"Wow! So many big cats."
Zou Linlin looked at the snow leopards in the surrounding cages with their heads sticking out and looking in this direction, and couldn't help but open her mouth.
Is this the Snow Leopard Conservation Center? Sure enough, there are a lot of snow leopards.
It’s simply a paradise for cat suckers.
No, there are too many big cats.
She could hardly breathe anymore.
"How is Linlin? Are you happy to see so many snow leopards?" Lu Xiaoyan smiled when she saw this, and reached out to touch the snow leopard that was close to the iron railing.
"Hmm." Zou Linlin nodded when she heard this and said, "Sister Xiaoyan, how many snow leopards are there in the conservation center? Why do I feel like there are hundreds of them."
There are many snow leopard cages on both sides of this road, and you still go down this road.
"A few hundred is an exaggeration. There are only more than 80 snow leopards in our conservation center now." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "If there are so many snow leopards, then our conservation center will be incredible."
"Then the other remaining cages are empty?" Zou Linlin asked curiously after hearing this.
Since there are only more than 80 snow leopards, how come there are so many cages?
"No, most of them have animals living there. It's just that they are not snow leopards." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "You will know if you come with me. I will take you to see an interesting little guy. He has a very bad temper. It was just delivered a few days ago.”
"Okay." Zou Linlin nodded after hearing this and followed Lu Xiaoyan as she left the snow leopards.
I saw a lot of animals appearing in front of me.
"Is this a vulture?" Zou Linlin looked at the big bird in the cage and was surprised. She didn't expect to see a vulture in the conservation center.
It's just that this vulture looks a bit miserable now, with its head covered in white gauze.
It looks like he is wearing a white hat, which makes him look funny and funny.
"Yes." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "This vulture lost a fight with its own kind and was rescued by us."
"Don't forget that he is quite honest now. The old murderer came just after he was rescued. If he didn't wear special protective gear, he wouldn't dare to get close to it."
"Really? So what's going on now?" Zou Linlin asked curiously as she looked at the vulture in the cage.
This was the first time she had seen a vulture. How was it different from an eagle?
"It's much better now, we can get closer." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "It's just that it's always screaming in the middle of the night, which is a bit scary."
"Ah? Why is this happening?" Zou Linlin asked in surprise.
Could it be that the protection center is not good? But didn’t the center save it?
Wouldn't it be easy for some injured animals to die in the wild if they were not rescued by humans?
"Maybe he was obsessed with losing the fight, or he didn't win the wife-in-law." Lu Xiaoyan said: "We can't say the specific reason. Anyway, it seems that the wounds on his head were injured by the same kind of people."
"Well, poor vulture."
Zou Linlin said pitifully after hearing this.
He heard the sound of "tapping" coming from the side, and he suddenly asked curiously: "Sister Xiaoyan, what kind of animal is being rescued in the cage next to it?"
"Why do you keep walking there?"
"Do you want to know?" Lu Xiaoyan asked.
"Yeah." Zou Linlin nodded after hearing this.
"You'll understand after you go over and take a look." Lu Xiaoyan smiled and led Zou Linlin to the cage next to her.
I saw a donkey walking back and forth in the cage.
"Donkey?" Zou Linlin said in surprise as she looked at this animal with long ears that were much smaller than a horse.
She never expected to see donkeys at the conservation center.
"This is not a donkey." Lu Xiaoyan on the side said with a smile: "This is a wild donkey. Although it looks the same as a donkey, its temper is much hotter than that of a donkey, and it is also a nationally protected animal."
"Really?" Zou Linlin stared at the donkey in front of her for a while and said, "But I feel that it is no different from a donkey."
"Of course we can't tell it, we need professionals to see it." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile.
"By the way, Sister Xiaoyan."
"Where is this donkey injured? How did it get sent to the rescue center?" Zou Linlin asked curiously. She saw the donkey in front of her jumping around happily, but she didn't see where it was injured?
"It was not injured. It got separated from a herd of wild donkeys as a child."
"So he was rescued and returned to our center."
Lu Xiaoyan explained.
"It's so pitiful. Then it still has a chance to be released into the wild?" Zou Linlin asked.
"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult." Lu Xiaoyan sighed after hearing this: "Ordinary herbivores do not have the same ability to survive as carnivores, especially herbivores that live in groups, let alone this kind of herbivores."
"Unless he can find a herd of wild donkeys to take him in, his best option is to stay in a conservation center."
"Wouldn't this make it very lonely?" Zou Linlin always felt like the wild donkey was crying when she looked at it.
"That's not true." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "It grew up with the snow leopards. Sometimes we let them come out to play together."
"No way? Snow leopards can play with wild donkeys?" Zou Linlin said in surprise.
Snow leopards are not carnivores, so does it really have nothing to do with playing with wild donkeys?
"Okay." Lu Xiaoyan nodded and said, "Snow leopards are quite afraid of it. It looks taller and has a bigger temper than snow leopards."
"The reason why we don't let him come out often is because we are afraid that he will hurt the snow leopards."
"So that's how it is." Zou Linlin suddenly realized.
I didn't expect that the wild donkey in front of me could actually have such abilities.
"Yes, Linlin. Don't think it's easy to deal with because it's a vegetarian."
"It's not easy to deal with either. The donkey's temper is not just talk." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "Let's go forward. There are other animals ahead."
"OK."
Zou Linlin nodded when she heard this, followed Lu Xiaoyan and saw a sheep hitting the iron railing as she walked forward.
"This..." Zou Linlin couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this scene. Why is there a sheep here in the protection center?
"This is the national second-level protected animal argali, also called bighorn sheep." Seeing Zou Linlin stunned, Lu Xiaoyan explained with a smile.
"It turns out to be a national second-level protected animal." Zou Linlin suddenly realized after hearing this.
She asked how could the protection center not care about a sheep? It turns out it’s also about protecting animals.
Wait a minute? argali?
Zou Linlin asked Lu Xiaoyan: "Sister Xiaoyan, if I remember correctly? Big cats should prey on argali."
"Is it really okay for the protection center to keep them together?"
"Of course it will have some impact." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "This is the reason why this argali keeps hitting the iron railings, but don't worry, he will be released soon."
"Really? Then it is much happier than the wild donkey." Zou Linlin said after hearing this.
"That's not necessarily true." Lu Xiaoyan sighed after hearing this: "Although the wild is free, it is very dangerous. Especially in recent years, the number of wild wolves has increased, and the chances of argali encountering wolves have increased a lot."
"Is this like this? The life of the argali sheep is so difficult."
After hearing this, Zou Linlin couldn't help but look at the argali in front of her with some worry. This might not be the last time she saw this argali.
"Yes, but things are not that bad."
"Where the argali live, wild wolves can't get up." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "So their main natural enemies are snow leopards. And there are only so many snow leopards, so it won't have a big impact on their population." Threatening."
"That's good." After hearing this, Zou Linlin couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, don't worry about it anymore, Linlin." Lu Xiaoyan smiled and said, "I'll take you to meet the protagonist this time. I guarantee you will like it."
"It's not easy to rescue this little guy, and it's even rarer in zoos."
"Really?" Zou Linlin heard this and asked curiously: "Sister Xiaoyan, what animal do you want to take me to see?"
"Have you ever heard of a rabbit?" Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "This is a very rare wild animal among animals. Only one family in the country can see it."
"Four seconds?" Zou Linlin was surprised when she heard this: "Sister Xiaoyan, your center is so amazing. You can actually hold it for four seconds."
Who doesn’t know about Si Si Si now? It is very popular on the Internet.
Of course, compared to her big cats, they are still much inferior.
"That's natural. Although our center has a small number of people, it doesn't mean we are weak." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile:
"The activity areas of this little guy and snow leopards are covered. So it is normal to be able to rescue these little guys sometimes."
"But these little guys have a bit of a bad temper, and are much harder to take care of than the snow leopards."
"This one is very temperamental. Brother Li has been coaxing it for several days. It is finally willing to eat today."
"Really? It's amazing that they can survive." Zou Linlin didn't know what to say when she heard this.
This four-second dog has such a bad temper, he can starve himself to death when he gets angry.
"Who says it's not?" Lu Xiaoyan said with a wry smile: "Otherwise, how could it be protecting animals?"
"It's just like a giant panda, but it's much easier to raise than a giant panda."
"Yeah." Zou Linlin nodded after hearing this, and met the protagonist this time.
A long-haired creature that somewhat resembles a house cat.
"It's so fat. Why does this dog look so plump for four seconds?"
Her first impression of the rabbit in this cage was that it was chubby, like a fat cat.
"This is how the rabbit cat species is." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "Actually, it is not that fat. Like the snow leopard, it looks a little bloated because of its large amount of hair."
"So that's what it looks like." Zou Linlin looked at the rabbit and said, "But it does look very ferocious. I have never seen any cat that is so ferocious."
"It not only looks fierce, but also has a bad temper." Looking at the rabbit whose hair had swollen and looked fatter, Lu Xiaoyan said to Zou Linlin: "Let's leave first, it's going to be angry again. He The injury hasn’t healed yet, don’t let him tear it open.”
"Okay." After hearing this, Zou Linlin nodded.
Following Lu Xiaoyan, I continued walking forward and found a fox blinking in the cage.
"It's so cute. Sister Lu Xiao, why do you have so many animals?"
It turned out that she thought that the Lingchuan Snow Leopard Rescue, Breeding and Conservation Center only rescued snow leopards. She did not expect that there were more wild animals here than in the zoo.
It really opened her eyes.
"This is nothing, we even have golden monkeys and pandas here." Lu Xiaoyan said with a smile: "Because the living areas of snow leopards and many protected animals are covered, so after the surrounding protected animals are rescued, It will be sent to us as soon as possible."
"In addition, we often have professors and students come to stay at our conservation center."
“That’s why our center has so few people but so much space.”
"Golden monkeys and pandas?" Zou Linlin was stunned when she heard this. She wanted to know what animals the Lingchuan Snow Leopard Rescue, Breeding and Conservation Center did not have?
"Yes." Lu Xiaoyan smiled and said, "How is it? This trip is not in vain, aren't you very happy?"
"Yeah." Zou Linlin couldn't help but nodded her head after hearing this.
