During this year’s Spring Festival, the administration of Fanjing Mountain in southwest China’s Guizhou Province opened its golden snub-nosed monkey research center to the public for the first time, offering visitors a unique experience amid the festive celebrations.
The Guizhou golden snub-nosed monkey, a critically endangered species and a first-class nationally protected animal in China, is often referred to as the “only child of the Earth.” It is found exclusively in the Fanjing Mountain National Nature Reserve. Now, visitors can observe these rare primates up close at the research center, gaining insight into their habits and behaviors.
Zhao Jing, a staff member at the center, explained, “We are open to the public at designated times throughout the Spring Festival holiday until the upcoming Lantern Festival. A dedicated guide has also been arranged to provide educational sessions on the monkeys’ living habits.”
