China has made remarkable progress on panda conservation in past 30 years. However，the need for economic development still overpowers conservation in panda areas. Staying in current strategies and doing business as usual are not able to secure long term survival of wild giant panda. There are 23 isolated panda habitat patches in 3 provinces，4 panda populations have low extinction risk，6 have moderate risk，and the other 13 patches which have less than 10 panda individuals are in high extinction risk. Nature reserves have played notable roles in habitat preservation，but have not been able to prevent outside habitat from isolation and degradation. Threatens from Hydropower development，road construction and tourism replaced commercial logging and became major impact factors in latest 10 years，and will continuously cause habitat lost and panda population decreasing. Long term viability of panda survival requires integrated habitat，and more aggressive and ambitious strategies should be adopted to prevent small population from extinction and ensure population growth. Panda nature reserves need more financial support from central government，and their outcomes should be strictly assessed accordingly. Almost all potential habitats to be restored for corridor building or habitat expansion are currently managed by local communities，thus，support from community should be emphasized，and they will play more and more important roles in panda conservation.
