Hey there, animal lovers! ๐จ๐ณ China has just opened a brand-new wildlife center in Jilin Province to help protect some of the world’s most amazing big cats: tigers and leopards! ๐ฏ๐
The Northeast China Tiger and Leopard Culture International Communication Center (that’s a big name for a big mission!) is all about showing the world how important it is to save these incredible animals. They’ve gathered rare and cool videos of tigers, leopards, and other wildlife from their high-tech cameras in the nearby national park.
Guess what? They’re sharing these awesome clips on social media so kids and teens like you can see and learn about these majestic creatures! ๐๐ฑ
You Zhiqiang, the manager of the media company helping out, said they want to make a strong “cultural brand” for the tigers and leopards. That means they’ll be creating fun and interesting ways to learn about these animals, like videos, stories, and maybe even games! ๐ฎ
The Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park was officially set up in 2021 and is now home to around 70 wild Manchurian tigers and 80 Amur leopards. That’s a big deal because these animals are super rare and endangered! ๐ฒ๐พ
With over 28,000 infrared cameras (whoa! ๐ฅ) and smart technologies like AI, they’re able to keep an eye on the animals to make sure they’re safe and healthy. They’re even working on new ways to recognize each tiger by its unique stripes, kind of like a fingerprint! ๐
Manchurian tigers and Amur leopards mainly live in northeastern China and parts of Russia. They’re some of the most endangered animals on the planet and play a big role in the forest ecosystem. By protecting them, we’re also protecting many other plants and animals in the forest! ๐ณ๐
Isn’t it awesome how technology and teamwork can help save these magnificent creatures? Maybe one day, you’ll visit China and see them in the wild! Until then, keep an eye out for their amazing videos online! ๐ป๐
