290.The Lion Chase (4/5)
Knowing that the research team was related to the World Animal Protection Society, Yang Shubao definitely allowed them to track the lions for research.
The World Animal Protection Society is a powerful organization headquartered in London, active in more than 50 countries around the world, and many business and political predators in various countries have some relationship with them.
Internationally, the association has a comprehensive consultative status with the United Nations, and Yang Shubao's goal is to develop the reserve to the point where it is recognized by the World Animal Protection Association, and the reason why this needs to be recognized is because many of its members and related organizations are wealthy chaebols in Europe and the United States, and they are generous and make a lot of money to the reserves every year.
Speaking of which, the background of this scientific research group is much stronger than that of Nordic tourists, and they have more energy, which is more valuable to Lao Yang, so he has to treat people well.
His mind flashed, and after he reacted, he waved his hand and made an inviting gesture: "Of course, my sanctuary is set up to protect animals, and in fact we do the same thing, so how could I refuse your request?"
Doris breathed a sigh of relief, and she smiled: "Thank you very much, we won't give you any trouble, mainly to observe the activities of the lions and study some of their habits." ”
Yang Shubao asked: "But how can you solve the problem of accommodation? To tell you the truth, everyone, my reserve has not been established for a long time, and there are not enough rooms to entertain you. ”
Pickerson waved his hand casually and said, "That's fine, sir, we can stay in the town for the time being, in fact we won't stay in one place for long, because the lions migrate every once in a while, and we have to follow their migration path." ”
Yang Shubao smiled and didn't speak, he estimated that the lions were going to settle down this time.
The big off-road vehicle drove into the reserve, and after washing their faces, the four people immediately brought their tools to observe the lions.
Doris was a little surprised when she saw the vast garden, especially the large silver leaf chrysanthemum that greatly attracted her.
She ran over like a little girl, squatted down and held a chrysanthemum to the tip of her nose and sniffed it, exclaiming: "Oh my God, I feel like I'm back in my hometown, this is a land of ice and snow, right?"
The others who were ready to leave did not leave, they stood in the silver leaf chrysanthemum garden and closed their eyes in reverie, their thoughts flying across the equator all the way north across the Tropic of Cancer to northern Europe, where the snow was falling at this time.
A professor named Conan Alec walked cautiously in the middle of the garden, but he accidentally stepped on the foot of a honey badger, and the honey badger was so angry that he stood up and shook his hand and screamed at Alec.
Yang Shubao hurriedly went over to pick it up and take it away, and the honey badger struggled in his arms to show his sword to Alec.
Alec said apologetically, "Sorry, little one, I didn't see you. ”
If he makes a fierce expression and an attacking posture, the honey badger will run for his life.
However, although Alec is big and has no momentum, the honey badger turns into a fearless flat-headed brother and wants to scare him.
Lao Yang dragged the honey badger away, he found a mouse hole and stuffed its head into it: "Oh, go and eat, there must be a hairless little mouse in this hole, go eat three squeaks." ”
Brother Pingtou angrily turned back to look for Alec, but the flowers and plants grew luxuriantly blocking its view, and it searched around but found no one, and began to dig a mouse hole in anger.
Picklesson asked curiously, "Mr. Yang, do you still have a pet like a honey badger?"
Yang Shubao waved his hand and smiled: "No, they are not my pets, but I have been in contact with them for a long time and often feed them honey, so I have won their trust." ”
"Yes, honey badgers can't be pets, their wild nature can't be tamed," Alec said. ”
The four of them took some photos in the silver leaf chrysanthemum garden, both selfies and group photos, and they were very happy.
Simba ran out of the orchard, and he ran through the pine belt to the old reserve, ready to go to the lions to see what was going on.
Since the arrival of the male lion, it has had a lot of worries, and it is afraid that its mother will be bullied, so it runs over every once in a while.
The male lion now saw that he chose to turn a blind eye and did not dare to provoke him, because Simba would call the elephant as soon as he found that he had the intention of attacking, and this trick was used by thieves6.
Doris saw it from afar, and she quickly shouted, "Who is looking forward to the telescope? Give me the telescope, who is that lion?"
"Which lion?" asked Pickerson hurriedly.
Simba ran very fast, and the weeds of the grassland grew tall and abundant, and when he pulled away, his figure was hidden in the grass, almost invisible.
Doris didn't care to admire the silver leaf chrysanthemum anymore, she picked up the guy and said, "Hurry up, this shouldn't be, this shouldn't be, I may be wrong, but I'm definitely not dazzled......"
She chattered in confusion, and Yang Shubao, who listened, was even more confused: "What's the matter, Dr. Doris?"
Doris explained: "I saw a lion, but I didn't recognize it, I thought it had a lion's mane, but it shouldn't be, there should only be gold in the pack, because it's the only adult male." ”
Yang Shubao understood: "The gold you are talking about is the lion king of the lion group, right?"
"Yes, we named it Kim. Doris said.
Yang Shubao explained: "You read that right, it's not gold, it's Simba, a lion cub I rescued before, when he and a wounded lioness were left in the reserve, I provided food for the lioness to help her recover, and then they stayed here." ”
"A wounded lioness and a young male lion?" Pickerson asked subconsciously.
"Yes. ”
Hearing his sure answer, the four of them looked at each other: "No, right?" "Is it so coincidental?" "That would be unbelievable. "Don't say it, hurry up and see, hurry up and see. ”
Lao Yang, who listened to their discussion, was confused, what is this?
With more than a kilometer to go from the garden to the creek, they rushed through waist-high grasslands and then began to observe the lions from a distance of several tens of meters.
Simba was about this distance, but it was hidden in the grass, and everyone didn't notice it at first, but when they stood still, Simba emerged from the grass, and then the research team realized that the two sides were only five or six meters apart!
Simba came out and observed them, tilting its head to the left and right, as if thinking about something.
The two looked at each other, and Pickerson whispered, "It's Rayla's son, isn't it? It's Rayla's son?"
"Surely, I saw Rayla, oh my God! I'm going crazy, it's incredible! That's Rayla, we're meeting Rayla again!" Doris pointed to the lions dozing in the shade of the trees by the river, almost crying.
Yang Shubao understood, and he said, "The Rayla you are talking about is the first lioness I have ever met, and she was seriously injured in her shoulder blade at that time......
"Yes it is, that's it, God! God willingly it survived!" Doris became more and more excited, and the corners of her eyes moistened.
