Īwtho the dragon haes aften served as Cheenae's naitional emblem, internationally the panda appears at least as commonly. In 2016, the IUCN reclassifee'd the species frae Endangered tae Vulnerable. Some reports forby shaw that the nummer o pandas in the wild is on the rise. Wild population estimates vary ane estimate shaws that thare aboot 1,590 individuals livin in the wild, while a 2006 study via DNA analysis estimatit that this figur could be as heich as 2,000 tae 3,000. Sichuan Giant Panda Sanctuaries, home to more than 30 of the worlds pandas which are classed as highly endangered, covers 924,500 ha with seven nature reserves and nine scenic parks in the Qionglai and Jiajin Mountains. A 2007 report shaws 239 pandas livin in captivity within Cheenae an anither 27 ootwi the kintra. The panda is a conservation reliant endangered species.

It has already generated $300,000 through catalog orders for things like honey, eggs, chickens, sausage and persimmons. To start, TNC is helping jump-start a guesthouse and an agriculture program that connects farmers to high-end markets for sustainable food products. The Conservancy and others are also working to tie nearby villages into a sustainable economy so people won’t have to venture into the reserves to hunt, fish or gather resources. Over time, we aim to mobilize the private sector to protect China’s land through voluntary action. Our goal is to create 10 land trust reserves together with our partners by the end of 2020. It has roamed over many thousands of miles, but is now down to only six spots on Earth where it. Now, The Nature Conservancy is testing a model that will enable Chinese land trusts to protect and sustainably manage China’s most important lands and waters, provide livelihood solutions for communities living near reserves, and create a mechanism to finance long-term reserve management through private contributions. The Giant Panda has roamed the Earth for thousands of years. But in 2008-while maintaining ownership of all land-the government opened the door for Chinese private entities to hold forestland use rights. And, until recently, China’s strict landownership laws made it difficult for non-governmental organizations to play a significant role in land protection. The Chinese government has established more than 2,500 nature reserves throughout the country, but most aren’t well funded or actively managed.

Only about 1,800 wild giant pandas now survive in the wild. A majority of these pandas live on a series of 62 reserves which, with help from The Nature Conservancy, China is attempting to weave together into a “Giant Panda National Park.”
