Have you never heard of the song "The story of the red-crowned crane"? It is about a girl called Xu Xiujuan.

She enjoyed taking care of the baby cranes. If a bird became sick, she took good care of it and stayed with it very until it was strong enough to fly again.
她喜欢照顾小丹顶鹤。如果一只鸟生病了，她照顾它，并每天和它呆在一起，直到它足够强壮再次飞起来了。
In September 1987, one of the birds went missing. The workers in the nature reserve looked everywhere, but no one could find it. Xiujuan was very worried.
