Tibetan‌ Kids Explore the Wonders of Nature at Hangzhou Wildlife World

On September 23, 44 teachers‌ and students from ⁤Nagqu, ⁤Tibet, who ⁣participated in‌ the Hangzhou-aided Tibet “Gazelle⁢ Project” – the second batch of youth learning and ‌exchange groups in Senyi ​District in 2024, came to the Wildlife World in Fuyang, Hangzhou,​ to observe various animals up ​close and have an intimate⁣ contact with nature.

African elephants, long-tailed lemurs, gibbons, red pandas…⁢ Seeing so many animals, the Tibetan children‌ were​ very⁢ excited. “Come and‌ see the red panda’s performance, it’s ‍so cute when it swings and⁣ pulls the rings!” “African elephants are so⁤ big, they stretch their​ trunks⁢ into the river to​ drink ⁤water!” “I learned a lot of ​knowledge, it turns out⁣ that apes don’t have tails, ​but monkeys do.”

The⁢ Parrot Square, ‌Swan Lake, Cute ⁣Pet Park, Chinese National Treasure Area, African Tribe… in the Wildlife Park are full ⁣of laughter and joy ⁢from⁢ the Tibetan children. “In Tibet, we⁤ have many yaks, sheep, wolves and⁣ grizzly bears. ⁢If you want to see ⁢other ⁤animals,⁣ you have to take a bus to the ⁤zoo in Lhasa. Today, the children are very⁢ excited to see⁢ so many animals at once,”​ said Baima Wangmu, a ‍teacher at the Second Primary School of Dasa⁤ Township, Senyi District.

In‌ school, teachers have been⁢ encouraging ‍students‍ to go out and see ⁢more. ⁢”Such opportunities to‍ ‘get out of the house’ are precious. Our⁣ children are very lucky,” added ⁣Baima⁤ Wangmu.
