在柬埔寨进行的遗传研究显示,亚洲大象人口比预期的要多,为养护提供了希望。 Genetic study in Cambodia reveals larger Asian elephant population than expected, offering hope for conservation.

最近根据动物和植物对柬埔寨北部平原进行的一项遗传研究发现,亚洲大象人口比以前想象的要多,估计约有51人。 A recent genetic study in Cambodia's northern plains by Fauna & Flora found a more robust population of Asian elephants than previously believed, estimating around 51 individuals. 研究人员利用在三个野生动物保护区收集的大象粪便的DNA,确定了人口的遗传多样性和大小,这对长期生存至关重要。 Using DNA from elephant dung collected in three wildlife sanctuaries, researchers determined the population's genetic diversity and size, crucial for long-term survival. 这一发现为物种的恢复带来了希望,并为养护努力提供了宝贵数据。 This finding offers hope for the species' recovery and provides valuable data for conservation efforts.
