Lin was good at many sports, but she didn't have a main focus (焦点). If the situation hadn't been changed, she would not have been good at anything.
In 2017, the Tianjin National Games was held. Lin watched the track and field (田径运动) competitions and was deeply touched. “The competitions seemed to have a kind of magic. Since then, I have made up my mind that I want to start focusing on track and field," Lin said.
Right at that moment, Lin met Liu Zhaoxu, the coach of the Fujian Provincial Team. Coach Liu advised her to do the 100-metre hurdles.

People saw a wolverine(狼獾) recently in California, the USA. In the past 100 years, that has only happened twice. Wolverines once lived in California, but they. almost died out in the1920s. People caught and killed them to get their fur. This put them in danger.
Wolverines can grow to about 30 kilograms and about one metre long. They have a heavy body and short legs. They are so strong that they can kill animals much bigger than themselves.
People once saw I one wolverine in California between 2008 and 2018. The latest one is probably not the same animal. Wolverines live about 12 to 13 years. The latest wolverine seems to be a young wolverine. He might be looking for other wolverines. He appeared(出现)in Inyo National Forest.He also visited Yosemite National Park.“It's just really exciting and surprising,” said expert (专家)Daniel Gammons.
“Wolverines can walk really far. They can walk more than a hundred miles. The wolverine might have walked all the way from Alaska to California,"Gammons said. “This winter, there was heavy snow in the West. The snow might have made ‘habitat bridges(生境廊道)’for the wolverine to cross.” Habitat bridges are special ways for animals. People build them to help animals cross dangerous roads or other places to find food or friends.
Experts hope to get hair or waste from the wolverine. They can test that to learn more about him.

Do you want to become a wildlife biologist If so, you might be interested in the Mule Deer Foundation(黑尾鹿基金会).It’s a foundation in North America with lots of wildlife biologists. They use radio collars (颈圈) to make connections(联系) with mule deer. However, these collars are not for play. They're used to collect information for biologists to understand the habits of mule deer.
Jessie Shallow is a member of that foundation. She loved animals and studied biology in college. After graduation, she became a river guide. During this period, one of her co-workers worked with the Mule Deer Foundation and asked her to help. So, she became a volunteer and worked to collar mule deer. However, it was challenging. Once, Jessie walked as far as 42 kilometres to collect collars and even spent the night in the wild!
After working with mule deer for a few years, Jessie wanted to start a research project. She hoped to learn more about the migration (迁徙) of mule deer and what they like to eat based on the information from collars. But she didn't have enough money. Luckily, the Mule Deer Foundation agreed to sponsor(赞助)the project. Thanks to the project, Jessie and other biologists did lots of studies about mule deer and learnt more about them.
Today, Jessie's job as a wildlife biologist is different. She still loves to work outside, but she does much more than that. She spends time with students. She teaches them about the importance of wildlife and the land. She also brings partners together to protect wildlife and make the land better.
