1. Record information such as ecological environment, quantity and characteristics, and take photos or videos.

2, contact the local wildlife protection agencies or related professional institutions, report information and materials.

3, timely report to the biological institutions or nature protection departments, provide detailed descriptions and photos.

How to deal with unknown creatures is as follows:

1, a simple process of local processing

Step 1: Call the police. Yes, the police are often the first process to contact unknown creatures. If the informant is neither a psychopath nor a freak. And then the next step.

Step 2: Some related contents. According to the general judgment of species, there are generally the following types (county-level) microorganisms: Health Planning Bureau. Non-microorganism: Forestry Bureau and Environmental Protection Bureau

2. Higher-level treatment methods

If the above-mentioned units still can't rule out unknown creatures after treatment, then other departments need to be dispatched. The so-called "relevant departments". Under normal circumstances, experts are deployed according to the principle of proximity. For example:

Microorganisms involving human beings are generally handled by China CDC, such as SARS and Ebola virus. When it comes to ordinary microorganisms, it is generally the Institute of Microbiology of Chinese Academy of Sciences (the old academician of microbiology is a master in the field of fungi);

When it comes to animals, it is generally the Kunming Institute of Zoology of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Kunming is an animal instead) and the Institute of Aquatic Biology of Chinese Academy of Sciences;

The plants involved are generally Botanical Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Kunming Botanical Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences (where Academician Wu Zhengyi works), Wuhan, South China and Xishuangbanna. If you encounter prehistoric animals, the South Ancient Institute or the North Ancient Institute.

Under normal circumstances, the Chinese Academy of Sciences appears frequently in this respect. After all, it is the highest academic institution of natural science and the highest consulting institution of science and technology in China, and it has the responsibility and obligation.

For example, there was once an animal on a local farm, which was very fierce and aggressive, and it was suspected to be a wolf. It caused quite a panic in the local area. Later, after being arrested, he was sent to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. As a result, experts said it was a dog. After further DNA extraction and barcode comparison, it is really a China garden dog. ...

Of course, sometimes, in some special cases, samples are king. For example, when SARS was prevalent, at least three units in China were conducting public relations at the same time, including the Institute of Virology, the Institute of Microbiology and the CDC. But most of them are conventional species, so I will send a paper to record them.
