广州动物园两年成功繁育野生动物千余只

In recent years, Guangzhou Zoo has actively carried out research on biodiversity and ecological restoration to strengthen the protection of native endangered species in the wild. In the past two years, Guangzhou Zoo has successfully bred more than 1,000 wild animals, including Sun Bears, Chinese Golden Snub-nosed Monkeys, and Hainan Eld's Deer, completed artificial breeding of endangered birds such as the Reeves's Pheasants, and created a "Sperm Bank" for Silver Pheasants and other endangered birds.

The zoo has also participated in the implementation of Guangzhou's urban plan to build a biodiversity forest and carried out the rewilding and release research of Silver Pheasants and other animals.

Guangzhou Zoo now has about 5000 wild animals (400 species), ranking among the top three urban zoos in China in terms of the variety and quantity of captive wild animals. #LingnanAnimal
