In early September 2016, the defendant Xiao knew that the wild birds illegally hunted by others, and he still purchased 1365 yellow-browed buntings. Later he raised the purchased wild birds in his yard to sell for profit. After identification, the wild birds purchased by Xiao were all listed in List of terrestrial wildlife protected by the state or beneficial to economic and scientific research, with a total value of RMB 13,650 yuan. Xiao confessed to having covered up or concealed crime-related income.
