The partridge (scientific name: Excalfactoria chinensis), also known as the guinea fowl, is a small land bird belonging to the order Galliformes and the family Phasianidae. The following is a detailed introduction to the protection level of partridges in China:
According to China’s Wildlife Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China and the List of National Protected Animals of China issued by the State Forestry and Grassland Administration of China, the partridge is listed as a second-level protected animal in China.
Second-level protected animals refer to precious species that are protected by the state, and their hunting, breeding, domestication and use are restricted by laws and regulations. This level of protection aims to protect partridge populations and habitats to maintain ecological balance, prevent overhunting and illegal trade, and promote their healthy reproduction.
The partridge is a bird endemic to China, and its distribution is mainly concentrated in the hills, mountains and shrub areas of southern and southeastern China. They are characterized by short tails and rounded wings, and are small in size, with an average body length of 15-20 cm. Male partridges have dark plumage on the head and chest with bright blue skin patches, while females have duller plumage.
Their numbers are gradually declining as partridges face major threats including habitat fragmentation and disturbance from human activities, including deforestation, scrub clearing and farmland expansion. Therefore, the purpose of classifying the partridge as a second-level protected animal in China is to ensure the protection, management and restoration of its habitat, strengthen the crackdown on illegal hunting and illegal trade, and promote scientific research and publicity and education to promote the protection of the partridge.
Protecting secondary protected animals requires the joint efforts of government departments, environmental organizations, scientific research institutions and the public. This includes protecting partridges and their habitats by establishing nature reserves, formulating management plans and policies, conducting population monitoring, and promoting ecological agriculture, while also strengthening public environmental awareness and reducing negative impacts on partridges.
In short, as a second-level protected animal in China, partridges are protected by law, and protection measures are implemented in China to ensure the health of their populations and habitats.
