As the sun sets, the sunset gently sprinkles on the land of Coco Siri, and the quiet and barren land seems to have a little more life. I stood dumbfounded in the cold wind, the shadow pulled far and wide.... At my feet were my newly dead husband and daughter, who had been devastated beyond recognition, surrounded by the corpses of my tribe, their skins all stripped naked. The air was filled with blood, and the ground was filled with rivers of blood. Under the illumination of the setting sun, it looks even more tragic.
I, the only survivor of this massacre, became the last Tibetan antelope in Coco Ciri.
Just a few years ago, we Tibetan antelopes were a race with as many as 200,000 people, and at that time, several of our tribes raced together on the deserted grassland, covered with smoke and dust, and the loess was full of sky, and the scene was extremely spectacular. Every time the calfing season, as wives, we have to say goodbye to our husbands and go to the north in droves, when thousands of small Tibetan antelopes are born at the same time, the whole land is covered with blood, we return to the south with our children, and our tribe adds vitality and hope.
I used to be incredibly proud to be a Tibetan antelope, and we lived in the distant Coco Siri, where the climate was harsh and the land was barren, but we had amazing endurance. What kind of water and grass lush place does not attract us at all, we often lie leisurely in the snow, or play under the fierce hail. At that time, Coco Ciri was nothing less than a paradise for us, how beautiful the dream-like world used to be.
However, a gunshot pierced the dawn of Coco Ciri and my dream was shattered. When the jeeps galloped on the plateau, my countless companions were also curious to follow him to compete with him, chasing, this is a game we often play...
However, this time we only guessed the beginning correctly, but we couldn't guess the ending, and the muzzle of the black hole hole was quietly lifting...
From that moment on the great slaughter of my race began, and the quiet Coco Ciri was destroyed by the sound of gunfire.
Ah, I distinctly remember that in that summer, in the north of our calving, humans had already prepared a shotgun, and for a time the holy place of calving had become a bloody slaughterhouse, and the corpses of my companions were hundreds of them on the ground, and their skins were completely peeled off, and some were even stripped alive, and I began to regret that I was a Tibetan antelope. We are not very beautiful, we just have a valuable coat, but because of this fur, I don't know how many brothers and sisters have been killed in the past few years, and all the corpses have been skinned!
The pink flesh was covered in blood, and now in Coco Ciri was no longer a beautiful maiden, but a graveyard of terror. Hundreds of thousands of Tibetan antelopes are buried here.
In order to survive, at the end of this summer, our only surviving tribe in several massacres began to migrate, and thousands of Tibetan antelopes began to march north in a mighty way. On the way, I fell out of line due to physical discomfort and pulled in the back to rest. But at this moment, at this time, I heard the sound of dense gunshots in the distance, I closed my eyes in despair, I leaned down and licked my husband, his eyes were still so big, so bright, just full of fear, I went to kiss my little daughter again, and there was only surprise and curiosity in her eyes. Daughter, you are still too young, and your mother knows that you are not going to die and does not understand what is happening.
In fact, in fact, my mother did not understand why, why do human beings, when their relatives die in grief, can they calmly kill the relatives of thousands of others, are they not a little hesitant when they shoot? Don't they have a little mercy when they start to peel their skins? What happens to them when their loved ones are slaughtered and they themselves are powerless to fight back!
At this moment, a sound sounded behind my back, and I slowly turned around, and in front of me was the black muzzle of the gun...
In the fierce sunset, among the corpses of my companions, I showed a bleak smile
O ignorant human beings, how long will you be ignorant? You have destroyed us, and you are destroying yourself. You trample on our corpses today, but one day your bodies will be trampled upon by yourself! Shoot, shoot! Your only contribution is to add another stroke to the list of animals that have become extinct, and to raise the date of your own extinction by another day...
The gun rang out, and I fell to the ground with my eyes wide open, a smile still hanging from the corner of my mouth, but a cloudy teardrop flowed from the corner of my eye...
Tonight's star is so beautiful, looking at it, I seem to see my husband and daughter again, and the coco ciri in the dream. Tens of thousands of Tibetan antelopes gallop across the grassland, dusty. The sun shines on their fur, glowing with golden light...
The withering of a plant and the death of an animal sometimes do not mean the disappearance of a single living organism, but perhaps the extinction of the entire species of this class.
Currently, around the world, biological species are disappearing at an unprecedented rate. Some of these species are extinct.
Ten species of animals extinct in China in the 20th century
Xinjiang tiger (extinct in 1916)
It is native to Lop Nur and the lower reaches of the Tarim River, and was found in Lop Nur and Korla in 1916 by Sven. In his book The Adventures of Lop Nur, the Swedish explorer Sven describes locals describing the remains of tigers being devoured by ants.
Przewalski's wild horse (extinct in the 1960s)
Przewalski's wild horse, also known as the Mongolian wild horse. In 1881, the Russian Przerwalski discovered it in Xinjiang and named it the Przewalski wild horse. In 1890, a German caught 52 wild horses from China, and after a long distance to Hamburg, only 28 were left, of which 8 bred offspring. But the last observation of the real Mustang was recorded in the 1960s, and there has been no trace since.
High-nosed antelope (extinct in the 1960s)
Before the 1960s, there were discontinuous distributions in Xinjiang's Junggar Basin, Beitashan and other areas, and has not been seen since.
Taiwan clouded leopard (extinct in 1972)
Taiwan clouded leopard, also known as Guiwen leopard. Hunting is still recorded in the 1960s, but due to deforestation, the demand for fur and leopard bones plummeted. Since 1972, there have been no leopards on Treasure Island.
Directly affiliated macaque (extinct in the 1980s)
The Zhili macaque was once the northernmost primate in China, and Wuling Mountain in Hebei Province is a national nature reserve established as the northern limit of macaque distribution. After entering the 20th century, people poured into the Wuling Mountain area to cut down, and the directly subordinate macaque monkeys became extinct in the Wuling Mountain.
Bald Stork (extinction date unknown)
The bald stork is a large wader that lives in colonies along the coast and inland swamps and flooding areas. There have been no wild reports since the 1950s, so it is concluded that extinction is possible in China.
Dolphin deer (extinct in the 1970s)
Dolphin deer, found only in China on the border of Gengma and Ximen counties in Yunnan. Scientists found only a handful of them when they surveyed in the 1960s, and when they were surveyed again in the 1980s, they were extinct.
Small-toothed civet (extinct in the 1980s)
The small-toothed grey cat is only distributed in Mengla and Mengyang in Xishuangbanna, southern Yunnan. Except for 2 specimens obtained in Mengla in the 1970s and 3 skins acquired in Jinghong and Mengyang, there was no trace after the 1980s, and it is estimated that it has become extinct.
Sickle-winged chicken (declared extinct in 2000)
Sickle-winged chickens are distributed in the Xiaoxing'an Mountains and the lower reaches of the Heilongjiang River, and are found abroad in Siberia. When the survey was conducted in 1986 and 1987, there was no trace of it. In 2000, Xinhua News Agency released the news that after 5 years of investigation by heilongjiang animals, no sickle-winged chicken was found, and the local people had not seen it for decades.
Crowned duck (extinct in the mid-20th century)
Crowned hemp duck, also known as crested hemp duck, is native to northeast China, Japan, North Korea, and Russia. It was discovered in 1877, 1913 and 1916. Until May 16, 1964, there were three males, two females and one male in Vladivostok, but then mysteriously disappeared. It is estimated that the crested duck became extinct in the mid-20th century.
