Luckily, many reserves have been built by the government and a number of experts have been employed to inspect their health. On my second stop, a strong elephant appeared in front of me, who said they were in danger and might die out two weeks ago. However, now local farmers stop hunting them and begin to protect them from any dangers for some reasons. At last, a monkey said hello to me from a tree and talked to me for a while.
