China has established a relatively complete system of nature reserves. Large areas of natural ecosystems have been systematically and completely protected, and wildlife habitats have been effectively improved. Since the 1960s, China has established 67 giant panda nature reserves. Since the establishment of China's first Wolong Nature Reserve in 1963, Sichuan has established 46 giant panda nature reserves. The implementation of the Tianbao project, returning farmland to forest, artificial breeding research, the rewilding and repatriation experiments, the protection and restoration of the giant panda habitat, and the recovery and growth of wild and captive giant panda populations have been realized.

As of July last year, the number of giant pandas in the wild has reached more than 1,800, and the level of threat has been reduced from endangered to vulnerable.
