The survey also detected the animal which is suspected to be the goat-like bovine Saola. This has proved the effectiveness of the park’s management board in protecting endangered animals.

At least three bisons have also been detected near the Bang hot mineral spring in Le Thuy District’s Kim Thuy Commune, Quang Binh Province recently.

Earlier, bison hoof prints were spotted at Bac Huong Hoa Nature Reserve in Quang Tri Province

The bull is listed in Vietnam’s Red Book of endangered species.
