I have a wildlife zoo

"Fatty Wu0514" tipped a rocket!

"Protective Dark Lamp" tipped a plane!

Seeing the environment of the elephant activity space, together with various interesting and useful enrichments, the netizens were all happy for the elephants here and started a torrent of tips on the screen.

Fang Ye stayed with the elephants for a while longer and played with them.

He said with a smile, "It’s about time, let’s end the stream here, everyone 88~"

Today’s livestream had been quite long, and the netizens were thoroughly satisfied. Discover stories with Freewebnovel

"Okay, thanks for your hard work, Zoo Director!"

"Goodbye, Zoo Director!"

...

The system construction team worked very quickly.

Meerkats, cinereous vultures, Pallas’s cats, these animals were introduced into the zoo and went through a period of quarantine.

Once the quarantine was over, they would be ready for exhibit.

The cinereous vulture cage was indeed rather makeshift, but after all, there were few green leaf coins, so it had to make do. When there were more green leaf coins, they could build a slightly larger one and start setting up the framework for the plateau exhibition area.

In the meantime, they had also introduced some swans and mallards to enrich Waterfowl Lake.

The two Pallas’s cats from Xining Zoo, the male named Sun Dasheng and the female named Sun Yuanxiao because she was found by a warm-hearted citizen on the Lantern Festival.

Fang Ye was extremely fond of the Pallas’s cats!

In the last few days, he went to visit them whenever he had the chance.

When Fang Ye arrived, Sun Yuanxiao was lying in the woven grass nest on the perch in the back shed.

The Pallas’s cats from Xining Zoo all loved this thing, perhaps because the grass nest gave them a sense of security.

Their bodies hidden inside, not too big or too small, just right; they could only reveal their eyes and peer out at the world.

Linhai Zoo had also purchased several, placing them around to make the cats’ rest more comfortable.

Pallas’s cats always pout their mouths, and with their wide and flat heads, they look very serious, even while resting.

At that moment, Sun Dasheng was sitting on the ground, and when he spotted someone coming, he instantly became vigilant and squinted his eyes.

He stretched out a front paw!

The tip of the tail coiled around the body flicked quickly and slightly a couple of times.

He opened and closed his mouth, closing it as soon as it opened, as if he was showing off his threatening gesture to Fang Ye.

He lifted his head, sitting upright!

Every movement was incredibly swift.

But after completing one action, there would be a lag before the next action.

Many people who play online games might have experienced this: suddenly, the network is bad, the latency becomes very high, you click the mouse several times, but the screen doesn’t change.

After the latency ends, the character operated by the player drifts a distance in an instant.

If this happens during battle, by the time the lag recovers, one might have already faced a game over.

The way Pallas’s cats walk, sit, and lie down is a bit like network lag.

They give the impression that they have moved, yet haven’t!

Instead of saying they are as still as maidens and as fleet as escaping rabbits, it’s more like they are high-ping warriors.

When hunting in the wild, Pallas’s cats can use this "frame-skipping" method to disguise themselves as motionless rocks, steadily approaching their prey, and pounce on them once they are close enough.

Red foxes also have ways of pretending to be wooden to catch prey, but Pallas’s cats have integrated this behavior into their genes.

It’s very amusing, and there’s even a sense of artistry!

Fang Ye watched Sun Dasheng intently, finding the Pallas’s cats to be an adorable and somewhat silly species.

Just as he was about to feed it a couple of pieces of meat to get a bit closer to it, his phone suddenly rang.

It was Li, the keeper from the lion exhibit!

Li’s voice was a bit urgent, "Director, there’s been an incident at the lion exhibit!"

Fang Ye was startled and a bit nervous, "What’s wrong?"

He no longer cared about feeding the Pallas’s cat, and returned the meat to the animal keeper.

He thought of some distressing things!

The little lion cubs usually liked to find the big lions to play with.

For the little lions, it was playtime, but for the male lion, it felt more like harassment.

Qiqi was rather irritable in nature, and Fang Ye worried it might have gotten annoyed by the harassment and suddenly lashed out, hitting a cub with a heavy blow or biting it.

Or was it Yueyue who got startled by the tourists shouting outside and reacted violently, ending up fatally biting a cub?

But at two or three months old, the likelihood of infanticide by the lioness was fairly low, and Yueyue had grown much more maternal lately.

As he was pondering, he heard Li say, "There’s a cub stuck in the bushes in the enclosure! It can’t get out now.

We’re preparing to go rescue it, but even when we blow the whistle to call the lions back, the big lions might see the cub in trouble. They’re quite anxious and restless, and they don’t want to come back!"

Fang Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead, "You gave me a scare, but as long as it’s nothing serious for now, it’s all right!"

If the big lions returned, the animal keeper would easily be able to carry the cub out.

However, the lions didn’t understand that staying in the enclosure prevented the keepers from rescuing the cub and that returning to their pen would actually be more helpful.

They were acting on instinct alone, unwilling to leave because they were upset by the miserable cries of the trapped cub.

Li hesitated, "Director, should we get the vet ready with an anesthetic, or...?"

Anesthetic darts were inconvenient to use at a distance in the enclosure.

Even if they did hit, the lions would take time to succumb to the anesthesia.

By the time they managed to anesthetize all the adult lions after such a commotion, the little lion could be in greater danger.

But in the zoo, there was the Archdruid, the director himself!

Li had tried calling the lions back to their pen without success, so he thought to call for Fang Ye right away, but now hesitated again.

With so many agitated lions prowling around, it felt very dangerous for the director to go in!

He felt frustrated inside, realizing that the behavior training hadn’t been adequate. If an emergency arose, they were clueless. How good it would be if they all returned at the sound of the whistle now.

Fang Ye had no fear: "Hold on, I’ll come over now!"

...

The lion exhibit’s activity yard!

A bush had branched out at the base, spreading out dense branches!

The gap was neither too wide nor too narrow, just enough to trap a little lion cub.

Didi was stuck at the waist between the branches, back feet pushing against the ground, straining to turn its upper body, paws pressing down trying to bite through the tree trunk, to break free.

But the cub’s strength was simply not up to the task.

"Ah-ao! Ah-ao!"

It kept crying out loudly, desperately, its voice growing hoarse, sending out a heart-wrenching feeling.

Looking outside, it seemed to be saying, "Daddy save me! Mommy save me!"

Yueyue was beside the bush, nervously watching Didi!

But she didn’t know what to do, could only open her mouth slightly, pacing anxiously back and forth.

At this moment, Li was maintaining order where the visitors watched, meanwhile reporting the situation in the enclosure through a walkie-talkie; Xin was in the pen, blowing the whistle "toot-toot-toot"!

He was peering through the keeper’s peephole to the outside, placing meat at the entrance to the corridor.

After a while, Kaka came sniffing around for the scent!

Xin was excited, "Kaka, come eat the meat!"

He held the meat outside the corridor, trying to lure it inside the pen.

But as soon as Kaka entered the pen and Xin gave it a piece of meat, before he had the chance to close the gate, Kaka suddenly decided the meat wasn’t enticing anymore, thinking the cub was more important, and ran back out again.

Usually, two keepers operated together!

Caught off guard by the accident, today there was only him, and he was a bit overwhelmed.
