Wild Thuja sutchuenensis is an endangered species of gymnosperm endemic to China and under national first-class protection. In 1998, the International Union for Conservation of Nature declared Thuja sutchuenensis extinct, but the species was rediscovered in Chengkou County in 1999. At present, the number of wild adult Thuja sutchuenensis plants in the world is less than 10,000, and they are only distributed in the areas of Daba Mountains including Kaizhou District and Chengkou County of Chongqing. In order to protect this endangered species, Yang Quan from Chongqing Xuebaoshan national nature reserve led a team to carry out the investigation and study of wild Thuja sutchuenensis communities, hoping to expand its population.

                  (240519) -- HEFEI, May 19, 2024 (Xinhua) -- Zhang Bajin walks towards the river bank to feed Yangtze finless porpoises at a Yangtze finless porpoise relocation conservation base in Tongling River Dolphin National Nature Reserve in Tongling, east China's Anhui Province, May 10, 2024. Known as the "giant panda of the water," the Yangtze finless porpoise, which is under top-level state protection in China, is an important indicator of the health of the Yangtze River ecology. This species can only be found in the middle and lower main streams of the Yangtze River. Zhang Bajin, 62, an ex-crewman of the cargo ship on the Yangtze River, has been working as a breeder at a Yangtze finless porpoise relocation conservation base in Tongling River Dolphin National Nature Reserve since 2006. After a dozen years of care and feeding, Zhang can distinguish each Yangtze finless porpoise through subtle differences.
