Recently, in the east Dongting Lake area, a pink sunset spilled across the water, where herds of milu deer stood quietly still in the shallows. Gentle ripples moved through their reflections, as the sky and water fell into a moment of serene harmony.

Often referred to as the "four unlikes," milu deer are a species native to China that once became extinct in the wild. Reintroduced from overseas in 1985, the species has made a remarkable comeback over the past four decades, with more than 10,000 individuals now living across over 90 habitats nationwide. Nearly 400 of these deer now inhabit Dongting Lake in Hunan Province, making this the largest population of rewilded milu in China.
