At a large forest park in eastern Beijing,11 birds on the state-level protection list were recently released.
These birds had recovered after the Beijing Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center rescued and took care of them.“We will speed up our efforts to push the establishment of district-level wildlife rescue centers to jointly guard the health of wildlife,”said the director of the center.
The center was set up in 2001 and a wildlife rescue base in the capital's Shunyi District was built in 2005.Staff at the base have rescued and rehabilitated over 30,000 wild animals in total.
Wildlife protection has been strengthened in Beijing in recent years.On June 1st,the city's newly adopted regulation on wildlife protection took effect,introducing stricter and more concrete measures to protect the environment and wildlife.
For example,the regulation states clearly that Beijing bans hunting throughout the year,compared with the previous regulation which bans hunting during the periods of March to May and September to November each year.The new regulation also gives severer punishment for poachers.
After years of monitoring,data with the Beijing Gardening and Greening Bureau recently showed ecological reconstruction progress.The species and quantity of wild animals in Beijing are continuously increasing,with the number of terrestrial(陆生的) spinal wild animals growing from 461 species in 1994 to more than 500.
“The enforcement of the new regulation marked a new phase in Beijing's wildlife protection work,”said the deputy director of the Beijing Gardening and Greening Bureau.
“We will step up the publicity of the regulation and raise citizens' awareness of wildlife protection,” he said.“In our integrated protection of mountains,rivers,forests,farmlands,lakes and grasslands,we take into full consideration the requirements of food-chain construction,ecological corridor construction,and wildlife and their habitat protection.”
