Chapter 690: Chapter 690: Butterfly Pavilion Design
Complete the animal clues to help the gibbon matchmaking, and the reward is a certificate of membership of the World Zoo Association!
With this, you can exchange some rare animals with foreign zoos.
Fang Ye sat at his desk, thinking about the next development of the zoo.
In the past, I made a small fire abroad, and the gift package rewarded 20w green leaf coins, and planned to build a rhino museum and a butterfly museum.
However, during the National Day, I was busy with the engagement, and took the parents to play in the zoo for a few days. After that, I did a safety drill. Now I am idle, and I can slowly consider the construction of the exhibition hall.
The rhino imported is the southern white rhino, which is also the most common rhino in domestic zoos.
The white rhino is not white, it is just a translation misunderstanding. It originally meant "wide-mouthed rhino".
As for the northern white rhinoceros, with the death of the last male northern white rhinoceros "Sudan" in the world, there are now two females left in the world. It can be said that when these two died, the northern white rhinoceros was completely extinct.
In fact, there used to be rhinos on the land of China! There are related records in the Warring States Period. In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a "wrong gold and silver moire bronze rhinoceros", which is exactly the same as the details of the Sumatran rhino. The image is very realistic. At first glance, you have seen a real rhino. It may be made by a craftsman against the corpse of a rhino. .
There is no accurate statistics on the number of Summon rhinos left in the world. If we count the wild and artificially reared rhinos, if the most pessimistic, there may only be more than 30 left, or they are scattered in multiple habitats.
The fortunes of Blue Star and some species on Earth are somewhat different, but most of them are still similar.
Such as Baiji Dolphin.
On the earth, in the 1970s, when the construction team of the Yangtze River Waterway Bureau used explosives to clear the river in a section of the Honghu Lake, five baiji dolphins, four females and one male, were killed on the spot.
It was at a special time at that time, and scientific research and protection work was also greatly impacted. It is not uncommon to kill a few wild animals at all.
When there were only seven Crested Ibis left, they were discovered and protected in time, and they multiplied to several thousand. It was not discovered at the beginning, and it may have been extinct silently.
This key node affects the fate of an ethnic group.
When Fang Ye crossed over the Baiji dolphins on the earth, it had been a long time since no one had witnessed them, and they could basically be declared extinct.
Of course, although there are still some baiji dolphins on the Blue Star, excessive fishing, frequent shipping, dam construction, and water pollution, these large environments have not changed, and the fate is not much better. Now the number is estimated to be only about 20.
But there is hope.
Pulling away.
With such a small number of Sumen rhinoceros, even if Fang Ye had a certificate, it was impossible to bring in two.
Therefore, the southern white rhinoceros was introduced honestly.
The design of the Rhino Pavilion is still very simple!
Unlike hippos that need an underwater environment, nor do cats need complex vegetation.
The most basic is a large event venue.
First come a piece of green grass.
Rhinoceros can adapt to a wide temperature range. Just be careful not to get too hot in summer on the seaside. There are shading facilities in the sports field and mud baths to cool down.
The skin of a rhino is very thick. It needs relatively hard surfaces such as stumps, soil cliffs, rocks, etc. to rub the skin against itching or get rid of parasites. You can also mark the territory on it.
So put some fixed thick stumps of different heights in the sports field for the rhinoceros to scratch it.
Put some movable stones and logs so that the rhino can use the horns to move and play, which is also very helpful for the development of rhino horns.
With simple enrichment facilities, the rhino will be very comfortable to live in.
However, one thing to note is that in the selection of insulation materials for rhino venues, wood cannot be treated with anti-corrosion, because rhinos will gnaw these woods.
On the popular science exhibition board, introduce the Summon rhinoceros that once existed in China.
The location of the Butterfly Pavilion is next to the Wolong Bamboo Sea theme, opposite the stream!
The design is somewhat similar to the two climbing halls.
The ceiling uses a translucent acrylic sheet to allow ultraviolet rays to pass through.
It will not be completely enclosed to form a greenhouse. The walls are grids for ventilation. The wind can help the flowers transmit the smell, and it also has a more natural feeling.
Some flowers and plants are planted inside. The most important thing in the Butterfly Pavilion is the plants!
Fang Ye carefully selected and matched.
Sage, the vertical stems are covered with small blue-purple flowers, like stars in the sky, with a strong fragrance.
Milkweed, green leaves, clustered with small red and yellow flowers. When Wang Yan talked to him about the monarch butterfly, he mentioned the importance of milkweed. The leaves can be eaten by butterfly larvae. Flowers are an important source of nectar for butterflies, so they are also called butterfly grass!
Dragon Boat Flower, with low branches and leaves, cross-shaped petals, bright red, orange and yellow colors, and dense blooming. It is a very beautiful ornamental flower. Such brightly colored flowers are also very fond of butterflies.
Cleome, the petals are tender and beautiful, the shape is round like a fan, the stamens are protruding like claws, the flower shape is graceful, and the shape is somewhat similar to that of butterflies, and butterflies are often seen flying around in intoxication.
Starry flowers come in various colors of red, pink and white. Dozens of five-petal star-like flowers cluster into a cluster. The clusters of flowers look pleasing to the eye. They are also the nectar plants that butterflies love! You can see the butterfly circling around the star flower.
Choose a variety of flowers to match, and plant some tall trees to match shrubs.
It is not to cover the butterflies, but to improve the visit effect. At the same time, it also creates an environment in the wild.
It would be too boring if visitors enter the butterfly house and have unobstructed views and all the scenery in the eye.
Walk along the winding road, slowly admire the butterflies on both sides of the visit, watch the butterflies flutter in the flowers flies from one side to the other to feed, perhaps staying on the shoulders and palms of tourists .
The roads are divided into dirt roads and boardwalks. Walking on the dirt road is more atmospheric. The boardwalk is for tourists who consider wheelchairs and cherish their shoes and don't want their shoes to stick to the dirt.
In addition to flowers, butterflies also have a feeding station!
A few tree trunks form a triangle, like a brazier, on which a plate is placed.
Put nectar on the plate and some overripe fruits to provide them with an additional source of food. The density of butterflies in the butterfly house is far greater than that in the wild, so flowers and food alone are definitely not enough.
In order to protect the butterflies, the feeding station is placed out of the reach of tourists, but also close enough for viewing and taking pictures.
Then there are some small details of the pavilion.
Double doors prevent the butterfly from escaping, and there are signs reminding visitors to pay attention to their feet so as not to accidentally step on the butterfly.
With some elegant classical music in the background, the Butterfly Pavilion becomes a place to relax.
