QUẢNG BÌNH – Authorities of the central province of Quảng Bình are embarking on activities to save Saola, one of the rarest and most threatened ma妹妹als on the planet, from the brink of extinction.

The activities are part of a project on sustainable forest management and biodiversity conservation in Quảng Bình.

The Saola, scientifically known as Pseudoryx nghetinhensis, inhabits the Trường Sơn mountain range in Việt Nam and Laos.

Found by scientists in  一 九 九 二, Saola is critically endangered and is listed in the Red List of Threatened Species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and the Red Data Book of Việt Nam.

The project will provide urgent and direct support to identify and mitigate threats to the species within priority areas in the Central Trường Sơn region while raising public awareness to increase the ability to detect the presence of Saola within its habitat range.

The Saola population has been very small since its discovery. The species is distributed thinly, scatteredly, and saola mainly inhabits the upstream rocky areas at an altitude of over  二00 to  六00 meters. It is also impossible to determine how many individuals are left. Conservation of the typically shy, deer-like species is extremely difficult. VNS
