When we talk about nationally protected animals, many people's minds pop up with well-known animals such as giant pandas, Tibetan antelopes, and sika deer. But in fact, many inconspicuous small insects are also rare creatures protected by the state, so when we walk in the wild, we should pay more attention to prevent accidentally committing the mistake of "infringing" on the national protection of insects.
1. Twist the tail of the spring dragonfly
This is also known as the pointed arrow fly, which has a narrow distribution range and is very rare. At present, only in Taiwan Province and Fujian Province in China, there is a native pointed board arrow fly, in addition to our country, only a few Southeast Asian countries abroad will have such a sharp board arrow fly.
Although the appearance does not look much different from ordinary dragonflies, in fact, their appearance is still unique under the close inspection, the color of the main body is black, the wings are transparent and slightly brown, and they do not look as weak and weak as ordinary dragonflies. They are insects with incomplete metamorphosis, and the two most important stages they go through in their lives are the larval and adult stages, and they belong to the complete carnivorous organisms, feeding on microorganisms and plankton in the water.
It belongs to China's second-level key protected animals, and if it is illegally killed, it is at risk of being sentenced.
2. Chinese tiger butterfly
Chinese tiger butterflies can be called the largest butterflies in the butterfly, their wings can be 6 cm large after opening, especially the wings of female butterflies can reach 6.5 cm, coupled with their unique patterns, making them particularly dazzling in the wild. In the natural environment, they can be regarded as a vulnerable group, because of their poor flight ability, they are easily hunted and killed by various natural enemies.
3. Shuobu Jia
It makes a living by preying on small organisms such as spiders, and has a good use value in the control of pest organisms. But because they are not good at flying after adults, they can only move on the ground, but fortunately they are agile and can dig tunnels in the soil, and their nocturnal habits make them safer. As the race walkers in the insect world, they are very agile, and both adults and larvae are very fierce, and they are also known as "cheetahs in insects".
These three inconspicuous insects are all rare and protected animals belonging to the country, and I hope that if you are lucky enough to see their figures in the suburbs, you must be merciful under your feet and do not easily trample on such a rare and beautiful little life.
