From  March  to  November   each  year,Huang  Yahui   and  her  team   live  outdoors,carrying camping     equipment,cameras,and      notebooks.They      travel      through      forests,mountains,and highlands in Xinjiang to do research.

Huang's love for nature began when she was a  child,   and  her  passion( 热 情 )for  butterflies grew  as  she  got  older.In  2011,she  joined  a  research  team   led  by   Professor  Ma   Ming  as  a volunteer.Huang  spent  several  months  working  with  the  team,doing  fieldwork  and  focusing  on bird  protection.

Huang has developed a strong passion for butterflies.Over the years,she and her team have recorded  more  than  200  species  of butterflies, recording   the  habitats( 栖 息 地 ) and  collecting important data to protect biodiversity( 生物多样性).

“Butterflies are an  indicator    species for climate (气 候 )change,"she      explained.“They      are sensitive ( 敏感的)to  smallchanges  in  climate,and  the  changes  in  their  numbers  can  tell  us  a  lot about  the  environment.”

One  day,while  exploring  the  Tianshan  Mountains,Huang  and  her  team  discovered  a  rare (稀有的)butterfly  species  with  shining  wings.“It's  the  Parnassius  loxias.I    found    it!” Huang  said  excitedly.This  species  had  not  been  seen  for  over  a  century,and  Huang  felt  like  she  was connecting with scientists from the past.

  ▲   It   is   difficult   to   follow   butterflies.Human   activities   have   also   destroyed   many butterfly  habitats.Huang  and  her  team  help  local  farmers  make  more  room  for  the  wildlife  to  live safely.
