Chương 561: Chapter 561: Underground nest in the groundhog house
The vulture ran upside down from the edge of the pool and looked up at the breeder eagerly!
Hope to get a piece of meat to eat.
The breeder put the meat on the branches of the tree before and put it on various places on the wooden pier. The one that can fly has been eaten clean, and the one that can't fly can only dry on the ground and watch it drool.
When the animal was full and flew to a high place to rest, the breeder was just convenient to do training alone.
This will have just been training for more than a week, and it is still in the stage of knowing the target stick and following the target stick.
The breeder put the target stick in front of the vulture's eyes, and at the same time pressed the clicker, fetched a piece of meat from the small bag on the waist as a reward, and handed it to the vulture to eat.
This was repeated several times, moving the target stick farther, and tapping on the ground.
The vulture suddenly didn't understand, tilted his head, and watched in place.
The breeder waited for a while to see that it didn't respond, and then handed the target stick back to the vulture's face, and fed it a piece of meat with a "click".
The tourists on the side looked at them and said, "Why are you so stupid?"
The breeder said: "Behaviour training, first of all, is to build trust with animals. Only by building trust can they be willing to cooperate. It requires patience.
It also depends on the animal's learning ability. The first step is to let the animal understand the meaning of the goal stick, which normally takes a month. "
After training for a long time, watching the vultures gradually became unwilling to cooperate, looking around like a distracted student in class, the breeder put away the tools.
Coming out of the cage, I explained to the tourists: "Although the vulture is called a vulture, it is not bald. If you look at it, it still has a lot of hair on its head. The young bird is relatively bald. The adult bird has a bald head. They are usually their relatives, the vultures. The birds of the Tibetan sky burial are the alpine vultures!
In addition to hovering high in the sky, vultures also like to stay on the bare rocks on the top of the mountain. Therefore, there is a nickname called a mountain eagle. Isn't it a domineering one? "
"It turns out that the mountain eagle is a vulture!?"
"I thought the mountain eagle was a fierce bird of prey."
The breeder smiled: "Don't look at the ugly vultures, they are actually scavengers in nature. If there are no scavengers like vultures, the continuous accumulation of animal carcasses will lead to the growth of bacteria and viruses, and it will also pollute water sources. So we Still have to take good care of the vultures, don't dislike them when they are ugly, let alone imprison them for your own selfish desires.
But speaking of it, the vulture grows like this, and it does not look good in the raptor, and generally no one is interested in keeping it as a pet. It is more likely that a good intention has done something bad, and a good person sees a vulture injured and takes it home to raise it for a while.
Maybe the injury has not been healed, the feelings should be cultivated first, and it is reluctant to leave. Vultures are very easy to rely on people!
Our first vulture was like this. It was raised for a while and was reluctant to fly away. It was sent to a bird of prey rescue center, and was later introduced to our zoo.
And not only are vultures illegal, they also have a heavy taste. They don't like fresh meat. They like to eat rotten meat with a little bit of flavour. After eating, they like to vomit. Spit it out again, think about the smell..."
Lily imagined this scene, her face wrinkled: "rua! It's disgusting to listen to!"
Lin Hao also complained: "Damn, there are still people raising vultures, this habit is strange enough!"
"They are all rescue birds of prey!"
A tourist asked curiously: "Why do vultures like to eat carrion?"
The breeder said: "It may be better to put it another way. Just like pandas eating bamboo, they may have discovered in the process of constantly searching for their own way of survival. Hey, hunting this rabbit and mouse will hide and run, and it may not be able to catch it if you consume physical energy. When they arrive, they have to compete with other hunters. The corpse is so good that it can't run, and others don't like to eat it, so I will eat it. Slowly evolve into this state more suitable for eating carrion.
What golden eagle hunting falcon, it is a first-class killer, flying fast, flying from a high place in the sky is a momentary thing, the nine-yin white bone claws and sharp beak are extremely sharp, making the prey scared.
None of these vultures.
Among the birds of prey, the flying ability of the vultures is relatively weak, and they have to jump or run up before taking off. It is more adept at gliding. It can fly in the air for a long time with the help of updrafts, wandering leisurely over the high mountain wasteland, rarely agitating its wings, saving energy, and flying over to prey when it finds a corpse on the ground.
Do you see the long fluffy feathers at the base of its neck? Like our napkins, it can prevent the feathers from getting dirty when eating. Strong stomach acid and immune system can help them eliminate bacteria in bones and carrion without worrying about getting sick.
And the beak of a vulture, does it look like a crab's claw? Not that sharp, and the hooks are relatively small, making them more suitable for digging out corpses.
Everyone can take a look at this sign. "
The breeder pointed to it, and there was a fun sign next to it with cartoon patterns of various birds and contrasting their beaks.
There was a flamingo's beak on it. Lin Hao and the others had just come over from the Flamingo Lake, and after listening to Fang Ye's explanation and observation, they were very familiar with the flamingo's beak.
The parrot's beak grows like a walnut crusher, which is easy to bite into the tough husk and is strong and powerful.
The red-crowned crane's beak is long and slender, which is to find fish in the shallow wetlands, and it looks like a chopstick.
The beak of a sparrow is like a small tweezers, used to pecking grass seeds, and the beak of a hummingbird is like a straw, which can **** nectar in flight.
...
After visiting the vulture hall, came to the marmot hall.
In the marmot house, there are grass and stones, and the ground is half a meter of soil, which provides opportunities for the marmots to dig.
The background is uneven rock walls, like towering snow-capped mountains, it looks good.
Seven or eight marmots are standing near the entrance of the cave, some are digging the soil, and some are on guard.
A marmot with its big fangs exposed, like a wooden stake, stuck in place blankly.
Some tourists squatted down enthusiastically, stared at the marmot and shouted: "Ah!!!"
The marmot looked at the tourists outside, with a puzzled look in his eyes as if to say, this person is afraid that there is something wrong with it!
My companion came to play before and said with a smile: "People don't call it that way!"
Next to the glass curtain wall, there was a sign that looked like a marmot shouting with its mouth wide open. It said: "Want to hear my cry?"
There is a button below, and when you tap it, it makes a squeaky scream of "twee, twee, twee, twee~".
The tourist was surprised: "Damn, is this the sound? How can it be like a bird."
There is also a special facility in the inner corner of the Marmot House.
Drilling into the ground from the outside tunnel, the head can come out from the inside.
It allows visitors to look like groundhogs burrowing into a cave, observe them up close through a glass cover, and experience for themselves what it is like to live in an underground nest.
Lily's childlike heart was still young, and suggested: "Let's go down and play!"
Dawu happily agreed: "Okay, okay!"
