Chapter 675: Deciduous castle and long beetle tree trunk

Fang Ye said: "Although the story of the yellow-breasted bunting is a bit sad to say, it is still very surprising that we can welcome the yellow-breasted bunting as a guest in our rice fields.

In fact, this is what we want to show in our rural area. The city we live in used to be like this.

Yellow-breasted buntings sing in the fields, and tadpoles grow up in the stream.

Now with the rapid advancement of urbanization, not only the living space of native species has been squeezed out, but the connection between people living in the city and nature has also been destroyed, and various problems have also appeared.

The Vernacular Exhibition Area is to let everyone re-recognize these animals that once lived with us, build a connection with nature, and think about the relationship between man and nature. "

"This kind of exhibition area is really great, and I will definitely come and visit in the future."

"The rice fields can attract yellow-breasted buntings to rest here, and the zoo can achieve this level, just two words, awesome!"

With the recent drop in temperature, the green leaves of maple trees have also turned yellow, swaying gently in the breeze. The golden sunlight sprinkled from the gaps in the canopy, reflecting the golden rays of the road.

There was a pile of fallen leaves beside the road, and a sign was erected beside it.

Some netizens asked curiously: "What is showing here?"

Fang Ye said with a smile: "The local exhibition area is not only to display a few native animals, but the habitat is the foundation. Only with the habitat created by native plants can the native biological community appear.

This is where the pile of fallen leaves is displayed. It has a nice name called Fallen Leaf Castle.

Fallen leaves are an important part of the natural cycle.

When the fallen leaves fall from the branches, although they have ended a journey, they continue to live in another form.

The decomposition of fallen leaves provides the soil with rich organic matter, which makes the soil loose. Due to the fermentation of microorganisms, even in winter, the pile of fallen leaves is also very warm. It is a castle for many small animals to live through the winter.

The larvae of unicorn fairy and some scarabs feed on the fermented fallen leaves and will spend their larval stage in the fallen leaves, so why you can't see them in the city is because of the lack of fallen leaves. "

"I see!"

"Doraemon and Nobita's favorite activity is to go to the back mountain to catch unicorns. It is also the entertainment I have always dreamed of in my childhood."

Netizens find it very interesting. Didn’t expect that a bunch of fallen leaves can be displayed?

A sharp-eyed netizen said: "What is the dead tree in front? Why does it look like a hidden mystery."

At first glance, it looks like a yellow-brown dead tree! There are pits and holes on it, as if it had been eaten by insects.

The middle part of the tree trunk has obvious cutting marks, just like the cover page of a book.

Fang Ye smiled and opened the bark like a book.

This sign is actually hidden in the trunk! The above is an introduction to longhorn beetles.

Fang Ye stroked the moth on the tree trunk and said, "Everyone has seen longhorn beetles? Have you caught them when you were young?

Have you ever imagined what the trees have been eaten by longhorn beetles? This is the result of the long-horned beetle gnawing. "

When talking about longhorn beetle, many people's childhood memories are immediately brought back.

"When I was young, there was a wasteland behind my mother’s hospital. In the summer, insects and birds called. We caught long beetles, grasshoppers, and butterflies. Sometimes we were lucky enough to see stick insects. During summer vacation I went to work with my mother. I played there for a whole day. I was sweating and I was too happy."

"We can often see longicorn beetles in elementary school! There are spots on the black back, and the tentacles are black and white. One of my favorite ways to play is to grab the beetles and shake them to stun them."

"The elementary school likes to catch longicorns very much. Once I caught one big thief and put them on my hands to play, but I gave my hand a bite to bite and not let go. I was bleeding from the pinch, and the pain was so bad. I don’t dare to catch the shadow again."

"Then you can't bite it back?"

"Haha, I have never been bitten by catching long-horned beetles. Just press the back and grab it! It will make a squeaking sound."

"The peach tree in my hometown was gnawed to death by the long-horned beetle. The trees are full of holes of this kind."

"By the way, it seems that I haven't seen longhorn beetles for a long time!"

Fang Ye said: "Perhaps in everyone's impression, longhorn beetle is a pest, which can vacate the tree trunk and endanger the environment.

In fact, every wild animal has a unique ecological significance. Adult female longhorned beetles gnaw on the bark with their sharp upper jaws, leave wounds on the branches, and lay eggs. The hatched larvae move in the trunk, eroding long tunnels, and also leave on the branches. Under the eye-catching wound.

These wounds will flow out nutrient-rich sap, attracting small beetles to come to eat, the beetle's gnawing and feeding will make the branches longer to heal themselves, and more juice will flow out.

The sap emits aroma in hot and humid weather, which will attract more and larger diners, such as butterflies, stag beetles, and wasps, and these large insects will attract bird predators.

Residents in these forests depend on the restaurants created by long beetles throughout the summer. "

Listening to what he said, netizens couldn't help but recall that in the hot summer days, longicorns burrowed holes in tree trunks, and various insects and birds kept visiting here, creating a colorful and colorful forest world.

Fang Yedao: "If it is a healthy natural forest, there is no need to worry about longhorn beetles. They are part of a healthy ecosystem. If a single plantation forest, it may become a disaster because there are no natural enemies to restrain them. The more complex the ecosystem is. The more stable."

After passing a spire-top granary, the word "Feng" is still pasted on the granary, which looks like a rural backyard atmosphere.

Next to the granary is the red fox exhibition area!

When I came here, UU Reading www.uukánshu.com just met the breeder preparing to feed.

Fang Ye didn't rush in, and said with a smile: "Look at how to feed the fox."

The breeder opened the cage door, and when the prince who was usually not active in anything was eating, he became excited immediately, wagging his tail and rushed up, screaming nonstop.

The breeder sprinkled some food in the buffer zone and blew the whistle: "Finally!"

Xiao Qiao was still a little reserved, and the two foxes, Youyou and Tangbao, followed the prince into the buffer zone and ate on the ground.

Then the breeder closed the door of the buffer zone and arranged it in the playground so that it would not be disturbed by the fox.

The sugar packet is too lively, and he always makes mischief when putting food, and the prince is even more chasing if he has food.

Fang Ye said: "The box contains thawed white mice. If you put them directly, they will be easily spotted by the foxes. So put them in the box, and then spread and hide them for the foxes to find. This increases the difficulty of feeding and prolongs their foraging. Time, this is the routine operation of food enrichment."
