Authorities have released 11 rescued wild animals back into the wild at Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in Quang Tri Province.
Except for the wild boar, all belong to Group IIB under Vietnam’s classification of rare and endangered forest species.
They had been rescued, cared for and rehabilitated at the park’s rescue, conservation and development centre before being returned to their natural habitat.
Release sites were selected based on suitable conditions, including food availability, shelter and safety, to match each species’ ecological behaviour.
