After Bobo entered the mud pond, he raised his front foot and stepped back on the mound at the edge of the mud pond.
The tourist looked at Bobo's hoofs as if they were hanging in the air, swinging one after another, wondering: "What is this for? What about dancing? My ankle is twisted?"
Some people speculate: "Could it be the remaining stereotyped behavior?"
Fang Ye smiled and said, "No, you see, its feet are actually in contact with the ground, and they are stepping back on the soil.
Bobo may think that the mud puddle is not sticky enough and wants to add a little more soil.
After rains in the wild, or the mud pits naturally formed on the banks of the river, there may be more water and less mud, so that the mud bath cannot form a mud coat, and they need to do some processing by themselves.
Elephants know how to make mud pits, such as stepping on the river bank with their feet, poking with their teeth, turning the soil on the bank into loose soil, and stepping in the mud pit. "
"Oh~"
The tourists watched Bobo stepping back on the soil enthusiastically!
Bobo stepped on for a while, then slowly dumped his body, his huge body smashed into the mud pit, splashed a piece of muddy water, and poured it all over his body.
Then closed his eyes and lay in it leisurely, motionless like a hot spring.
It's just that the tail flicks occasionally behind him!
Bobo lay quietly, enjoying the infiltration of the skin caused by the thick muddy water. The sore joints felt a little more comfortable, not so uncomfortable.
The lively Pingping was constantly twisting in the mud, pedaling to and fro, like swimming, and kicked on the sturdy buttocks. The two elephants, one large and one small, formed a sharp contrast.
The tourists watched them soak and laughed endlessly!
On the other side, Meiling and Meilan were also walking in the exhibition hall.
Many fresh branches and bamboos were inserted into the sand everywhere in the venue, which looked like small forests or bushes.
When Meiling and Meilan were walking, they would unconsciously curl their noses when they saw a branch, and then pulled them over.
Occasionally, Meilan stopped, pulled the branch to her mouth, and started to eat.
Meiling has no interest in twigs. When Meilan is eating, she starts to play.
Like a huge armored tank, the huge body walked straight toward the small forest, trampling down these branches inserted in the sand relentlessly.
Use your nose to pick up the tree branch, or drag it on the ground to move forward, like a little girl dragging the rag doll roughly, shaking it around, venting her desire for destruction.
These branches, even if the elephants don't eat them, it's good to have fun with them, so that they can train their noses.
When they are looking for food in the wild, they destroy trees like this and tear them down, pulling branches around to eat.
Meiling had a good time, her head raised in excitement, she shook her nose, and made a loud elephant cry.
"Woo————!!!"
The tweet is rough and hoarse, full of power.
It was as loud as a huge train or ship whistling, and it sounded shocking.
Xiangming crossed the trees and water in the elephant hall, spreading far away, and the remnant sound curled up.
The tourists listened to Meiling's high sound of elephants. At this moment, there was a kind of lush forest in the wild. Through the dense leaves, they saw a group of elephants bathing in the lake, roaring up to the sky, and aroused the illusion of flying birds. .
I couldn't help getting up with goose bumps, and instantly quieted down!
Not only the noises of nearby tourists, but also the singing of birds, the sounds of other animals coming from a distance, seemed to be shocked for a while, quietly, as if the pause button was pressed.
After a while, the tourists were relieved.
Zhu Yu patted his chest with an exaggerated expression: "Fuck, it's called, it almost scared me out of a heart attack."
Wu Jiancong's eyes were shocked, and he nodded in agreement: "This is the first time I heard an elephant call!"
Fang Ye laughed and said: "Elephants have a very wide range of sounds, and can roar, shout, roar, scream loudly, horn-like sounds, infrasound waves, and so on.
They are highly social animals. They communicate with each other and derive a set of meaningful language, which can be used to warn, defend, express emotions, etc. through calls.
For example, when a group of elephants say that it is time to start, they will turn their heads in the direction they want to start, fan their ears, lift their front feet, and make a continuous low rumble.
When a baby elephant feels anxious or sad, the mother and other relatives will gather to comfort it, and caress the baby elephant's mouth and belly with its trunk. The baby elephant will also make a crying neighing and low rumbling sound to talk about it. Wronged. "
In fact, like wolves, their different voices also have various meanings of deterrence, submission, calling to gather and follow, but the language and behavior of elephants are more complicated, the roaring sound when playing, the cry of crying for help with family members when they are in the mud, and the crying of the mother elephant. The warning of the baby elephant hiding behind the bush, the celebration of the reunion of the little elephant, and so on.
Fang Ye didn't study this aspect in depth, but had some superficial understanding and knew the meaning of several typical elephant calls.
The tourists were amazed: "Elephants still have such a rich language?"
"It's up!"
"Why can't you hear them after watching it for a long time?"
Fang Ye explained: "Elephants usually communicate with infrasound waves Humans generally can't hear them, they can only observe their behavior, or they have to get close to hear their deep vibrations, making such a loud sound. The loud hum is a rare situation.
Meiling belongs to the other kind of elephants. She usually likes to shout loudly. In the elephant camp, she would yell angrily if she didn't see Meilan for too long.
But this time, watching Meiling drag the tree branch to have a good time, it was obviously a happy cry. "
Liu Wei they admired the elephant for a long time!
Elephants are in the venue, feeding, playing and frolicking, and they are always moving.
With the abundant enrichment projects and various entertainment facilities in the venue, not only the elephants have fun, but they also have something to do. Tourists also watch it with relish.
This elephant alone will not be boring to watch for three days and three nights.
Several people looked at the elephants in a circle and took a photo with the huge mammoth statue in Mammoth Square.
Then sit down on a nearby bench. Take a break.
Some children bought animal-shaped ice cream from a nearby small shop and ate it happily.
This kind of ice cream was also developed in Linhai Zoo recently. It has the image of elephants and tigers and is very popular with tourists.
When Lu Ye had a meeting, she was excited to suggest that there is animal sorbet, and we can also develop a cake, get a green iron-headed matcha cake, and what kind of yellow slug cake, the soft cream and cake just reflect their body Of softness.
Everyone looked at him with this expression: (??_?)
Are you serious?
Fang Ye vetoed it all at once, what kind of underworld thoughts this was all about.
Wu Jiancong looked at the children eating sorbet, a little greedy, and said: "I'm going to buy a sorbet, do you want to? I'll treat you."
The friends all cheered: "Brother Cong is magnificent!"
