Tibet is located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. As a vast area existing on the roof of the world, remote traffic conditions have kept it almost completely isolated from the outside world for more than a thousand years. In addition, the harsh natural conditions here, such as high altitude, high-temperature difference, hypoxia, severe cold, permafrost, and other factors, make the crops suitable for survival on this land few and small, and the number is very small. Restricted by these unfavorable factors, Tibetan monks still use highland barley and tsampa as their main food sources in daily life. Without vegetables and grains, some monks have begun to eat limited meat. Natural conditions can no longer allow them to eat. Make another choice. This is the original intention of Tibetan Buddhist monks to eat meat.
