There are many wetlands in China and some of
them have become the world's important wetlands. The Chinese Yellow Sea
Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province. They are home
to many different kinds of animals. The world's largest Milu Deer Nature
Reserve is in them. More than 700 Milu deer live freely there. There are not
many red- crowned cranes in the world, but every
winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Crane Nature Reserve in the Yellow
Sea Wetlands.
The temperature in the wetlands is usually
neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine too. They are
really good places for wildlife. Offering(提供) food and home to some special kinds of animals is not the only
reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they
also prevent flood. But some people want to change the wetlands to make more
space for farms and less space for wildlife.
Luckily, more and more people are beginning
to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife. Every year, on February
2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands.
