On April 27th, Mr Dao Xuan Thuy, Director of Chu Mom Ray National Park (Kon Tum province), announced that the Center for Nature Conservation and Development (under Chu Mom Ray National Park) has released 3 pig-tailed macaques (belonging to group IIB, listed in the endangered and rare forest animal category) back into the natural forest area to preserve their valuable genetic diversity.
Prior to this, the 3 pig-tailed macaques were voluntarily surrendered by local residents to the forest ranger force of Kon Tum City. Subsequently, the forest ranger force handed them over to the Center for Nature Conservation and Development for care.

Mr Dao Xuan Thuy stated that after nearly 1.5 months of care, the individuals are now healthy and agile. The centre has completed the necessary procedures to release them back into the wild to preserve their valuable genetic resources.
