China has just released 25 milu deer, a species under first-class state protection in China, into the wild successfully. According to China's National Forestry and Grassland Administration (NFGA), the population of milu deer in China is now 8,000, basically achieving the goal of restoring the species' population.

Was Nanyuan Imperial Hunting Park not the location near to the original last milu deer population in Beijing? I think the reintroduction effort actually first started at Dafeng in 1985.

Would be interesting to know the wilderness areas the free releases took place! These places should be on the banks of the Yangtse.
