找小熊貓，喂小熊貓，拍小熊貓……濟南小伙杜欣然是濟南動物園小熊貓保育員，8年時間，他為動物園的小熊貓們拍攝寫真2000余張，用照片記錄了它們的日常起居和幸福生活。

杜欣然的母親是濟南動物園職工，從小杜欣然便常跟隨母親到動物園玩，對小動物們有著很深的感情。大學畢業(yè)后，杜欣然考入了濟南動物園，跟隨老師傅學習飼養(yǎng)小熊貓，一養(yǎng)就是8年。

“飼養(yǎng)和觀賞還是有很大區(qū)別的。”杜欣然說，和只有黑白兩色且憨態(tài)可掬的大熊貓不同，小熊貓有著紅黑配色加環(huán)紋大尾，模樣與小浣熊類似，長得精靈可愛，但其爪子特別鋒利，有一定攻擊性?！暗谝淮谓嚯x見面時，它也怕我，我也怕它?！被叵肫饎傞_始的那段時間，杜欣然說打掃衛(wèi)生時只能穿著長褲長袖，別說拍照了，手里還得攥著掃帚隨時防備它們。

經(jīng)過一個月的朝夕相處，杜欣然和小熊貓們漸漸熟絡起來。每天一大早，他將小熊貓從內(nèi)籠舍放出，查看前一天投食的剩余量，觀察糞便判斷健康狀況，打掃內(nèi)籠舍，擦玻璃。隨后領(lǐng)取當日飼料，回來清洗切分、搭配投喂。

“夏天戲水、冬天玩雪、上房上樹、草地打滾發(fā)呆……”起初杜欣然只是覺得它們可愛想要記錄下來，后來越拍越喜歡，一發(fā)不可收地拍了2000多張。每張照片杜欣然都視若珍寶，他把所有影像資料備份了3份，生怕丟失。這些照片串聯(lián)起來，很好地記錄了小熊貓們的成長變化以及身體狀況。

“現(xiàn)在園內(nèi)年齡最大的三只小熊貓已經(jīng)十三歲了，相當于人類的七八十歲?！毙⌒茇埵菄叶壉Ｗo動物，數(shù)量稀少，杜欣然希望通過影像記錄的方式，為動物園留下一些有用的研究資料，也能讓更多人了解小熊貓，給它們更多關(guān)懷。

8年時間，杜欣然利用工作之余，通過自學提高小熊貓飼養(yǎng)技巧和拍攝技巧，并利用個人積蓄升級了攝影裝備。談到未來，杜欣然表示自己還會繼續(xù)做好本職工作，讓小熊貓們健康成長，帶給游客歡樂。他也會繼續(xù)拍照，讓更多人愛上小熊貓。

Red Panda Keeper Skilled at Photography

Jinan boy Du Xinran is a red panda keeper at the Jinan Zoo. Over the past eight years， he has taken more than 2，000 photos of red pandas in the zoo to record their daily activities and happy life.

At first， Du Xinran just wanted to record the cuteness of red pandas. Later， with a growing interest， he took over 2，000 photos. He treasured every photo， and linked up these photos as a good record of red pandas’ growth changes and physical conditions.

Red pandas under second-grade state protection are few in number. Du Xinran hoped to leave some useful research materials for the zoo by means of recording image data， and enable more people to know about red pandas and show more concern for them. In the past eight years， he has taught himself how to improve red panda feeding skills and photography techniques in his spare time， and spent his personal savings upgrading camera equipment. He stored three backup copies of image data for fear of losing them. Speaking of the future， he said that he would continue to work as a red panda keeper， keep them healthy， and bring visitors joy. In addition， he would continue to take photos， show photos and popularize relevant knowledge to citizens in the zoo as occasion offers so as to make more people take a fancy to red pandas.
