China to launch new research project on giant panda protection
(ECNS) -- China Wildlife Conservation Association reached an agreement with the Madrid Zoo in Spain and the San Diego Zoo in the United States respectively on a new round of international conservation research on giant pandas, according to its official account on Thursday.
China also conducted a new round of negotiations on giant panda conservation with the Washington's National Zoo in the United States and Schonbrunn Palace Zoo in Austria.
China will strengthen health monitoring and on-site inspection and assessment, and continue to release the status of giant pandas living abroad to ensure their wellbeing.
The U.S., Austria, and Spain were among the first batch of countries to engage in giant panda protection breeding and cub-rearing, disease prevention with China.
These efforts effectively improved the level of protection and scientific research, tackled technological challenges, drove the restoration of giant panda habitats in China, and promoted people-to-people exchanges and friendship between China and foreign countries.
China is willing to strengthen cooperation with other countries to make positive contributions to the protection of the giant panda and other endangered species, the China Wildlife Conservation Association also said.
