  6. 1
  7. 00:01:52,697 --> 00:01:57,785
  8. This is a story about connections
  9. between people,
  10.  
  11. 2
  12. 00:01:58,161 --> 00:01:59,787
  13. between cultures,
  14.  
  15. 3
  16. 00:01:59,871 --> 00:02:02,332
  17. even between animals.
  18.  
  19. 4
  20. 00:02:05,335 --> 00:02:08,713
  21. For a determined panda expert like
  22. Ho Ron,
  23.  
  24. 5
  25. 00:02:08,796 --> 00:02:12,300
  26. those connections can be full
  27. of surprises.
  28.  
  29. 6
  30. 00:02:15,345 --> 00:02:20,141
  31. Hou Rong is the Director of Research
  32. at the Chengdu Panda Base
  33.  
  34. 7
  35. 00:02:20,224 --> 00:02:22,435
  36. in China's Sichuan province.
  37.  
  38. 8
  39. 00:02:23,269 --> 00:02:27,273
  40. She's responsible for
  41. the country's largest population
  42.  
  43. 9
  44. 00:02:35,990 --> 00:02:39,077
  45. These cubs are just two months old.
  46.  
  47. 10
  48. 00:02:47,627 --> 00:02:50,630
  49. Hou Rong and her colleagues
  50. used new techniques -
  51.  
  52. 11
  53. 00:02:50,713 --> 00:02:55,051
  54. - that led to the birth
  55. of over 200 baby pandas.
  56.  
  57. 12
  58. 00:03:08,231 --> 00:03:13,528
  59. I've dedicated my life
  60. to the conservation of giant pandas.
  61.  
  62. 13
  63. 00:03:14,612 --> 00:03:19,867
  64. A healthy captive population
  65. can help save wild pandas -
  66.  
  67. 14
  68. 00:03:19,951 --> 00:03:21,744
  69. - from extinction.
  70.  
  71. 15
  72. 00:03:43,516 --> 00:03:45,560
  73. For such a famous animal,
  74.  
  75. 16
  76. 00:03:45,643 --> 00:03:49,313
  77. very little is actually known
  78. about wild pandas.
  79.  
  80. 17
  81. 00:03:53,651 --> 00:03:55,528
  82. Giant pandas are the oldest -
  83.  
  84. 18
  85. 00:03:55,611 --> 00:03:59,198
  86. - and most endangered species
  87. of all living bears.
  88.  
  89. 19
  90. 00:04:00,324 --> 00:04:03,703
  91. They once roamed across much of
  92. ancient China.
  93.  
  94. 20
  95. 00:04:07,874 --> 00:04:13,463
  96. For thousands of years kingdoms
  97. and dynasties rose and tumbled.
  98.  
  99. 21
  100. 00:04:19,927 --> 00:04:23,181
  101. And people transformed the landscape -
  102.  
  103. 22
  104. 00:04:23,264 --> 00:04:25,183
  105. - for their own use.
  106.  
  107. 23
  108. 00:04:46,829 --> 00:04:52,502
  109. The loss of their habitat pushed pandas
  110. higher and higher into these mountains.
  111.  
  112. 24
  113. 00:04:54,337 --> 00:04:59,133
  114. Today, there are fewer than 2,000
  115. giant pandas in the wild.
  116.  
  117. 25
  118. 00:05:00,092 --> 00:05:03,846
  119. Scattered in small groups
  120. and isolated from each other -
  121.  
  122. 26
  123. 00:05:03,930 --> 00:05:07,683
  124. - by rugged terrain and human development.
  125.  
  126. 27
  127. 00:05:09,060 --> 00:05:11,062
  128. The lack of genetic diversity
  129.  
  130. 28
  131. 00:05:11,145 --> 00:05:14,232
  132. is an added danger
  133.  
  134. 29
  135. 00:05:21,572 --> 00:05:23,741
  136. Hou Rong hopes her cubs can help -
  137.  
  138. 30
  139. 00:05:23,825 --> 00:05:28,120
  140. - increase the wild population
  141. and expand their gene pool.
  142.  
  143. 31
  144. 00:05:33,209 --> 00:05:35,169
  145. They've been carefully bred -
  146.  
  147. 32
  148. 00:05:35,253 --> 00:05:39,507
  149. - for a special mission,
  150. to be a panda force -
  151.  
  152. 33
  153. 00:07:31,243 --> 00:07:35,957
  154. Hou Rong's dream is to start
  155. the next phase of her program -
  156.  
  157. 34
  158. 00:07:36,749 --> 00:07:40,044
  159. - and release some of
  160. these cubs into the wild.
  161.  
  162. 35
  163. 00:07:47,885 --> 00:07:51,180
  164. The cubs' mothers were also born
  165. at the Panda Base.
  166.  
  167. 36
  168. 00:07:53,140 --> 00:07:57,436
  169. They don't have the experience
  170. to help them go wild.
  171.  
  172. 37
  173. 00:08:04,110 --> 00:08:07,363
  174. So Hou Rong will look elsewhere for help.
  175.  
  176. 38
  177. 00:08:23,462 --> 00:08:27,174
  178. Her search will lead her across the world -
  179.  
  180. 39
  181. 00:08:27,550 --> 00:08:31,887
  182. - to the small American town
  183. of Lyme, New Hampshire.
  184.  
  185. 40
  186. 00:08:35,224 --> 00:08:37,977
  187. And the home of Papa Bear.
  188.  
  189. 41
  190. 00:08:38,060 --> 00:08:41,856
  191. Yeah, what a good boy.
  192. What a good boy. Yeah.
  193.  
  194. 42
  195. 00:08:41,939 --> 00:08:44,984
  196. Ben Kilham takes in
  197. orphaned black bear cubs -
  198.  
  199. 43
  200. 00:08:45,067 --> 00:08:47,111
  201. - and returns them to the wild.
  202.  
  203. 44
  204. 00:08:52,241 --> 00:08:56,328
  205. Black bears are the most common
  206. of all bear species.
  207.  
  208. 45
  209. 00:08:56,412 --> 00:08:59,498
  210. But each one has its own personality.
  211.  
  212. 46
  213. 00:09:00,541 --> 00:09:03,836
  214. These little orphans
  215. are only ten weeks old.
  216.  
  217. 47
  218. 00:09:04,754 --> 00:09:07,757
  219. You wanna climb out, you wanna
  220. come up and see me.
  221.  
  222. 48
  223. 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,133
  224. Hmm?
  225.  
  226. 49
  227. 00:09:16,223 --> 00:09:19,060
  228. Yeah, that wasn't so hard, was it?
  229.  
  230. 50
  231. 00:09:20,019 --> 00:09:23,189
  232. At this age, they sleep most of the day.
  233.  
  234. 51
  235. 00:09:25,232 --> 00:09:28,986
  236. But when they're hungry,
  237. they turn into little monsters.
  238.  
  239. 52
  240. 00:09:32,573 --> 00:09:36,702
  241. [Bell] Ben and his family provide
  242. constant care and affection.
  243.  
  244. 53
  245. 00:09:37,828 --> 00:09:42,124
  246. If you think having kids is hard,
  247.  
  248. 54
  249. 00:09:57,139 --> 00:09:58,933
  250. Come on guys, let's go for a walk.
  251.  
  252. 55
  253. 00:09:59,016 --> 00:10:00,684
  254. Once spring arrives,
  255.  
  256. 56
  257. 00:10:01,602 --> 00:10:03,354
  258. the cubs move out of the house -
  259.  
  260. 57
  261. 00:10:04,021 --> 00:10:07,274
  262. - and Ben takes them
  263. for long walks in the woods.
  264.  
  265. 58
  266. 00:10:09,944 --> 00:10:11,362
  267. Come on, guys.
  268.  
  269. 59
  270. 00:10:11,612 --> 00:10:14,657
  271. Let's go up the pond. Come on.
  272.  
  273. 60
  274. 00:10:14,740 --> 00:10:18,994
  275. When I was a boy I had trouble
  276. learning in school.
  277.  
  278. 61
  279. 00:10:20,538 --> 00:10:25,751
  280. As I grew up I realized I just had
  281. a different way of seeing the world.
  282.  
  283. 62
  284. 00:10:27,962 --> 00:10:31,674
  285. I could read nature the way other
  286. people read books.
  287.  
  288. 63
  289. 00:10:33,717 --> 00:10:35,845
  290. Do you wanna go for a swim?
  291.  
  292. 64
  293. 00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:38,931
  294. Ben's method is simple.
  295.  
  296. 65
  297. 00:10:39,473 --> 00:10:41,100
  298. Build trust,
  299.  
  300. 66
  301. 00:10:41,183 --> 00:10:43,018
  302. then provide security
  303.  
  304. 67
  305. 00:10:43,102 --> 00:10:45,813
  306. and opportunity for the cubs to explore.
  307.  
  308. 68
  309. 00:11:08,294 --> 00:11:11,547
  310. I don't teach bears
  311. how to be bears.
  312.  
  313. 69
  314. 00:11:16,260 --> 00:11:18,971
  315. The knowledge is already inside them.
  316.  
  317. 70
  318. 00:11:25,352 --> 00:11:27,229
  319. Come on, let's go home.
  320.  
  321. 71
  322. 00:11:40,326 --> 00:11:44,413
  323. Next summer,
  324. this little troupe will break up.
  325.  
  326. 72
  327. 00:11:46,749 --> 00:11:50,586
  328. And the bears will be returned to
  329. the forests of New England.
  330.  
  331. 73
  332. 00:11:56,675 --> 00:12:01,764
  333. Ben has successfully
  334. released over 150 bears.
  335.  
  336. 74
  337. 00:12:10,397 --> 00:12:12,066
  338. Hou Rong was introduced to Ben -
  339.  
  340. 75
  341. 00:12:12,149 --> 00:12:14,818
  342. - by her friends at
  343. the Global Cause Foundation.
  344.  
  345. 76
  346. 00:12:15,402 --> 00:12:17,279
  347. She came to New Hampshire to see -
  348.  
  349. 77
  350. 00:12:17,363 --> 00:12:20,866
  351. - if he and his black bears
  352. could help her pandas.
  353.  
  354. 78
  355. 00:12:20,950 --> 00:12:23,577
  356. Hi.
  357.  
  358. 79
  359. 00:12:23,702 --> 00:12:26,330
  360. Watch out, guys, watch out.
  361.  
  362. 80
  363. 00:12:30,918 --> 00:12:34,421
  364. By your experiments, which
  365. age is better to use this method?
  366.  
  367. 81
  368. 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,633
  369. Well, the younger ones are the only ones
  370. we can do the method with.
  371.  
  372. 82
  373. 00:12:37,716 --> 00:12:40,052
  374. - Okay.
  375. - Of walking that would be comparable -
  376.  
  377. 83
  378. 00:12:40,135 --> 00:12:43,055
  379. - to what we could do with pandas.
  380.  
  381. 84
  382. 00:12:43,138 --> 00:12:46,100
  383. - Mmm-hmm.
  384. - And because all of your pandas,
  385.  
  386. 85
  387. 00:12:46,183 --> 00:12:48,060
  388. they don't have the experience
  389. with their mothers either.
  390.  
  391. 86
  392. 00:12:48,143 --> 00:12:49,144
  393. Yes. Yeah.
  394.  
  395. 87
  396. 00:12:50,521 --> 00:12:53,148
  397. The best model for Hou Rong's pandas -
  398.  
  399. 88
  400. 00:12:53,232 --> 00:12:55,985
  401. - is a bear named Squirty.
  402.  
  403. 89
  404. 00:12:56,652 --> 00:12:59,280
  405. Squirty was one of the first cubs
  406. I ever raised.
  407.  
  408. 90
  409. 00:12:59,863 --> 00:13:01,740
  410. She was a tiny little thing.
  411.  
  412. 91
  413. 00:13:02,241 --> 00:13:05,411
  414. But she had a big, bossy personality.
  415.  
  416. 92
  417. 00:13:14,169 --> 00:13:18,048
  418. Ben brings Hou Rong to his
  419. study site to demonstrate -
  420.  
  421. 93
  422. 00:13:18,340 --> 00:13:21,093
  423. - how the trust you develop
  424. with young bears -
  425.  
  426. 94
  427. 00:13:21,593 --> 00:13:24,972
  428. - can last long after they go wild.
  429.  
  430. 95
  431. 00:13:35,316 --> 00:13:38,027
  432. Squirty is a wild bear now.
  433.  
  434. 96
  435. 00:13:38,110 --> 00:13:40,571
  436. She's 22 years old.
  437.  
  438. 97
  439. 00:13:40,654 --> 00:13:44,033
  440. And has raised over 20 of her own cubs.
  441.  
  442. 98
  443. 00:13:47,161 --> 00:13:49,038
  444. Hi, Squirty.
  445.  
  446. 99
  447. 00:13:49,747 --> 00:13:50,748
  448. Hi, Squirty.
  449.  
  450. 100
  451. 00:13:55,794 --> 00:13:58,255
  452. Yeah, good girl.
  453.  
  454. 101
  455. 00:14:03,761 --> 00:14:06,847
  456. Squirty lets me put a tracking
  457. collar around her neck.
  458.  
  459. 102
  460. 00:14:09,391 --> 00:14:11,018
  461. But I have to be careful.
  462.  
  463. 103
  464. 00:14:29,995 --> 00:14:33,499
  465. Ben and Squirty have changed
  466. each other's lives.
  467.  
  468. 104
  469. 00:14:34,833 --> 00:14:41,673
  470. He gave her the chance to thrive
  471. and in return, she's been his guide -
  472.  
  473. 105
  474. 00:14:42,424 --> 00:14:44,927
  475. - into the world of wild black bears.
  476.  
  477. 106
  478. 00:14:56,897 --> 00:14:59,149
  479. Ben's experience with Squirty -
  480.  
  481. 107
  482. 00:14:59,233 --> 00:15:02,236
  483. - guided his work
  484. with all the bears that followed.
  485.  
  486. 108
  487. 00:15:06,031 --> 00:15:08,283
  488. Oh, wow. You gonna let us come in? Huh?
  489.  
  490. 109
  491. 00:15:09,368 --> 00:15:10,828
  492. - Hi, guys.
  493. - Hi, guys.
  494.  
  495. 110
  496. 00:15:10,911 --> 00:15:13,080
  497. The cubs are comfortable around Ben.
  498.  
  499. 111
  500. 00:15:13,539 --> 00:15:15,165
  501. But not strangers.
  502.  
  503. 112
  504. 00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:21,797
  505. Hi, there. Hi, there.
  506. Can I play hide-and-seek with you?
  507.  
  508. 113
  509. 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:22,923
  510. Hmm?
  511.  
  512. 114
  513. 00:15:24,383 --> 00:15:25,801
  514. Hi, there.
  515.  
  516. 115
  517. 00:15:28,387 --> 00:15:29,805
  518. Hi, there.
  519.  
  520. 116
  521. 00:15:31,432 --> 00:15:33,559
  522. Hi, there. Yeah.
  523.  
  524. 117
  525. 00:15:34,476 --> 00:15:38,147
  526. What a pretty girl.
  527. What a pretty girl.
  528.  
  529. 118
  530. 00:15:41,525 --> 00:15:44,695
  531. Hi, guys, I remember all you guys.
  532.  
  533. 119
  534. 00:15:54,746 --> 00:15:59,418
  535. I was touched by Ben
  536. and his love for the bears.
  537.  
  538. 120
  539. 00:16:00,961 --> 00:16:04,548
  540. They accept him like he's also a bear.
  541.  
  542. 121
  543. 00:16:04,631 --> 00:16:09,970
  544. That's a bluff charge, but it's not
  545. a really highly emotional bluff charge.
  546.  
  547. 122
  548. 00:16:10,053 --> 00:16:13,265
  549. The intensity of the bluff charge shows
  550. the emotion of the bear.
  551.  
  552. 123
  553. 00:16:15,309 --> 00:16:19,313
  554. At first, I was skeptical of Ben's method.
  555.  
  556. 124
  557. 00:16:20,564 --> 00:16:23,442
  558. Once I saw it with my own eyes,
  559.  
  560. 125
  561. 00:16:24,067 --> 00:16:28,197
  562. I knew it was the best
  563. way to help our pandas.
  564.  
  565. 126
  566. 00:16:29,114 --> 00:16:32,326
  567. Hou Rong invites Ben to collaborate.
  568.  
  569. 127
  570. 00:16:32,409 --> 00:16:34,369
  571. They'll combine his experience -
  572.  
  573. 128
  574. 00:16:34,453 --> 00:16:38,248
  575. - and her knowledge to chart
  576. a new way forward.
  577.  
  578. 129
  579. 00:16:47,591 --> 00:16:52,012
  580. Pandas inspire a frenzy
  581. of adoration around the world -
  582.  
  583. 130
  584. 00:16:52,095 --> 00:16:54,431
  585. - and especially at home in China.
  586.  
  587. 131
  588. 00:16:54,973 --> 00:16:58,018
  589. They are the King Kong of cute.
  590.  
  591. 132
  592. 00:17:00,979 --> 00:17:06,485
  593. And it takes a special person
  594.  
  595. 133
  596. 00:17:16,203 --> 00:17:19,289
  597. Ben and Hou Rong selected Jake Owens,
  598.  
  599. 134
  600. 00:17:19,706 --> 00:17:25,837
  601. an American biologist, to move to China
  602.  
  603. 135
  604. 00:17:30,133 --> 00:17:32,803
  605. Playtime is an essential part.
  606.  
  607. 136
  608. 00:17:32,886 --> 00:17:37,683
  609. It's how young animals bond
  610. and a relationship formed now -
  611.  
  612. 137
  613. 00:17:46,191 --> 00:17:48,652
  614. The next scientist to join the team -
  615.  
  616. 138
  617. 00:17:48,735 --> 00:17:50,070
  618. - was Bi Wen Lei.
  619.  
  620. 139
  621. 00:17:50,779 --> 00:17:53,699
  622. He's from a small village
  623. in Inner Mongolia.
  624.  
  625. 140
  626. 00:17:53,782 --> 00:17:55,993
  627. His friends call him Xiao Bi.
  628.  
  629. 141
  630. 00:17:58,704 --> 00:18:01,373
  631. Yeah, right, it's a noodle one.
  632. We can try.
  633.  
  634. 142
  635. 00:18:01,456 --> 00:18:03,917
  636. Working with giant pandas is my dream.
  637.  
  638. 143
  639. 00:18:04,334 --> 00:18:06,545
  640. And I can't wait to get started.
  641.  
  642. 144
  643. 00:18:07,754 --> 00:18:09,256
  644. - This one?
  645. - That one, yeah.
  646.  
  647. 145
  648. 00:18:16,763 --> 00:18:20,559
  649. Introducing any captive animal
  650. to the wild is risky.
  651.  
  652. 146
  653. 00:18:21,685 --> 00:18:25,397
  654. The team's first step
  655. is to pick the right panda.
  656.  
  657. 147
  658. 00:18:40,203 --> 00:18:44,333
  659. We assess the cubs for qualities
  660. that will help them survive in the wild.
  661.  
  662. 148
  663. 00:18:45,125 --> 00:18:46,918
  664. Climbing ability,
  665.  
  666. 149
  667. 00:18:47,878 --> 00:18:49,379
  668. curiosity,
  669.  
  670. 150
  671. 00:18:51,548 --> 00:18:53,342
  672. and courage.
  673.  
  674. 151
  675. 00:18:57,179 --> 00:18:58,472
  676. We need cubs that will follow,
  677.  
  678. 152
  679. 00:18:58,555 --> 00:19:01,516
  680. so we can take them
  681. for walks in the forest.
  682.  
  683. 153
  684. 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,018
  685. Just like Ben.
  686.  
  687. 154
  688. 00:19:04,645 --> 00:19:06,730
  689. Following is good.
  690.  
  691. 155
  692. 00:19:06,813 --> 00:19:09,733
  693. - Biting, not so much.
  694. - My head.
  695.  
  696. 156
  697. 00:19:11,610 --> 00:19:13,028
  698. Ooh, ow!
  699.  
  700. 157
  701. 00:19:13,111 --> 00:19:15,447
  702. Even little pandas bite hard.
  703.  
  704. 158
  705. 00:19:16,198 --> 00:19:18,617
  706. Their jaws are built to crush bamboo.
  707.  
  708. 159
  709. 00:19:20,577 --> 00:19:22,329
  710. Ah, you got my neck.
  711.  
  712. 160
  713. 00:19:23,455 --> 00:19:26,625
  714. Wild pandas must survive cold winters.
  715.  
  716. 161
  717. 00:19:27,751 --> 00:19:31,046
  718. So we brought in snow
  719. to see how they respond.
  720.  
  721. 162
  722. 00:19:45,143 --> 00:19:48,939
  723. You never know what surprises
  724. they'll encounter in the wild.
  725.  
  726. 163
  727. 00:19:52,901 --> 00:19:55,612
  728. And in the battle of panda versus snowman,
  729.  
  730. 164
  731. 00:19:57,447 --> 00:19:59,408
  732. there can be only one winner.
  733.  
  734. 165
  735. 00:20:05,288 --> 00:20:06,707
  736. Hey, buddy.
  737.  
  738. 166
  739. 00:20:07,833 --> 00:20:12,003
  740. The team settled on
  741. a little cub called Qian Qian Qian Qian.
  742.  
  743. 167
  744. 00:20:14,297 --> 00:20:17,008
  745. She's about to trade
  746. the comforts of Panda Base
  747.  
  748. 168
  749. 00:20:30,313 --> 00:20:31,481
  750. Hey! Hey!
  751.  
  752. 169
  753. 00:20:40,449 --> 00:20:44,286
  754. As a scientist,
  755. I usually just observe animals.
  756.  
  757. 170
  758. 00:20:45,746 --> 00:20:48,331
  759. Now my role is to make friends
  760. with a panda -
  761.  
  762. 171
  763. 00:20:49,374 --> 00:20:52,377
  764. - and head out together
  765. on a new adventure.
  766.  
  767. 172
  768. 00:20:57,924 --> 00:21:01,094
  769. The team brings Qian Qian
  770. to Panda Valley -
  771.  
  772. 173
  773. 00:21:01,178 --> 00:21:04,097
  774. - where she can begin training
  775. for her new life.
  776.  
  777. 174
  778. 00:21:39,549 --> 00:21:44,721
  779. Come out and play with us.
  780. She does play. Who's that?
  781.  
  782. 175
  783. 00:21:46,348 --> 00:21:47,432
  784. Wow.
  785.  
  786. 176
  787. 00:21:47,516 --> 00:21:51,311
  788. Now Qian Qian is about to
  789. experience nature -
  790.  
  791. 177
  792. 00:21:51,394 --> 00:21:53,438
  793. - for the very first time.
  794.  
  795. 178
  796. 00:22:05,408 --> 00:22:07,619
  797. Pandas explore with their nose,
  798.  
  799. 179
  800. 00:22:10,413 --> 00:22:13,166
  801. investigating every new scent.
  802.  
  803. 180
  804. 00:22:31,226 --> 00:22:33,520
  805. There's a whole new world to discover -
  806.  
  807. 181
  808. 00:22:37,274 --> 00:22:40,068
  809. - and this is just the beginning.
  810.  
  811. 182
  812. 00:23:34,372 --> 00:23:36,041
  813. With every step,
  814.  
  815. 183
  816. 00:23:36,124 --> 00:23:39,544
  817. Qian Qian is discovering
  818. her true identity.
  819.  
  820. 184
  821. 00:23:47,469 --> 00:23:51,056
  822. And learning what it's like
  823. to be a real panda.
  824.  
  825. 185
  826. 00:23:54,309 --> 00:23:57,562
  827. Come on. Let's go.
  828.  
  829. 186
  830. 00:24:02,859 --> 00:24:04,402
  831. There you are.
  832.  
  833. 187
  834. 00:24:04,486 --> 00:24:05,528
  835. Hey.
  836.  
  837. 188
  838. 00:24:06,196 --> 00:24:07,906
  839. You found a nice little spot, huh?
  840.  
  841. 189
  842. 00:24:08,531 --> 00:24:10,158
  843. You found a nice little spot.
  844.  
  845. 190
  846. 00:24:11,117 --> 00:24:12,285
  847. Hey.
  848.  
  849. 191
  850. 00:24:28,051 --> 00:24:32,055
  851. One year later,
  852. Qian Qian is almost two years old -
  853.  
  854. 192
  855. 00:24:32,138 --> 00:24:34,099
  856. - and getting hard to handle.
  857.  
  858. 193
  859. 00:24:36,685 --> 00:24:39,562
  860. She already weighs 120 pounds.
  861.  
  862. 194
  863. 00:24:40,105 --> 00:24:42,065
  864. So playtime is no game.
  865.  
  866. 195
  867. 00:25:03,378 --> 00:25:07,507
  868. Jujitsu is really similar to
  869. wrestling with a panda.
  870.  
  871. 196
  872. 00:25:09,300 --> 00:25:11,428
  873. It's all about weight and leverage.
  874.  
  875. 197
  876. 00:25:26,901 --> 00:25:28,194
  877. Yeah.
  878.  
  879. 198
  880. 00:25:29,362 --> 00:25:32,240
  881. There she is. What?
  882.  
  883. 199
  884. 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,328
  885. What?
  886.  
  887. 200
  888. 00:25:39,831 --> 00:25:43,293
  889. Qian Qian has outgrown
  890. this phase of her life.
  891.  
  892. 201
  893. 00:25:43,376 --> 00:25:47,338
  894. And it's time for her
  895. to climb a real mountain.
  896.  
  897. 202
  898. 00:25:58,975 --> 00:26:03,605
  899. Qian Qian moves with Jake
  900. and Xiao Bi to a new home -
  901.  
  902. 203
  903. 00:26:03,688 --> 00:26:06,149
  904. - at the Liziping Nature Reserve.
  905.  
  906. 204
  907. 00:26:27,837 --> 00:26:31,966
  908. Here Qian Qian will live in
  909. a 50-acre enclosure
  910.  
  911. 205
  912. 00:26:32,050 --> 00:26:35,261
  913. while she adapts to the wild environment.
  914.  
  915. 206
  916. 00:26:41,559 --> 00:26:44,771
  917. Liziping is real panda habitat -
  918.  
  919. 207
  920. 00:26:45,105 --> 00:26:47,107
  921. - full of natural bamboo.
  922.  
  923. 208
  924. 00:26:48,274 --> 00:26:52,445
  925. Wild pandas live in the mountains
  926. just beyond the fence.
  927.  
  928. 209
  929. 00:26:58,701 --> 00:27:00,411
  930. For the first few days,
  931.  
  932. 210
  933. 00:27:00,495 --> 00:27:03,414
  934. Jake escorts Qian Qian
  935. around the enclosure -
  936.  
  937. 211
  938. 00:27:03,873 --> 00:27:06,543
  939. - so she can explore her new home.
  940.  
  941. 212
  942. 00:27:13,591 --> 00:27:16,594
  943. In exchange for small pieces of apple,
  944.  
  945. 213
  946. 00:27:16,678 --> 00:27:21,099
  947. Qian Qian lets Jake and Xiao Bi
  948. adjust her GPS collar.
  949.  
  950. 214
  951. 00:27:22,392 --> 00:27:25,770
  952. The collar will be their lifeline
  953. to Qian Qian -
  954.  
  955. 215
  956. 00:27:25,854 --> 00:27:27,689
  957. - once she goes wild.
  958.  
  959. 216
  960. 00:27:28,898 --> 00:27:32,026
  961. You're okay. It's okay. Come on.
  962.  
  963. 217
  964. 00:27:32,569 --> 00:27:38,283
  965. It's just a collar.
  966.  
  967. 218
  968. 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:52,714
  969. Giant pandas have developed
  970. a special feature.
  971.  
  972. 219
  973. 00:27:52,797 --> 00:27:55,717
  974. A wrist bone that acts like a thumb -
  975.  
  976. 220
  977. 00:27:56,009 --> 00:27:57,969
  978. - to help them hold bamboo.
  979.  
  980. 221
  981. 00:28:02,849 --> 00:28:07,187
  982. Qian Qian needs to eat over 50 pounds
  983. of bamboo each day.
  984.  
  985. 222
  986. 00:28:07,854 --> 00:28:09,939
  987. Oh, my God. That's like a ball.
  988.  
  989. 223
  990. 00:28:10,940 --> 00:28:13,151
  991. Right. Come on.
  992.  
  993. 224
  994. 00:28:15,862 --> 00:28:18,531
  995. Some people say pandas are lazy.
  996.  
  997. 225
  998. 00:28:19,741 --> 00:28:20,783
  999. The truth?
  1000.  
  1001. 226
  1002. 00:28:20,867 --> 00:28:24,329
  1003. They're just masters of energy efficiency.
  1004.  
  1005. 227
  1006. 00:28:47,727 --> 00:28:48,937
  1007. You're right.
  1008.  
  1009. 228
  1010. 00:28:49,020 --> 00:28:50,980
  1011. During our time together,
  1012.  
  1013. 229
  1014. 00:28:51,064 --> 00:28:53,942
  1015. Xiao Bi has become
  1016. an excellent field biologist.
  1017.  
  1018. 230
  1019. 00:28:54,025 --> 00:28:56,986
  1020. What we are doing now,
  1021. you know how to say in Chinese?
  1022.  
  1023. 231
  1024. 00:28:58,154 --> 00:28:59,572
  1025. Right.
  1026.  
  1027. 232
  1028. 00:28:59,656 --> 00:29:01,491
  1029. When my work is done here,
  1030.  
  1031. 233
  1032. 00:29:01,574 --> 00:29:04,827
  1033. I hope he runs this project
  1034. for many years.
  1035.  
  1036. 234
  1037. 00:29:11,042 --> 00:29:14,087
  1038. Our relationship with Qian Qian
  1039. is changing.
  1040.  
  1041. 235
  1042. 00:29:15,088 --> 00:29:16,756
  1043. She's more independent -
  1044.  
  1045. 236
  1046. 00:29:17,590 --> 00:29:19,300
  1047. - and that's good.
  1048.  
  1049. 237
  1050. 00:29:43,950 --> 00:29:50,456
  1051. A few months later Qian Qian
  1052.  
  1053. 238
  1054. 00:29:54,419 --> 00:29:57,797
  1055. She's ready for a world without fences.
  1056.  
  1057. 239
  1058. 00:30:14,063 --> 00:30:18,234
  1059. After two years together
  1060. the big day arrives.
  1061.  
  1062. 240
  1063. 00:30:18,860 --> 00:30:24,991
  1064. Jake leads Qian Qian out into
  1065. the wild for the very first time.
  1066.  
  1067. 241
  1068. 00:30:42,967 --> 00:30:47,764
  1069. The safety of the enclosure
  1070. was now behind her.
  1071.  
  1072. 242
  1073. 00:31:14,165 --> 00:31:17,835
  1074. Jake and Xiao Bi followed Qian Qian
  1075. every day.
  1076.  
  1077. 243
  1078. 00:31:18,836 --> 00:31:21,214
  1079. She led them through dense bamboo,
  1080.  
  1081. 244
  1082. 00:31:21,297 --> 00:31:24,425
  1083. climbing higher
  1084. and higher up the mountain -
  1085.  
  1086. 245
  1087. 00:31:24,509 --> 00:31:27,011
  1088. - into prime panda habitat.
  1089.  
  1090. 246
  1091. 00:31:43,027 --> 00:31:45,571
  1092. She was in bamboo heaven.
  1093.  
  1094. 247
  1095. 00:31:56,666 --> 00:31:58,084
  1096. Have you seen Qian Qian?
  1097.  
  1098. 248
  1099. 00:31:58,167 --> 00:32:00,211
  1100. Here. Look.
  1101.  
  1102. 249
  1103. 00:32:01,879 --> 00:32:03,840
  1104. Three months later,
  1105.  
  1106. 250
  1107. 00:32:04,048 --> 00:32:07,093
  1108. Qian Qian is still thriving in the wild.
  1109.  
  1110. 251
  1111. 00:32:07,844 --> 00:32:13,141
  1112. So Jake prepares for a rare trip home
  1113. to see his family in America.
  1114.  
  1115. 252
  1116. 00:32:23,025 --> 00:32:27,822
  1117. I was home when I received
  1118. the worst possible news.
  1119.  
  1120. 253
  1121. 00:32:29,407 --> 00:32:31,659
  1122. An alert from Qian Qian's collar.
  1123.  
  1124. 254
  1125. 00:32:32,827 --> 00:32:35,455
  1126. She hadn't moved in 24 hours.
  1127.  
  1128. 255
  1129. 00:32:37,331 --> 00:32:38,749
  1130. I felt sick.
  1131.  
  1132. 256
  1133. 00:32:39,584 --> 00:32:43,129
  1134. I was so far away at the moment
  1135. she needed me most.
  1136.  
  1137. 257
  1138. 00:32:46,424 --> 00:32:49,719
  1139. Xiao Bi and Hou Rong
  1140. headed outwith a search party.
  1141.  
  1142. 258
  1143. 00:33:06,194 --> 00:33:10,573
  1144. They hacked their way through
  1145. dense forest for two days and nights.
  1146.  
  1147. 259
  1148. 00:33:12,033 --> 00:33:15,828
  1149. The signal led them to a towering tree.
  1150.  
  1151. 260
  1152. 00:33:17,038 --> 00:33:19,957
  1153. Xiao Bi is terrified of heights.
  1154.  
  1155. 261
  1156. 00:33:20,041 --> 00:33:22,668
  1157. But he climbed all the way to the top.
  1158.  
  1159. 262
  1160. 00:33:24,378 --> 00:33:27,340
  1161. [Qian Qian. Come on, Qian Qian.
  1162.  
  1163. 263
  1164. 00:33:31,093 --> 00:33:33,221
  1165. Qian Qian was injured,
  1166.  
  1167. 264
  1168. 00:33:33,304 --> 00:33:34,722
  1169. but alive.
  1170.  
  1171. 265
  1172. 00:33:39,602 --> 00:33:41,187
  1173. Come on, Qian Qian.
  1174.  
  1175. 266
  1176. 00:33:42,647 --> 00:33:45,775
  1177. She was scared and dehydrated.
  1178.  
  1179. 267
  1180. 00:33:51,489 --> 00:33:55,701
  1181. Xiao Bi gave her water
  1182. mixed with medicine and honey.
  1183.  
  1184. 268
  1185. 00:33:59,330 --> 00:34:01,082
  1186. After five days,
  1187.  
  1188. 269
  1189. 00:34:01,707 --> 00:34:04,377
  1190. she felt safe enough to climb down.
  1191.  
  1192. 270
  1193. 00:34:23,145 --> 00:34:24,313
  1194. Come on, Qian.
  1195.  
  1196. 271
  1197. 00:34:27,733 --> 00:34:28,901
  1198. Good girl.
  1199.  
  1200. 272
  1201. 00:34:37,410 --> 00:34:41,622
  1202. She had bite wounds
  1203. that became infected.
  1204.  
  1205. 273
  1206. 00:34:45,793 --> 00:34:47,753
  1207. Qian Qian trusted Xiao Bi -
  1208.  
  1209. 274
  1210. 00:34:48,879 --> 00:34:50,548
  1211. - and he saved her life.
  1212.  
  1213. 275
  1214. 00:34:53,259 --> 00:34:56,178
  1215. When I finally got there I was shocked.
  1216.  
  1217. 276
  1218. 00:34:58,848 --> 00:35:00,766
  1219. She was so skinny.
  1220.  
  1221. 277
  1222. 00:35:12,069 --> 00:35:14,322
  1223. She wouldn't leave my side.
  1224.  
  1225. 278
  1226. 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,416
  1227. Once she was strong enough to travel,
  1228.  
  1229. 279
  1230. 00:35:25,958 --> 00:35:28,586
  1231. Qian Qian was sedated and carried out.
  1232.  
  1233. 280
  1234. 00:35:42,933 --> 00:35:44,226
  1235. She's doing all right, she's good.
  1236.  
  1237. 281
  1238. 00:35:44,935 --> 00:35:48,022
  1239. I was so relieved she survived.
  1240.  
  1241. 282
  1242. 00:35:53,027 --> 00:35:54,028
  1243. There we go.
  1244.  
  1245. 283
  1246. 00:35:58,032 --> 00:36:00,076
  1247. Good girl, Qian Qian.
  1248.  
  1249. 284
  1250. 00:36:18,260 --> 00:36:19,887
  1251. How's Qian Qian doing?
  1252.  
  1253. 285
  1254. 00:36:20,262 --> 00:36:23,683
  1255. She's better. She's gained back
  1256. almost 20 pounds now.
  1257.  
  1258. 286
  1259. 00:36:24,809 --> 00:36:27,603
  1260. That relationship that you
  1261. and Xiao Bi have with her -
  1262.  
  1263. 287
  1264. 00:36:27,687 --> 00:36:29,021
  1265. - made all the difference.
  1266.  
  1267. 288
  1268. 00:36:29,105 --> 00:36:32,858
  1269. It made it possible to get her
  1270. and bring her back from the wild.
  1271.  
  1272. 289
  1273. 00:36:33,651 --> 00:36:37,113
  1274. As Qian Qian recovers,
  1275. the challenge now -
  1276.  
  1277. 290
  1278. 00:36:37,196 --> 00:36:39,156
  1279. - is to move forward.
  1280.  
  1281. 291
  1282. 00:36:39,657 --> 00:36:41,367
  1283. We all face adversity.
  1284.  
  1285. 292
  1286. 00:36:41,867 --> 00:36:44,120
  1287. Humans and animals alike.
  1288.  
  1289. 293
  1290. 00:36:45,705 --> 00:36:47,331
  1291. She still remembers you.
  1292.  
  1293. 294
  1294. 00:36:47,415 --> 00:36:50,292
  1295. What's important is how we respond.
  1296.  
  1297. 295
  1298. 00:36:51,836 --> 00:36:53,295
  1299. Do we give up?
  1300.  
  1301. 296
  1302. 00:36:54,338 --> 00:36:56,048
  1303. Or do we get stronger?
  1304.  
  1305. 297
  1306. 00:36:56,882 --> 00:37:00,511
  1307. And sometimes she climbs
  1308. some big trees for fun,
  1309.  
  1310. 298
  1311. 00:37:00,594 --> 00:37:03,556
  1312. for interesting...
  1313. so she's doing great there.
  1314.  
  1315. 299
  1316. 00:37:04,390 --> 00:37:07,226
  1317. So she likes having you around,
  1318. she responds to you?
  1319.  
  1320. 300
  1321. 00:37:07,309 --> 00:37:08,561
  1322. Yeah.
  1323.  
  1324. 301
  1325. 00:37:17,194 --> 00:37:19,613
  1326. We are more committed than ever -
  1327.  
  1328. 302
  1329. 00:37:33,502 --> 00:37:37,214
  1330. New cubs are born
  1331. at Panda Base every year.
  1332.  
  1333. 303
  1334. 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:44,305
  1335. And some will follow in
  1336. Qian Qian's footsteps.
  1337.  
  1338. 304
  1339. 00:37:59,403 --> 00:38:04,158
  1340. We'll keep working to give them
  1341. the future they deserve.
  1342.  
  1343. 305
  1344. 00:38:20,591 --> 00:38:22,551
  1345. Qian Qian has changed.
  1346.  
  1347. 306
  1348. 00:38:27,765 --> 00:38:30,059
  1349. - She's more alert.
  1350. - Okay, okay, you're okay.
  1351.  
  1352. 307
  1353. 00:38:30,142 --> 00:38:32,019
  1354. More wary.
  1355.  
  1356. 308
  1357. 00:38:34,522 --> 00:38:38,150
  1358. She's more prepared for
  1359. any danger she'll encounter.
  1360.  
  1361. 309
  1362. 00:38:56,126 --> 00:38:58,796
  1363. When Qian Qian returns to the wild,
  1364.  
  1365. 310
  1366. 00:38:58,879 --> 00:39:02,967
  1367. she'll enter an environment
  1368. that's changing for the better -
  1369.  
  1370. 311
  1371. 00:39:03,801 --> 00:39:05,553
  1372. - in one important way.
  1373.  
  1374. 312
  1375. 00:39:09,223 --> 00:39:14,019
  1376. China is creating a new
  1377. giant panda national park -
  1378.  
  1379. 313
  1380. 00:39:14,687 --> 00:39:18,065
  1381. - to connect the fragmented habitats -
  1382.  
  1383. 314
  1384. 00:39:18,148 --> 00:39:21,318
  1385. - and link the isolated panda groups.
  1386.  
  1387. 315
  1388. 00:39:27,032 --> 00:39:28,868
  1389. There you go.
  1390.  
  1391. 316
  1392. 00:39:34,373 --> 00:39:39,003
  1393. One day, Qian Qian may be
  1394. as successful as Squirty.
  1395.  
  1396. 317
  1397. 00:39:45,593 --> 00:39:47,261
  1398. When she's ready,
  1399.  
  1400. 318
  1401. 00:39:47,845 --> 00:39:52,725
