Our journey took us to the easternmost part of Nepal, which shares its border with China, to meet Pema, a researcher at Kathmandu University who dedicates herself to her cause: protecting the red panda. She works closely with local communities to raise awareness and recreate a hospitable habitat for this endangered species.

Plants essential for the red panda’s survival are grown in dedicated areas. Whilst the animals that share the same habitat are also taken care of.
