Lily Chi Chi, applauded, and praised: "Yes, Da Wu! I didn't expect you to be quite brave!"
Dawu said triumphantly: "First, absolutely not arrogant; second, never miss any bad thing! Haha, this kind of brain damage will just be over."
Lin Hao shook his head slightly: "You're not too arrogant. This kind of thing should be stopped, but it's better to notify the breeder, in case someone gets anxious and wants to beat you."
Dawu grinned: "So many people around are watching, he dared to do it. Okay, I know that Lao Lin you care about me, I'll pay attention, and try to persuade me to be more euphemistic next time."
A tourist asked: "Keeper, why are you crocodiles motionless? Didn't you feed them? They were hungry?"
"The animals in our zoo are not hungry."
The breeder Ogawa explained: "Everyone is a little disappointed to see the crocodile motionless? In fact, the crocodile's silent and motionless behavior is the magic weapon for their survival.
You see them lying motionless on the shore, in fact, when they are on the shore, they are basking in the sun to promote the body's metabolism.
The heat generated by reptiles' own metabolism is not enough to maintain body temperature, so they must obtain heat through the external environment.
You will only eat when your body temperature is sufficient, otherwise you will refuse to eat. Even if you barely eat something, the food will rot in the stomach and won't be digested. After eating, you will also bask in the sun and absorb calories to help digest food.
The slate on our shore is actually a heating plate underneath, which acts as an auxiliary heating when the sun is not enough! "
"Oh~"
The tourists looked at the motionless crocodile on the shore, showing a daze.
Suddenly shouted excitedly: "Moved!"
The crocodile, which was originally motionless like a sculpture, suddenly began to move, with its limbs moving, and the tail swinging slightly. The huge body was like an armored car, crushing through the dense grass on the shore, and slowly drove into it. In the water.
Dawu looked at the crocodile entering the water, and tweeted: "Huh, it's a pity that the two people were beaten away. They didn't see the crocodile entering the water, otherwise they would say that the crocodile is a specimen."
Seeing the crocodile entering the water, splitting a wave of water and spreading to both sides, only showing her head to float quietly, Lily felt a little regretful: "Oh, why just move like this."
Ogawa said: "When the sun comes out in the early morning, the weak crocodile will crawl out of the water and get on the shore to regain its strength. When night comes, it will return to the water again, because the heat generated by the direct sun during the day is stored in the water. Time is longer than in the air."
When there is no need to move, the crocodiles will always remain motionless, which can help them save energy. When eating very little food, they can also save energy to grow their bodies, interact with other crocodiles and raise offspring without having to Keep hunting.
The crocodile will float motionlessly on the water surface when it is in the water, disguising itself as a piece of wood, or even hiding next to wood or other floating objects, leaving only its nose and eyes out of the water, waiting for hunting opportunities. "
The tourists stood by the guardrail, looking curiously at the crocodile in the green swarthy water.
"No wonder it grows so big."
"It does look like a piece of wood!"
Lin Hao remembered at this moment that Xiaochuan had just walked up from the ground. Can you see the crocodile underwater?
Speaking to his companions, everyone immediately agreed and went back down the slope!
There are two lanes in the crocodile exhibition area. The sloping up walkway is one meter above the water. With a one-meter-high guardrail, this height is already very safe.
The other is sloping downwards, and the two walkways intersect, like an elongated "X".
There is no special light source in the underground corridor, because half a meter of the glass curtain wall is above the water, and the natural sunlight is enough for lighting.
Not only can you see the underwater activities of crocodiles, there are also popular science exhibition boards hanging on the walls, making full use of the corridor space.
Above a sign, the crocodile has big eyes open, and it seems that there are big tears streaming down.
Hey, tears of the crocodile!
Lin Hao looked at this sign curiously. He knew the story of crocodile tears when he was in elementary school. Legend has it that when a crocodile catches a prey and eats, it will pretend to shed tears to show sympathy.
"The crocodile's tears come from Western proverbs, which describe people who are kind on the surface and vicious on the inside. They are used to mock people who do bad things on the one hand and hypocritical on the other hand with false compassion.
The crocodile does shed tears, but it only relies on the action of "tears" to expel excess salt in the body and maintain the balance of osmotic pressure in the body. Sea turtles shed two rows of tears after they land, which is the same reason. "
Lily took her boyfriend and walked in front, smiling from ear to ear as she watched the crocodile underwater: "Haha, come and see!"
Lin Hao walked over and looked into the water, and suddenly laughed!
I saw a crocodile looking very mighty in the swarthy water, stepping on the uneven stone with its hind legs, walking slowly in the water.
It makes people feel cute?
Dawu held up his SLR "KaKa" to take a picture, and smiled very happily: "Such a fun scene, you have to take it and share it with your group of friends!"
In order to make the underwater scenery look less monotonous, Fang Ye also put some rocks under the water and made some submerged plants such as algae. The green algae swayed in the light yellow sunlight passing through the bottom, like A dreamlike underwater forest.
However, this large crocodile only walked slowly with its hind legs in the shallow water near the shore. As it walked forward, the water gradually deepened and turned into legs clinging to the body, swinging its thick tail, like a fish. The same swims.
When turning, stretch out the soles of your feet, just like turning a virtual steering wheel, and adjust the direction of swimming easily.
It seemed that there was a shadow in the direction of the underwater glass curtain wall, and suddenly the whole crocodile sank into the water.
Coming to the front of the glass curtain wall, the tail droops naturally in the water, and the huge body is suspended in the water, like a plump flying carpet!
The four fat paws stretched out are the four corners of the flying carpet.
Slowly drifting past the tourists with closed mouths forward, looking at the crowd with the eyes on the side of their heads blankly.
At such a close distance, you can even see the pale white on the surface of its eyes, the vertical pupils that look dangerous and cold!
Lin Hao felt a bit of scalp numb, like an electric shock, and he couldn't consciously hold his breath. I didn't know if it was nervous or excited!
Seeing such a mighty crocodile like an armored car swimming slowly in front of you, this experience is still very shocking!
The crocodile seemed to feel the existence of the glass curtain wall, and then wagged his tail, slowly swimming up.
Only then did the tourists react and "fuck up" one after another!
"Oh, my palms are sweaty with such a big crocodile swimming over my face!"
"You have to take a photo and send it to Moments!"
