Chapter 456: Chapter 456: Pick up the elephant
Ran Qingqing said: "Ring-tailed lemurs are especially fun! When feeding them, several of them jumped on people."
Yang Xiaochao said, "It's also fun to take an alpaca for a walk. The alpaca I chose is called Aotian, a very temperamental alpaca. On the way, it is still on the bar with the peacock. Spray the peacock."
When everyone thinks about this scene, it is indeed quite interesting.
Shi Xi curiously asked: "Have you not been slobbered by the alpaca?"
"It almost got sprayed! I used a brush to brush it for a long time to get closer." Yang Xiaochao asked back, "What about you? How did it feel to slap a snake? Isn't it exciting?"
"It's quite different from what I imagined! I feel some snakes are quite cute."
Yang Xiaochao's eyes widened: "Really? Aren't you scared before you go?"
...
After the show was filmed, everyone returned happily.
It is estimated that it will be a week later when the editing is finished.
Compared with the show, Fang Ye has two things more concerned recently.
One is the public interest litigation of Green Peacock, which will be held on the day of the month, and the other is the transportation of elephants.
Unlike other animals, such as ring-tailed lemurs and macaques, which can be delivered in batches, they are delivered one by one from different places.
The first elephant to be delivered, an old female Asian elephant named "Ping Ping".
Speaking of the mediocre life experience, it is also quite miserable. The Asian elephant family it belongs to used to live freely in the forest on the border between China and Myanmar, but was targeted by poachers and planned to sell it to the domestic zoo.
In order to control this group of untamed elephants, these poachers even put drugs on bananas and fed them, and the drug-addicted elephants had to obey the poachers' mercy.
Fortunately, the group of elephants was rescued by the Yunnan police and was fostered at a wildlife rescue center in Hainan for rehabilitation. Two years later, they successfully detoxified.
The name Pingping also means that I hope it will be safe and sound.
Fang Ye asked about the elephant before, and when he contacted to buy it, he heard that the rescue center was looking for a home for Ping Ping, so he bought the elephant.
Why can't they be released? After a long period of domestication, elephants have been in close contact with humans, and they have already understood human living habits. Wild animals generally keep their distance from humans, and those who have been in contact with humans for too long are difficult to release.
Like the animals rescued by the rescue center, the keepers seldom come into contact with the animals, and even carry out intimidation training for some animals that are not afraid of people.
The other one is released into the wild, and there is no elephant herd to receive it, and it is impossible to live in the wild.
For the elephant, Fang Ye also took the zookeeper to fly to Haikou to pick up and drop off the elephant.
...
Speaking of Hainan, most people's first impression is that the blue sky is as clear as washed, the large white clouds, the splashing sea waves, the coconuts and palm trees with huge broad leaves, and the sweet and delicious jackfruit!
But for the other side, the most intuitive first impression of getting off the plane is the hot sunshine.
Although it is still more than March and not April, the temperature in Haikou is already very high, and it is estimated to be fast.
Even the morning sun is very hot, and when it is exposed to people, it starts to sweat outside after a while.
The breeder Xiao Qing couldn't help narrowing his eyes, blocking the sunlight with his hands and saying, "It's so good!"
Fang Ye smiled and handed him a straw hat, and put on one himself: "The weather here is indeed much hotter than Linhai."
The straw hat was carefully prepared by Blue Carp, and he put some sunscreen on his face and arms before leaving.
After leaving the airport, I called the staff of the rescue center, and soon the staff came over.
With a polite greeting, I got in the minivan that picked them up and walked along the wide road, enjoying the coastal scenery along the way.
When I came to the rescue center in the suburbs, I met Lao Yang, the person in charge.
Lao Yang looked at the two of them. It was obvious that Xiao Qing was looking older, so he stretched out his hand and said enthusiastically, "You are the principal of Fang! You are really young!"
Xiao Qing said embarrassedly: "I am not, this is our principal!"
Fang Ye smiled and shook hands with Lao Yang: "Hello, hello!"
While greeting, came to a very open field.
The hot sun was shining on the reddish-brown land, and five or six elephants strolled slowly and happily in the field. The back was surrounded by a circle of thick iron railings about a meter as high as the elephant, and the front was a water ditch. The cement wall looks very muddy.
This red soil is developed in tropical and subtropical rain forests, monsoon forests or evergreen broad-leaved forest vegetation. It is rich in iron and aluminum oxides, so it is red.
Elephants usually splash soil on their bodies and roll in the mud pits of red clay, so their bodies also show a dark red color. Under the golden sunlight, the red is filled with yellow, and there is a color texture of old and old photos.
Xiao Qing looked at the elephant here and couldn't help sighing: "I remember seeing it when I was a kid!"
Fang Ye smiled clearly: "Ahhh~ahhh~ Sheriff Black Cat!"
It is also a very classic cartoon!
The monkey-eating eagle grabbed the monkey and stuffed it in his mouth, and ate it in one bite. There was also an episode of the mantis eating the groom, which may be a shadow of many people's childhood when they were young.
But it seems quite interesting now, and there is a lot of popular science knowledge in it.
In the third episode of "The Thief Who Eats Red Clay", elephants, hippos, and wild boars steal the red clay. When he was a child, Fang Ye still thought, how could animals eat the clay? It must be chocolate.
In fact, it does eat soil. There are a lot of trace elements in red soil, which can be supplemented with minerals.
An elephant approaching them came over, with a long nose spanning the top of the ditch, just long enough to rest on the concrete wall.
Open mouth seems to be greeting them, there are two white ivory more than 20 centimeters behind the nose.
Fang Ye smiled and beckoned: "Hello?"
Observing eye!
Many people have misunderstandings about elephant ivory, thinking that if there is no ivory, it is just being pulled out, or if the male has teeth, the female has no teeth.
In fact, for Asian elephants, not all elephants have exposed incisors. According to the observation and statistics of scientists, of male elephants cannot see ivory, and of female elephants can see ivory.
In a nutshell, it is impossible to judge male elephants by ivory.
Old Yang smiled and said, "This elephant is the one you want to pick up. It's asking for fruit from you."
Fang Ye asked, "Is there any fruit? I'll feed it one."
The staff at the side gave him an apple!
Fang Ye held it in his hand and placed it on the edge of his flat nose. The soft flesh of the flat nose flexibly clamped the apple, and the long nose brought the apple back and put it back in his mouth.
