Liu Baoli was on the mountain year-round, so the most likely time for him to have discovered the giant panda was during a patrol.
So they could definitely add the patrol routes his team frequented in '09 to their plan and retrace them.
Shen Xin had come up with the entire plan, so naturally, Chang Zhigang and the others had no objections.
The plan was set in motion on the 16th day of the first lunar month, and on the 22nd—January 26th—Walnut finally set off for the Baishui River in a dedicated vehicle.
The team in Wudu had already made all the necessary preparations for their arrival.
After the truck arrived, it didn't stop, heading straight for Liujiaping Town.
The team from Jin City was also in position.
The team was led by the director of the base's Research Lab for Endangered Wildlife Ecology and Reintroduction.
