双语说河南|济源“猴保姆”深山守猴30年
Every year, tens of thousands of tourists are attracted to the Wulongkou National Macaque Nature Reserve in Jiyuan city of Henan province by more than 3,000 macaques there. Since 1991, under the care of Kuang San'ao, its controllable number of macaques has increased from more than 100 to today's over 3,000 while controllable population from 1 to 16.
山不在高,有猴则名。在济源市五龙口国家级猕猴自然保护区,有3000余只猕猴活跃其间,每年都有数以万计的游客冲着这些“大自然的精灵”慕名来到景区。1991年至今,在他的悉心照料下,这里的猕猴可控数量从最初的100余只增加到目前的3000多只,可控种群由原来的1群增加到16群。
Kuang San'ao is locally known as the macaques' head, king, babysitter, etc., for his devotion to their protection.
说起这一切,不得不提及为此默默付出的“猴保姆”匡三傲。“猴司令”“太行猴王”“猴保姆”这些被众人赋予的名号,背后凝聚着匡三傲对猕猴保护付出的心血。
Kuang San'ao comes from a family that has been training monkeys for three generations. His father Kuang Shuming made a living by performing monkey shows in the past and later started working at the Wulongkou National Macaque Nature Reserve. Several years ago, to take care of his father, Kuang San'ao went back from Guangdong and replaced his father at the nature reserve.
Over the years, Kuang San'ao has fostered a deep bond with the macaques. Now, out of love, his son Kuang Zhenjing has also joined his team after college graduation.
Kuang San'ao has treated the macaques like his children for 30 years. Different from others' brutal monkey training methods, he never beats the macaques but still works harmoniously with them.
Kuang San'ao always goes out early and comes home late since sometimes he has to travel more than 65 kilometers per day to feed the macaques or conduct relevant investigations.
When the macaques struggle to find enough food to survive the winter, Kuang San'ao and his partners have to travel far away to deliver foods to them. It is not rare that temperature at the top of the mountain usually drops to minus 10 degrees Celsius. Besides, some slopes are covered with shrubs and some even have no roads. Faced with such a situation, he would take out his sickle and blaze a new way by himself. His trouser are usually soaked with snow after that, with scratches on his hands and face.
Kuang San'ao has already been accustomed to the Taihang Mountains featuring cliffs. He could not remember how many times he had fallen down and gotten injured. "There are some roads that only we can deal with and that only we will."
In winter, the genial sunshine makes people feel comfortable. With his whistling, different macaques are running down the hills amid the cheers and applause from tourists.
Perhaps, this is the greatest compliment to Kuang San'ao.
