Biodiversity surveys help Jeling draw nature lovers

The proximity to a well-preserved primitive forest, improved infrastructure and the local people's openness to new ideas have all played an important role in attracting researchers and conservationists to Jeling village in Metog county, Xizang autonomous region. Some have not only come to visit, but also have opted to stay long term for their work.

Wei Chunyue is one of them.

After getting her master's degree in the United States, Wei, a lifelong nature enthusiast, spent a year working with an international conservation organization based in the US.
