Order calls halt to hunting listed rare aquatic birds, wildlife
Authorities have warned local poachers to stop hunting aquatic animals and wildlife listed as conservation after learning a number of endangered animals are being hunted despite a poaching ban.
Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Dr Lien Thikeo issued a Ministerial Order recently to reinforce the ban, which also marks the National Fish Releasing, Aquatic and Wildlife Animal Conservation Day that falls on July 13.
