云南昭通黑颈鹤保护志愿者协会于1998年12月4日大山包发现黑颈鹤十周年纪念日经民政部门批准正式成立，协会宗旨以保护世界珍稀濒危物种、国家一级保护野生动物、“鸟类熊猫”黑颈鹤为主拓展为“保护野生动物，维护生态平衡”，以“弘扬绿色文化、倡导绿色文明、建设绿色家园、感受绿色时尚”为发展方向，以实现“人与自然和谐发展”的美好愿景为终极目标。

协会成立十二年来，在越冬栖息地采取多种措施持续开展了“滇东北黑颈鹤及其自然生态环境保护及宣传教育项目”；积极争得了国际爱护动物基金会、全球绿色资助基金、英国环境发展基金等国际环保组织对滇东北黑颈鹤保护工作的援助及支持；先后在北京大学、浙江、广西、云南各高校作数十次环保宣讲；募集发放“妙舍助学基金”，关注社会弱势群体。协会领导利用参加中国生物圈保护区网络公众环境教育研讨会、国际鹤类学术研讨会、中华慈善大会等盛会的时机向外界朋友大力宣传倡议保护黑颈鹤，参与发起成立“联合国可持续发展教育十年”中国民间协作网络。

通过十二年来坚持不懈的环保宣传教育工作及滇东北黑颈鹤保护行动，黑颈鹤是国家一级保护野生动物及世界濒危物种的定位深入人心，社会民众的爱鸟护鹤意识得到有效增强，到大山包越冬的黑颈鹤数量从1992年的350只增长到现在的1200余只，大山包成为全球黑颈鹤东部越冬种群密度最大、数量最多的地方，并于2003年1月被国务院批准升格为国家级自然保护区，2004年12月被列为国际重要湿地，加入了东北亚鹤类网络；昭阳区荣膺“中国黑颈鹤之乡”，极大地提高了“黑颈鹤”、“大山包”在国内外的知名度和美誉度。协会荣获2001及2006年度福特汽车环保奖、首届“中华慈善奖”及2006年度中国青年丰田环境保护奖，被评为中国十大杰出志愿服务集体、云南省优秀社会团体、全国先进民间组织及全国先进社会组织；黑颈鹤保护志愿者孙德辉、王昭荣、钱颖、王高祥、毛利辉、陈维镖等个人共获得了近20项荣誉，为西南地区珍稀禽类的保护做出了杰出的贡献，在中国野生动物保护界及民间环保组织中产生了广泛影响。

Profile on the Yunnan Province, Zhaotong City’s Volunteers’

Association for the Protection of Black-Necked Cranes

 

              (Translated by Jason Wang (王则彬), Geoff Huang (黄华翎) and Amy Yao (姚慈怡) of Duke University)

 

China’s Ministry of Civil Affairs (MCA) approved the official establishment of the Volunteers’ Association for the Protection of Black-Necked Cranes on the 10-year anniversary date of the discovery of the crane in Yunnan Province’s Zhaotong City on December 4, 1998.

 

The Association aims to protect the world's rare and endangered species. As a Grade One State Protected species, the Black-Necked Crane is known as the “Giant Panda of the bird world.” It is a main factor in the development and expansion of key goals such as “Protection of wild animals, maintenance of ecological balance” and “Promoting and advocating a Green Culture, building a Green Homeland, living in a Green Era” in order to achieve the ultimate visionary goal of “harmonious development between man and nature.”

 

In the twelve years since the Association has been founded, various measures have been taken at the winter habitat of the Black-Necked Cranes to sustain the continuing project of, “Protection of the Black-Necked Cranes of northeast Yunnan and their natural ecological environment, and development of public education programs.”

 

The Association has actively obtained support and assistance from: the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), the Global Greengrants Fund, and the UK’s International Sustainable Development Fund, among other environmental protection agencies.

 

The Association has gone from Beijing University to universities in Zhejiang Province, Guangxi Province, and Yunnan Province giving dozens of presentations on environmental preservation and raising grants for their “Wonderful World Education Fund,” helping teach people about at risk communities within society.

 

Association leaders attended China’s Network of Biosphere Reservations’ public environmental education seminars, International Crane Symposiums, Chinese Charity Meetings, etc. and took advantage of the opportunity at these major gatherings to appeal to their supporters across the globe and vigorously propagate their proposals for the protection of the Black-necked Cranes, as well as join the efforts of China’s nongovernmental organizations in initiating the establishment of “United Nation’s Decade of Sustainable Development Education.”

 

Through 12 years of unrelenting work in promoting and educating on environmental protection movements along with the movement in northeast Yunnan Province to protect the black-necked cranes, black-necked cranes are now considered “Grade One State Protected” in China and are almost considered one of the world’s endangered species, demonstrating their success in finally impressing upon the hearts of the people.

 

Further, society’s love for birds and desire to protect the black-neck cranes has allowed overall awareness to effectively increase. The number of black-neck cranes flying to the Dashanbao area in Yunnan for winter has grown from 350 in 1992 to over 1200 presently. As a result, the Dashanbao area has become the location of the densest, as well as the largest, population of hibernating black-necked cranes in the entire world. As of January 2003 was approved by the State Council to be promoted to the status of national nature reserve, and in December of 2004 was classified as an internationally important wetlands location and became a member northeast Asia’s “Crane Network”.

 

Shaoyang district awarded “Chinese black-neck crane natural habitat” greatly increased the “black-neck crane’s and Dashanbao’s” popularity and reputation domestically. The association won the 2001 to 2006 Ford environmental award. Awarded the first “Chinese philanthropical award” in 2006 from Toyota for young environmental protection and was regarded as top a 10 volunteering organization. Additionally, named as the Yuannan excellent province societal organization, a contemporary non-governmental and societal organization. Black-neck crane protection volunteers Sun Dehui, Wang Zhaorong, Qian Ying, Wang Gaoxiang, Mao Lihui, Chen Weibiao etc. have received roughly 20 awards, and have made great contribution for fowl protection and have made broad influence in the Chinese wild animal protection organization.
