The Beast In The Clouds by Nathalia Holt

In 1928, Theodore Roosevelt’s sons led a scientific expedition into the Himalayas and Tibetan borderlands to search for the elusive panda. Facing extreme terrain, brutal weather, illness, and banditry, they documented a disappearing natural world while collecting specimens and observations that helped introduce the animal and its habitat to Western science. The book blends exploration, natural history, and the challenges of early conservation efforts.
