In recent years, as China has elevated biodiversity protection to a national strategy, Sichuan has also come up with a “Sichuan Plan” in animal protection and biodiversity governance. On October 12, 2021, the Giant Panda National Park was officially established. This is not only the first time that my country has carried out a national park system pilot under the name of a single species, but also an ecological home protected by an “umbrella”. Within the 27,000 square kilometers of “park”, not only giant pandas are protected, but also more than 8,000 companion animals and plants, and more than 1,600 rare animals in the same domain are protected by giant pandas. Behind the frequent “knocking” of rare wild animals is the kind-hearted “provement” of animals to humans, and it is also the “response” of nature to ecological and environmental protection.
A year has passed, and in Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu, some changes are happening quietly, and the story about the protection of giant pandas and their habitats continues.
On December 8, 2022, the “Beauty of Biodiversity” online theme event and National Park Media Tour were officially launched in Sichuan in the form of “cloud release”. The event is guided by the Internet Communication Bureau of the Central Cyberspace Affairs Office and hosted by the Cyberspace Affairs Office of the Provincial Party Committees of Sichuan, Jilin, Fujian, Hainan, Shaanxi, Gansu and Qinghai. At this moment, let us take you to “travel” the Giant Panda National Park in the form of pictures, texts and videos to see the beauty of biodiversity.

405 piles buried in Chengdu area
Confirm the definition of the mark to make the park management more standard
“You have entered the Giant Panda National Park, please pay attention to protecting wild animals.” Starting from Chengdu, heading west, Jiguanshan Village, Wenjingjiang Town, more than 80 kilometers away, a blue-based white-lined reminder signBelow, a striking boundary stake stands beside the road. The green markings and the big red characters indicate its identity as “Giant Panda National Park”.
Confirm definition of the standard is an important basic work in the construction of giant panda national parks, and is of great significance to standardizing park management, implementing strict protection, and strengthening zoning control. In February 2021, the Sichuan Provincial Administration of Giant Panda National Park issued a document announcing the formal launch of the pile driving and calibration work of Giant Panda National Park, and this work by Chengdu Panda Branch was started in the Chongzhou area last year. The Chongzhou area of Giant Panda National Park belongs to the eastern edge of the middle section of the Longmen Mountains in Qionglai. It has a total area of 280 square kilometers, including 145 square kilometers of core protection area and 135 square kilometers of general control area. “The Chongzhou area has clearly defined the boundary and location of the Giant Panda National Park, providing a strong basis for the management, law enforcement, supervision and evaluation of the price of the Giant Panda National Park. Wang Lei, deputy stationmaster of the Chongzhou Management and Maintenance Station of the Giant Panda National Park, introduced that the Giant Panda National Park boundary piles are divided into four categories: the main entrance boundary marker, ordinary boundary marker, boundary pile and functional area boundary pile.
Through protection facilities such as boundary markers, boundary piles, electronic fences and public representation identification systems, the Giant Panda National Park is divided into core protection areas and general control areas according to management goals, uses and control intensity, and is included in the ecological protection red line management, and differentiated use control is implemented.
The core protection area refers to the maintenance of giant pandasAs the key areas for the normal survival, reproduction and migration of rare wild animal populations represented by them, the strictest scientific protection of natural ecosystems and natural resources will be implemented through methods such as blockade and natural recovery. In principle, human activities are prohibited in core protected areas except for relevant activities that meet the special national strategic needs. General control areas refer to key areas for implementing ecological restoration, improving habitat quality and building ecological corridors. They are the main areas for production and life of indigenous residents and management personnel in the Giant Panda National Park. They are the main places for carrying out natural education and ecological experience services consistent with the protection and management goals of Giant Panda National Park.
As of now, there are 405 buried piles in the Chengdu area, including 17 boundary markers, 315 boundary piles and 71 district piles. The stele piles in Chongzhou area have been buried and passed the pre-acceptance in December 2021. The Dujiangyan, Pengzhou and Dayi areas are expected to be buried in December 2022.

Build 6 artificial caves
Providing “sanctuary” for giant pandas and animals in the same area
A adult giant panda appeared alone near the artificial drinking spot. It was sometimes lying beside the pool to drink water, sometimes sitting in the pool to “bathe”, sometimes lying on the grass and rolling and playing. When the staff of the Dujiangyan Management and Maintenance Station of the Giant Panda National Park collected and sorted out the infrared cameras, they found that they were installed in two infrared cameras at an altitude of 2,600 meters on the Longchi Xiaocaopo, they were photographed many times on the same day.
In recent years, with the increasing degree of ecological protection of habitats, giant pandas have appeared in surveillance cameras more and more frequently. In the Xiaocaopo area of Longchi, giant pandas appear on camera every quarter. It is understood that since the pilot construction of the Giant Panda National Park, the Chengdu Panda Branch has continuously strengthened its biodiversity monitoring and ecological protection and restoration in its area, and created an ecological home with the protection of giant pandas as the core.

Picture by Chengdu Management Branch of Giant Panda National Park In 2020, the Dujiangyan Management and the Nature Conservation Association (TNC) of Giant Panda National Park cooperated to carry out the construction of artificial caves for giant panda wild scattered caves and subsequent infrared camera monitoring projects. According to reports, this project provides wild breeding places for giant pandas and their animals in the same area, especially in winter covered with heavy snow. Artificial caves provide shelter for wild animals. In addition, through real-time wild monitoring, we can understand the utilization of artificial caves by wild animals.
Zhu Dahai, director of the Longchi Management and Protection Station of the Dujiangyan Management and Protection Station of Giant Panda National Park, introduced: “We have built a total of 6 artificial caves, which are at different altitudes, mainly within the habitat of giant pandas. We hope that when giant pandas give birth, we can Cinema 1950 witch cloth drawmake the most of this cave. ”
After the artificial cave was set up for one year, the staff collected and sorted out the data of nearby infrared cameras and found that wild animals represented by giant pandas frequently moved in artificial caves and had completely accepted artificial caves. The infrared cameras have successively monitored the visits of artificial caves by giant pandas, giant pandas, Sichuan antetokounmeng, Sichuan golden monkeys, and forest muskies.
The use of artificial caves by wild animals has greatly compensated for the insufficient conditions for breeding and sheltering for wild animals such as giant pandas. Zhu, director of Longchi Management and Protection Station, Zhu Babaylan 1990 clothes DrawDahai said: “The construction project of artificial caves for wild animals is a first in the Giant Panda National Park. We will also carry out more experiments, try better methods for building lee holes, and provide valuable technical support for more nature reserves to enhance the survival of wild animals in small populations of giant pandas. ”

The first claim for beekeeper was awarded 3,240 yuan
Nanyue Community is one of the most remote communities in Longchi Town, Dujiangyan City. There are 340 residents and 56 residents live in the mountains all year round. Wang Changquan is one of them. In recent years, with the construction of the Giant Panda National Park,The ecological environment in the park is getting better and better, the population of various wildlife species is increasing year by year, and the scope of activities is gradually expanding, which will inevitably “disturb” the lives of residents sometimes.
“I originally wanted to go up the mountain to collect some honey that day, but when I got closer, I saw that the scene was in a mess. Nearly 20 beehives wereCinema 1950 witch cloth draw were completely damaged.” Wang Changquan recalled, “It might be that the black bear ate the honey.” Since his father’s generation, Wang Chang’s family began to raise beehives on the mountain. Komiks 1960 witch cloth drawIn fact, he has seen such similar scenes many times. His beehive is “careful” to varying degrees at least twice a year.
But this time is different from before, Wang Changquan remembered the “wild animal accident insurance” purchased by the Chengdu Management Branch of Giant Panda National Park for everyone. With a try-out mentality, he took out the “Wild and LivelyCinema 1950 witch cloth draw object accident insurance claim information card”, which detailed the report process, photo evidence collection requirements, and staff contact information. Soon, Wang Changquan received a total of 3,240 yuan in compensation, and all operation procedures were completed through mobile phones.
It is understood that in order to resolve the contradictions caused by the dangers of wildlife accidents in Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw, the Chengdu Management Branch of Giant Panda National Park launched the “Wild Animal Accident Insurance for the Chengdu Area of Giant Panda National Park”, providing life and property safety guarantees for residents and tourists in the Chengdu area. The coverage period is from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023. The insurance amount for the first year is 600,000 yuan, with an insurance amount of 130 million yuan.
Wang Changquan is the first claimant since the insurance came into effect. “Although I paid 70% of the loss, I feel very satisfied. Compared with the past, I can say that it is a huge change in the ground. Now,With insurance coverage, our farmers will feel more at ease and will take the initiative to take the responsibility of protecting wild animals. ”

Establish a co-construction and co-management committee
60 indigenous people transform into panda “guardians”
“After this year, we will make the giant panda cultural corridor landed, and Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw promotes Yunhua Village to become a veritable panda village under the snow-capped mountains with all-round tourism. “On the morning of March 18, 2022, the first meeting of the Yunhua Village Co-construction and Co-management Committee of the Giant Panda National Park was held in Yunhua Village.
In order to better guide indigenous people to participate in ecological protection from the concept and lifestyle, the Chengdu Management Branch of the Giant Panda National Park took Yunhua Village, Xiling Town, Dayi County and Feihong Community, Longchi Town, Dujiangyan City as pilot projects, and took the lead in establishing a co-construction and co-management committee led by the government, participated by the management and maintenance station, led by the village (community) committee, villagers as the main body, cooperation of public welfare organizations, and empowered by learning, research and enterprises. Build a societyBabaylan 1990 cloth draw District discussed and built a joint management platform, established a complete system and innovated the village self-government management model.
By implementing the Giant Panda National Park Collective Resources and Community Human Activities Patrol and Monitoring Test Point Project, from 2022 to the present, each station has hired 60 indigenous people, signed a patrol and monitoring agreement, and formed a patrol and monitoring team for collective resources and community human Activities.
Each headquarters organizes patrol and monitoring teams to carry out at least 4 collective resource and community human activities patrol and monitoring work for at least 4 times a month, and fill in the relevant forms as required. The patrol monitoring content includes the use of collective resources such as non-public collective forests, production and living land, and special land in the jurisdiction to conduct investigations, and to find out the multi-dimensional information such as the quantity, purpose, planting, approval and use of various collective resources. In addition, it is necessary to conduct dynamic monitoring of the situation, business projects and other human activities, hidden dangers of households, hidden dangers, rural garbage disposal, wildlife accidents, new construction and renovation of rural houses, population increase and decrease, business projects and other human activities, carry out hidden danger inspections and safety management, and strictly stop human activities that damage the ecology.
From indigenous people to panda “guardians”, in order to better adapt to new identities and carry out work, from February to March 2022, the Dujiangyan area, Pengzhou area, Chongzhou area and Dayi area also conducted patrol and monitoring training for patrol and monitoring team members to teach everyone how to identify wild traces, collect information, and conduct practical skills such as GPS use, infrared camera installation, and field plant recognition in the wild. “In the past, many farmers made a living by forestry (cutting). Now, through the guidance of the committee, they can engage in some under-forest planting, such as Chinese medicinal materials, and other agricultural and sideline products, etc. Babaylan 1990 cloth draw, so that they can earn more money without cutting down in the original forest land.”

People retreated pandas and entered 34 small hydropower stations closed
The wonder of the waterfall reappeared in the Xiling Snow Mountain
Walking into the Dayi area of the Giant Panda National Park, the mountains are undulating and green, and looking at the steep mountains in the distance, more than ten waterfalls are like pearl necklaces dotted among the mountains. However, such a beautiful scenery has disappeared for many years and has returned to the great world not long ago.w‘s vision.
“It’s not easy, I didn’t expect to see the Little Feishui Waterfall again.” Zeng Zejun is the deputy stationmaster of the Dayi Management and Maintenance Station of the Giant Panda National Park. He has participated in the giant panda protection work for 20 years. He has also become a “witness” of the continuous strengthening of the protection of giant panda homes.
In 2021, in order to consolidate the ecological background of Giant Panda National Park and restore the “originality” of national parks, multiple departments in Sichuan jointly formulated the “Implementation Plan for the Cleaning and Exit of Small Hydropower in Giant Panda National Park”, and Chengdu area has successively carried out small hydropower cleaning and exit work. At the end of September, a total of 18 small hydropower stations in Dayi County were disconnected and the intakes of 14 small hydropower stations were blocked. At present, 34 small hydropower stations have officially withdrawn in the 36 small hydropower stations in the Chengdu area.
After the shutdown of the small hydropower station, some disappeared landscapes on the mountain reappeared. The large Feishui Waterfall with a drop of more than 300 meters, the small Feishui Waterfall with a drop of 150 meters and a width of 60 to 70 meters, the former trickle turned into a turbulent rapid flow. After a year of recovery, the dam left behind by the small hydropower was removed, and the trees and plants grew up, truly realizing the return of water to the river and to nature.
As the “Millennium Waterfall” that has disappeared for decades, the Xiling Snow Mountain has also undergone tangible changes. On the one hand, rare wild animals have frequently appeared. Since last year, the infrared detector here has successively photographed wild animals such as giant pandas, snow leopards, and antetokounmpo. In addition, the ecological background of Dayi is brighter, and the 3,000 acres of beautiful lake surface is perfectly presented in Shaqu West Lake Fashion Sports City. The comprehensive air quality index ranks first in Chengdu. The water quality compliance rate of drinking water sources is 100%, and it was selected as the first batch of pilot projects for the value realization mechanism of ecological products in the province. More importantly, the urban and rural forms are more beautiful, and 85 fine forests are scattered in the vast villages of Dayi. In addition, more and more tourists come to Dayi to travel. In 2021, the county received a total of 17.0231 million tourists, an increase of 8.56% year-on-year.
In the year since the establishment of the Giant Panda National Park, examples of such “people retreat and cats advance” have occurred in many villages in Sichuan. Hydropower stations, coal mines, and timber factories have been shut down. The villagers put down the saws on which they depend for their survival, and went down the mountain with bitter faces, but smiled in the new business opportunities brought by giant pandas and the ecology is getting better and better. And between this advance and retreat, a picture of the beauty of biodiversity is slowly unfolding among the green waters and green mountains of Sichuan.
