Savior of Captive Birds

As an insurance canvasser for the China Life Insurance Company, Henan Branch, Zhang Linhui makes barely 1,000 yuan a month, with which she must support her mother and herself. She nevertheless saves enough from her meager salary to buy captive birds, and then set them free. Zhang has lost count of how many birds she has saved in the past six years. She just hopes that her actions may encourage more people to protect this feathered friend of humankind.


Zhang's love and care go with each bird she sets free.

The birds released by Zhang Linhui perch happily in the trees.

Not everyone can understand Zhang's benevolence.

Bargaining with a bird seller.

Light-hearted on the way back from the bazaar.
