At the same time, strengthen the staff for many periods of time, irregular patrols, once found to have illegal acts, timely notification and transfer to the relevant departments for handling.

Strengthen wildlife rescue. Jiangyou Municipal Bureau of Natural Resources and other departments have established a wildlife protection volunteer association, actively mobilized social forces, and invited volunteers to join in and participate in wildlife protection work. At the same time, the organization set up a wildlife rescue station in Jiangyou City to find injured wild animals and actively carry out rescue work to ensure that injured wild animals receive timely and effective rescue.

Increase the intensity of market supervision and crime-related crackdowns. The Market Supervision and Administration Bureau should increase the intensity of supervision and strictly prohibit catering units within its jurisdiction from storing wild animals and their products prohibited by the state in processing and business premises. Public security organs and procuratorial organs should do a good job of cracking, arresting, prosecuting, and other work in wildlife-related criminal cases, and severely crack down on all kinds of illegal and criminal acts that undermine wildlife protection.

Increase the intensity of public interest litigation efforts. When each administrative unit investigates and handles all kinds of illegal or criminal cases related to the protection of wild animals, it shall promptly notify the procuratorial organs of the relevant circumstances.
