valley of Takin
