The stern head of the Great Sage turned around, and the end of his tail was shaking slightly like an electric shock.
The tourists can't help but laugh, this animal is really fun!
Not only the face is very funny, but the whole body is full of drama.
Lin Hao looked at the Great Sage Li lying there, looking very leisurely, and suddenly remembered a question.
The weather started to get hot in summer. The climate on Linhai is hot and humid, and it can be said to be quite different from that on the plateau.
Animals such as giant pandas and macaques can be bathed in the water to cool down. How does the rabbit cool down? Seeing that it will be in a comfortable state, it does not appear to be uncomfortable.
After asking Dawu, Dawu scratched his head: "Should the rabbits change their fur in summer? After changing the fur, it will not be so hot."
A female tourist next to him heard the words and smiled and said: "I heard from the breeder that not only does the Tutu Pavilion have air-conditioning in the back shed, but also has a cooling device installed in the playground. It is hot outside and cool inside. Tutu stays very comfortable, and There is also an ultraviolet sterilization device!"
"That's it!"
Hearing what the tourist knew very well, Dawu spoke a few words.
It turns out that this female tourist is a squirrel fan, and every time she has to go to Xiye to see squirrels, it's a pity that she is too far away.
Now there are Tutu here in Linhai. She lives in the nearby Blue River City, which makes it a lot more convenient to come and see Tutu. I waited for an hour or two at the Tuxie Hall just to watch the Tuxie move out of the back room for a while and take a few photos.
Speaking of Tutu, his face was full of smiles. Constantly praise the environment of the pavilion here, full of beautiful words for Linhai Zoo!
…
After visiting Tutu, Lin Hao and the others went down to the elephant house and strolled.
Here is a cornfield planted on the route to the Elephant Pavilion!
Corn was planted with rice, and now it has grown very vigorously in May.
A large piece of green corn stood erect in the field. The broad leaves stretched out. When the wind blew, they brushed and rattled, like a green sea wave surging, looking very gratifying.
In front of the corn field is a meandering river, and the warm golden sunlight gleams on the river, sparkling, and the breeze brings a fresh breath, blowing on people's faces.
Behind the cornfield is a two-story bamboo building with Dai characteristics. On the second floor, there seems to be a bunch of bacon hanging under the eaves of the balcony, and there are some green trees about the height of the bamboo building next to it, which is poetic and full of rustic flavor.
Looking at such a beautiful scene like a paradise, people feel in a daze, as if unconsciously, they have come to the residence of some hermit master. Every day the sunrise is plowing the fields, and the sunset is drinking by the river and the moon!
Lin Hao walked from here for the first time, and said in surprise: "Yeah, when did you plant the corn?"
Dawu said, "Yes, besides the rice field next to the alpacas in the zoo, there is also a corn field here."
Some look forward to it: "I really want to wait until it's ripe to taste what it tastes like. This is also organic corn that has not been sprayed with pesticides! It must taste very good. I have eaten organic potatoes grown by the garden leader in the Panda restaurant before. It's really unstoppable. With the delicious bamboo shoot soup, it's hard for the gods."
Lily said: "Magic, the head of the garden used magic!"
Dawu smiled and said, "Archdruid, you have a good hand in cultivating crops!"
There is also a sign at the entrance of the path from the farmland to the bamboo house.
Lin Hao couldn't wait to say: "Go, let's go and take a look!"
Walking through the cornfield, walking on the trail, you can reach out and touch the green corn leaves on both sides, which is really immersive.
Go up the stairs to the second floor of the bamboo house.
On the balcony, you can clearly see the scene of elephants moving in the playground!
There is an arch-like building in the playground, and water flows down like a waterfall from above.
Falling into the wide pool below, a piece of white water splashed.
This would normally be playing happily in the water. The gray skin was covered with a layer of water, and it was shining in the sun, like a layer of sunscreen.
After walking a few steps forward, the whole body dived into the water.
Although you can't see what you are doing in the water, you can imagine how it happily shakes its head underwater and makes waves with its huge body by looking at the waves constantly surging on the surface of the water!
The tourists looked at the scene of elephants playing in the water and exclaimed with joy.
The elephant dives into the water completely, and there is no need to worry about being choked by the water, because there is a "valve" in the trunk of the elephant, which can be closed when it absorbs water.
I got up in the pool, went out and ran around and came back.
Meiling, Meilan, and Bobo are also soaking in the pool!
A group of elephants took a bath, and Bobo lay directly on his side in the water, looking very comfortable.
When it is hot in summer, taking a bath and playing in the water can not be more fun, and tourists are also happy for them.
Dawu smiled and took two photos: "I really don't poke!"
Lin Hao was on the balcony, looking at the scenery of elephants playing in the water, and strolling around in the observation hut.
The Observation Cabin is not only a visit point, but also a small exhibition hall. There is a popular science exhibition sign on the wall, and a two-meter-long white yellow ivory on the table is displayed as the exhibit.
The huge ivory is very eye-catching at a glance!
A child is reaching out and touching it curiously.
The ivory is not covered with a cover, and it is marked below: "This ivory is a model."
Lin Hao walked over and subconsciously touched the ivory to feel it.
The sign next to it is devoted to ivory.
"What can elephants do with ivory?"
Lin Hao guessed in his heart: "It will definitely help the elephant fight."
Looking down, I found that ivory has a lot of functions!
Elephants can use their long tusks to dig up the sand to obtain the salt and minerals in the soil, or to look for groundwater during the dry season.
In severe droughts, rivers and other surface water dries up, and elephants can use ivory to dig a hole a few meters away, and wait for groundwater to slowly seep out of the sand. This function of digging holes to obtain groundwater is very useful for elephants to spend the dry season safely. After the elephants have finished drinking and walked away, they will also gather around the water hole to have a drink. If elephants become extinct, many animals may not survive the dry season.
Ivory can also be used to break branches with ivory and peel the bark with one side of ivory. Elephants also have their own side teeth, which is equivalent to human left-handed right-handed.
And it can also help male elephants gain the love of female elephants.
Okay, I'm too short-sighted!
Lin Hao continued to look at the exhibition signs, and the following content became a little heavy.
More and more elephants are now fangs.
In the absence of poaching, only 2%-4% of female African elephants will not grow teeth.
But because of poaching, elephants with beautiful long tusks will be brutally killed. Male elephants generally have larger and heavier tusks than female elephants. Therefore, male elephants bear the brunt when encountering poachers.
When the male elephants were hunted in large numbers, the poachers took aim at the female elephants. The female elephants with ivory were killed, and those without ivory escaped, and slowly gave birth to more toothless offspring. The same is true for Asian elephants. Elephants with long tusks may be caught for work.
