Once widely found across East Asia, the species nearly disappeared from the wild in the 20th century. In 1981, just seven wild crested ibises were found in Yangxian County, northwest China's Shaanxi Province. After decades of rescue, breeding, habitat restoration and reintroduction efforts, the global population had grown to more than 12,000 by the end of 2025. Today, the species lives and breeds in 15 provincial-level regions across China, marking a systematic recovery across its historic range. #coolchina #crestedibis #birds 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://news.cgtn.com/news/2026-05-25/China-s-fairy-bird-soars-back-From-7-to-over-12-000-1NqM5ccUvjG/p.html Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA Wed, 10 Jun 2026 11:57:03 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/f3e55fbf-9e61-438c-8ba3-192ef135e55c All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
