In 2000, the State Forestry Administration issued the Catalogue of Terrestrial Wild Animals Protected by the State, which is beneficial or of great economic and scientific research value, and sparrows were included in it. Although it does not belong to the national first-and second-class protected wild animals, sparrows are also "three-owned" protected animals protected by the state.

The reason why sparrows become "three haves" is that the number of sparrows has dropped sharply in those years, even to the point of extinction. In order to quickly restore the population, China imported a large number of sparrows from the Soviet Union, which laid the foundation for the stability of the sparrow population, so most of the sparrows we see now are imported sparrows.

Therefore, in order to protect this finch bird, we must protect it and let it continue to develop and not become an endangered animal. In order to prevent it from disappearing in the food chain, certain protective measures must be taken, which leads to the addition of "three-owned" animals.

Introduction to sparrow:

Passerby: It is the general name of 27 kinds of birds, such as sparrows. They are similar in size and color. Generally, the upper body is brown and black, so it is commonly known as sparrow. There are 9 primary flight feathers, and the light feather edge of the outer flight feather (except the first one) is slightly enlarged at the base and proximal end of the feather and slightly crosses into two transverse spots, which is especially obvious in flight.
