Habitat evaluation for Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) in Lincang: Conservation planning for an extremely small population of elephants in China

2016-06-01

Fewer than 250 Asian elephants remain in China, occupying fragmented habitats of Yunnan Province. One such fragmented population of 18–23 individuals occupies the Nangunhe Nature Reserve Area in Lincang City, Yunnan Province, China.
