Abstract: The paper aims at study the endangered mechanism and protection strategy of Tetraogallus,restore the normal function of Tetraogallus in the ecosystem, achieve the goal of protecting biodiversity and maintaining ecological balance,the paper summarizes the conservation biology research of Tetraogallus himalayensis, Tetraogallus tibetanus and Tetraogallus altaicus in china.The results show that Some breakthroughs have been made in the field distribution, field ecology, artificial domestication and utilization value, origin and evolution, but there still have some controversies in origin and evolution of Tetraogallus and the selection of food habits, and they have some obstacles in captive breeding and development and utilization. In the future, it is necessary to use modern field monitoring techniques to assess the population of Tetraogallus; use resequencing technology to study the origin and evolution of Tetraogallus; use metagenomics techniques to study the intestinal flora of Tetraogallus and their dietary preference; and apply modern breeding techniques to improve the egg production and reproductive performance of captive Tetraogallus; use remote sensing technology to assess the habitat of Tetraogallus and focus on the medicinal mechanism of Tetraogallus.
