Self-preservation is the first law of nature

I took this photo in Wangdue Phodrang, Bhutan. There were a lot of cows. I don't have so many opportunities to see cows this close to me, so it was kinda interesting experience. I've heard that some people visit Bhutan to see takins or yaks, but from my point of view, cows were ubiquitous, but the others were not. I saw a few takins in Thimphu, but I couldn't see yaks during my stay in Bhutan. A Bhutanese locals told me that yaks live in cold places, so during summer they go to a higher altitude to avoid the hot temperature. Bhutan is located at the end of the Himalayas, so they know the drill. Self-preservation is the first law of nature is a really good proverb.
