· 博客 Blog

自2021年起,上海根与芽与广西邦亮长臂猿国家级自然保护区合作,修复东黑冠长臂猿栖息地。小叶榕、南酸枣等植物对于东黑冠长臂猿栖息地的修复乃至种群的壮大具有重要作用。在2023年国际长臂猿日来临之际,上海根与芽与上海辰山植物园一起结合植物园与栖息地共有的植物在植物园内开展科普教育,通过形式多样的活动让大家关注长臂猿栖息地的恢复工作。

Shanghai Roots & Shoots has been working with Bangliang Nature Reserve to restore the habitat for Cao Vit Gibbon since 2021. Every tree and plant on the habitat are critical for the restoration of the ecosystem and the survival of the species. For this reason, Shanghai Roots & Shoots and Shanghai Chenshan Botanic Garden together held an International Gibbon Day event. A variety of the event sessions focus on environmental education to raise the awareness of the habitat restoration for the gibbons.

此次活动共有室内和室外两个部分。上午是在科普教室内的讲座,下午是在植物园里寻找长臂猿栖息地相关植物的室外“打卡”活动。首先由广西师范大学的马长勇博士开展“长臂猿在呼唤”讲座,他着重谈到了栖息地丧失与破碎化,而人为活动是长臂猿面临濒危的主要原因。

In the morning, the lecture and workshop were held in the classroom. And in the afternoon, the volunteers set up four booths at four spots, each introducing a particular plant which can be found in the original habitat as well as in Chenshan. The visitors were given a special map to look for these spots. In the classroom, Dr. Changyong Ma gave the lecture on Gibbon and their habitat. The loss of habitat is threatening the survival of the gibbons. They used to be found across China, but now habitat were degraded and fragmented because of human activities.

The third spot was located on the island of ferns, where the visitors would find all kinds of ferns. In order to adapt to the multi-layered plant structure of the tropics, some ferns are parasitic or epiphytic on other plants or rocks.
