Asian elephants, a pivotal species in the rainforest ecosystem, are under first-class national protection in China. The elephants are mostly found across Yunnan. In 2011, 18 Asian elephants came to Jiangcheng Hani and Yi Autonomous County. Over the past ten years, more than 20 baby elephants have been born here. Local government has insured the farmers to protect their properties, and set up a team to observe the Asian elephants day and night to ensure the safety of villagers. (Xinhua/Fei Maohua)

Zhao Shiwei is a staff member of the crane breeding and protection station in Liaohekou National Nature Reserve. He graduated from college in 1993 and started to work at the nature reserve in Panjin City, which sits along a primary bird migration corridor, welcoming a myriad of wild migratory birds to breed and winter annually. The endangered red-crowned crane is under first-class state protection, dubbed one of the most sensitive indicator species of a wetland ecosystem. In 1996, Zhao and his colleagues successfully hatched three baby red-crowned cranes, and gradually explored a complete set of breeding methods for red-crowned cranes since then.

                  (230915) -- GANNAN, Sept. 15, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Villagers sow grass seeds on a grassland management point along the Yellow River in Oula Town of Maqu County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, northwest China's Gansu Province, July 6, 2023. Located on the northeast rim of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Maqu County boasts an extensive presence of grasslands and wetlands. Maqu, meaning "the Yellow River" in the Tibetan language, is the only county named after "Yellow River" in China. Covering an area of 5.62 million mu (about 374,667 hectares), the Maqu wetlands serve as an important water reserve and eco-zone in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. However, the Maqu wetlands once suffered from shrinking lake areas, grass degradation, and decreasing water conservation capacity. In order to protect the Maqu wetlands from degrading further, Maqu County has continued to implement integrated conservation and restoration projects of its environment in recent years. The wetlands are expanding with increasing wate

                    (230815) -- XINING, Aug. 15, 2023 (Xinhua) -- A group of Tibetan antelopes pass through the Qinghai-Tibet Highway and head towards the Sanjiangyuan area in northwest China's Qinghai Province, July 28, 2023. Located in Sanjiangyuan National Park, Hoh Xil is an important habitat for Tibetan antelopes which enjoy first-class state protection in China. Around May each year, tens of thousands of pregnant Tibetan antelopes start their migration to Hoh Xil to give birth, leaving with their offspring in late July. The Drolkar Lake area in Hoh Xil is a crucial birthplace of the species. Renowned as one of the world's most breathtaking migrations of hoofed animals, this majestic journey of Tibetan antelopes has to confront with extreme weather and invasion of wild animals. Patrollers of Hoh Xil have been guarding Tibetan antelopes for decades. Hoh Xil stands as China's largest world natural heritage site, maintaining a high-altitude ecosystem and iconic species of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Since the establishment o
