A pilot scheme to build an administration of giant panda national park has been approved. The scheme will form a cross-provincial national park that would unite more than 80 fragmented habitats scattered in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, Northwest China’s Shaanxi province and Gansu province, with an area of 27,134 square kilometers.
