　　Captured with infrared cameras, the two-minute video presents vivid images of birds such as egrets and herons living there, along with mammals such as water deer, wild boars, weasels and raccoon dogs. The video was made for the biodiversity survey of the wetland, using various modern scientific and technological means such as environmental DNA analysis as well as night vision and infrared cameras. The survey is currently still in progress and its results are expected to be released in the fall.
　　在约2分钟的视频里，有白鹭、苍鹭、东方白鹳等鸟儿，河麂、野猪、黄鼠狼、貉等哺乳动物的身影。这些画面均是为了全面调查湖生物多样性而拍摄，运用了环境DNA技术、夜视摄像头和红外摄像头等现代科技手段。目前该调查还在进行中，结果预计今秋公布。
