中国建立“冷冻动物园”浅析

Conservation of Wild Animal Resources and the "Frozen Zoo"

生物多样性保护和野生动物保护是目前人类普遍关注的问题。野生动物多样性保护有多种形式,"冷冻动物园"是其中的一个重要手段。该手段具有现代化、高容量等优点。目前已有多个国家建立了"冷冻动物园"。中国物种资源丰富,有许多特有物种,但很多物种已经濒临灭绝。本文根据我国动物资源的现状,针对建立"冷冻动物园"所需的技术条件、物质资源等方面进行了分析,提出了建立国家级的"冷冻动物园"的必要性和可行性。

Conservation of wildlife biodiversity is a concern widely held.There are many forms for wildlife biodiversity conservation, one of which is cryogenically preserved animals or tissues,or＂frozen zoos＂.Modern frozen zoos have high capacity and many countries have adopted this technology.In China,there are abundant wildlife resources and many indigenous species, but many of these face the threat of extinction.We conclude that it is necessary and feasible to found a national level frozen zoo in China.
