摘要:
根据我国亚洲象分布区域的实际情况，分析了亚洲象的保护现状，认为人口压力、经济发展、生境破碎化是亚洲象保护管理工作中存在的主要问题，而现有的部分法律法规对栖息地的保护起到了一定的制约作用，间接导致了亚洲象栖息地的减少或丧失。要做好亚洲象的管理保护，在保护好现有栖息地的同时，需要对已退化或消失的栖息地进行改造或恢复；做好生物廊道的规划与建设工作，使亚洲象各分布区域的保护区、大面积的国有林能有机的连接起来，扩大亚洲象的栖息地范围；在保护区外围建立保护区与群众生产生活区域的缓冲带，减少人与象的接触机率；做好亚洲象预警工作，减少不必要的人员伤亡；完善有关法律法规，有利于野生动物栖息地的保护管理工作。
We analyzed the current conservation status for Asian elephants based on their distribution areas. Population pressure, economic development, and the habitat fragmentation, are considered as three main problems in the conservation management for Asian elephants. However, some existing laws and regulations impede the habitat conservation to a degree, resulting indirectly in the reduction and loss of the elephants’ habitats. To improve the conservation management for Asian elephants, we propose: 1) reformation and restoration of the degraded and disappeared habitats, as well as protection of the current habitats; 2) planning and construction of the ecologic corridors, aimed to connect the discrete reserve areas and the widespread national forests, so that to expand the habitat range; 3) buffer zones between natural reserves and living areas, to reduce the possibilities of human-elephant conflict; 4) monitoring and warning of elephants, to reduce casualties; 5) improvement of the relevant laws and regulations, to facilitate the conservation management for wildlife habitats.
