Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park 1: Busy Rainforest

A group of young people came together from all over China in one place: Yinggeling National Nature Reserve on southern China's Hainan island. They delved into the woods armed with knowledge about wild animals and plants that they learned in college. The rainforest didn't go easy on them and some struggled with the decision to spend their youthful days on this remote piece of land. 

Now, as the nation plans to coordinate conservation efforts and build national parks across the country, Yinggeling faces new opportunities and challenges. 

What are these young people doing in Yinggeling? And as front-line workers, what's on their mind about wildlife protection especially as the country is still combating COVID-19?

For people who have been working in national parks, what's on their minds? What do they expect from the discussions in Beijing? How do the experts and NPC deputies respond to their concerns?
