Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Full reconstruction
Tiger Pavilion is under construction, and the design of the Red Panda Pavilion has been completed. Alpacas and peacocks will solve it with a small cost.
As for macaques and red foxes…
The Monkey Mountain where the macaques are, Fang Ye thinks it's okay.
Because at the beginning of the zoo, Monkey Mountain was built on the scale of more than 100 macaques, and the area is quite large, with a thousand square meters.
Now there are only a dozen of them left for transfer, and there is more than enough space.
may be due to the "Journey to the West" written by Wu Chengen. Everyone acquiesces that the monkeys live in the Huaguoshan Shuiliandong. When the animal welfare is not known, the monkey house in the zoo will basically be equipped with a mountain.
The main habitat of macaques is indeed in the dense forests or sparsely forested rocky mountains on the rocky cliffs, riverside valleys and river banks. The construction of the monkey mountain invisibly meets the animal welfare and satisfies their needs for climbing and status expression.
Of course, from Fang Ye's point of view, there are still many shortcomings in the current Monkey Mountain. It is trapped, which can easily arouse the desire of tourists to feed themselves. Another entertainment facility is not that rich.
But the advantage of the large space is that the macaques usually play on the monkey hill in the middle, some distance from the edge, which is less affected by feeding. In addition, the zoo usually has fewer visitors, so there is no obvious begging behavior.
The purpose of displaying wild animals in captivity is to protect and educate them, to show their natural behavior in the wild environment, instead of doing nothing, standing on the edge of the exhibition area, waiting for humans to feed.
In fact, what the animals in the zoo eat every day is scientifically matched. If you don't let them vote, don't vote. However, there are tourists who want to feed, causing many animals to be fed badly and have bad habits.
Think about it later, Fang Ye, it is a good thing to take over such a declining zoo. There are few animals, the living space is relatively spacious, there are few tourists, the breeder can supervise it, the impact of feeding and the sight pressure on the animals are small.
So, although some of these animals in the zoo are not very energetic, they at least have no serious stereotyped behaviors and begging behaviors.
pulled away.
In short, Monkey Mountain does not currently have such a strong need for complete reconstruction.
You can add some simple enrichment facilities, such as swings, slings, and perches.
The pool is also a good entertainment place for macaques, but it involves water pipelines, which is more troublesome, so let's wait for the reconstruction.
Fang Ye is a little embarrassed by the remaining red fox.
The small venue is too awkward for activities. If it is like a tiger and a wolf, it seems a bit too wasteful to build a large venue specifically for it.
People have a high attack power, and the separation is to protect tourists from harm. The fox is forced to bite and can't bite the dead. At most, a vaccine will be given.
But like an alpaca or a peacock, it doesn't work to cut out a field and put it outside. A fox is a ghost and will not stay obediently in an area for people to visit, and just go wherever you decide.
thought for a long time, and sighed: "Hey, we can only build a small stadium first!"
Because it was intended to be used as a transitional pavilion, the design was not too careful.
100 square meters, the piano line barrier on the visiting surface, the ground is mainly made of yellow sand, and some trees with thin trunks that cannot be climbed are planted on the background wall, which looks more green and natural. Put two big rocks and a few bushes to provide a place to hide, and it's done.
costs 4000 Leaf Coins.
Although it is very simple and crude, it is still many times stronger than their previous living conditions.
In the future, it is possible to build a large venue to mix red foxes with other animals, such as deer.
Although the red fox is a carnivorous animal, the diet is mainly small animals such as mice, frogs, and birds. It also eats some fruits. Deer is a creature that can cause no harm, and it is even more unimaginable to kill a deer and taste the meat.
While the deer is purely vegetarian, there is basically no competition for resources, the personality is docile and uncompetitive, and it is also not okay to attack foxes, like this, you can consider polyculture.
It's simple to say, but polyculture is a very complicated and difficult thing, but the benefits are obvious.
First, it greatly improves the utilization of the venue space; second, it creates more interesting display content for tourists; third, the reasonable mixing of different animals can increase environmental stimulation and benefit their physical and mental health.
Anyway, when the conditions are ripe, I will definitely try it.

"Either build a part of the wolf hall first."
Fang Ye touched his chin and thought: "Don't build the fence and the tourist area, just build the animal living area. The consumption of natural materials is still relatively small. Start construction early to save time."
Wolves and tigers are carnivores with similar themes, so the wolf hall is placed next to the tiger hall.
When the future Leopard Pavilion and Lion Pavilion is built, a "Predator Corridor" can be formed to make a debut.
After delineating the area, he took a look at the sand table. This is an uneven mountainous area. The zoo didn't use it much before. It just built a pavilion on the mountain and used it as a resting place for tourists.
But for the other side, following the mountainous terrain, it happened to be an article.
First, there is a clear and rushing stream, from the high rocks to the lowlands and finally converges to form an open and peaceful pond.
is paved with massive rocks to make the slopes steeper and clearer, and the stream flows as if they are jumping down steps, creating the feeling of a microscopic waterfall.
The rushing streams and waterfalls can increase the excitement of wolves and encourage them to be more active, because wolves tend to drive their prey to cliffs or riversides during encirclement hunting raids to increase the success rate of hunting.
And the waters are vibrant and the vegetation is lush, it is a good place to play.
There are some dead woods on the stream and the surrounding open space, a few weeds are added between the cracks of the rocks, and some aquatic plants such as reeds are planted on the edge of the pond, which looks more natural.
A stone cave was built in the upper reaches of the stream to provide a place for the wolves to warm, hide from the rain and rest.
The cave is close to a visiting point, and the entrance is slightly inclined to strike a balance between blocking the view and displaying it for tourists.
Wolves are highly adaptable and are distributed in various ecological environments, such as forests, deserts, mountains, tundra, coniferous forests…
So the habitat environment can be made a little more complicated.
For the forest, just use the original trees in this area, add a little more flowers and shrubs, and cover the ground with fallen leaves.
In the mountains, get a pile of large flat stones and spread them out along the steps of the stream.
Come to a dry sandy land area as a desert.
With the help of uneven terrain and stream partitions, the various regions are clearly layered and harmoniously integrated.
In this way, the space utilization rate is improved, the content is richer, and the wolves can show more natural behaviors in different scenes!
Swimming in the stream, rolling in the fallen leaves, observing from a distance on the rocks, digging pits and blowing sand in the sandy soil… is wonderful everywhere.
