The collection of illegal hunting traps aims to prevent damage to wildlife and further protect their habitats. The Nakdong River Office conducted this operation four times this winter and plans to carry it out five more times.

Director Choi Jong-won stated, “We will continue to promote wildlife protection activities such as the collection of illegal hunting traps,” and added, “Since illegal traps are installed in remote locations, active cooperation from local residents who are familiar with the area is especially necessary.”
