บท 75: Chapter 641: The Dominant CEO Oriental White Stork
"Director, why don't you pair Jiao Jiao with Bing Gao before Bing Gao grows up?"
Fang Ye saw the comment and explained, "Bing Gao is a Bengal tiger, and Jiao Jiao is a Siberian tiger. We can't pair them together; it would pollute the gene pool, similar to crossbreeding blue and green peafowls.
Moreover, Jiao Jiao has been protecting Bing Gao as if he were her own cub, and Bing Gao has always seen Jiao Jiao as a mother. Even when Bing Gao grows up, there might not be any romantic attraction.
For us humans, incest is a severe ethical issue, which might not only be due to societal education but also an innate genetic defense mechanism.
Animals also avoid inbreeding, especially our close relatives, the primates.
For example, rhesus monkeys have a multi-male mating system, where females mate with multiple males, making it hard to determine the father.
Scientists showed rhesus monkeys photos of relatives and non-relatives and found they spent more time observing non-relatives, suggesting that unknown monkeys pose a greater threat. This indicates they can recognize kinship through appearance.
Female rhesus monkeys prefer non-relatives when choosing mates.
Many other animals also exhibit this behavior, usually avoiding choosing siblings from the same litter as mates unless there are no other options.
So, the saying 'childhood sweethearts can't beat a sudden romance' has scientific reasoning. Growing up together can indeed lead to a lack of sexual attraction in adulthood.
However, there are experiments where siblings raised separately from a young age found each other more attractive when reunited with unrelated individuals. The principles behind this are still unclear."
"So fascinating!"
"No wonder childhood sweethearts can't beat sudden romances. Cartoons didn't lie!"
"I thought animals didn't care! But it makes sense; without this defense mechanism, inbreeding would increase the risk of genetic disorders."
"Learned something new!"
"Hmm... suddenly remembered an anime..."
"Hehe, the one with three characters, right?"
Fang Ye pinched Jiao Jiao's cheeks and laughed, "So, have you thought about it? Finding a boyfriend, someone to lean on and be pampered by, and maybe even have cute tiger cubs."
Jiao Jiao gently bit his hand, her sharp teeth slightly pricking his skin.
Actually, there's no rush!
Jiao Jiao is only 4 years old, just entering adulthood, still very young.
If Jiao Jiao were to start dating, they would need to build another tiger enclosure to separate Bing Gao.
Just like in human relationships, it's hard for a man to accept a woman with a child from a previous relationship. If a male tiger came and saw Jiao Jiao with a cub, he might not be interested in dating and would think about how to kill Bing Gao instead.
Moreover, Bing Gao is still in the middle school phase, needing a family member's company. When he can't catch fish, he goes to Jiao Jiao for comfort. By the time he's two years old, he's like a college student and more independent. Wandashan No. 1 left to establish his territory at two years old.
Fang Ye pondered Jiao Jiao's marriage prospects as Bing Gao finished eating fish and finally ran over.
He rubbed his head against Fang Ye's neck, happily snorting.
Lan Li extended her hand and secretly petted Bing Gao. Seeing Bing Gao's blue eyes looking at her, she quickly withdrew her hand.
Now that he had grown so big, he was entirely different from his cute younger self, and she didn't dare pet him like before.
But Bing Gao still recognized Lan Li, vaguely remembering her singing to lull him to sleep and feeding him milk.
Bing Gao's friendliness ranking:
Fang Ye (Dad), Jiao Jiao (Mom)Lan Li (Mom)Regular keepers who hide food everywhere (Ha! As if that could stump me)The ugly bear demonCute kidsRegular adult bipedsVets in white coatsIdiots banging on the glass
So he affectionately rubbed against Lan Li, circling around her legs.
Lan Li was very touched!
...
After playing with Jiao Jiao and Bing Gao for a while, Fang Ye left the tiger enclosure and asked, "Guys, where should we go next?"
"Let's see the cranes! Last time I watched the director's live stream of the red-crowned cranes, I replayed 'A True Story' several times. But it's better to watch the cranes fly while listening to the song!"
"It was really moving."
"Haven't seen the lions in a while! I wonder if the cubs have experienced the power of slippers."
"Lions sleep all day; let's see the foxes! I love watching the director play with the foxes. He could bring them out to play and let them visit the pandas; that would be interesting."
"Elephants! I want to see elephants eating durians!"
Fang Ye thought for a moment, considering that the tiger enclosure was closer to the Crane Pavilion and Waterfowl Lake. "Let's visit the Crane Pavilion first, shall we?"
After all, last time, they only saw a few bird species in the Crane Pavilion during the live stream.
Arriving at the Crane Pavilion!
The stream's water flowed over rocks, making a "splashing" sound. A chorus of bird songs came from the forest, creating a natural and peaceful atmosphere.
Several visitors sat on the antique corridor benches, chatting. This place was indeed perfect for relaxing.
With lush green trees, clear flowing water, and melodious bird songs, the Crane Pavilion felt like a fairyland, making people reluctant to break the tranquility and beauty.
Several cranes stood by the stream, lost in thought!
Their feathers were pure white, with black tips on their wings and tails, long black beaks, and slender red legs.
They quietly bowed their heads, looking like meditating monks, with their necks elegantly curved into an S shape.
Fang Ye smiled, "Look, these are Oriental White Storks!"
The viewers marveled at the sight of the Oriental White Storks, "So beautiful!"
"Really ethereal, like a watercolor painting."
"The Oriental White Stork's color scheme seems more aloof!"
"Yeah, I feel the same! If the red-crowned crane is an elegant fairy, the Oriental White Stork is more like a dominant CEO."
Noticing they were being observed, an Oriental White Stork glanced at the camera, then leisurely walked forward, its steps as light as clouds.
It then stretched its neck, fanned out its tail feathers, took a few running steps, and slowly flew up, its long legs trailing behind its tail feathers.
Graceful and beautiful!
Fang Ye saw the comments and laughed, "Indeed, the Oriental White Stork is a bit like a dominant CEO! Very proud in nature.
They usually fall in love freely. If we try to matchmake them in the zoo, putting two together, they might fight if they don't like each other. They'd rather stay single than settle for less in love."
