Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. The giant panda faces extinction, with only about a thousand remaining in the wild in China, half of which are protected in reserves. To save this remarkable species, the Chinese government and the World Wildlife Fund initiated cooperative research in 1980. This report details the panda's natural history, including its environment, distribution, life cycle, and daily activities. Despite having few natural enemies, giant pandas are threatened by periodic bamboo die-offs, their primary food source. Understanding the panda's dependence on bamboo, the research team investigated various aspects of their lives, gathering data on both wild and captive pandas. As herbivores, pandas possess a carnivore's simple digestive tract, making it difficult for them to digest cellulose and obtain sufficient nutrition from bamboo, requiring them to consume large quantities daily and forage for over fourteen hours. Known in China for millennia as daxiongmao, or "large bear-cat," the giant panda's classification has been challenging. The authors analyze anatomical, biochemical, behavioral, and paleontological evidence, concluding that it belongs to a separate family, possibly related to the small red panda. By sharing their vital research, the authors aim to inspire further efforts to protect this beloved species.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A pioneering field study of wild giant pandas translated and updated into an essential volume for biologists and ecologistsFrom 1984 through 1995 a small band of ecologists led by Pan Wenshi from Peking University conducted a study of wild giant pandas in the Qinling Mountains of Shaanxi Province. This project was the first Chinese-led conservation project in China and was conducted during a significant transition period in Chinese history, as the country opened its society and science to the world. The project focused on behavioral observation of wild giant pandas, but evolved to include physiology, nutrition, ecology, land-use policy, and population biology as the staff became more aware that the issues with captive pandas (assisted reproduction, unusual diet, and genetic inbreeding) were not the most critical to survival of wild populations. It is evident in this work that, as the scientists gained knowledge, they came to see giant panda conservation as wrapped in landscape ecology and human/wildlife interactions. The group was seminal in the Chinese government's enactment of a logging ban to their study area by advocating for pandas at the national level. The project was summarized in a 2001 volume, but its publication in Mandarin limited its influence on the greater conservation community. This English version of the original work translates, condenses, and refines the original volume, with added contextual chapters on the importance of this volume and how our understanding of giant panda conservation is shaped by this pioneering field work.
