Tian Shougui looks after the bear cubs he adopted at home, April 12, 2011.

The twin bears were weak and flabby when Tian found them while picking tea at a local tea plantation on April 1.

He began to feed the bears at home and plans to send them back to nature after they gain some weight. The bears are recuperating under his care.
