The Chinese egret (Egretta eulophotes) is a medium-sized bird species found in coastal regions of China and Southeast Asia. The estimated remaining population of Chinese egrets is uncertain, but they are believed to be declining due to habitat loss, pollution, and disturbance. Conservation efforts involve protected areas, wetland conservation, and research to better understand their population dynamics and migration patterns.
