The Sociable Lapwingm is a medium-sized wading bird.
Yellow-cheeked laphens are migratory birds with great flying abilities. They inhabit grassland, cultivated land, desert and dry inland wetlands (such as desert oasis, salt lake, salt marsh, alkali beach, seasonal rivers, seasonal lakes, spring overflow zones in the Gobi desert, etc.) and nearby semi-arid grasslands. It feeds on insects, locusts, grasshoppers, spiral snails, and shrimp.
Under human hunting, yellow-cheeked laphens have had to leave China, which cannot but be said to be a pity. Now the yellow-cheeked lapcock is still struggling on the edge of survival, and I hope it can overcome the difficulties as soon as possible and return to China.
Listed in the International Red Book of Birds of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), 2009 list ver 3.1 - Critically Endangered (CR).
It is listed in the second level of the List of China's National Key Protected Wildlife.
