(220715) -- KUNMING, July 15, 2022 (Xinhua) -- A drawing provided by Kunming Institute of Zoology under the Chinese Academy of Sciences shows the reconstruction of a female "Mengzi Ren (MZR)" and her living environment. Scientists have unveiled a Late Pleistocene human genome from southwest China. Their findings were published online in the journal Current Biology on Thursday night. The scientists conducted the genome sequencing of the 14,000-year-old human remains of the "Mengzi Ren (MZR)," which were unearthed in 1989 in a cave in Mengzi, Yunnan Province. More than 30 human fossils, as well as fossils of animals such as the red deer, the macaque and the black bear, were discovered in the cave.

Lian Xinming, a researcher at the Northwest Institute of Plateau Biology under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has dedicated more than 20 years of research to Tibetan antelopes since he first set foot on Hoh Xil in 2002. "Tibetan antelope protection stands as a successful example of human involvement in rescuing endangered animals," said Lian. "Using advanced technology to gain insights into what lies behind the migration of a species can also inspire the research and conservation efforts for other species." According to the Sanjiangyuan National Park Administration, the population of Tibetan antelopes in the Hoh Xil national natural reserve has recovered from less than 20,000 during the initial stages of protection to more than 70,000.
