Research finds that Northeast my country can support more than 300 Siberian tigers to survive

Research has found that Northeast my country can support more than 300 Siberian tigers.

Xinhua News Agency, Harbin, July 28th (Reporter Yang Siqi) July 29th is World Tiger Day

The team of Professor Jiang Guangshun of Northeast Forestry University and the Feline Research Center of the National Forestry and Grassland Administration, the World Wildlife Association, the World Wildlife Fund, the University of California and other institutions have jointly researched and found that the wild Siberian tiger population in China has shown a dynamic growth, which can be supported in the future The survival of more than 300 Siberian tigers

The study identified 55 wild Siberian tigers (including 20 larvae) through the image data recorded by automatic cameras

Based on the home space and prey biomass requirements of wild Siberian tigers, this study evaluated the conservation potential of the current Siberian tiger habitat landscape in China
.

Based on the population density of the Russian Siberian tiger and the home area of ​​adult female tigers, it is estimated that the current distribution area in China can support the survival of 310 wild Siberian tiger populations

Jiang Guangshun said that under the current trend of rapid global tiger habitat loss, China's Siberian tiger population and habitat have great potential for restoration, and it will become the most promising country in the global tiger distribution area
.

He suggested that the protection of Siberian tigers should be strengthened through the promotion of land and space utilization planning, scientific management of man-made disturbances, improvement of connectivity between landscape patches, and extensive international cooperation
