Chapter 311 (2/2)
Crested Ibis, do you know? ”
”Yes, the red bird, isn't it!”
The protection of Crested Ibis is a model in China. Fang Ye broke up with uncle: ”in fact, crested ibis was once on the verge of extinction!
Since the mid-20th century, due to environmental damage and lack of nesting trees, the number of Crested Ibis has decreased sharply and disappeared one after another in Russia and the Korean Peninsula. After China captured the last Crested Ibis in Gansu in 64, we haven't heard from them for 20 years.
When the investigation team found them again in Yang County in 1981, a pair of adult birds perched in the tree, with a long beak and red head, a touch of light red on their feathers, three cubs in the nest were crying for food, and a pair of adult birds wandered nearby.
This is the last seven left!
In 40 years, it has changed from seven to more than 5000. ”
”Lying trough!”
Uncle stared and thought it was a thrilling story!
Fang ye said, ”the process of protection is not plain sailing. In order to protect Crested Ibis, Yangxian restricted farmers from using pesticides. At that time, many farmers had resistance. How can they kill insects without using pesticides?
Unexpectedly, this is also an opportunity. After not using pesticides, farmers use insect trap lamps to kill insects. Results farmers in Yang county took the lead in the production of organic agricultural products and created a brand of Crested Ibis organic products.
Not only the environment is better, but also the farmers are richer. Now the local people are proud of the Crested Ibis! ”
The uncle was filled with emotion: ”ah, great! If only the Green Peacock could have such a miracle. ”
”Miracle...”
Fangye and uncle talked all the way!
When getting off the plane, I exchanged a wechat with my uncle. He said that he would go to fangye's zoo if he had a chance!
When waiting for the passage, Fang ye saw the pattern of peacocks printed on the transparent glass window, and tourists stopped here to take a happy group photo.
But it's a blue peacock.
Fang Ye looked at it and couldn't help shaking his head. He sighed in his heart, ”I'm afraid there aren't many people who even know the Green Peacock now!”
I feel more and more responsible for this trip.
After leaving the airport, he called Gu Shi: ”Miss Gu, I'm out of the airport. Where are you? Oh, oh, oh! I'll be right there! ”
After a while, I saw Gus at the door of a KFC. He looked introverted with glasses!
Fang Ye quickly took Gu Shi's hand and shook it: ”Mr. Gu!”
Gu Shi was a little embarrassed: ”president Fang said don't call me a teacher, just call my name!”
”OK, let's find a table to sit down first! Eat and say. ”
