Under Decision No.1633/QD-SNNMT, seven species were released, including masked palm civets, silver-eared mesias, and red-billed leiothrix—three listed in Group IIB of endangered species. All naturally inhabit Tam Dao forests.
Each animal was given a full health check to ensure survival in the wild. The initiative not only supports wildlife recovery but also raises public awareness of protecting endangered species.
The Hanoi Wildlife Rescue Centre emphasized that close coordination among agencies has allowed for timely rescue and release, contributing to the preservation of genetic diversity and sustainable forest ecosystems.
Vuong Tien Manh, Deputy Director of Tam Dao National Park, said the operation reflects ongoing efforts to maintain ecological balance and biodiversity. Beyond rescue and release, the park also strengthens patrols, monitoring, and community outreach.
He said that raising awareness among local residents is vital to stop hunting, trading, and consumption of wild animals.
The park is also working with partners to expand rescue operations and sustain communications campaigns. Practical actions such as refraining from hunting, trading, or consuming wildlife are seen as essential to preserve the forest’s natural beauty and sounds of birdlife.
The return of 91 wild animals to Tam Dao is viewed as a positive step in biodiversity conservation. With strong cooperation between authorities and public participation, such efforts are expected to build a more resilient ecosystem and promote harmony between humans and nature.
