(1) Babali lion

Barbary lion, its body length is about three meters, which is about forty centimeters longer than the lion living on the earth now. It weighed 230 kilograms and was once the largest lion on earth. Kings or royals in Europe and Arabia compare lions to symbols of authority, but why can't they be seen in their territory at all?

If we want to see the lion Babari, the king of the forest, we must go to the south of the sub-Saharan Africa. Now, the bloody scene of human fighting with lions can only be seen in fictional movie pictures. Because, in European human culture, on the one hand, people regard the lion as a symbol of courage and nobility, on the other hand, humans expel the lion from their own life circle to show the incomparable strength of human beings.

The European lion died out in the 2nd century AD, and the Booker lion in South Africa disappeared from the earth forever in 1865. After entering the 20th century, the lion in Babalj, known as the Lion King, is on the verge of extinction. These tragedies can be traced back to ancient Rome long ago.

A long time ago, the powerful Romans conquered all kinds of civilizations in other places, and also conquered the Barbary lion. People from other countries conquered by the Romans were forced to become slaves of Rome. Lions were also transported to the Maximus Arena, which can accommodate 250,000 spectators, for entertainment.

Sometimes, people will arrange lions and sword dancers to perform fighting performances; Sometimes it was provoked by Christians. Some Roman emperors captured 600 lions and transported them to Rome in order to hold a grand parade to commemorate the victory of the war. When the Roman Empire fell, Barbary lions were no longer seen in most parts of North Africa. It is not the Romans who control North Africa, not the Barbary lion, not to mention the desert. Overgrazing of livestock is the main reason. Even if there is a little green coverage, people will drive away a lot of livestock here, and even lions will be driven away. This situation has been so vicious circle until it becomes a vast desert.

The last position of the Barbary lion is the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. 1922, the last Babalj lion was knocked down by a human shotgun.

This is the largest lion on the ground, with a total length of three meters and a long mane extending to the back and upper body.

② Japanese wolf

The Japanese wolf used to be a wolf that lived in the whole northern hemisphere. Its shoulder height is 35 cm and its body length is 1 m. It is the smallest and rarest wolf in the world. They once lived in the mountains, Shikoku and Jiuzhou of this continent. In western countries, people regard wolves as demons that attack livestock. But in Japan, chasing deer or bears trampled on fields is regarded as the patron saint of crops.

The Ainu people named the wolf "the God who howled in the distance". In the long winter night in the north, the howling of wolves will arouse some beliefs in people's hearts.

Around the world, people are always afraid of wolves. No matter what kind of wolf it is, generally speaking, it is possible to attack human beings.

Humans gradually expanded their sphere of influence, and even extended to the field of wolves. Therefore, in order to keep their own territory, wolves have become enemies of mankind.

In Japan, there are many folk stories about wolves. There is a story about a blind man who went out to perform art and got lost in the mountains. Later, he led the way back to the village by a wolf.

Now, in some mountainous areas, there are also some shrines dedicated to wolves.

Wolves are regarded as ferocious animals after attacking precious livestock or horses in Japan. Sometimes, people are afraid of it and hunt it. Sometimes, people respect it and worship it. Wolves have become a part of Japanese nature and culture. Even if Ainu people shot them with poison arrows, it didn't threaten their survival. What really forced them to die out was the large-scale hunting of fur and the popularity of rifles after Meiji period. Of course, the biggest reason is that humans invaded wolves in order to expand their sphere of influence, which led wolves to attack livestock, so people tried their best to kill them. The government even encourages citizens to catch wolves by offering bonuses. It is estimated that Solang, an Egyptian living in Hokkaido, became extinct around 1900.

Japanese wolves are not lucky enough to survive. With the policy of Qiang Bing as a rich country, the industrialization and urbanization advocated at that time, and the canine distemper caused by the import of some western dogs, all these problems drove the Japanese wolves to a dead end. The survival of Japanese wolves is incompatible with civilization.

1907, that is, in the thirty-eighth year of Meiji, a wolf was captured in Jiujiakou, Yoshino Prefecture, Nara Prefecture, and this Japanese wolf was confirmed as the last Japanese wolf.

After that, "I saw a Japanese wolf" happened several times. At present, many people think that there are still a few Japanese wolves left in the mountains of Japan.

③ North American seal

North American seals are more than two meters long and weigh 160 kg. It is gentle and slow, even if it meets people, it will not turn around and run away.

Columbus, an explorer who experienced hardships, discovered American seals when he came to America. Because its cry is similar to that of a wolf, Columbus called it "the wolf in the sea". Since then, the fate of American seals has changed. Not only Columbus, but all Europeans who conquered the United States saw this "wolf in the sea" as soon as they landed on the American continent. At that time, American seals were regarded by many as a symbol of the upcoming prosperity of the new world.

Like sea donkeys, American seals like to live in groups. They used to eat fish. A long time ago. All Americans eat seal meat. Even so, the number of seals has not decreased.

Thousands of seals live in the Bahamas, as well as islands in the American Sea, the coasts of Mexico and Florida, and so on. They are very agile when fishing in the sea, on the contrary, they are very slow when they are on shore. This alone has become the weakness of the US Navy Seals.

1675, william dampier, a British explorer, recorded in detail that some Spaniards paddled their boats closer to the seals step by step with a stick in one hand, but they didn't realize what was going to happen at all and just stayed where they were.

Even the British living in Jamaica took advantage of the hunting wave at that time to kill a large number of American seals.

The following clip records the hunting of Taggart seals in northern Canada in the early 20th century.

Every year, seals leave the sea temporarily when they give birth to cubs. For people, this time is the best season to hunt seals. Instead of chasing adult seals, people aim their guns at newborn seals with white fur.

However, the purpose of killing American seals is not to get their fur.

The seal's fat turns into oil when heated. It acts like blubber and can be used to ignite lighting.

In the era of universal navigation in Europe, finding seals is as exciting as digging oil wells. Whether hunting seals or whales, it was like an oil well being exploited by people at that time. In the future, other people who make a living by mining will rush up in the heat wave. In fact, the reason is the same. However, taking oil as an example, resources are not inexhaustible.

Fortunately, the surviving seals managed to hide when the 20th century came, but all they were waiting for was more advanced shotguns. It's getting harder and harder for people to see American seals. The last seal appeared in 1952.

The Chichukai sea leopard of the same species is also facing the crisis of extinction. Recently, however, with the enhancement of people's awareness of protecting wildlife, the number of Hawaiian seals has also increased.

In short, whether the number of animals increases or decreases depends on human beings themselves!

④ Travelling pigeon

On the surface, a traveling pigeon is very similar to an ordinary pigeon. However, its back is gray, which seems a little blue, and its chest is bright red. So, it looks so colorful. It is different from ordinary pigeons, and its cry is high and loud. Another feature of it is its large number, which is the largest number of birds on the earth.

Huge teams of pigeons flew over the forests of North America with loud and discordant calls. At this time, the birds blocked the sun and the ground was dark. This image, if called a flock of birds, is really not as good as a tornado.

Sometimes, birds are fifteen kilometers long and two kilometers wide. Odibo once said that he witnessed a flock of birds, with a number of 200 million.

The traveling pigeon symbolizes the prosperity of America.

Not only because of the large quantity, but also because of the delicious taste.

For the early immigrants in the United States, all the resources in this land are abundant and inexhaustible.

The horizon is infinite, the arable land is endless, and the area that cannot be found on the map instantly becomes a bustling street. In the vast land, there are new means of transportation. At this time, the symbol of nature is the traveling pigeon.

That is, you can knock a few birds out by waving a stick into the sky a few times. This used to be true. Of course, it is even more obvious to kill hundreds or even thousands of traveling pigeons with a shotgun.

At that time, millions of traveling pigeons were sent to big cities by train every day. Until 1860, with the large-scale reclamation and hunting of forests, no one noticed that the number of traveling pigeons was gradually decreasing. In the hunting competition, a hunter will shoot down tens of thousands of traveling pigeons. About 1880. Flocks of pigeons can only be seen in Michigan. Even if everyone knows this situation, hunters in Michigan will still provide 3 million pigeons to the market every year!

The last wild pigeon was shot down in 1900.

In 1909, there used to be a large number of passenger pigeons, but now only the last three are left. They are fed at the new Sinatra Zoo.

Now, we know that there are a certain number of traveling pigeons. When their number decreases, it is impossible to get them back to the original number!

From the overwhelming era of passenger pigeons to today, only 50 years later, we can no longer hear its loud cry.

The last passenger pigeon in the zoo was a female pigeon, which was named Martha. Martha died on 19 14 September 1. On the day of its death, all news stations in the United States reported its death.

⑤ Polynesian snail

Polynesian snail is a small snail. From 10 cm to 20 cm, it is divided into more than 10,000 species, and their habitats are on various islands in the South Pacific.

Every island in the South Pacific, like every star, both animals and plants have evolved independently. This is one of the reasons why they are so diverse.

There are seven kinds of snails living on a small island named Morea in the French territory of Southet Islands. They have different characteristics.

"Why did they evolve into different species in the same environment?" 1870, Joan Gehrig, an American natural researcher, came to Morea Island with this question.

During this period, the British biologist Darwin published the Theory of Evolution, and he was attacked by people who believed in the Bible.

Guericke made a detailed study of these seven species of snails living on the small island of Morea, and found that their differences had nothing to do with the environment and natural elimination. And genetic variation is the main reason. His remarks angered people who believed in Darwin's theory of evolution.

1906, another natural researcher, Ku Lang, put forward a theory opposite to Glick's. Came to the island of Morea. He spent fifty years there, studying different kinds of snails, and made detailed records and reasoning about their future evolution. These records are strong evidence for future scholars.

However, his theory was finally rejected because of a snail. There are French people living in the Sosiat Islands. The French are also famous for their love of snails. The most delicious food is the African snail. When importing African snails, snails occasionally escape, because there are no natural enemies, and the escaped African snails breed quickly. African snails invaded the small island of Morea much later than other islands, in 1970. Moreover, African snails reproduce at an alarming rate. In addition to the African snails in the yard, a family invited two trolleys. So it is impossible not to take measures. 1977, people imported a snail that eats snails from Florida, USA. However, this carnivorous snail has far avoided African snails and turned its attention to Polynesian snails. The unprepared Polynesian snail finally disappeared completely in 1988. Some Polynesian snails on the small island of Morea are protected by the local zoo. But only five of the seven species, and the other two are extinct.

⑥ Bachel savanna zebra.

Bachel savanna zebra is called the most beautiful zebra in savanna zebra subspecies, and it is this beautiful appearance that makes them suffer misfortune.

Zebras living in Africa are divided into three categories. Zebras that live on dry grasslands are called Guribi Zebras. Zebras living in the mountains are called mountain zebras; The largest number is the savanna zebra, which is widely distributed in the eastern savanna.

18 17, a subspecies of tropical zebra was brought back to England by British traveler Bachel. Bachel savanna zebra once lived in the grassland of the southernmost port in Africa. According to the classification, zebras and donkeys are very similar. Savannah zebras have long legs and look more like horses.

In the "zebra" family, the zebra in Bache grassland can be regarded as one of the most elegant zebras.

They stood there with their heads held high. As you can see, their bones are strong and their ears are as small as horses. The male zebra has a shoulder height of1.5m and a body length of 2.5m..

They are as lively and active as British thoroughbred racehorses.

They have black and white stripes, sometimes they feel like black stripes on a white background, and sometimes they feel like white stripes on a black background. The combination of savanna zebra, wildebeest and ostrich forms a defense alliance. Ostrich's eyes, zebra's ears, wildebeest's nose, if some animal absorbs the characteristics of these three animals, it is really invincible in the world!

However, they have no resistance to shotguns raised by humans. Boers once hunted a large number of zebras on the prairie. They distributed zebra meat to the entourage from Africa and made zebra skins into bags.

/kloc-in 0/830, it gradually became a trend for people to keep wild animals as pets, especially in the savanna of Bacher.

Unfortunately for these zebras, their skins are easy to process, and their colors and textures are so beautiful that they have a broad market in the blink of an eye.

Hunting zebras is easier to make money than running a farm. By 1850, people had mastered the updated tanning technology, so the management of zebra leather products became more popular.

The hunting of zebras began in 1840. Although some conservationists protested, this rampant hunting behavior lasted for 30 years.

1870, a large number of zebras in Bachel savanna gradually disappeared from people's sight. Only a small group of zebras scattered on the grassland, as well as local landlords, occasionally raising a few, and a few surviving in the zoo.

The last zebra in Becher grassland died in London Zoo in 19 10. I have never seen the prairie in my hometown since I was a child.

All landowners Dorset forest reindeer

This small and exquisite reindeer became extinct because of human curiosity.

"Does such a small reindeer really exist" has become a topic of debate among zoologists, and it is this debate that drives Dorset forest reindeer to the point of no return.

Dorset forest reindeer lives in the continental United States and is a kind of reindeer. They are small in size and may be a kind of reindeer that survived in special environmental conditions a long time ago.

Most of the Kwai Gap Lott Islands located on the Pacific side of Canada belong to the wet tundra. Surrounded by dense coniferous forests. It's very humid there. However, reindeer is an animal that lives in dry land. Why do they live here? Scholars have questions.

Dorset forest reindeer are very small. The shoulder height is 80 cm, the body length is less than 1.40 m, and the weight is from 100 to 130 kg, which is less than half that of other reindeer. They look like ordinary reindeer, with manes under their necks and big hooves. The number of these young reindeer is very small, and the number of breeding has never increased.

On the coast of this island, there used to be local residents. They live in the sea with rich resources and never enter the inland areas of the island. Until Europeans invaded this sacred island.

In order to get fur, European hunters let local residents set traps in the inland of the island and reward them. In this way, the reindeer finally appeared in front of the world.

British colonial investigator G·M· Dosso made the first investigation report in 1878.

1880, a businessman named Makanji offered a bounty and donated part of the skull and horn of a male reindeer captured by residents in a trap to the National Museum. 1900, Dorset forest reindeer was considered as a new animal and had a Latin scientific name.

However, this decision set off a large-scale debate among scholars at that time. They don't think this reindeer is a new animal.

190 1 year, a resident's teacher announced to take five residents into the inland area of the island. However, they only saw the footprints of reindeer, but they didn't see the figure of reindeer. Six years later, although the investigation is still going on, the reindeer has never appeared.

Finally, on 1908 1 1 month 1 day, two hunters found two male reindeer, a female reindeer and a young reindeer. Although the hunters shot down the reindeer one by one, the other reindeer didn't respond. Finally, only one reindeer was left.

The reindeer in the Duosuo forest were discovered by humans and soon became extinct, leaving only the little reindeer to live alone.

8. Wolf.

This is an indescribable and wonderful animal. Judging from its head and teeth, it is a wolf. However, its body is striped like a tiger. It can run on four legs like a hyena. You can also jump on your hind legs like a kangaroo. It is a marsupial like a kangaroo. This animal has the characteristics of other kinds of animals, but it has some special features. Known as Tasmanian Wolf, Zebra Wolf, Tasmanian Tiger and so on.

Marsupials live in sparse forests or grasslands. However, when settlers come to the land where they live, they will hide in the depths of the forest. This carnivorous marsupial is from beginning to end 1.5 to 1.8 meters long. Shoulder height 60 cm. There is a bag on the stomach, and you can put a baby kangaroo like a kangaroo. There are twelve to twenty patterns on the back. Jaw bone is divided into two parts like a snake. They will bite off the head of a hunting dog. At night, they act alone, often targeting kangaroos, wallabies or flightless birds. It doesn't run fast, but it will chase after it until its prey is exhausted. They often bite the head of their prey to end their lives.

Since the arrival of Tasmanian immigrants, the survival of the marsupial wolf has been in crisis.
