The population of Amji's salamander, a species endemic to Anji County in east China's Zhejiang Province, has seen a remarkable increase. From fewer than 60 individuals in 2006, their numbers have grown to approximately 600 today.
This significant growth highlights the effectiveness of ongoing conservation efforts aimed at protecting this once critically endangered species. The success story of Amji's salamanders underscores the importance of habitat preservation and dedicated environmental programs in fostering biodiversity.
Researchers and conservationists are optimistic that with continued support, the Amji's salamander population will continue to thrive, ensuring the survival of this unique amphibian in its natural habitat.
