[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] The Baegam Office of Naejangsan National Park under the Korea National Park Service (Director Lee Jaewon) announced on the 18th that it will strengthen patrol and surveillance activities in vulnerable areas inside and outside the park until March 2021 to prevent winter poaching and illegal wildlife trade, and to protect the park's natural ecosystem and natural resources.

As poaching and illegal trade have recently become more sophisticated and specialized, a poaching control team has been formed, and a close cooperation system with various administrative agencies and organizations has been established to strongly crack down on poaching activities within the park.

Kim Byungsoo, Head of Resource Conservation at the Baegam Office of Naejangsan National Park, said, "Through continuous patrols and the collection of illegal traps, we aim to protect precious wildlife and stabilize their habitats. We ask for the understanding and active cooperation of local residents."
