In a remote dry mountain area in the Chinese mainland's Yunnan Province, conservation staff at the Lancang River Provincial Nature Reserve in Lincang have dug a small waterhole to ease water shortages and help monitor local wildlife.
An infrared camera installed near the outlet has captured a fascinating array of animals stopping by for a drink – including silver pheasants, crab-eating mongooses, squirrels, porcupines, red muntjacs, and wild boars. This lively scene is a cool example of how tech can be used to protect nature! 😃
Efforts like these show that blending modern technology with conservation can create exciting solutions for environmental challenges, much like the innovative projects we see across South and Southeast Asia. It’s a vibrant reminder that even simple ideas can make a big impact on biodiversity.
