The plane managed to land 15 minutes behind its schedule after security personnel chased the animal away.
Dien Bien is not the only airport in Vietnam where operations are affected by wandering animals.
Authorities in Cat Bi, an airport in the northern coastal city of Haiphong, have reported six similar cases recently that have threatened air safety.
