Trainer Li Qian interacts with a white whale at an aquarium in Penglai City, East China’s Shandong Province, Sept. 26, 2016. Born in 1988, Li worked as a performer posing as a mermaid, then turned into a trainer due to her love for marine animals. The only female trainer in the aquarium, Li said it sometimes takes months to develop a new performance skill in a white whale, to which she has developed a strong attachment.
