Earlier, on the evening of June 10th, the People's Committee of Vy Da Ward, in coordination with the Ward Police and the Forest Protection Department of the central area of Hue City, received a Javan pangolin voluntarily handed over by a local resident.
The pangolin, weighing approximately 1.6 kg, was discovered by Mr. Le Thanh Tu (born in 1975, residing on Nguyen Lo Trach Street, Vy Da Ward) in a net bag abandoned in the middle of the road. Recognizing it as a rare and endangered wild animal in need of protection, Mr. Tu brought the pangolin to the authorities in Vy Da Ward to hand it over.
According to the head of the Hue City Forest Protection Department, the increasing number of wild animals voluntarily surrendered by the people shows that community awareness of nature protection, biodiversity, and compliance with legal regulations has undergone many positive changes.
After being received, eligible animals will be cared for, rescued, and released back into their natural environment to contribute to the conservation of wildlife in the area.
