Natural Resource Dependence of Communities around the Giant Panda Protected Land Based on Livelihood Capital

As the flagship species of biodiversity protection, the giant panda has an umbrella protection function. China is committed to building a natural protection system with national parks as the main body to achieve sustainable development. In this paper, the sustainable livelihood analysis framework is...
