Hundreds of rescued white pheasants are being cared for and bred at Cuc Phuong National Park, with healthy, well-adapted birds set to be released back into the wild.
Before being released, each pheasant undergoes a health check and an assessment of its natural survival instincts. This is also a powerful message of environmental education, fostering love and a sense of responsibility for wildlife.
Meanwhile, the wild white pheasant population in Bach Ma National Park in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue has been on the rise thanks to effective conservation and breeding efforts.
Since July 1, the white pheasant has been reclassified to Group IIB, which restricts exploitation and commercial use.
