      Giant Panda released into the wild
    [ 2006-04-28 08:59 ]

    隨著大熊貓“祥祥”消失在臥龍的莽莽群山,全球首只圈養(yǎng)大熊貓邁出了其獨(dú)立生存的第一步。此次放歸行動(dòng)不僅標(biāo)志著大熊貓保護(hù)工作開始從加強(qiáng)野外救護(hù)、強(qiáng)化人工圈養(yǎng)階段向野化放歸新階段的邁進(jìn),同時(shí)也標(biāo)志著中國(guó)其它瀕危野生動(dòng)物野化放歸工作的開始,是中國(guó)野生動(dòng)物保護(hù)史上的里程碑。

     

    Panda Xiang Xiang, a tranquiliser dart still hanging from his shoulder, is released from the Wolong Giant Panda Protection and Research Center in southwest China's Sichuan province April 27, 2006. The four-year-old male giant panda, which was raised at the centre, was the first to be released out of more than 180 captive-bred pandas worldwide, China Daily reported. [Newsphoto]

    He became the first-ever human-raised giant panda to be released into the wild, and had to undergo three years of survival training. He will be monitored through a global positioning device attached to a collar.

    Facing his new world, the panda hesitated for a second on Friday then wandered into bamboo groves 10 metres away.

    Born into the China Giant Panda Protection and Research Centre in Wolong in 2001, Xiang Xiang was selected from more than 100 giant pandas bred in captivity for natural habitat training, mostly because he was strong and healthy, said experts.

    He learned how to build a den, forage for food and mark his territory, and developed defensive skills by howling and biting, said Zhang Hemin, head of the panda research centre.

    Zhang said they chose to release Xiang Xiang now because in late April his favourite food, bamboo shoots, are sprouting.

    Xiang Xiang faces many challenges, one of which is parasitic infection, said Zhou Xiaoping, deputy chief engineer at the centre.

    "Parasites can be fatal for a giant panda," Zhou said. "The bamboo shoots they eat in captivity are disinfected and scientists regularly check pandas for parasites."

    There are more than 180 giant pandas living in captivity, and 1,590 in the wild, mostly in Sichuan.

    Xiang Xiang's liberation marks a significant change in saving the endangered species, with the move to training them to live in the wild, said Zhao Xuemin, deputy head of the State Forestry Administration.

    Chinese scientists had previously given priority to artificial-breeding and protection, Zhao said.

    Plans are afoot to release other endangered species into the wild such as Chinese alligators, wild horses and red ibis (a kind of bird).
