In Xining's Qinghai-Xizang Plateau Wildlife Park, CGTN's Yang Xinmeng met the true "locals" of the highlands – Pallas's cats, sand cats and snow leopards – each bearing scars that tell a story of survival. Ling Bufu, once crushed by a yak, became China's first snow leopard to undergo nose surgery. Ling Xiaozhe, rescued as a frail six-month-old, now runs free again, like the wind on the plateau.

This wildlife park is more than just a zoo. It's a hospital and an orphanage for the plateau's wildest inhabitants. People say it is "poor but full of heart," and it's true – without this place, many of these animals might never have had a second chance at life. Watching them roam under the mountain sky, you can feel the wind wandering across the plateau, quietly carrying life forward.
