urban area and will not cause any impact to wild animals and their habitats. Two hills (Huangtuling and Mulingdong) are beside Huancheng Xilu, which are small hills and locate in the core urban area. The west sides of the two hills have been separated with the other hills by the built Provincial Highway 71. According to the survey results, the wild animals in the hills include swallow, sparrow, hare, field mouse, frog, toad, and snake, etc., but no passageways of rare and endangered wild animals or large wide animals. To sum up, the project construction will cause less impact on the animals and their habitats.
