红外相机拍到的四川山鹧鸪。沐川县融媒体中心供图 为何打造？ ●目前，四川山鹧鸪七成以上种群分布在四川，主要见于屏山、沐川、马边、峨边、甘洛和金口河等区 （县），正面临扩散瓶颈 如何打造？ 四川山鹧鸪是我国西南山地的特有鸟类，为国家一级重点保护野生动物，仅分布于四川中南部，及云南东北 部的少数山地森林中，因其数量稀少，被誉为"鸟中大熊猫"。 目前，四川山鹧鸪七成以上种群分布在四川，主要见于屏山、沐川、马边、峨边、甘洛和金口河等区 （县）。为何分布如此局限？这与该物种正面临的扩散瓶颈有关：在四川，四川山鹧鸪主要栖息于海拔800—2500 米的山地常绿阔叶林和常绿落叶阔叶混交林中，林下的八月竹是其繁殖栖息地的关键植被。"研究发现，四川山鹧 鸪与八月竹高度伴生。而这类竹子分布范围有限，可能在一定程度上限制了其种群扩散。"四川师范大学生命科学 学院教授付义强分析。 ●实施人工林改培，模拟、还原四川山鹧鸪适宜的生存环境，通过科学的人工干预提升栖息地质量 ●加强就地保护，区域内一线职工在做好日常巡护外，还会在每年的繁殖季、越冬季开展专项巡护，保障四 川山鹧鸪种群安全繁殖和越冬，以及栖息地不受人为破坏 "长势不错。"日前，在 ...
