Our Shennongjia adventure just starts from this verdant green mountain.

There is a sign beside the Dalongtan Pond, reading “Field Site for the Research and Observation of Sichuan Snub-nosed Monkeys”. Here is China's first Snub-nosed Monkeys field research base, and the number of Snub-nosed Monkeys in Shennongjia has more than over 1300.

This lush woodland is the home of Snub-nosed Monkeys, which had been threatened with extinction because of excessive human activities, but now, they are protected well.

Visitors are asked to put on this camouflage uniforms when into the snub-nosed monkey research base.

The keepers call them to eat food, when hearing the orders, all the monkeys swing over vied with each other from trees.

The leading one is a tall and mighty male monkey, followed closely by dozens of large and little and females monkey, it is estimated that all of these are the children and mates of that monkey.
