1. Giant Panda: The giant panda is a carnivore that mainly eats bamboo. It is not only rare, endangered, and specialty, but also very ancient and is known as a "living fossil."
2 Golden Monkey: Covered with a golden "cloak" on its back, it climbs trees, jumps and moves like flying. When the golden monkey was first named, its upturned nose and blond hair reminded the zoologist Mr. Edward of Lockanna, the upturned-nosed blond wife of the European Crusader Commander, so he named the golden monkey after this beauty
3 Baiji dolphin: Baiji dolphin is a unique aquatic animal in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China. There are more than 70 species of dolphins in the world and only 5 species in freshwater. China is the only freshwater whale with a narrow distribution. It is older and rarer than the giant panda. The white-fin dolphin has a delicate body, smooth skin, a sword-like snout, and a spindle-shaped body. The eyes are as small as beans and the ears are as small as pins. There are more than 130 small teeth densely packed in the upper and lower jaws. There is a round nostril on the upper left side of the head. It comes out of the water to breathe every 20 seconds. Although its audio-visual ability is not good, its sonar system emits ultrasonic waves. Its echolocation capability allows it to contact its companions more than ten kilometers away.
4 Crested Ibis: This beautiful wading bird, known as the "Pearl of the Orient" by zoologists, is a bird that was once thought to be extinct. They were originally a specialty bird in East Asia and are only found in China, It is distributed in North Korea, Japan and Russia, but has disappeared since the 1960s.
5 Brown-eared Pheasant: Brown-eared Pheasant is a rare bird native to Pangquangou in Shanxi, China, Xiaowutai Mountain in Hebei and Mentougou in Beijing. Because its ears are composed of two snow-white ear feathers, they look like long horns. Some people call it horned chicken or eared chicken. After the tail feathers are upturned, they hang loosely like a horse's tail, hence the name Pheasant. There are four species of Pheasant, all produced in China, namely Tibetan Pheasant, White Pheasant, Blue Pheasant and Brown Pheasant.
6 Alligator: Alligator is the only crocodile species in China. There are 25 species of crocodiles in the world, and China only has Gulf crocodiles and Chinese alligators. However, as the largest crocodile (10 meters long), the Gulf crocodile became extinct hundreds of years ago, while the Chinese alligator is now endemic to my country and is the only relict species from the ancient north that is distributed in the temperate zone.
7 Black-necked Crane: The black-necked crane is the only plateau crane in the world. It is a sacred bird in the eyes of the Tibetan people. It is also the last one to be recorded among the fifteen cranes in the world. The crane was discovered by Russian explorer Przhelvalsky in 1876 in Qinghai Lake, China. Black-necked cranes breed in Tibet in summer and move to Yunnan and Guizhou to overwinter in winter. A few even fly over the Himalayas to Bhutan to overwinter.
8 Tibetan antelope: It has attracted much attention from the world in recent years. The main reason is that the consumer demand for "Tibetan antelope shawl" or "Shatoosh" in the Western fashion industry since 1980 has stimulated the interest of poachers. In addition, some gold miners are also killing them wantonly. As a result, the number of Tibetan antelopes living in alpine areas where life is at its limit is declining at a rate of nearly 10,000 a year.
9 South China tiger: The South China tiger, also known as "Chinese tiger" in English, is a subspecies unique to my country. It was originally the most widely distributed, largest, smaller, but oldest tiger species in China. There is only one kind of tiger in the world, all of which are found in Asia. In the last century, there were 8 subspecies: Bengal tiger, Siberian tiger, Javan tiger, South China tiger, Caspian tiger, Bali tiger, and Sumatran tiger, but the last three Subspecies have become extinct one after another. China's Xinjiang tiger (it is not yet clear which subspecies it belongs to) became extinct in the early 20th century.
10 Elk: "Sibuxiang" is the common name of the elk. It is a wetland deer unique to China. It was extinct in China in 1900. Fortunately, a small number of them survive in Europe. After a After centuries of conservation, the population was able to recover. Elk is a wetland animal. Due to its adaptation to the wetland habitat, it has formed a special shape, the so-called "four dissimilarities": its horns are like a deer but not a deer, its face is like a horse but not a horse, its hooves are like a cow but not an ox, and its tail is like a donkey but not a donkey. .
