The Przewalski's horse, a globally endangered species under first-class national protection in China, was once extinct in the wild within the country. In 1985, China launched a reintroduction program, bringing the horses back from abroad for breeding. After more than 40 years of scientific protection and breeding, the population of Przewalski's horses in China has surpassed 900, accounting for one-third of the global total.
