Known as the "Oriental gem," the beautiful species was thought to be extinct in China until seven wild birds were observed 40 years ago in Shaanxi province.

Twelve crested ibises were released into the wild along the Hanjiang River in Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province, after nearly two years of rescue and rehabilitation. The group, comprising adults, sub-adults, and chicks, is expected to adapt well, with older birds aiding the younger ones. Thanks to over 40 years of conservation, the population has grown from just seven in 1981 to over 10,000, with their habitat expanding to more than 16,000 square kilometers. #Trending #ChorusofLife #EcoFrontline | CCTV
