"China has no birds". China's Shenzhen promotes construction of int'l mangrove center

No idea about now, but in 2001 I spent 4 months in Guangzhou. Seen no birds.

They must have eaten all of them.

The ones you see in the OP video are going to be eaten too. They have served their purpose now.

Back then everything was on the menu. I been to Chinese meat markets in Guangzhou and whampu. Dogs, kitten, insects, turtles ,everything was there being sold as edible meat .
But China in the 90 and early 2000s was different from now.
Things have changed, including menu.
Let's not keep living in the past
About birds, Chairman Mou himself declared war on the birds , because they ate seeds which farmers sowed. That was to increase crops yield .
But saying that , nations have wielded war 9n different animals and plants, then realised their mistakes and helped nature to recover.
For example 60 million bisons were shot down by white settlers in USA to starve the local tribes, as they relied on bison for everything.
Centuries later, now they are trying to revive Bison population.

But most westerners alway live in past when it comes to China, in their mind China had never change since Mao. this is why they keep mentioning Mao, the guy who died half a century ago.

Isn't that reinforce the idea "China had no bird"?

If China already has them, then why build this center to begin with?
In England , my country of residence, all forests are less than 2 to 300 years old. Most younger than 100 years. That's because English people chopped off almost all forests by 17th century, then realized what they done and started replanting trees.
Likewise Heather moorlands, wetlands. Most of wetlands were decimated for peat harvesting, and Heather which grows there went with that. Then they re flooded areas to creat peat bogs and replanted Heather.
China is going through a similar phase. They waged a war against 4 pests, including sparrow. In 1950s and early 60s

But since it was direct order from Chairman Mao, people took it too seriously and sparrows were eradicated. That caused ecological disaster. Later use dangerous pesticides, caused further damage to birds and ecosystem.
Now they are rehabilitating nature,and doing quite well
We should appreciate, not criticize.
