THE number of wild pandas in northwest China’s Gansu Province rose 15 percent to 132 between 2001 and the end of last year, a survey said on Friday.
The area covered by the bears rose 3.3 percent in the period, though the study warned that they had been disturbed by the development of power plants, roads and high-voltage transmission lines. “Human activity and the fragmentation of habitats have threatened giant pandas’ survival,” said Duan Changsheng, deputy director of Gansu’s forestry department.
