Features: The story of life, survival, and nature about the giant panda Huzi will change people's perception of giant pandas. On August 19, 1992, at an altitude of 1,950 meters on the southern slope of the Qinling Mountains, the giant panda Huzi was born. Unlike other pandas, Huzi was the only wild giant panda ever born that was tracked and studied by humans from birth. The material for this book comes from the scientific research notes of Professor Pan Wenshi, a renowned animal and professor at the School of Life Sciences at Peking University, known as the "Panda Father." Over 13 years of tracking wild giant pandas, Professor Pan recorded the growth details of Huzi from birth to adulthood, restoring the true survival status of a wild giant panda and inspiring deep reflection on environmental ethics. Huzi is the only wild giant panda ever tracked and studied by humans from birth. It experienced the baptism of nature but also suffered the torment of "electric punishment" in the zoo. Fortunately, Huzi now lives freely in its natural habitat. According to scientific statistics, out of every 10 giant pandas, 1 is still kept in a zoo or breeding center. Through 17 years of field scientific research, the author Pan Wenshi has authentically recorded the unique lifestyle of giant pandas and their mysterious "social" structure. The passionate text and precious wild giant panda photos will completely change your impression of giant pandas and also inspire deep reflection on environmental ethics.
