Dream job on offer to panda lovers

THE search is on for someone to care for giant pandas in Sichuan Province, southwest China.

Based at the China Giant Panda Protection and Research Center in Bifengxia, Ya’an, the job comes with an annual salary of 200,000 yuan (US$32,000), a rental SUV, and free board and lodgings.

Heng Yi, a publicity official at the center, said the job is a great opportunity for someone.

“The people who work at the center don’t normally get such a huge salary. But we want more people to think about giant pandas and get involved.”

But the winning candidate will need perseverance, Heng said.

“Life at the panda base won’t be easy compared with what they are used to back home,” he said.

The recruitment process began yesterday in Beijing and will run until July 15.
