最近，有網友在湖北秭歸旅遊時，發現長江邊有一座小山，其輪廓酷似一隻乖乖趴著的小狗。網友們紛紛稱這座山為“小狗山”，並引發了廣泛關注。
When Shanghai-based designer Guo Qingshan posted a vacation photo on Valentine's Day and captioned it "Puppy Mountain", it became a sensation in China and even created a tourist destination.
成千上萬的網友紛紛圍觀並留言：“這不就是我家的小狗嗎？”“這張圖不會是P的吧？”在此需要澄清一下，“小狗山”是真的！它就位於宜昌秭歸九畹溪大橋對面。
The mountain is located in Zigui county in Yichang, along the Yangtze River. While hiking on the Jiuwanxi Bridge during the Spring Festival holiday, Guo noticed the mountain's outline while reviewing his photos and shared his discovery on Chinese lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu.
“小狗山”的最佳拍照打卡地點是它對面的牛肝馬肺峽觀景平臺。從觀景臺望去，視線左側江邊的那座小山丘，形狀神似一隻趴在地上的小狗。
萌態十足的“小狗山”迅速引發了網友們的品種討論。大家紛紛曬出自家狗狗的對比照。
這樣的大自然“萌物”究竟是怎麼“組成”的
根據自然資源部首席科學傳播專家、地質旅遊專家李忠東分析，這座山體可能屬於喀斯特地貌（karst landform），而“眼睛”很可能是一個正在形成的溶洞（karst cave）。
Li Zhongdong, a geological tourism expert, said "Puppy Mountain" was formed by karst processes, creating a karst landform."The puppy's eyes, the area between the eyebrows and the corners of its mouth may be the entrance of a karst cave," Li said. "The white section between its forehead and nose might be a cliff formed by a collapse, while the appearance of its ears is primarily a visual effect created by vegetation coverage."
從“眼睛”裡的視角看，景象是這樣的：
The mountain has also garnered international attention. Japan's Abema News reported that many tourists have flocked to the area, surprised to have missed the adorable feature during previous visits. The Associated Press reported that many people traveled to Yichang to see the mountain for themselves, with some even bringing their dogs for photo opportunities. Sky News and the BBC in the United Kingdom and CBS News from the United States also covered the story.
While the internet marvels at the mountain, local authorities have issued a warning. The area is remote and steep and not yet developed as an official scenic site. Visitors are advised to view and take photos from a distance at the observation platform on the opposite bank, known as the "Ox Liver and Horse Lung" Gorge, named after two naturally hanging yellow-brown stalactites on the steep cliffs of the northern bank of the river.
