萬州：“蕨”處逢生

Wanzhou: Survival of Endangered Ferns

On the steep cliffs of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River grows a fern species that once coexisted with dinosaurs. Known as the “giant panda of the plant kingdom," Adiantum nelumboides is a critically endangered "living fossil" that bears witness to continental drift.

Over the past two decades, Chinese researchers have risked their lives to rescue the last remaining 500 mother plants from sheer cliffs. Through technological innovation, they developed a unique "hanging bag method" to reintroduce the fern into the wild, boosting its survival rate to 95 percent.

Through perseverance and ingenuity, these researchers have written a notable Chinese success story in the conservation of critically endangered species.

在長江三峽的陡峭崖壁上，生長著與恐龍同時代的“植物界大熊貓”——荷葉鐵線蕨。這一全球極危物種是見證大陸漂移的“活化石”。二十年來，中國科研人員生死一線，從絕壁上搶救出僅存的500株母本。歷經(jīng)技術(shù)攻堅，獨創(chuàng)“掛袋法”實現(xiàn)野外回歸，使成活率提升至95%。以智慧與堅守書寫了極危物種保護的中國答卷。
