ï¼?/p>
volunteers are being sou
ght to visit a nature protection area to count
the butterflies living there and on surrounding fields
ï¼?/p>
The project is promoted by all environmental
protection
organisation
ï¼?/p>
which
has
contributed
to
improving
the
living
environment
for
wild
animals
ï¼?/p>
Recently
ï¼?/p>
the organisation has issued an appeal to help it observe environmental changes
based on the record of butterflies and protect the environment
ï¼?/p>
In
the
area
ï¼?/p>
the
local
people
have
planted
many
special
flowers
with
the
help
of
the
organisation
ï¼?/p>
aiming
to
see
whether
these
flowers
will
interest
the
rare
and
beautiful
butterflies
ï¼?/p>
The
project officer
Sarah
Marshall
says
,�/p>
It
will
be
a
suitable
habitat(
栖息åœ?/p>
)for
butterflies
ï¼?/p>
They are great
�/p>
indicator
species�/p>
as they are easily affected by climate changes so they
make a brilliant early
�/p>
warning system for the environment.
�/p>
She also points out that volunteers
are needed to record the number or species of butterflies
ï¼?/p>
and based on the change happening to
the butterflies
ï¼?/p>
the hidden environmental problems in the area earl be found out in time.
The
organisation
is
seeking
volunteers
to
help
monitor
butterflies
from
April
through
to
September
ï¼?/p>
They will walk a fixed route and record the different butterflies they encounter along
the way
ï¼?/p>
Each visit should take no more than two hours
ï¼?/p>
and each volunteer is expected to visit
once a month to count the wildlife
.�/p>
Staff will provide back up
ï¼?/p>
so if the weather is poor on the
day you are to visit (butterflies don't like to fly in the rain
ï¼?/p>
wind or if it's too cloudy)we can have
someone else do your job
,�/p>
Sarah points out
ï¼?/p>
No
previous
experience
is
necessary
as
training
and
support
will
be
provided
ï¼?/p>
but
a
keen
interest is essential
