Not long ago, there was a sad news on the Weibo hot search list: the Chinese white sturgeon has not survived in 2020, it is extinct. This news has attracted the attention of many people, and in addition to grief, they have taken the initiative to forward it to the circle of friends, feeling sorry and lost for the extinction of the white sturgeon. The white sturgeon, with the title of "panda in the water", can be seen from this name. The white sturgeon, which lives mainly in the Yangtze River basin, has been hunted and killed by fishermen, resulting in a sharp decline in numbers. Coupled with the establishment of the Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze River, the breeding and survival of the white sturgeon has been affected. Since 2003, it has been difficult to see the white sturgeon again. Unexpectedly, the news that the white sturgeon was seen again was the news of its extinction.
The extinction of the white sturgeon is not unique, according to a survey report released by the United Nations Biodiversity Organization, every 1 minute in the world, 3 species of organisms go extinct from the earth. This is a very terrible speed, which will cause the loss of nature and the decline of human society, and then the real end will be the end. Extinction is undoubtedly an extremely sad issue, and whenever news reports such news, I feel a pang of pain in my heart. The most important thing at present is to recognize the seriousness of the problem and to find ways to prevent it from getting worse. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the development of the natural world, everything is in a state of motion, there are biological extinctions, there are biological rebirths, and then we will understand what new species are in recent years?
The first, the mini chameleon. For the chameleon, everyone will not feel strange, the military mini suit, mini suit is designed according to the principle of chameleon. In 2012, scientists discovered four miniature chameleons in Madagascar, the smallest of which was the pygmy leaf chameleon, which did not exceed 3 cm in length. Why is this chameleon so weak? Experts explain that it may be because the island's limited resources cannot satisfy the appetite of chameleons, so new species have evolved. However, because the mini chameleon has not yet attracted the attention of the government, its survival status is dangerous and threatened by deforestation.
The second, the Dabanuri orangutan. Some time ago, scientists discovered a new species of orangutan in central Indonesia: the Dabanuri orangutan. It is the third brightly colored orangutan found after Sumatran orangutans and Bornean orangutans. But the number of these orangutans is very small, there are fewer than 800 in the world, and local governments must take effective measures to protect them well.
The third species, the Wakanda silk head fish. This is a new species discovered in 2019, and they live in a relatively remote environment, reducing the likelihood of detection. According to the data, the Wakanda silk head fish is mainly active on the east coast of Zanzibar in Tanzania, living 40-50 meters below sea level. This depth is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and if professional instruments are used, they may not be discovered now.
As can be seen from the picture, the scales of the Wakanda silk head fish are very bright, as if dyed. The traces of this fish have been published, and for them, it is not known whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, and it is hoped that the government can take relevant measures to protect them. Otherwise, greedy people will definitely catch it for ornamental purposes. Although human beings have become more and more intimate with the natural world in the process of evolution, there are many mysteries that have not yet been solved, and many creatures are still hidden, which requires us to spend more time to discover, which is also one of the joys of life. Friends, you know what other interesting creatures, you may wish to leave a message below, let's discuss it together.
