The methodology of Rapid Assessment and Prioritization of Protected Areas Management (RAPPAM) recommended by World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA) and World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) was used in investigating and analyzing pressures, threats and trends of the protected areas in Northeast China. The results showed that the following six factors had broader sphere of influence, affecting at higher degree and lasting a longer time in the 14 threatening factors: fires, deforestation, poaching, non-timber forest products (NTFP), tourism and grazing. Protected areas should focus on control of these threatening factors. Therefore, the future management of protected areas should strengthen monitoring of fires, deforestation, poaching, NTFP, etc. Meanwhile, protected areas should develop relevant policies and take appropriate measures to effectively control and reduce the negative impact of eco-tourism to improve the effectiveness of management.
