EssaysAbout the Author
The writing group of this book is mainly composed of journalists and writers who have long paid attention to China's ecological environment. During the northbound migration process of the Asian elephants in Yunnan, they either "chased" the elephants and collected authentic materials on the frontline or wrote the press to support these "model elephants" in the rear. Based on rich and real material, they compiled and published a series of books including Travel Notes of Wild Elephants in Yunnan, Cute Elephants Love Yunnan, and Travel Notes of the Short Trunks.
