Bing He
For more than 10 years, Bing He has been working for wildlife research and conservation in Southern China and Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. During the last 6 years, he worked for the Shan Shui Conservation Center, one of the biggest environmental NGOs in China, mainly focusing on Snow leopard and the alpine ecosystem conservation on the plateau. He participated in several Snow leopard surveys in Qinghai and Sichuan with world-renowned zoologist and naturalist Dr. George Schaller, and other Chinese snow leopard scientists. In his project sites, he helped local communities to build monitoring teams consisted of herders, farmers, and monks, who had been trained to record the absence of Snow leopard and to use camera-trap to capture wildlife photographs. He also tried several approaches to build local capacity to resist the loss of predation of livestock by snow leopards to prevent the retaliatory killing. Now he is still working on the plateau, as an independent researcher, to promote the coexistence of large carnivores and human beings.
