China: Off-Road Team Rescues Camel Trapped in Wire Fencing in Inner Mongolia

On April 24, 2026, in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia, a video captured a rescue mission unfolding along a desert crossing route from the sacred tree area of the Ulan Buh Desert to Ji’aobao. Members of an off-road team spotted a camel that had been stuck for three to four days, its leg tightly entangled in wire fencing.

The video ended with the camel gradually managing to stand up, wobbling at first before stabilizing itself as the rescuers looked on.
