ecological environment
Since the establishment of Zhangye Dongdashan Nature Reserve in 1980 and the implementation of the national natural forest protection project, the barren mountains suitable for forest in the forest region have been restored and protected, and the ecology in the reserve has been greatly improved. The forest area has expanded from 1667 hectares when the nature reserve was established to 2133 hectares. At the same time, the population of wild animals and plants in the reserve has increased significantly, especially the rapid reproduction of sheep, which has posed a threat to the grassland
The number of blue sheep increased sharply
Dongdashan nature reserve is located 30 kilometers northeast of Ganzhou District, Zhangye City, covering an area of 5200 hectares. It is a provincial nature reserve established with the approval of the provincial government in 1980, and was assigned to Qilian Mountain National Nature Reserve in Gansu Province in 1988.
In recent years, the ecology of the nature reserve has been greatly improved, the natural forest vegetation has been restored, and the number of wild animals and plants has also increased significantly. It is understood that there are 98 species of plants belonging to 26 families in Dongdashan forest area, such as Picea crassifolia, Sabina przewalskii, Populus davidiana, Salix kaempferi, Buddleja inebriana, Stipa krylovii, etc. There are 80 species of resident birds, including 35 species of summer migratory birds, 33 species of resident birds and 12 species of migratory birds. Golden Eagle, kite and dark bellied blood chicken are listed in the first and second level national protection. Although no detailed investigation has been carried out, there are at least ten species of mammals, such as Gansu red deer and blue sheep. According to Li Gang, deputy director of Dongdashan nature reserve management station, the growth rate of national second-class protected animals in the reserve is the most obvious, with more than 3000 at present, and the density of some areas is as high as 40-60 sheep / km2. Before the station was built, the number of sheep in the whole forest area was less than 300. Forest rangers told reporters that when they patrol the mountains, they often see groups of sheep.
Blue sheep pose a threat to grassland
Luo Tianwei, deputy secretary of Dongdashan nature reserve management station, told reporters that since the implementation of the national natural forest protection project, the ecological recovery of Dongdashan Nature Reserve has been good, and the number of wild animals and plants has increased sharply, which makes forest protection personnel feel gratified. At the same time, the rapid growth of the number of blue sheep also worries them. More than 3000 blue sheep eat thousands of kilograms of forage every day. During the drought period, the phenomenon of blue sheep eating young trees and seedlings is serious, which does great harm to the nature reserve.
In this regard, some ecological workers put forward to carry out reasonable hunting activities to reduce the pressure of grassland. It is understood that Dongdashan Nature Reserve has the conditions to carry out hunting, and has held several hunting activities on a trial basis. It has successfully received 9 foreign hunting teams (19 people) from the United States, Germany, Mexico, Argentina and one domestic hunting team. It has successively killed 16 rock sheep, 5 Gansu red deer, and captured 200 rock sheep. But at present, the official international hunting activities have not been approved by the higher authorities.
