On the morning of November 6, Cat Tien National Park organized the release of 330 deer back into the wild.

The figure of 330 deer released back into the wild was chosen to mark the 330th anniversary (1698–2028) of Marquis Nguyen Huu Canh’s historic mission to administer the Southern region.

The event carries profound symbolic significance, demonstrating Dong Nai City’s commitment to nature conservation. Each deer returned to the forest not only contributes to ecosystem restoration but also sends a message about every Dong Nai resident’s responsibility toward nature and future generations.
