Monitoring ramped up at wildlife park
Tiger, leopard reserve installs system to track animals after biting incident
Over 28,000 infrared cameras and more than 4,000 pieces of supporting equipment have been installed at the Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park, forming a Sky-to-Earth monitoring system to protect the wild animals and people.
The park, which was formally established in 2021 after a trial phase in August 2017, is the only protected area in China where Siberian tigers and Amur leopards can breed in the wild.
It covers an area of 14,100 square kilometers across the provinces of Jilin and Heilongjiang.
