On Thursday, a ferret-badger (Melogale moschata) was released back into a green space on Da Nang’s Son Tra Peninsula by the Son Tra-Ngu Hanh Son Forest Ranger Division.

The day before, the forest rangers had found the 0.5kg ferret-badger trapped in a tree when they were searching for illegal wildlife hunters in sub-region 63 of the peninsula.  They seized the hunters’ hanging and foothold traps left at the scene after fleeing.
