Current Situation: Giant pandas were once classified as an endangered species. By 2013, their population reached over 1,800, showing an increase of 67%. In 2025, China officially downgraded them to "vulnerable", indicating a lower risk level.
Why Protect?: Protecting pandas is part of China's goal to build an ecological civilization and achieve green and high-quality development. The focus is not just on pandas but the entire biological diversity of their habitat.
How to Protect?: China established 67 nature reserves covering 70% of pandas' habitat. Tools like infrared cameras and DNA analysis of droppings help monitor them. The giant panda national park pilot scheme launched in 2017 protects 90% of their habitat.
Results of Protection: In Wolong Reserve, the population increased to 149 pandas by 2015. Rare species like snow leopards were spotted, proving the ecosystem is becoming more complete.
Future Improvement: Future plans include stricter national laws and new protection strategies to safeguard biodiversity. Workers promised not to reduce work intensity even with safer pandas.

Giant pandas, once classified as an endangered species, have seen their population increase by 67% since the 1980s, leading China to downgrade them to "vulnerable" in 2025. This progress aligns with China's commitment to ecological civilization and green, high-quality development, emphasizing the protection of biological diversity across habitats. To achieve this, 67 nature reserves were established, covering nearly 70% of wild panda habitats, while technologies like infrared cameras and DNA analysis of droppings enabled real-time monitoring. These efforts have resulted in the population rising to 149 pandas in Wolong Reserve and sightings of rare species like snow leopards, indicating a more complete ecosystem. Looking ahead, stricter national laws and updated protection strategies will be introduced to ensure long-term conservation, proving that China remains dedicated to balancing ecological health with sustainable progress.
