Imagine walking through the silent pines of north China's Inner Mongolia… when suddenly an infrared camera lights up, capturing a brown bear scratching its back on an old stump 🐻.
Located on the northwestern slopes of the Greater Khingan Mountains, the Erguna National Nature Reserve has been the site of a wildlife comeback in 2025. Conservation teams set up hidden infrared cameras this year, and the footage is amazing!
Sables are creeping along age-old animal trails 🦦, while flocks of mallards splash in the reserve's frozen ponds 🦆. These snapshots show nature at its best, and reveal how protective measures are helping animals thrive.
Thanks to ongoing habitat restoration—like replanting native trees and protecting wetland areas—Erguna's animals are feeling right at home. Rangers and scientists are studying the footage to understand migration routes, breeding habits, and more.
For young travelers and wildlife lovers, Erguna is a reminder that when we give nature space to heal, it responds with spectacular scenes. Cool, right? 😎
