In December 2021 and January 2022, the Gonggong green food distribution store in Ganzi County successively submitted an application for collection and sale of Saussurea Gossipiphora. And the sale of license documents, agreed with its limited collection and sale of the plant.

Since Saussurea Gossipiphora is listed as a national second -level protection wild plant, the Provincial Forest Prairie Bureau has only issued this collection certificate and sale license documents.

After investigation, there are currently 10 species of plants in Subgen. ERIOCORYNE, which are distributed in Sichuan Province.

Among them, Sichuan Province is included in the "National Key Protection of Wild Plants List": Saussurea Laniceps and Saussurea Medusa.

The green food distribution store and local relevant personnel of San Gong, Ganzi County are restricted by professional levels, and mistakenly regarded the local "Snow Rabbit" as "Saussurea Gossipiphora) in the" National Key Protection of Wild Plants ". submit application.

At present, the store has ordered the store to stop the "Snow Rabbit" sales and seal its inventory; the Provincial Forest Cao Bureau has sampled and sent a professional organization for identification of the "Snow Rabbit" sold by the store. Other related situations are investigating further.
