"Rabbit Round"=Chinese Science Stories+Chinese Traditional Culture
The mascot "Rabbit Yuanyuan" not only embodies the preferences and expectations of the whole network audience from big data research, but also contains the meaning and beauty of the traditional culture of the rabbit, and creatively presents the scientific research achievements of Chinese scientists.
The "Anhui model pika" is the world's earliest rabbit like animal discovered so far, and its living age is the Early Paleocene, 62 million years ago. It was discovered and named by Mr. Li Chuankui of the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The fossils are now collected in the Chinese Museum of Paleontology. Li Chuankui and other paleontologists of the older generation led the scientific research team to run on the mountains and gobi of the motherland for decades, filling the gaps step by step, so that China has nearly complete fossil evidence of rabbit evolution. The four symbolic incisors of "rabbit round" are taken from the typical characteristics of the ecological restoration image of the fossil "Anhui model pika". Experts said that the mascot of the Spring Festival Gala, "the round rabbit", is not only the Chinese zodiac rabbit in the sense of traditional culture, but also the "ancestor" of the Chinese white rabbit that embodies the spirit of Chinese scientists.
