Surviving Status and Conservation of Crossoptilon auritum in South Gansu
From 2007 to 2008, surviving status of Crossoptilon auritum was investigated in Zecha forest zone, Gansu. The results showed that egg and fledgling of this pheasant were endangered by crow and raptor. Moreover, numerous crows (78.7%), serious human interference and habitat loss in nature reserve were main dangerous factors for its wild population. Therefore, conservation measures for Crossoptilon auritum were put forward.
