[0002] Tree shrews are small mammals belonging to arboreal marsupials. They are usually small in size, with soft hair and large bright eyes. Tree shrews mainly inhabit tropical rainforests, are good at climbing and jumping, and their hands and feet have special adaptabilities to tightly grasp tree branches and trunks. Tree shrews are nocturnal animals, feeding on insects, fruits and nectar, and some species also eat small vertebrates.

In the utility model, the rotation of the second motor drives the second control rope to loosen. Because the second control rope loosens, the shutters around the observation cage will fall. At the same time, when the second motor rotates, it will also drive the first control rope to retract and release, causing the first control rope to open the shutter on the top of the observation cage, so that the tree shrew is in a dark environment, and thus researchers can perform operations away from the observation cage to prevent the tree shrew from being frightened.
