Since mid-November, hundreds of herders have begun moving more than 100,000 livestock from autumn pastures in the Ili Kazak Autonomous Prefecture to winter pastures in Wenquan county in Bortala Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. A police service team is supporting the 300-kilometer journey to ensure the safety of both herders and animals.
