The Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve in East China has stepped up efforts to protect migratory birds,
as the reserve serves as a key wintering and stopover site for migratory birds around the globe.
The reserve spans approximately 153,000 hectares,
with wetlands making up 74% of its total area of the nine major flyways around the globe.
The East Asian Australasian Flyway and the West Pacific Flyway pass through the reserve.
It attracts large numbers of birds to stop there,
and also draws wildlife photographers and bird watching enthusiasts from across the region in response to concerns over the safety of migratory birds.
Authorities in the city of Dongying in Shandong Province, where the reserve is located,
recently announced measures to ban unmanned aerial vehicles during peak migratory periods.
The ban effective during the spring and autumn migratory seasons applies to all unmanned aerial vehicle flights within the nature reserve,
as well as surrounding areas within a three-kilometer radius of the reserve.
The ban follows the tragic incident in November,
when a bean goose was hit and killed by an unmanned aerial vehicle near the reserve,
sparking widespread public attention.
Hao Ying Dong, an official from the Nature Reserve Management Committee,
said that to protect the migratory birds, they will explore the use.
of digital technologies to curb unauthorized flights and ensure the effective implementation of the ban.
