Tuyen Quang records 72 individuals of tonkin snub-nosed monkey

With the theme “Biodiversity through the lens and pen: From beauty to concern,” the program attracted the participation of nearly 100 journalists and reporters from central and local media agencies.

At the program, experts, forest rangers, patrol staff, journalists, and reporters shared knowledge and stories about biodiversity, particularly rare species such as the white-cheeked gibbon, tonkin snub-nosed monkey, macaques, and slow lorises.

According to statistics, the mountainous forests of Na Hang - Lam Binh have so far recorded more than 2,000 plant species, including many listed in Vietnam’s Red list, such as ebony, mun, nghien, lat hoa, dinh, bamboo pine, and golden cypress.

In terms of wildlife, initial records show 90 mammal species, 263 bird species, 25 reptile species, 35 amphibian species, and 500 insect species. Notably, at certain times, up to 72 individuals of the Tonkin snub-nosed monkey have been recorded in the Tat Ke - Ban Bung Nature Reserve of Tuyen Quang province.

The program not only brought vivid images and stories from nature but also sounded an alarm for biodiversity conservation. It inspired greater awareness, encouraged environmental action, and nurtured a love for nature within the community.
