The earth's biological decline may be inseparable from the impact of human beings, the impact of climate, and the invasion of organisms and other factors, and with the change of climate, the extinction or disappearance of organisms can be said to be very much, while the invasion of organisms is also increasing the impact. According to the latest scientific report, at the end of 2019, we have ushered in another good news of organisms, that is, the creatures located in the Guam region that have been declared "extinct in the wild" for nearly 40 years have appeared again.
After the release of this news, once again showed us a problem, human beings may pay more and more attention to environmental protection, this year there have been many disappeared or declared extinct organisms, may be a "turning point" of ecological change, the turning point of biology.
According to scientific reports, the creature is called "Guam Buzzard", which can be said to be almost "isolated" in the Guam region, and then after the United States inadvertently introduced the "brown snake" in the region, the "Guam Buzzard" was almost completely eliminated, because the "Brown Snake" multiplied in large numbers, devoured all kinds of birds on the island, and the Guam Buzzard, which lost its ability to fly, of course became the primary target of their attack, which led to their disappearance or extinction, so the snake was able to capture this "Guam Buzzard". It also illustrates a powerful snake.
According to scientific reports, there were only 21 "Guam buzzards" left at the least, and they were saved by biological conservationists, so they were listed as "wild extinctions" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. And the bird has not been found later, and it reappeared in the wild, also under the cultivation of humans, so it is artificial intervention to let it survive, which is not a simple period. According to scientific statistics, the total number of "Guam buzzards" in the Guam region today is about 200, about 200 species of creatures roam near Rota, and 60 to 80 species of animals live on Cocos Island, a small place near Guam.
The "Guam Buzzard" can be said to be a unique creature of the Guam region, it is small, weighing about 0.5 kg and about 0.3 meters long, so it is indeed relatively small. The creature's appearance is very distinctive, with many stripes on the body, so it is very easy to distinguish. In general, the "Guam Buzzard" has black stripes on the upper body, gray or grayish blue on the face and the front of the lower body, and the male and female plumage are similar. As we said above, although it belongs to the creatures endemic to Guam, it exists in the Pacific islands. For example, China's Dongsha Islands, Xisha Islands and other places are distributed, but here it needs to be emphasized that they are the indigenous people of Guam and are a bird that cannot fly.
The reproductive ability of guam buzzards is relatively strong, laying 6 to 7 eggs per clutch, so it is extinct by snakes, which also shows that there are really many snakes in the Guam region, which mainly feeds on insects, snails and various fruits, and sometimes eats carrion. They are mainly active in the water and grass of the swamps and run quickly. This is basically a situation of this creature, so in any case, the rebirth of the "Guam Buzzard" can be said to be a good news, and the ecological impact on the Guam region is very large. Now under the influence of humans, there has been a rapid growth in the wild, at this time, many science enthusiasts will say, will not be eaten by the "brown snake" again, this problem is unknown, do not know whether humans hunt "brown snake".
Follow-up if there is a new news of "Guam Buzzard", I will continue to follow up, in today's most of the creatures are in a state of disappearance or extinction, it can be seen that human salvation is still necessary, more and more creatures appear is the need to "help" under the permission of natural conditions, so that for vulnerable groups, there may be a growth model, and the balance of organisms will be better.
