Chapter 268: Chapter 268: Tortoise
After admiring the crocodile for a while, a few people walked to the exit, passing by some oncoming tourists.
Many tourists have watched the crocodile on the top, and then turned back to the bottom!
Generally speaking, the route back and forth is a bit stupid, like the Wolf Hall, which can walk through all the visiting points along a road.
However, the path of the crocodile pool is relatively short, and it will go around several tens of meters. Otherwise, the upper bridge, the underground corridor, and the two slopes that gently enter the underground and rise up will be too short for the upper and lower visiting surfaces, which may cause The congestion of tourists makes it unsightly to visit.
Dawu was at the end of the underground corridor, looking at a popular science exhibition sign, and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Huh!"
Lin Hao curiously asked, "Well, what's the matter?"
Dawu pointed to the sign: "Look at this, the story of the crocodile and the toothpick bird turned out to be fake! I was deceived for many years!"
The display was accompanied by a picture of a crocodile with an open mouth and a bird standing in its mouth, which looked very harmonious.
Lin Hao was also shocked immediately: "Huh?"
Although the story of crocodile tears hadn't been thought of before, he knew instinctively that it was fake, because what kind of animal would shed tears in sympathy when hunting and filling their stomachs. Isn't it a disease? It is only right to be happy if you have caught the prey and can live.
But he always thought the story of the crocodile and the toothpick bird was true. He had read it in many story books and chicken soup articles, and he used it when he was writing.
"Rumor: Crocodiles are very ferocious. In the place where crocodiles live, other animals are cautious when they drink water by the river, for fear of being eaten by crocodiles. However, in nature, there is such a kind of bird, not only Fearing crocodiles will take the initiative to get close to them. What is even more strange is that crocodiles will not harm them.
This kind of bird is called the toothpick bird. After the crocodile eats, it will open its mouth to allow the toothpick bird to enter its mouth, and the toothpick bird will eat the meat and parasites stuffed by the crocodile's teeth and clean the crocodile. The two are in a mutually beneficial and symbiotic relationship.
Truth: Crocodiles do not need to clean their teeth, their teeth will grow new teeth regularly. And the crocodile's teeth are very wide, so there is no stuffing of teeth.
It is generally believed that the toothpick bird is an Egyptian plover, but biologists have spent decades observing and found that they have no habit of flicking crocodile teeth at all. There are only a few photos of crocodiles and toothpick birds on the Internet, and there is no reliable source.
Many birds are very close to crocodiles when foraging, and crocodiles will not take care of the birds when they are basking in the sun. If the crocodile has its mouth open and there is a bug in its mouth, the bird may take a bite. The story of the crocodile and the toothpick bird may have stemmed from such a misunderstanding. "
Lin Hao looked at the photo, the teeth in the crocodile's mouth were scattered, and his face looked like constipation!
Nima, how can the teeth be stuffed with such a wide gap? Obviously it is a rumor! When I was a child, I actually believed it naively.
Dawu said with emotion: "After visiting the zoo a few times now, I found that we have really misunderstood these animals too much! Reptiles such as crocodiles have also carried the name of a cold-blooded animal on their backs."
Lin Hao also complained: "Yes, humans like to use these animals to write fables or chicken soup articles. What is the truth, but can you respect the habits of animals when writing stories? Don't write anything, especially this kind of obvious nonsense. of."
Coming out of the crocodile exhibition area, I turned a corner and came to the exhibition area of the black-shoe tortoise.
This is a very open space, and some tourists are admiring it by the side of the exhibition area.
The uneven and slightly undulating ground is covered with a layer of fine fallen leaves, and the sun shines through the gaps between palms and plantains, mottled on the ground.
The pool in the middle of the exhibition area is very beautiful, like a clear and bright mirror, reflecting the rocks and trees on the shore.
Lin Hao looked at the exhibition area, his eyes lit up: "Wow, the environment here is very good! What kind of animals do you keep?"
"Here is the black-shoe tortoise!" Dawu smiled and said, stretching out his fingers, "Do you think there is one there?"
The edge of the exhibition area of the black booted tortoise was slightly built up with stones, and low wood was used as a fence. The protection was very simple. You can reach the ground in the exhibition area by bending your hand out.
A few meters away from the fence, the tortoise Xiaoxuan in black boots with heavy armor on his back was slowly moving his scaly legs on the fallen leaves.
It's better to say it's walking than plowing with a hoe!
It walked slowly and slowly, only moving forward a little at a time, everyone's eyes couldn't help moving along with it.
After a minute, I moved a few meters forward and came to a place where there was no shade. It seemed to feel that it was a little warmer. After looking around for a while, I lay down, my body was close to the ground, and I was quietly basking in the sun.
A little girl took her parent's hand, her body almost leaned against the wooden fence, and said excitedly: "Baba, big tortoise!"
The parent smiled and said, "Well, big tortoise!"
"Why doesn't the big tortoise move anymore?"
"It's basking in the sun!"
Lily was full of playfulness like a child, squatted down and beckoned enthusiastically, and greeted Xiaoxuan: "Hello?"
Xiaoxuan is too lazy to bird her!
The black-shoe tortoises were relatively timid at first, and they all moved around the center of the exhibition area, not near the fence.
However, seeing more tourists will get used to it.
Lily saw that Xiao Xuan didn't react, and she curled her lips: "Cut, it's boring."
Lin Hao looked at Xiao Xuan and said with a smile: "I didn't see it just now. I thought it was a black stone."
Watching animals such as monkeys and red pandas play and play, climbing up and down the tree is very interesting, but watching turtles crawling slowly, leisurely sunbathing is also good, there is a feeling of tranquility, soothing, and peace.
Very decompressed!
Originally, I encountered a lot of troubles during the internship recently. I typed the code to change the bug, and the change was going to explode.
Seeing such a peaceful tortoise, I couldn't help but relax.
It's just a little trouble, what's so troublesome!
Dawu touched his chin and said, "Hey, I remember there are two here. Where is the other one?"
"Is it in the water?"
Lin Hao saw an oval black object in the middle of the pool illuminated by the sun, motionless like a steady rock.
Dawu took a closer look: "It should be! Oh, I saw its head."
Lin Hao is a little envious!
This tortoise is lying in the water, as if soaking in a hot spring, so enjoy it.
After admiring the black-shoe tortoise for a while, several people moved on again.
If you walk far ahead, you can see a building that is not square, but the ceiling is shallowly curved.
If you use a drone to look down from the air, the shape of the building looks like a big turtle lying on the ground.
