Endangered bull killed in park in Central Highlands
A seven-year-old male Bos Gaurus bull, an endangered species listed in Group IB in Việt Nam’s Red Book, was killed in a protected area in Chư Mom Ray National Park last Friday. Đào Xuân Thủy, deputy director of the park’s management board, said the bull, weighing 800 kilos, was discovered around 5pm on Friday by forest rangers patrolling the park’s sector 677 in Sa Thầy District’s Mô Rai Commune. They found a damaged truck not far from the dead bull at the 22-km section of Provincial Road No 674, he said. The driver Nguyễn Thanh Hùng, who was still at the scene, had been carrying rocks for construction of Provincial Road No 674.
