About the scholar: Chuhan Zhang grew up in China and attended Nanjing Jinling High School International Department in Nanjing, China.
The Research:
Motivated by a transition in the image of the wolf in Chinese media “from a despicable villain to an object of worship,” Pioneer scholar Chuhan decided to research the actual relationship between wolves and humans in Tibet. She examined the figure of “wolf” in ancient and modern Chinese literature, then interviewed Tibetan pastoralists whose herds are subject to wolf predation. She found that Buddhists, who believe in the equality of all life, in general have a “live and let live” attitude, while Tibetan pastoralists, who no longer have access to guns, find the conflict with wolves a constant concern.
Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth.
