Recently, when the Xiuzhou District Biodiversity Survey Team was conducting a field bird survey, they captured images of kestrels flying over the city, proving that rare wild animals actually live around us.
"Kestrels are national second-level protected wild animals. They commonly inhabit mountains and wilderness. Kestrels are extremely adaptable and can be seen in various environments." According to on-site investigators, due to the urban environment, It is easier to find food in the countryside. Kestrels will choose to build nests and breed on human buildings, settling among high-rise buildings and living in harmony with humans.
During this investigation, the investigation team also found traces of a variety of national "three-have" protected animals, such as egret, great egret, black water chicken, yellow reed cathead, brown-backed shrike, gray-headed wheat chicken and so on. It is reported that the "Three Haves" protected animals refer to terrestrial wild animals protected by the state and have important ecological, scientific and social values, and attention should be paid to the protection of these species.

In a farmland in the southeast of Nanhu District , a frog with a green body attracted investigators conducting biodiversity surveys. The frog was seen lying down from time to time. On the leaves of floating plants such as water lily , it sometimes stretches its limbs and floats on the water, with only its eyes and nostrils exposed. There is a light green dorsal midline in the center of its back, and a thick raised dorsal fold on each side of the body.
"This is the golden-threaded side-folded frog , also known as golden-threaded frog . It is included in the "List of Nationally Protected Terrestrial Wild Animals with Important Ecological, Scientific and Social Values." The investigator told reporters that this species They mostly live in ponds and lotus ponds in rice field areas at an altitude of 50 to 200 meters. Their chirping sounds are like those of chickens. They chirp less when they are crawling and resting quietly. They often chirp when they move rapidly, and their chirps are short.
In recent days, the Nanhu District Biodiversity Survey Team has also conducted amphibian and reptile diversity surveys in Central Park, Jiaxing Botanical Garden, and southeastern farmland. According to the implementation plan, the survey completed 20 amphibian and reptile samples in 7 grids in Nanhu District. Through online surveys, a total of 26 species of amphibians and 21 species of reptiles were discovered.
In recent years, Jiaxing has been committed to the construction of ecological civilization. With the joint efforts of the government and the public, the ecological environment has been continuously improved. In order to further comprehensively understand the "family background" of biodiversity , this year, Jiaxing launched a comprehensive biodiversity survey and assessment work, aiming to gain a deeper understanding and mastery of the city's biodiversity status, and conduct timely science popularization and publicity to the public. Relevant knowledge encourages all residents to work together to protect the biodiversity around them.
Whether the ecological environment is good or not, biodiversity surveys will confirm it. After years of management, the water quality is clear and the environment is beautiful, making it a livable home for many wild animals and plants. Here, the relevant departments call on the general public. Whether in cities or in the countryside, all kinds of wild animals and plants are good partners of mankind and should be respected and protected by everyone.
