With abundant water and lush grass, it is an ideal habitat for wild animals. Black-necked cranes, goitered gazelles and many other key state protective animals thrive here, forming a unique landscape of animals and plants.
“In the management and protection station, different birds can be seen all year round, with different beauties throughout the four seasons,” said Huo Deyun, a caretaker at the Dulan Lake National Wetland Park.

Huo added that at the end of November this year, winter migratory birds flew into the park one after another. Now there have been 35 big swans and tens of thousands of ruddy shelducks. Due to changes in the ecological environment, there have been a rising number of birds in the park.
