Located at the entrance of the Irtysh Grand Canyon, the main scenic spot of Keketuohai, the overall area is 20,000 square meters, and the building area is 8,000 square meters. The appearance of the museum has a unique shape. The terrain is integrated to protect the local environment to the greatest extent, highlighting the philosophical concept of "harmony between man and nature", and the museum has rich and precious displays.

p4. Three-toed horse fossil (back), Zulu fossil (front).

Three-toed horses have high crowns and chalky-covered cheek teeth. As the high crown teeth wear away, the complex structure of enamel is exposed on the chewing surface. Although these enamel structures vary between ages and individuals, different The genus and species also have their own unique style, which can be used as an important sign of identification. The inner side of the original tip of the upper cheek teeth of the three-toed horse, that is, the side close to the tongue. Compared with modern horses, the limbs of the three-toed horse are thinner Long. The earliest middle-toed horses first crossed the Bering land bridge from North America to Asia at the beginning of the Late Miocene 1.2 million years ago, and then spread rapidly to Europe and Africa.
p5. Wool rhinoceros (scientific name Coelodonta antiquitatis)
▲▲▲
Also known as the woolly rhino, it is an extinct rhinoceros that lived in the Pleistocene and survived the Ice Age. The woolly rhino lived in northern Eurasia, while its close relative, the plate-toothed rhino, lived in the south. The woolly rhinoceros has a flat horn that can push away the snow to graze. It also has a thick layer of fur and fat to keep warm in the cold environment. In October 2009, it was discovered in Wangqing County, Jilin Province that it was extinct 10,000 years ago. The woolly rhinoceros skull fossil. It is generally believed that it developed under the climate conditions of the Pleistocene ice age, but the woolly rhinoceros fossils have also been found in the deposits of the grassland environment with a mild climate. The living age is about 12,000 to 4,000 years ago between.

Around 10 million years ago, in the Miocene Era, a very specialized elephant appeared on the earth. Its lower jaw was extremely elongated, and a pair of flat lower incisors grew side by side at the front end, resembling a large shovel , hence the name Shovel-toothed Elephant. Shoveltodons live by rivers and lakes, use shovel teeth to cut and scoop up plants in shallow water, and use their long trunk to help push food into their mouths.
In Asia, North America, Europe and Africa, the fossils of the shovel tooth were found. According to their morphological differences, scientists divided them into three categories: the shovel tooth, the shovel tooth, and the saw tooth tooth. The shovel plate is short and wide, and the upper incisors are shorter than the shovel plate, while the shovel tooth is long and narrow, and the upper incisors are longer than the lower incisors. The world's first complete shovel tooth skeleton was found in Tongxin County, Ningxia, China fossil.

Survival period from Devonian to present. Zheluo salmon (scientific name: Hucho taimen), is a cold-water freshwater carnivorous fish, mainly distributed in northern Asia, west to the Volga River Basin, east to the Pechora River Basin, south It is found in the Heilongjiang River Basin and the Lena River Basin in the north. Jerro salmon live in fast-flowing streams most of the time, overwinter in deeper water bodies such as major rivers and lakes in winter, and migrate to streams to spawn in spring. Ferocious, large in size, more than 1 meter in length, but individuals with a length of 4 meters and a weight of 90 kg have been found.

p13. Psittacosaurus group

Early Cretaceous (130 million-110 million years ago). Psittacosaurus, also translated as Psittacosaurus, means "parrot lizard" in Greek. , about 130 million years ago to 110 million years ago. Dinosaurs such as Psittacosaurus, Protoceratops, and Triceratops all had a beak with a hook like a parrot. Scientists judged it from its body shape and survival age It is inferred that Psittacosaurus may be the ancestor of most ceratopsian dinosaurs.
Keketuohai is rich in mineral resources. The gemstones and mineral specimens mined are of high economic and scientific value. The new mineral named "Irtysh Stone" has only been discovered in the world so far. It is the rarest mineral specimen, the largest single crystal tantalum-niobium mineral specimen has been found in the world, and so on. Most of the rare and rare treasures displayed in the museum are raw ores, from which you can see the growth forms of various ores.

In Li Juan's "Take a Sledge to Keketuohai" read: "When I was very young, Keketuohai in my imagination was a world of gems, even the paving stones are gems, which can be picked up everywhere. Crystals and garnets.” Also: “When I was young, there were a few boarders in my class who were from Keketuohai. Every time they returned to school from home, they would carry a schoolbag with tree-shaped crystals, cylindrical aquamarines, etc. There are many bright translucent stones (probably agate),—give them to us."

▲▲▲
Late Miocene. Jungle chicken is the ancestor of domestic chicken. It is also known as Camellia chicken because of its crowing sound like "two miscellaneous camellias". The body feathers of roosters are mostly red, and the lower body is dark brown. The body feathers of hens are mostly dark brown. , the upper back is yellow with black stripes, and the chest is brown. The adult rooster weighs 1-1.5 kg and crows at the age of 5 months. The hen weighs 1-1.1 kg and starts laying at the age of 6 months. The annual egg production is 130-150 pieces. The egg weight is about 38 grams, the eggshell is dark brown, and the hatching period is 21 days. Artificially raised jungle chickens have the advantages of wide adaptability, fast growth, extensive feeding, less feed intake, and high survival rate.
p18. Cog elephant head
▲▲▲
Cogtodon is the most basic genus of long-jawed mastodons. The upper incisors are quite large, slightly curved downward and outward; the symphysis of the lower jaw grows into a beak-like shape, embedded in the middle of the upper incisors on both sides, hence the name The lower incisors are slightly curved downward, and the cross-section tends to be flat. The tips of the cheek teeth are conical (papillary). The appendages are well developed, and the trilobal pattern is clear after abrasion. The middle cheek teeth have three transverse ridges.

Here, you can also learn how earthquakes act on the earth's crust. The Fuyun Earthquake that occurred on August 11, 1931, almost affected the whole world, and the area where the earthquake was strongly felt was 2,500 kilometers in diameter. Due to the arid climate in the cold temperate zone of the Fuyun earthquake fault zone, it is less damaged by rainwater and human activities. The most spectacular, amazing and best-preserved earthquake relics in the history of earthquakes in the world are preserved in the epicenter area, known as "earthquake". Museum". In the museum, you can see models and pictures of the earthquake fault zone, which can clearly restore the moment of the earthquake.
