2. There are two camera bodies available for photography equipment, one with a wide-angle lens and the other with a telephoto lens.

3. Adjust the white balance according to the light and the frame of the animal to ensure that the animal does not appear too yellow under the white snow.

4. The camera battery cannot cope with low temperatures. Please put spare parts in the pocket next to your body to keep warm.

5. Last but not least: respect animals. Respect their space and keep a safe distance between the animal and you.
