Chinese pangolin, Zhu Xi, white cheeks gibbon ... On the 12th, the "Wild Beauty -China Wildlife Exhibition" was launched at the Beijing Natural Museum. 50 wild animal specimens showed the beauty of wild nature for the audience.

The curator Li Yimeng introduced that my country has a vast territory, complex terrain, and diverse climate. It provides good conditions for the reproduction of various wild animals. It is one of the countries with the most wild animals in the world. "There are more than 6,300 wildlife in our country, of which more than 8,190 types of vertebrates are more than 14 % of the number of vertebrates in the world." Animals, reptiles, birds and mammals. "More than 90 % of animals are rare national first and secondary protection animals."

In the exhibition hall, 50 specimens have different postures and are agile. The white cheeks and the arms hanging the branches, round eyes looked at the distance vigilantly, and the naughty cub climbed her mother, seemed to be coquettish in her mother's arms; under the body of the female Chinese pangolin bow, a pangolin baby was Zhengzheng. Looking up to find breast milk; the goshawk with wings, tightly protecting our loot under the claws ... "We did not put the exhibits stiffly, but it was naturally presented. The real life. "Said Xu Yanjing.

Many exhibits have also echoed my country's achievements in the protection of wildlife in recent years. In the exhibition hall, a shiny Pu's Mustang attracted a lot of audiences to stop. Li Yimeng said that in the 1970s, Pu's Mustang had been extinct in my country; after that, my country re -introduced it and implemented a series of scientific protection measures. Today, the number of Mustang in my country has exceeded 700 horses. Not far away from the Pu's Mustang, Zhu Xi, who was white, was dancing. It is also the "flagship species" of wild animals in my country: In 1981, there were only 7 species left in my country. More than 5,000.

The last part of the exhibition is in the form of a panel to sound the alarm bell on the impact of human activities on the survival of wild animals. "We hope that the audience can further enhance the awareness of protecting biodiversity and ecological environment while feeling the beauty of wild nature." Li Yimeng said.
