Where is Qilian Mountain? Why is it called a paradise for beasts?

During this journey, I met amazing creatures, made serious friends, and witnessed the progress of Qilian Mountain National Park. It is a great luck for an individual to be able to participate in the grand process and do their part, and I will not forget it, and I will definitely be able to echo and encourage it with my friends. "Where General Ma's troops sleep.

In the red ditch of Qilian County in the middle of the Qilian Mountains, Renqing pointed to the stone wall with an elevation angle by the river and said to me. Soon after installing an infrared camera, Renqing thought he had found the snow leopard's big defeat ball, but it turned out to be this hand. I looked at the rubble under the stone wall with a puzzled expression.

The remnants of General Ma's army were routed and fled here to become bandits. "And what do they eat?" "It was more wild at the time.

They beat yaks. ""When will there be no wild yaks? "After liberation, it will be gone.

It's the 50s and 60s. Renqing, the manager of the Qingyang District Shelter in Qilian County, Qinghai Province, cooled off on a green motorcycle. Turning from Qingyanggou to Honggou, the asphalt road turned into a dirt road, and it didn't take long for the road to be broken.

After learning of this situation, the head of the Qingyang District Management Station arranged in advance for the managers Ren Qing and Danmu to travel on motorcycles.

Even motorcycles can't drive several kilometers. Rocks have collapsed or flooded away, leaving the road in shambles. Crossing the damaged section, the dirt road at the other end lingers in the distance like a mockery.

It can only work on two legs. This is probably the most reliable means of transportation. Although it is a little slow, jackals have appeared one after another on the land of Qilian Mountain.

Since last year, herders have seen a dead cow in the vicinity, with its intestines dug out and its abdomen near its hind legs blurred with blood. But in the past 30 years, due to the low number of jackals and the extremely low density of the area, it is difficult to find them in the wild in the Qilian Mountains, so it is even more unusual for people to witness them in person. The jackal and the tiger and leopard have always been the representatives of the beast of prey, and the four types of wolf, tiger and leopard are well known, but the jackal as the "boss" is mysterious.

Why is that?

Jackals are also known as Asian wild dogs, and Chinese folk names are often accompanied by the word "dog". Many places like to call red hairdogs and dalmatians. Historically, jackals have had a bad reputation and have been known as "jungle pests".

However, there is a saying in the southern folk that when people walk at night, the jackal next to them will follow behind to protect pedestrians if they know it. The jackal looks like a mixture of a wolf and a red fox, and is a bit more delicate than a wolf. The snout is shorter than that of a wolf.

The face looks wide and the ears are round and cute. Generally 85-110 cm long and weighing 15-30 kg, most Chinese jackals are around 20 kg. In genetic relationships, jackals have a very close relationship with dogs.

However, the structure of the jackal's torso and limbs is more like that of cats and animals, making it more agile.

In the Tohoku area, because it is a primeval forest, there are almost no people, and it is a paradise for animals.

The Qilian Mountains, the northern part of Qinghai Province and the western part of Gansu Province, are composed of a number of parallel mountains and wide valleys trending northwest to southeast. It is a very good living environment and habitat for large beasts, with plenty of food and space to move, and there are many species of beasts living here, rich in biodiversity, so it is called a paradise for beasts.

Gansu and Qinghai provinces, because it stretches for more than 1,000 kilometers, are primeval forests, special climate and geographical environment, very suitable for the survival of fierce beasts.

Because there are many wild large animals in the Qilian Mountains, has been active in Qilian Mountain.

The mining industry of the past 20 years has left many roads behind the Qilian Mountains. Without these roads, wildlife surveys and monitoring would be more difficult, but roads are key to the wilderness. The deterioration of natural ecosystems is likely to begin with road construction.

If the road goes deep into every corner, it is not certain that it will not change as poaching develops. After entering the big red ditch, we quickly found the snow leopard's pits and droppings. There are also ewes, scorpions, and two red deer bodies.

— Probably the masterpiece of the snow leopard. This represents a great deal of hope. The snow leopard, with its great mobility and hidden secrets, is still here.

In fact, through poaching, care and controlled grazing, snow leopards can recover naturally.

In September, sheep and livestock live on the Ping'an Mountains, east of Suri, a valley with no livestock. In addition to the Tibetan antelope on the beach at Goukou, there are several groups of Tibetan wild asses and stone sheep in the middle of the valley. Near the glacier at the end of the canyon, we saw several wild cattle.

But the yaks saw us fleeing a kilometer away. Some of the bulls alone are much calmer.

During the yak mating season, the cooperative drives the female yak into the valley to mate with the male wild yak, and then brings the cow back when it is finished. If there is a female domestic yak left in the wild yak herd, it will"Pollution"Genes of the wild yak.

If the window glass of the plastic steel house is half broken, but the door is still good, the door is left open and covered with stones. This is a helpless way to avoid the destruction of brown bears: the bears go in to see that there is nothing to eat, and then come out on their own, without destroying the doors and windows.

There are undoubtedly brown bears in the valley. We found a brown bear footprint on the dirt road, and we saw several traces of brown bears digging marmots.

Because there are a lot of large animals around Qilian Mountain.

Maybe it's because the animals look scary, that's why they say that.

It looks like the meat of those beasts is delicious.

This is generally because in ancient times, large beasts of prey lived in the Qilian Mountains.

This is because there are many animals in Qilian Mountain, so I say so.

Qilian Mountain is known as the "Heavenly Kingdom of Great Beasts", and of course it is true. "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, a lonely city and ten thousand mountains", Qilian Mountain is in the west of the Yellow River, above the clouds, although it is located in the northwest, the natural environment is relatively harsh, but it is not an exaggeration to call it "the heaven of large beasts".

01.The internal environment of Qilian Mountain is suitable for the survival of fierce beastsQilian Mountain is located in the northwest of China, which is affected by the natural environment and geo-climate, and the peripheral natural ecological environment is relatively poor. The Qilian Mountains are half snow-capped glaciers and half Gobi Desert, which from the outside does not seem to be suitable for wild beasts, but the inside of the mountain range has its own environmental system.

It is precisely because there are more glaciers in the snow-capped mountains, the snow-capped glaciers melt to form many rivers, which flow into the inner basins of the mountains, forming very rich water resources, and the plants are relatively lush, creating favorable conditions for animals to inhabit and reproduce, and creating a rare habitat for some large beasts.

02.At present, many large beasts of predators have been found in the Qilian Mountains, and the beasts generally refer to large carnivorous mammals, and large carnivores usually refer to carnivores weighing more than 15 kilograms, and there are 12 kinds of large carnivores including tigers, leopards, snow leopards, clouded leopards, and Eurasian lynx in China, and at least 5 species of snow leopards, brown bears, wolves, jackals, and Eurasian lynx have been found in the Qilian Mountains.

With the increasing nature protection efforts in China, the interior of the Qilian Mountains has become a very good habitat for wild large beasts. Someone once photographed five snow leopards at a time in the Qilian Mountains, and jackals, wolves, brown bears, and Eurasian lynx are often captured by wildlife conservation groups and photographers.

03.Since the end of the 80s of the last century, the state has gradually increased its efforts to protect the nature of the Qilian Mountains, and set up a national natural area, and has successively established a number of nature protection stations, which are managed by the Conservation Area Administration, and further strengthened the protection and restoration of the regional ecological environment from the perspective of legislation.

Over the years, environmental management has provided a good environment for wildlife. Qilian Mountain has vast natural pastures, wild animal and plant resources are very abundant, there are more than 30 kinds of rare birds and beasts inhabiting in the deep mountains and valleys and forests, such as deer, musk deer, leopard, bear and wild cattle, etc., there are tens of thousands of migratory birds on Qinghai Lake Bird Island every year to breed and breed on the island, and it is a famous tourist resort.

Changes in the natural environment have made the Qilian Mountains a sacred place for animal reproduction, and the breeding of many herbivores has provided sufficient food and ecological conditions for large beasts. In this case, the number of large beasts has increased, and it has become the "kingdom of heaven" for large beasts to reproduce and pass on their ancestry.

04.ConclusionThe changes in the ecological environment and the special geomorphological environment of the Qilian Mountains have provided good natural conditions for it, and the country's attention to ecological protection has allowed the Qilian Mountains to recuperate, and the ecological environment has been greatly improved, so the "Heaven of Large Beasts" is well deserved. (**From the Internet, invaded and deleted.) ）

Yes, Qilian Mountain is indeed the heavenly kingdom of large beasts, because Qilian Mountain is a relatively primitive forest, and there are a lot of fierce beasts in it, and it is also protected by the state.

Not really. The species and number of fierce beasts in the Qilian Mountains are very rare, and only a few wolves, bears, leopards and lynx can be seen.

I think it's true, because the natural environment of Qilian Mountain is really good, and there are many mountain ranges, and there will be a lot of fierce beasts living here.

It is indeed true, because the environment of Qilian Mountain is particularly good, which is very suitable for the survival of large beasts.

There are not many beasts in Qilian Mountain, and they can't be called the heavenly kingdom of large beasts, so it's not true.

The Qilian Mountains are not a paradise for large beasts because there are not many large beasts in the Qilian Mountains area, only wolves, leopards and bears, as well as small beasts such as lynx.

There are not many fierce beasts in Qilian Mountain, only wolves, leopards and bears, as well as small fierce beasts such as lynx, etc., which are far from being called the heavenly kingdom of large beasts. It should be the African savannah that should be called a paradise for beasts.

It's fake, the ecological environment of Qilian Mountain is very good, which can meet the survival requirements of different animals, so the species richness in the Qilian Mountain area is very high, but it is not a paradise for large beasts, because there are not many large beasts in Qilian Mountain.
