In a rainforest showdown that would make MacGyver proud, Bao Weiming faced an impossible task: keep a starving baby elephant alive with zero elephant milk. Enter the ultimate hack – goat’s milk.
Meet Longlong – the 1,000kg living proof of Bao’s ingenuity. This trunk-swinging success story is just one chapter in the 23-year journey of China’s real-life Dr. Dolittle, who’s traded white coats for muddy boots in Yunnan Province’s jungles.
From sleepless nights tracking herds to moments of self-doubt, Bao’s career mirrors the emotional rollercoaster of his favorite K-dramas. But his ‘never give up’ attitude – fueled by baby elephant cuddles and conservation wins – keeps him going. “Every rescued calf writes a new future for Asian elephants,” says the vet-turned-eco-warrior.
With only 300 Asian elephants left in the Chinese mainland, Bao’s work isn’t just heartwarming – it’s species-saving. Who needs superhero movies when we’ve got real-life wildlife warriors?
