From crested ibises to pandas, China lights conservation path
Tourists take photos of giant panda Ru Yi at the Moscow Zoo in Moscow on July 31. "China emphasizes the construction of ecological civilization, and has made joint efforts to build a community with a shared future for mankind — strengthening wildlife protection and international cooperation that is crucial to that process," said Wang Weisheng, director of the flora and fauna department at the National Forestry and Grassland Administration. Wang said China's restoration of the once nearly extinct crested ibis population is a "successful model for saving endangered species worldwide". In recent decades, by providing genetic resources and technical guidance, China has supported Japan and South Korea in restoring crested ibis populations in the wild. In 1981, wildlife experts discovered seven crested ibises in the Qinling Mountains in Northwest China's Shaanxi province.
