Gia Lai - Releasing endangered and rare individuals back to the natural environment will help restore the population of species in the forest ecosystem.

On June 11, the Center for Rescue, Conservation and Development of Organisms under Kon Ka Kinh National Park coordinated with Mang Yang Regional Forest Protection Department and Ayun Commune Police to successfully re-release 15 endangered, precious, and rare forest animal individuals in the natural environment.

This re-release includes 15 individuals of animal species on the list of endangered, precious, and rare animals (groups IB and IIB), who are rescued, cared for and recovered before returning to their natural habitat in Sub-area 432 managed by Kon Ka Kinh National Park.

The individuals released back to the forest include earth pythons, brocade pythons, golden mountain turtles, wild cats, peacocks, flower iguanas, pig-tailed macaques, red-faced macaques, bordered mountain turtles, iguanas...

According to the Center for Rescue, Conservation and Development of Organisms of Kon Ka Kinh National Park, all of the above animals were received in May 2026, through voluntary handover by people and the coordination of functional agencies in Gia Lai province.

This is a positive sign, showing that community awareness in protecting wildlife is increasingly being raised.

When first received, many individuals were in poor health, even seriously injured, and physically exhausted. Some individuals lost their natural instincts.

Through a professional rescue process, including veterinary treatment, appropriate nutrition and restoration of wild behavior, the Center has gradually helped individuals restore their health and survival ability.

The results of periodic health checks in early June 2026 confirmed that all 15 individuals were in good health, restored their natural instincts and had sufficient conditions to live independently in the forest environment.

Releasing activities are organized under the supervision of local functional agencies, including forest rangers and local authorities, to ensure compliance with procedures, legal regulations and safety for individual animals.

Bringing endangered wild animals back to the natural environment not only contributes to restoring the species population in the forest ecosystem of Kon Ka Kinh National Park, but also affirms the effectiveness of rescue and conservation work in the locality.

At the same time, this activity continues to spread a strong message about biodiversity protection, calling on the community to join hands to stop illegal hunting, captivation, and trafficking of wild animals.
