"Dian Province is launching a project for the artificial breeding of Indochinese leopards and Indochinese tigers. The ultimate goal of the project is to release them into the wild and establish a new population. Initially, we'd like to ask Dr. Chen for some help with the preparation work."

Yikes, he had no idea if Grandpa Hu would just swipe him with a claw on the spot.
"Our side possesses mature Indochinese tiger captive breeding technology, but you know as well as I do that there are only so many tiger breeds in the country—they're almost becoming too closely related."
This wasn't just a domestic issue; essentially every country faced this anxiety.
