Nowadays, there are no longer bird traps on the mountain.

In 1999, Yang Jiazhen, known as "Bird Uncle" by the locals, spontaneously set up a wild bird rescue station specifically for receiving and treating injured birds,.

Over the past two decades, he has treated over 2,000 injured birds, with more than half being nationally protected species. After recovery, these birds embark on their migration journeys once again.

The reserve has also established a professional raptor rescue center.
