At about 23:00 on May 25, when the police at the Qingshuihe Border Checkpoint were on duty at the security checkpoint at the 6-kilometer G331 National Highway, they heard a bird chirping, and then found an owl injured in an accidental collision with a vehicle in the inspection area.
After on-site inspection, the owl's right wing was seriously injured, its vital signs were weak, it could not fly, and it was very likely that its life would be in danger if it could not be treated in time. After consulting the relevant professionals, the police on duty carried them back to the duty car. Subsequently, a simple wound cleanup is performed and they are tried to find food and water to feed. Since it was late at night, it was impossible to hand it over to the protection station, and it could only be temporarily taken care of by the police on duty, and then handed over to the relevant departments after dawn.
After a night of rest and protection, the injured owl was slightly rejuvenated, but still needed professional medical treatment. To this end, the police promptly contacted the Fengling Protection Station of the Changbai Mountain Nature Conservation and Management Center and handed over the injured owls to them for professional treatment. It is reported that the owl is scientifically named long-tailed forest owl, which is a common wild bird in the Changbai Mountain area and is a national second-level protected animal. At present, further treatment is being carried out at the Fengling Conservation Station, and when his body is healed, he will be released from nature.
The police remind: The Changbai Mountain area is densely forested and has a wide variety of wild animals, many of which are national key protection objects. If the general public finds wild animals around them, do not take the initiative to approach them, so as not to destroy their living environment, let alone illegal hunting. If it is found that a wild animal is injured and needs assistance, it is not appropriate to dispose of it on its own, and it should be reported to the police in time or asked the forestry department for help.
