保育工作與成果 – 大熊貓
在保育基金的資助下,昆山杜克大學進行了一項
研究,探討放牧對大熊貓棲息地的影響。項目使用
分布圖標示放牧活動,以量化研究估計當中受嚴重
影響的大熊貓棲息地位置及總面積,並設立監測系
統。此外,項目更分析與大熊貓棲息地放牧相關的
利益衝突,確定以保護大熊貓棲息地為目標的替代
生計,提高社區對放牧負面影響的了解,最終建立
社區參與式的保護方法。
根據項目對不同地區之放牧情況所進行的社區和
實地考察,結果顯示大熊貓棲息地的面積減少了
三十三平方公里,佔原來棲息地的百分之三十四。
項目亦評估研究及為當地居民提出替代生計,從而
減低與大熊貓棲息地之衝突。首屆的「保護區域及 © Li Binbin
周邊地區社區可持續生計研討會」亦順利舉行,
旨在提高當地居民就放牧對大熊貓的影響之認識,
以及促進保護區的工作人員技能培訓。 Conservation efforts and achievements — Giant panda
With funding from OPCFHK, a recent study by Duke Kunshan
University sought to determine the impact of livestock grazing on
giant panda habitats. The project aimed at mapping the spatial
distribution of livestock grazing, quantifying the area of panda
habitats that are being heavily affected and establishing a monitoring
system. It looked to better understand the socioeconomic causes for
illegal grazing, collaborate with the local government to come up with
the best solution and improve the local community’s understanding
of the negative effects of grazing.
The project investigated the grazing situation in different regions
through community and field surveys. 34% of the giant panda’s
2
original habitat (33km ) was found to be lost. The team also studied,
evaluated and proposed alternative livelihoods for local people to
reduce conflicts in habitat use. For example, the first “Community
Sustainable Livelihood in a Protected Area and its Surroundings”
meeting was held to raise local awareness of the impacts of grazing
on giant pandas and enhance skill training for staff in the protected
