Improved conditions
Now, working conditions in the reserve are changing dramatically as China bolsters efforts to improve conservation of biodiversity.
Although Peng and her colleagues still have to patrol the reserve to conduct routine observations and surveys, the frequency of the treks has fallen as a result of the use of smart equipment.
In addition to three unmanned aerial vehicles, used especially for monitoring, the protected area now has 46 sets of infrared cameras, according to the management office.
The rangers are also spared the effort of carrying the sprayers because drones are now used to spray the reserve with pesticide.
