[0002] The Tibetan hot spring snake is a rare snake species endemic to China. It belongs to the genus Thermophis of the family Colubridae and is one of the snakes with the highest distribution altitude in the world. It mainly lives in the areas with an altitude of 3,500 to 4,400 meters on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

[0003] The Tibetan hot spring snake mainly inhabits stone piles, water edges and marsh meadows near hot springs, relying on the geothermal heat of the hot springs to regulate its body temperature to adapt to the alpine environment.

[0004] They are diurnal snakes, often sunning themselves on sunny days or foraging in rivers, and mainly feed on fish, frogs and small mammals.

[0005] The Tibetan hot spring snake is a first-class protected wild animal in China and is also listed in the Red List of Endangered Species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in 2022, and is evaluated as endangered.

[0006] Due to its narrow distribution area and small population size, and in recent years, due to the impact of geothermal power station development and other human activities, the living environment of the Tibetan hot spring snake has been severely damaged and the population size has decreased significantly.

[0007] Although the existing patent 202311482891.4 - A near-natural ecological restoration system for damaged wetland in road area relates to the field of wetland ecological restoration technology, including a regulating sedimentation pond, a vegetation establishment slope and a near-natural wetland; the existing patent can achieve in-situ ecological restoration or off-site ecological compensation of damaged wetland in road area, which helps to promote the harmonious coexistence of highway construction and the natural environment; however, the existing ecological restoration technology does not directly protect the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0008] Therefore, in order to improve or solve at least one of the above problems, it is necessary to optimize the design of the existing ecological system of the Tibetan hot spring snake. Summary of the Invention

[0040] The following further describes in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention by describing the optimal embodiments with reference to the drawings.

[0041] A field snake nest 101 for the Tibetan hot spring snake, comprising a ground foundation pit 8, a partition structure 1, and a covering structure 6; the field snake nest 101 for the Tibetan hot spring snake disclosed in the present invention provides a safe habitat environment for the Tibetan hot spring snake: through the design of the partition structure 1 and the covering structure 6, a separated habitat space 4 and external protection are provided for the Tibetan hot spring snake, reducing the threat of natural enemies; the design of the stone pile layer 61 and soil layer of the covering structure 6, as well as the combination with the wetland, can simulate the natural environment and enhance the concealment and ecological adaptability of the snake nest 101.

[0042] In the present invention, the ground foundation pit 8 is equivalent to a sunken groove structure. The setting of the ground foundation pit 8 facilitates the placement and positioning of the partition structure 1, and at the same time can cooperate with the covering structure 6 to achieve the stable placement of the partition structure 1, avoiding the partition structure 1 being affected by the external environment, which is beneficial to ensuring the stability of the overall structure of the snake nest 101.

[0043] In the present invention, the ground foundation pit 8, as a part of the snake nest 101, can act as a basic framework, providing stable support and spatial layout for the partition structure 1.

[0044] The depth and area of the foundation pit should be designed according to the partition structure 1 to ensure there is enough space for the snake to move and inhabit.

[0045] A layer of fine sand or gravel can be laid at the bottom of the foundation pit to keep it dry and prevent waterlogging.

[0046] In the present invention, the partition structure 1 mainly includes a plurality of placement partitions 2: the placement partitions 2 are stacked in sequence, dividing the internal space of the snake nest 101 into multiple independent habitat areas, providing multiple independent hiding and inhabiting places for the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0047] The partitions are distributed at intervals in parallel, and a habitat space 4 is formed between adjacent partitions.

[0048] The material of the placement partition 2 should be selected as non-toxic, corrosion-resistant and having a certain strength, such as wood, plastic or cement; of course, other materials can also be selected according to other needs.

[0049] The interval distance of the placement partitions 2: according to the body size of the Tibetan hot spring snake, the interval distance between the placement partitions 2 should be appropriate, generally 10-20 cm, ensuring that the snake can freely enter and exit, but also preventing large natural enemies from entering.

[0050] In the present invention, the support mechanism mainly plays a role of supporting and raising the height, facilitating the formation of a raised interval between adjacent placement partitions 2 to form a habitat space 4; in the present invention, the support mechanism mainly includes support blocks 3, and the support blocks 3 are mainly used to support the partitions, preventing the placement partitions 2 from deforming or collapsing due to external force or its own gravity, ensuring the stability of the structure.

[0051] The supporting mechanism includes support blocks 3 arranged between adjacent placement partitions 2, and each support block 3 is in contact with one placement partition 2 on each of its opposite sides; the material of the support block 3 can be the same as that of the partition, such as a wooden block. To ensure the supporting effect, the number of support blocks 3 can be selected according to needs. Generally, 5 support blocks 3 are arranged between adjacent placement partitions 2, and one support block 3 is respectively arranged at the four corners of the adjacent placement partitions 2, and one support block 3 is arranged in the middle area. Such a setting can well avoid the deformation or collapse of the placement partition 2.

[0052] Of course, to better ensure the overall structural stability of the partition structure 1, the support block 3 and the adjacent placement partition 2 can be locked and fixed through fasteners, and fixing parts such as screws can be selected for the fasteners.

[0053] In the present invention, the covering structure 6 mainly includes a stone pile layer 61: The stone pile layer 61 mainly includes stone blocks of various sizes and models, and is generally piled up around the ground foundation pit 8, around and above the partition structure 1. The stone pile layer 61 mainly plays an external protection role to avoid the harm of natural enemies of the Tibetan hot spring snake, such as eagles and other animals, to the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0054] In the present invention, the stone pile layer 61 is piled up around the partition structure 1, which plays a role in protecting the internal environment of the snake nest 101, reducing external interference, and at the same time simulating the natural environment to enhance the concealment of the snake nest 101.

[0055] The thickness of the stone pile layer 61 should be designed according to the scale of the snake nest 101 and the local climate conditions.

[0056] Generally, the thickness is 30 - 50 cm to ensure sufficient heat preservation and protection effects.

[0057] The stones of the stone pile layer 61 should be selected as stones with moderate size and smooth surface to avoid harm to the snake caused by sharp edges.

[0058] At the same time, during actual arrangement, it is required that the stone size of the lower layer of the stone pile layer 61 is larger than that of the upper layer. Based on this design, the adjacent intervals of the lower stone pile layer 61 are larger, which can provide a larger access space for the Tibetan hot spring snake, facilitate the quick entry and exit of the Tibetan hot spring snake from the snake nest 101, and avoid natural enemies; at the same time, the smaller stone size above can reduce the extrusion of the stone pile layer 61 on the partition structure 1.

[0059] In the present invention, each habitat space 4 is separated by adjacent placement partitions 2, providing an independent hiding place for the Tibetan hot spring snake and reducing the mutual interference between snakes.

[0060] The covering design of the partition structure 1 and the stone pile layer 61 can effectively block external natural enemies, such as birds, feline animals, etc., and provide a safe habitat environment for the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0061] By piling up the stone layer 61 to simulate the rock crevices in the natural environment, it provides a wild-like habitat condition for the Tibetan hot spring snake, which helps it to adapt and survive.

[0062] The design of the stone layer 61 and the foundation pit can utilize the heat insulation properties of soil and stones to adjust the temperature inside the snake nest 101, making it closer to the temperature range required by the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0063] Furthermore, in the present invention, the placement partitions 2 in the partition structure 1 are distributed at intervals in parallel, and a habitat space 4 is formed between adjacent placement partitions 2; the support mechanism includes support blocks 3 arranged between adjacent placement partitions 2, and each support block 3 is in contact with one placement partition 2 on each of its opposite sides; by designing the placement partitions 2 to be distributed at intervals in parallel, the present invention forms a plurality of independent habitat spaces 4; this design can provide a plurality of independent hiding places for the Tibetan hot spring snake, meet its need for independent space, and at the same time reduce the mutual interference between snakes.

[0064] According to the body size and habits of the Tibetan hot spring snake, the interval distance between the partitions should be appropriate.

[0065] Generally speaking, the interval distance for small Tibetan hot spring snakes can be designed to be 10 - 15 cm, and the interval distance for medium and large Tibetan hot spring snakes can be designed to be 15 - 20 cm.

[0066] The height of the partition structure 1 and the placement partitions 2 should be determined according to the overall design of the snake nest 101 and the activity range of the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0067] Generally speaking, the height of the placement partition 2 can be designed to be 30 - 50 cm to ensure that the snake can freely enter and exit, and at the same time provide enough shelter space.

[0068] The habitat space 4 formed between adjacent placement partitions 2 is the core functional area of the snake nest 101, providing an independent hiding and resting place for the Tibetan hot spring snake; the size of the habitat space 4 should be designed according to the body size and number of the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0069] Of course, the habitat space 4 cannot be designed to be particularly wide to prevent large natural enemies from entering, and at the same time it should be spacious enough to meet the activity needs of the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0070] A layer of soft material, such as hay, leaves or fine sand, can be laid in the habitat space 4 to improve the comfort of the snake.

[0071] In addition, in the present invention, the main function of the support mechanism is to ensure the stability of the partition structure 1, preventing the partitions from deforming or collapsing due to external forces or their own gravity; the support blocks 3 can be designed to be rectangular or square, and the size should be determined according to the thickness and spacing of the partitions.

[0072] Generally speaking, the thickness of the support block 3 can be designed to be 5-10 cm, and the width can be designed to be 10-15 cm.

[0073] The support block 3 and the placement partition 2 can be connected by screws, glue or welding to ensure a firm connection.

[0074] The surface of the support block 3 should be polished to ensure smoothness and burr-free to avoid harm to the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0075] When designing the snake nest 101, the number and spacing of the partitions 2 should be reasonably planned according to the number and size of the Tibetan hot spring snakes to ensure that each habitat 4 can meet the needs of the snakes.

[0076] The support blocks 3 should be evenly distributed to avoid deformation of the partition due to insufficient local support.

[0077] In the surface treatment of the partition and the support block 3, sharp edges and burrs should be avoided as much as possible to ensure the safety of the internal environment of the snake nest 101.

[0078] Some simple shelters, such as small wood blocks or stones, can be set up in the habitat space 4 to provide more hiding options for the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0079] The design of the partition structure 1 should simulate the natural environment as much as possible, for example, a layer of natural materials (such as leaves, hay, etc.) is laid in the habitat space 4 to enhance the ecological adaptability of the snake nest 101.

[0080] Furthermore, in the present invention, the covering structure 6 also includes a laid soil layer 62; the laid soil layer 62 is laid on the partition structure 1 and / or the stone layer 61; the laid soil layer 62 can simulate the soil structure in the natural environment and provide Tibetan hot spring snakes with living conditions closer to the wild.

[0081] The soil's heat preservation, moisture retention and air permeability can provide snakes with a comfortable living environment.

[0082] The soil layer can promote the growth of vegetation, attract insects and other small animals, provide a rich food source for the Tibetan hot spring snakes, and enhance the ecological diversity of Snake Nest 101.

[0083] The soil has good thermal insulation properties, which can maintain the temperature inside the snake nest 101 in winter and prevent heat from dissipating quickly; in summer, it can block the high temperature outside and keep the inside cool.

[0084] The soil can absorb and retain a certain amount of moisture, providing a suitable humidity environment for the snake nest 101. At the same time, the pore structure in the soil can ensure air circulation and prevent internal moisture accumulation.

[0085] Choose soil with good air permeability and water retention, such as loam or humus. You can mix an appropriate amount of fine sand or gravel into the soil layer to further enhance air permeability.

[0086] Laying the soil layer 62 can further enhance the protection performance of the snake nest 101 and block external interference and attacks from natural enemies; at the same time, the natural color and texture of the soil layer can better camouflage the snake nest 101 and make it blend into the surrounding environment.

[0087] The surface of the soil layer can be covered with a layer of dead leaves or grass to further enhance concealment.

[0088] Furthermore, in the present invention, a through-hole structure may be provided between the partitions 2 to facilitate the connection between the partitions 2 that are connected, thereby achieving the connection between the adjacent living spaces 4.

[0089] Furthermore, in the present invention, the snake nest 101 also includes a ventilation structure 5, which is connected to the partition structure 1; the ventilation structure 5 includes a plurality of ventilation pipes 51; each of the ventilation pipes 51 is plugged into the partition structure 1; the ventilation pipes 51 in the present invention provide a channel for air exchange inside the snake nest 101, ensuring that fresh air can enter while discharging the internal waste gas.

[0090] The ventilation duct 51 should be designed to be spacious enough to avoid obstruction of air circulation.

[0091] The diameter of the pipe can be adjusted according to the size of the snake nest 101 and the number of snakes, and a diameter of 5-10 cm is generally recommended.

[0092] At the same time, the ventilation pipe 51 not only has the function of ventilation, but also facilitates the Tibetan hot spring snake to enter the snake nest 101.

[0093] The ventilation duct 51 can help to discharge excess moisture inside the snake nest 101, preventing the internal environment from being too humid, thereby reducing the growth of mold and bacteria.

[0094] The outlet of the ventilation duct 51 should be designed outside the snake nest 101 to prevent moisture from circulating inside the snake nest 101.

[0095] Through air circulation, the ventilation duct 51 can adjust the temperature inside the snake nest 101 to a certain extent.

[0096] In hot weather, air circulation can help dissipate heat.

[0097] The ventilation pipe 51 should be avoided from being directly exposed to the sun as much as possible to reduce the transfer of heat.

[0098] Each habitat 4 is connected to at least one ventilation duct 51 to ensure air circulation.

[0099] For a relatively large snake nest 101, the number of ventilation pipes 51 can be increased.

[0100] The ventilation pipes 51 should be evenly distributed in each habitation space 4 of the snake nest 101 to avoid poor air circulation in some areas.

[0101] The ventilation pipes 51 should be inserted into the partition structure 1 to ensure communication with the habitation space 4.

[0102] The ventilation pipes 51 can be designed in an "L" shape or a "U" shape to meet different layout requirements.

[0103] The ventilation pipes 51 should be made of non-toxic, corrosion-resistant materials with a certain strength, such as PVC pipes, ceramic pipes or metal pipes.

[0104] PVC pipes are a relatively common choice because they are inexpensive, easy to process and have good durability.

[0105] The inner wall of the ventilation pipes 51 should be smooth to reduce the risk of snakes getting injured when moving inside the pipes. If metal pipes are used, rust prevention treatment is recommended.

[0106] L-shaped structure of the ventilation pipe 51: The ventilation pipe 51 can be designed in an "L" shape, where the horizontal pipe 511 is connected to the partition structure 1 and the vertical pipe 512 faces the ground or the outside.

[0107] This design can effectively guide air circulation and prevent rainwater or debris from entering the pipes.

[0108] Inverted U-shaped structure: If better drainage performance is required, it can be designed as a "U" shaped pipe to prevent rainwater from flowing back.

[0109] The ventilation pipes 51 can be fixed in the partition structure 1 by means of insertion or threaded connection.

[0110] Ensure that the pipes are firmly installed to avoid loosening due to external forces.

[0111] Furthermore, in the present invention, each of the ventilation pipes 51 extends from the partition structure 1 to the outside of the covering structure 6; the ventilation pipes 51 extend from the partition structure 1 to the outside of the covering structure 6 (such as the stone layer 61 and the soil layer) to ensure that the air inside the snake nest 101 can directly exchange with the external environment.

[0112] This design can effectively discharge the exhaust gas and moisture inside the snake nest 101 and introduce fresh air at the same time.

[0113] The outlet of the ventilation pipe 51 should be located outside the covering structure 6, but avoid direct exposure to rainwater or sunlight.

[0114] The outlet can be designed in the gaps of the stone layer 61 or at the bottom of the soil layer to prevent rainwater backflow and debris from entering.

[0115] Outlet height: The outlet of the ventilation pipe 51 should be higher than the ground to prevent surface water from flowing into the snake den 101; generally, the recommended outlet height is 10 - 20 cm.

[0116] Furthermore, in the present invention, each of the ventilation pipes 51 includes a horizontal pipe 511 and a vertical pipe 512; the horizontal pipe 511 and the vertical pipe 512 are arranged intersectingly; the ventilation pipe 51 has an L-shaped structure; the vertical pipe 512 is arranged towards the ground; each ventilation pipe 51 is composed of the horizontal pipe 511 and the vertical pipe 512, which are arranged intersectingly to form an L-shaped structure.

[0117] The horizontal pipe 511 is connected to the partition structure 1 and is responsible for introducing the air in the habitat space 4 into the pipe; the vertical pipe 512 extends to the outside of the covering structure 6 and is responsible for discharging the air from the snake den 101.

[0118] The L-shaped structure can effectively guide the air to flow from the habitat space 4 to the outside world, while preventing rainwater or debris from the outside from directly entering the snake den 101.

[0119] The vertical pipe 512 is arranged towards the ground. Even if rainwater flows into the pipe, it will drain along the vertical pipe 512 and will not backflow into the snake den 101.

[0120] The horizontal pipe 511 connects the habitat space 4 and the vertical pipe 512 and is responsible for introducing the air in the habitat space 4.

[0121] The horizontal pipe 511 should be as close as possible to the top of the habitat space 4 to prevent the snake from directly contacting the pipe and reducing the risk of the snake being injured.

[0122] The vertical pipe 512 guides the air from the horizontal pipe 511 to the outside of the covering structure 6 and discharges the air from the snake den 101; the vertical pipe 512 should be arranged towards the ground, and the outlet position should be higher than the ground to prevent rainwater backflow.

[0123] Generally, the recommended outlet height is 10 - 20 cm.

[0124] Furthermore, in the present invention, a habitat space 4 is formed between adjacent partition plates 2 placed adjacent to each other, and each habitat space 4 is connected to at least one ventilation pipe 51; the habitat space 4 formed between adjacent partition plates 2 placed adjacent to each other is the core area of the snake den 101, providing an independent hiding and resting place for the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0125] The size of the habitat space 4 should be designed according to the body size and quantity of the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0126] The height of the habitation space 4 should be moderate, usually 30 - 50 cm, to meet the activity needs of the snake, while avoiding waste of space caused by being too high.

[0127] A layer of soft material (such as hay, fine sand or leaves) can be laid on the ground of the habitation space 4 to improve comfort.

[0128] Each habitation space 4 is connected to at least one ventilation duct 51 to ensure that air can directly circulate to each independent space, meeting the breathing needs of the snake and regulating the internal humidity.

[0129] The ventilation ducts 51 should be distributed as evenly as possible to avoid insufficient ventilation in some habitation spaces 4.

[0130] Furthermore, in the present invention, an inlet / outlet 7 for the Tibet hot spring snake to enter and exit is provided on the covering structure 6; in the present invention, the function of the inlet / outlet 7 facilitates the entry and exit of the snake; the inlet / outlet 7 is a key part connecting the snake nest 101 with the outside world, ensuring that the Tibet hot spring snake can freely enter and exit the snake nest 101 to meet its needs for foraging, activities and returning to the habitation.

[0131] The size and shape of the inlet / outlet 7 should be designed according to the body size and habits of the Tibet hot spring snake, avoiding being too large or too small.

[0132] The inlet / outlet 7 needs to be designed narrow enough to prevent large natural enemies (such as birds, felines, etc.) from entering the snake nest 101, while being wide enough to meet the entry and exit needs of the snake.

[0133] The shape of the inlet / outlet 7 can be designed as a snake-shaped passage, with a smaller entrance and gradually expanding inside, which can both block natural enemies and facilitate the entry and exit of the snake.

[0134] The design of the inlet / outlet 7 should be as concealed as possible to avoid attracting the attention of the outside world and enhance the overall concealment of the snake nest 101.

[0135] The inlet / outlet 7 can be set on the side or bottom of the covering structure 6 to blend in with the surrounding environment. For example, it can be camouflaged using vegetation, stones or soil.

[0136] A habitat restoration system for the Tibet hot spring snake includes a hot spring stream, and the hot spring stream is connected to a slow-flow wetland 102; the slow-flow wetland 102 is connected to the hot spring stream through an influent channel 103; the slow-flow wetland 102 is connected to an effluent channel 104; a wild snake nest 101 for the Tibet hot spring snake is provided at the edge of the slow-flow wetland 102; the ecological restoration system disclosed in the present invention mainly includes a hot spring stream, a slow-flow wetland 102 and the connected snake nest 101, aiming to provide a suitable habitat environment for the Tibet hot spring snake while restoring and protecting the local ecological environment.

[0137] Hot spring stream: As the core part of the ecological restoration system, the hot spring stream provides necessary water sources and temperature regulation functions for the snakes; the water temperature of the hot spring stream is relatively stable, which can meet the needs of the Tibetan hot spring snake for a warm environment.

[0138] Slow-flow wetland 102: Connected to the hot spring stream through the influent channel 103, the slow-flow wetland 102 can slow down the water flow speed and provide a safer habitat and activity space for the snakes.

[0139] Aquatic plants can be planted in the wetland to attract insects and other small animals, providing a rich food source for the snakes.

[0140] The slow-flow wetland 102 has a backwater bay; frogs, toads, and fish in the slow-flow wetland 102 are for the adult Tibetan hot spring snakes to eat, and at the same time, tadpoles and small fish can also be eaten by the young snakes.

[0141] In the present invention, the snake den 101 is located at the edge of the slow-flow wetland 102, facilitating the snakes to move freely between the slow-flow wetland 102 and the snake den 101.

[0142] The ecological restoration system disclosed in the present invention can basically protect the Tibetan hot spring snakes, enabling the number of Tibetan hot spring snakes to be maintained or increased.

[0143] At the same time, the present invention can achieve water quality purification: through the action of aquatic plants and microorganisms, the slow-flow wetland 102 purifies the water quality of the hot spring stream and reduces pollutants.

[0144] The designs of the slow-flow wetland 102 and the snake den 101 take into account the living habits of the Tibetan hot spring snakes, providing suitable temperature, humidity, and hiding environments.

[0145] By creating a diverse ecological environment, other wild animals are attracted, enhancing the stability and biodiversity of the ecosystem.

[0146] In actual design, the ecological restoration system can also include some monitoring devices, that is, installing monitoring equipment to monitor the activities of the snakes and the changes in the ecological environment in real time, and taking protection measures in a timely manner; this ecological restoration system not only provides a suitable habitat environment for the Tibetan hot spring snakes, but also improves the ecological environment of the entire area through the ecological functions of the wetland.

[0147] Furthermore, in the present invention, a control valve structure 105 for controlling the water flow rate is provided on the influent channel 103 or / and the effluent channel 104; in the restoration system of the Tibetan hot spring snake habitat, the control valve structure 105 provided on the influent channel 103 and the effluent channel 104 is an important part to ensure the ecological restoration function and maintain a suitable environment.

[0148] By setting the control valve structure 105, the water flow velocity of the slow-flow wetland 102 can be controlled, enabling the slow-flow wetland 102 to autonomously form a wetland environment, which is convenient for subsequently providing a food environment for the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0149] In the present invention, the main function of the control valve structure 105 is to regulate the water flow rates of the water inlet channel 103 and the water outlet channel 104 to ensure that the water levels, water flow velocities, and water quality of the wetland and the snake nest 101 meet the requirements of ecological restoration.

[0150] Specific functions include: regulating water flow rate: By adjusting the opening and closing of the control valve and the position of the valve core, the size of the water flow can be precisely controlled to meet the water volume requirements of the wetland ecosystem.

[0151] Ensuring ecological flow: Ensuring that the water levels and water flow velocities in the wetland and the snake nest 101 are appropriate to avoid adverse effects on the ecological environment caused by overly fast or slow water flows.

[0152] Water quality regulation: By controlling the water flow velocity and flow rate, the purification effect of the wetland on pollutants is promoted, and good water quality is maintained.

[0153] The control valve structure 105 can use existing sluice valve structures. Of course, it can also be designed into other valve body structures according to needs.

[0154] The present invention

[0155] A habitat restoration system for the Tibetan hot spring snake mainly restores the core elements of the habitat of the Tibetan hot spring snake.

[0156] Firstly, hot spring resource protection: The Tibetan hot spring snake relies on the thermal energy of hot springs to regulate its body temperature. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the hot spring eye and the surrounding thermal energy resources to avoid interference caused by geothermal development.

[0157] Wetland restoration: The habitats of the Tibetan hot spring snake are usually closely related to wetlands. It is necessary to restore and protect static wetlands to provide suitable habitats and breeding grounds for the snakes.

[0158] Restoration of stone piles and vegetation: The Tibetan hot spring snake often moves and hides from natural enemies in stone piles. Therefore, it is necessary to retain or reconstruct a certain area of stone piles and plant native vegetation to provide shelter and food sources.

[0159] Improvement of ecosystem functions

[0160] Rebuilding the food chain: The Tibetan hot spring snake feeds on fish, frogs, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to reintroduce or protect its food sources, such as Schizothorax oconnori, Triplophysa spp., and frogs.

[0161] Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited by the above-mentioned methods. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, they are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
