About the book:
When we admire the beauty of the wondrous creatures of the natural world, do we ever consider that the environment they live in is facing an unprecedented level of intrusion?
As the wild animals that inhabit the great forests are ever faster walking towards extinction, let us stretch out a hand of love to attempt to halt their footsteps.
Hu Donglin has buried himself in the depths of Changbai Shan for twenty years. In his heartfelt portrayal of the forest inhabitants, be they gorals, bears, sables, foxes, weasels or nutcrackers, he has revealed for us some of the mysteries of the deepest forest. Through his words, he has slowed down their march to annihilation.
