Fish and shrimps in the water are the favorite of the green-winged teals.

 

 

In recent years, increased efforts have been made to monitor and protect wildlife, resulting in continuously improved ecological environment in the reserve. Especially the Langpan Lake located in the core protected area has become an important habitat for migratory birds to overwinter.
