Four-Month-Old Baby Dies After Being Thrown From the Rooftop by Monkey in India's Uttar Pradesh_我的网站

一 |     A four-month-old was killed by a monkey that threw the baby from the rooftop of a three-story building in a village located in India's Uttar Pradesh state.,The incident occurred in Dunka Village, located close to Bareilly District.,It happened as Nirdesh Upadhyay and his wife and baby boy were walking on the terrace of their house. The father was carrying the child in his arms. Suddenly, a number of monkeys came from nowhere and attacked the family.,When Nirdesh tried to run toward the stairs, the boy fell from his hands. A monkey immediately grabbed the baby and threw him off the roof.,The baby died on the spot.,Bareilly's Chief Conservator of Forests Lalit Verma said that the incident was reported last Friday and a forest department team was sent to investigate the matter.,The rhesus macaques, generally speaking, are a harmless and peaceful species and live in troops.,As humans generally feed these monkeys, they lose their sense of fear and start attacking humans when they're hungry and sometimes angry, ecology researcher Asmita Sengupta of the Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment told Reuters.,Often monkey-human encounters have turned tragic.,According to Dailymail.co.uk, a five-year-old girl was killed by monkeys in the village of Bichpuri, in the Bareilly District, in February.,In January, a three-month-old baby named Prince died when he was dragged away by a monkey and thrown into a water tank. The incident occurred in Gadhi Kalanjari in Uttar Pradesh's Baghpat District.,Many Indian states, including Uttar Pradesh, have introduced surgical sterilization for rhesus monkeys, aimed at curbing their ever-increasing population and finding a possible solution to the rising reports of simian violence. However, the measure has proven futile.,In 2019, the Indian government also considered alternate means of population control for the macaques. Immunocontraception is a technique which involves the administration of a vaccine that creates a temporary immune response against a protein or hormone crucial to reproduction, therefore rendering the monkeys infertile.,However, this program met several obstacles and failed to achieve its goal.,Want to know more?

二 |     研究作者Gianluca Piovesan和Charles H. Cannon等人写道：“古树是保护受威胁物种的独特栖息地，因为它们可以抵御和缓冲气候变暖。

三 | 其中一些树木，如加州和内华达州白山的狐尾松可以活到5000年，并作为大规模的碳储存。”古树是菌根连接的热点，这种与地下真菌的共生关系为植物提供了它们生存所需的许多营养物质。这种与真菌的共生关系也有助于减少干燥环境中的干旱。古树在保护规划中发挥着不成比例的巨大作用，然而在全球范围内正以惊人的速度流失。科学家们建议采取双管齐下的战略来保护古树：首先，通过繁殖和保存这些古树的种质和分生组织来保护这些树木；其次，有计划地将完全保护和森林野化结合起来。位于白山内的一棵名为Methuselah的狐尾松是世界上已知的、经证实的最古老的活树，有4854年的历史。

四 | 他们写道：“绘制和监测古老的森林和古树可以直接评估保护区的有效性和可持续性以及它们的生态完整性。为了开展这个雄心勃勃的项目，需要一个基于先进技术的全球监测平台，同时需要公众通过社区科学项目作出贡献。

五 | ”目前，保护森林、林地、历史花园以及城市和农业地区的古树仍然受到国家政策水平的限制。据作者称，“目前对《生物多样性公约》和《2030年议程》的可持续发展目标15‘土地上的生命’的审查应包括对古树名木的测绘和监测，作为保护区在维护和恢复森林完整性以实现可持续发展的有效性的关键指标。”“我们呼吁国际社会努力保护这些多样性和复原力的中心。需要建立一个全球联盟，利用先进的技术和社区科学家来发现、保护和繁殖古树，以免它们消失。
