A woman and her friends were lucky enough to e wild Amur tiger, an endangered species, for two days during the New Year holiday. They spotted the rare animals while driving on mountain-climbing trips in Hunchun, Northeast China’s Jilin province.
The woman, surnamed Zhao, was driving with two friends when they first saw a cub tiger near the Sandaogou village of Hunchun on Jan. 1st, CCTV News reported. Zhao said the young tiger looked chubby and cute. When the tiger saw them, it turned and ran. “We wished to e a wild tiger once, and I didn’t expect our wish would come true on the first day of the new year!” Zhao said.
The next day, when Zhao and her friends drove to where they saw the young tiger a day before, they found an even bigger one. Compared with the cub, the adult did not rush to r
un away after eing their car but sat there and watched them for a moment before it “walked slowly into the woods”, Zhao said.
“How lucky they are!” many netizens commented. The year 2022 is the Year of the Tiger in the Chine lunar calendar.
According to reports, local residents in Hunchun have come across wild Amur tigers more than 30 times since the beginning of 2021.

The 33-year-old Australian is actually a student in international relations completing his PhD through Griffith University. He came to Beijing for cooperative rearch at Peking University less than two years ago. Such an academic life was just added color with a chance offered by the cultural exchanges project, “I’m in China”.
Bradley was lucky to win the most “likes” for his photo story about his life in China and became one of 20 winners to visit locations after a global recruitment (招募) by the projec
t this summer. All the winners’ experiences were filmed to produce a reality show, My Chine Working Day, which will be broadcast by mid-September.
Bradley was chon to work as a recreational manager for a Chine wedding. The film crew took the 20 winners to many “amazing sites” and the staff at the resort taught them a lot about how to “show modern Chine traits (特色) while still keeping traditional customs“”, Bradley said. “I would have to say two things stick out as the most memorable: the helicopter ride and talking with the staff at the hotel about how they organize weddings here in China,” he said. That was Bradley’s first time to be in a helicopter, and he was too absorbed with the view of the beautiful coastline.
“I think it is so important to show other Australians the different sceneries in China. I think so many Australians, when they think about China, they will imagine the historical sites of Beijing and the exciting things to e in Shanghai but have no idea about other beautiful places like Sanya or the many other places people have been taken to in this TV ries,” Bradley said
