(InXizang)CHINA-XIZANG-PREGNANT TIBETAN ANTELOPE-RESCUE (CN)

(240617) -- LHASA, June 17, 2024 (Xinhua) -- Rangers treat an injured Tibetan antelope in Qiangtang National Nature Reserve in southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region, June 14, 2024. Not far from a wildlife protection camp deep in the Qiangtang National Nature Reserve, a wolf on Friday attacked a pregnant Tibetan antelope among a migrating herd, leaving wounds in her stomach and neck. At the sight of the antelope struggling in the snow, several rangers carried her back to the camp for rescue. Unfortunately, her belly was slashed open and internal organs were damaged beyond cure. The rangers had no other choice but to sew up her belly and send her back to the wild, where she was found dead the next morning. Every year, tens of thousands of pregnant Tibetan antelopes, a species under first-class state protection in China, start their migration around May for birth-giving and would return with their cubs in late July. Their natural enemies including wolves and bears are always there to ambush them. (Pho

Yuncheng Salt Lake, known as the "Dead Sea of China," is one of three inland salt lakes with sodium sulfate in the world, covering an area of 132 square km. It once served as a salt production base. To better protect the lake's ecology, industrial production activities in the lake area have been completely terminated, and restoration works such as embankment renovation, dredging, and flood prevention have been carried out. Meanwhile, a protective regulation issued a few years ago has not only provided a basis for the lake's protection, but also extended the protection scope to ecological, natural, and cultural resources. Nowadays, the salt lake has been striving to transform into a tourist landmark and an ecological reserve, embracing new opportunities in the process of development. (Pho

US Forces Shoot Down Houthi Missiles And Drones

Handout photo dated July 4, 2021 shows Retail Services Specialist Seaman Jerico Santos, assigned to the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Laboon (DDG 58), fires a M2HB .50-caliber machine gun in the Atlantic Ocean. On Tuesday, U.S. fighter jets and a warship shot down an onslaught of missiles and attack drones in the southern Red Sea over a 10-hour period, military officials said. The downed weapons included a dozen one-way attack drones, three anti-ship ballistic missiles and two land attack cruise missiles. “U.S. assets, to include the USS Laboon and F/A-18 Super Hornets from the Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group, shot them down,” said U.S. Central Command, the Pentagon’s top combatant command in the Middle East. “There was no damage to ships in the area or reported injuries.” It wasn’t clear exactly what the drones and missiles were targeting, but U.S. forces in the region have carried out a number of “self-defense strikes” and shot down other drones and rockets in recent months.
