In the forest valley at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, there are many tourists in summer, and every time he patrols, Jia Jihong picks up cans of mineral water bottles and plastic bags discarded by passers-by anytime and anywhere. The picture shows that a few years ago, Jia Jihong was armed and patrolled the mountains in the mountains. Respondents provided

Jia Jihong, 52 years old this year, has lived in a forest area since childhood, is a "second generation of forests", and has a deep affection for the wild forests in the mountains. In 2014, Jia Jihong voluntarily applied to work as a ranger at the Tianchi Baiyanggou Sangong Management and Protection Station. "I have a feeling of being in the mountains, I grew up in the mountains and loved the job of forest ranger. Because my father was a ranger, I remember running with my father in the mountains when I was a child, and I was familiar with the environment in the mountains. ”

The forest area of tianchi Baiyanggou Sangong Management and Protection Station in Tianshan Nature Reserve, where Jia Jihong is located, covers an area of 100,000 mu, of which Jia Jihong patrols 35,000 mu of forest area every day. "Walking into the mountains, the most important thing is fire prevention, monitoring tree pests and diseases, protecting rare wild animals, and preventing livestock from trampling on seedlings and young trees. Timber entering forest areas is monitored to prevent diseases and insects from outside timber from invading forest trees in forest areas. ”

Winter snow obscured the road, and Jia Jihong walked along the winding and rugged mountain road. "Today I'm going to go to herders' homes and give them winter fire prevention propaganda. Because it is almost the Spring Festival, fire prevention is also our focus. Jia Jihong said.

There are not many herders living in the mountains this winter, only 6 households. Jia Jihong still needs to go from village to village every month, post propaganda slogans, and publicize the "Forest Law", "Fire Prevention Regulations" and fire prevention knowledge, which has raised the people's legal awareness.

Like Jia Jihong, more than 10 rangers at the Tianchi Baiyanggou Sangong Management and Protection Station are also repeating the work of patrolling the mountains day after day, patrolling more than 10 kilometers on foot every day, regardless of cold and heat.

As the only woman among the rangers, Jia Jihong has a deep experience in forest rangers for many years. She told reporters that patrolling the mountains often encounters dangers, encountering venomous snakes 7-8 times a year, and if you are not careful, the snake will appear in front of you. "Now there is experience, throw stones deep in the grass first, and the poisonous snake will sneak out early." I often have to beat wooden sticks while walking, frighten wild boars, wild deer, etc., and when I find that something is wrong, I yell twice and give myself courage, which is how these years have come. ”

In the forest valley at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, there are many tourists in summer, and every time he patrols, Jia Jihong picks up cans of mineral water bottles and plastic bags discarded by passers-by anytime and anywhere. In 2015, a pest and disease was found on the tree during the patrol, she immediately reported it to the corresponding department, and the technicians learned that it was called the wrinkled flower skin Tianniu through the study of the disease and pest, and after the analysis of the technicians, the spread of the disease and insect pest was solved and the forest species was protected.

Regardless of winter or summer, Jia Jihong records the patrol diary every day, recording the patrol line, monitoring the samples of tree diseases and insect pests, whether there are illegal acts of destroying forest resources, the results of treatment, and whether there are fire alarms and fires. After more than 6 years of perseverance in the depths of the mountains, she fell in love with the green trees in the mountains, and her common persistence with the team members exchanged for a green mountain.

Gao Feng, head of the natural forest protection section of the Fukang Municipal State-owned ForestRy Administration, said that the Tianshan Natural Forest Reserve in Fukang City has a high altitude and the patrol personnel work hard. "Jia Jihong, as the only woman in our Baiyanggou Sangong Management and Protection Station, loves to learn, is diligent and careful, has a strong sense of responsibility, has a responsible role, and does a good job in taking the lead in a down-to-earth manner, and everyone has built a green barrier at the foot of the Tianshan Mountain together."

Nowadays, every day when the mountain patrols into the shade of the trees, the mountain breeze blows, the pine branches sway, and the moment when he sits on the mountain rocks and rests, Jia Jihong looks at the towering spruce and reminisces about the water age, only feeling that his heart is full, and he is proud of his guardianship of this job.
