At one time the Temminck's Tragopan was the most common of the genus in captivity. Thought by many to be the most beautiful of the Tragopans, they are the nearest in coloring to the Satyr. The facial skin is vivid blue and, as with other Tragopans when displaying, the lappets and inflated skin horns are striking.
