These wild animals were transferred by the Hanoi Wildlife Rescue Center and voluntarily handed over by local residents to the authorities.

Subsequently, these animals were handed over to the Center for Rescue, Conservation, and Biological Development, where they were cared for, rehabilitated, and their natural behaviours restored before being released back into the wild.
