Xue Dandan interacts with a male milu deer at the Dafeng Milu National Nature Reserve in east China's Jiangsu Province, June 7, 2025.
Xue Dandan, 35, is the head of the security department of Dafeng Milu National Nature Reserve in Jiangsu. After graduating in 2016, she devoted herself to patrol management and public science education of milu deer in the reserve. When she first arrived, she knew little about the species. Over the past nine years, Xue has immersed herself in relevant materials, consulted experts and scholars, and conducted regular field patrols with colleagues. While constantly enriching her knowledge on the species, she has also translated professional knowledge of milu deer protection into accessible information for the public.
Through daily work, Xue has developed a deep bond with milu deer. She helped villagers rescue a milu deer trapped by nets, and also participated in building an intelligent platform, which monitors the biodiversity of milu deer habitats. "The reserve is like my home and the milu deer are my family," she said.
In 1986, Dafeng Milu National Nature Reserve introduced 39 milu deer from Britain. In recent years, focusing on promoting harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature, the reserve has cultivated salt-alkali-tolerant plants and managed invasive plants. As the ecosystem improving, the population of milu deer has steadily increased. As of June 2024, the reserve is home to over 8,200 milu deer, including a wild population of more than 3,500 milu deer.
For Xue, the ultimate goal of her job is to restore the wild milu deer population. She and her colleagues will continue their efforts in relocation conservation, sending the species to suitable habitats. Xue believes that this is an essential path towards achieving between humanity and nature. (Xinhua/Wang Xiao)
