Conservation hubFaces an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild.
The Swan Goose faces significant threats from habitat loss and degradation, particularly in its breeding and migratory grounds, as well as hunting. While specific large-scale recovery programs are limited, ongoing efforts to protect critical wetlands and migratory routes are vital. Responsible safari tourism can help by raising awareness, supporting local conservation initiatives through park fees, and providing economic incentives for communities to protect the species and its habitat.
The swan goose is a large goose with a natural breeding range in inland Mongolia, Northeast China, and the Russian Far East. It is migratory and winters mainly in central and eastern China. Vagrant birds are encountered in Japan and Korea, and more rarely in Kazakhstan, Laos, coastal Siberia, Taiwan, Thailand and Uzbekistan.
