This year, due to the coronavirus, there have been fewer residents coming to feed the birds, which aroused the attention and worries of many netizens all around China, and they showed their compassion for feeding the birds by ordering food on Eleme, an online delivery platform.

Since January this year, the Kunming bureau of forestry and grassland has organized employees to carry more than a metric ton of food to habitats of the gulls each day, feeding the birds twice a day to make sure they survive the winter.
