But in the 1960s they began to disappear because of pollution and other human activities. In 1981, Chinese scientists found seven of them in the wild in Yangxian county in Hanzhong, they have been saved from extinction (灭绝).

Researchers said its population has risen to more than 5,000 worldwide. There are 3,000 crested ibises in Yangxian alone. The bird’s survival (幸存) is because of China’s early protection efforts, according to Zhang Yueming, an expert who helps protect the birds in Yangxian.

For example, it stopped people from hunting, it set up the Qinling No. 1 protection station and sent four people to look after the birds day and night.
