About 1,300 Sichuan takins live in Tangjiahe. The habit of licking salts has earned the takins the nickname of "salt-eater."

Located in southwest China's Sichuan Province, the Tangjiahe National Nature Reserve forms a barrier to preserve the animals and plants that thrive in these mysterious forests. The six-episode Tangjiahe Series reveals a pristine world pulsating with life.
