My name‘s Li Wei,
but I’m also known as
the “Panda Nanny of Wolong”. As you can probably guess, I take care of the pandas living in Sichuan‘s Wolong National Nature Reserve. As well
as looking after these
incredible animals, I talk to
visitors and post updates
on social media. I hope
that one day, more people can join me in taking care of the pandas.
When people ask
me what I do, I tell them that I’m a “spiderman”.
For me, a day at work involves climbing up and down the cliffs of Mount Yuntai’s Red Stone Gorge. With a rope tied around
my waist, I clear rubbish left by tourists. The job isn’t without its risks, but I enjoy it. I’m very proud
that I can help conserve the environment.
