A wonderful wild life
A Chinese park ranger in Tanzania shares the drama of the animal kingdom in his new book, Xing Yi reports.
Camping along the habitat of crocodiles, making friends with lions, and hunting with the aboriginal African Hadzabe people ... . To nature lovers, Chen Jianxing has the most ideal job in the world - working at the Tanzania National Parks administration, promoting and protecting the African country's wildlife resources. It all started from a childhood dream, as Chen describes in his new book Into Tanzania (Dao Tan Sang).
When Chen was a little boy, he wished that one day he could go to Tanzania and see "real" lions. His dream came true in 2006, when the 36-year-old Chinese man from Wuhan in Central China's Hubei province first worked at the Chinese embassy in Tanzania. Three years later, in order to get closer to animals, Chen joined the Tanzania National Parks.
