【0796】Shake hands with a lion?

What embarrassed Baratu's men was that the three poachers suspected of having set up a wire noose were now in a somewhat special position, in the area of the rhinoceros' daily activities, and there were two groups of tourists at the scene, which was not easy to catch and intercept.

To make sure nothing went wrong, Baratu's men suggested contacting the military for assistance.

After Balatu gave instructions, he immediately ended the call and contacted the military, but he was on the phone. Switched to a communicator to contact the relevant person, but no one answered.

Hao Jun had just finished checking the lion's basic physical signs and thinking that it would not have serious internal injuries, and the lion had already opened its eyes, and it seemed that the effect of the anesthetic needle was weaker.

Cardolite and another staff member untied the lion, lifted it to the bushes, and returned to the car.

The lion slowly stood up, walked a few meters in three steps, and realized that the wound was different, and subconsciously looked back. In order to see more clearly, it also lifted its right hind leg a few times and shook it a few times.

Then, it turned its head to this side, stared at Hao Jun, lowered its head, and then slowly tilted upward, stretched its neck, and let out a long low roar.

Hao Jun's mind popped up David's related memories, and he couldn't help laughing: "Is it grateful to us?"

Balatu looked at Hao Jun and smiled, "No, it's thanking you! The lion is very smart and has a good memory, and can remember the activity area and composition of each group of herbivores in its territory, and can even distinguish the adult male lion who was driven out of the lion group five years ago just by the smell in his memory! It knows that several of us are just regular staff members of this reserve, and only you, a stranger it has not seen much, are the doctors who treat it. But I didn't expect to realize this when the effect of the anesthetic needle had not completely dissipated. ”

Cardolite also looked at Hao Jun and said half-jokingly, "Mr. David, I think you can go over and shake hands with it." After all, it is also a mid-level leader in that group, and you can use it to build a good relationship with most of the lions, which will help you further study the wildlife, and maybe you can observe them up close at night. ”

Shake hands with the lion? Hao Jun couldn't help but feel a move in his heart!

Lions are only aggressive to prey and provocateurs during the day, and at night they will have a strong sense of territory, and any non-vulnerable species that enter the territory are considered extremely threatening, and the chance of being attacked is greatly increased.

Therefore, during the day, even if ordinary tourists approach the lion in an open-top car, the lion often turns a blind eye, and the active lion only looks strange through the car door, which is why poachers are easy to succeed during the day.

However, most poachers do not choose to act during the day, and it is too easy to expose their whereabouts. They either set up all sorts of traps, or took advantage of the cover of night to move again. However, hunting lions in the dark of night is the main reason why 2 to 300 poachers die in the mouths of lions every year! Lions can run at speeds of up to 80 kilometers, and in the grassland shrouded in night, as long as they are targeted by a group of lions that are full of combat effectiveness, let alone running away with one foot deep and one foot shallow, it is difficult to escape even if they are driving.

In David's memory, there was a tragic scene of the discovery of the remains of a poacher's body during the day. To be exact, it was just two remnants of a skull and pieces of clothing, as well as a shotgun and bullets......

Balatu hurriedly stopped Cardolite's suggestion and Hao Jun's infinite conjecture, "No, it's not completely awake now, it may not be able to control the strength of certain movements very well, sometimes it may just want to gently pat you to show friendship, but it may catch you bloody." ”

In David's memory, there was a similar situation, when he first stepped into this industry, he was almost asked for half his life by the platypus who had just woken up from his sleep!

Hao Jun quickly gave up the opportunity to increase his friendship with the lion and chose to wave.

The lion shook its head at Hao Jun as if it really understood, turned his head, and slowly left, his pace becoming more and more steady.

Balatu contacted the military again, but was still not contacted.

Balatu had determined that the lion would soon fully awaken from the effects of the narcotic needle, and that his combat power was increasing and that his life would not be in danger. It was decided to rush to the location of the poachers first, and notify the car that had just left to rush over as well, so as to increase the mobility of the encirclement and interception.

At present, this convertible can carry four people except for the driver, and after receiving everything in the trunk, the five of them can sit just right.

In order to ensure the safety of Hao Jun, a volunteer, Balatu sat him in the middle of the back seat, and he and another staff member supported him from left to right.

During the drive, Balatu contacted the military every few moments, but he didn't expect to get in touch with the military until he reached his destination.

It turned out that a high-ranking military official passing through the surrounding area had the idea of visiting the military garrison outside the reserve and offering condolences today, and the communications of the military garrison quickly became busy.

The military's communications have priority when accessing, and can also be understood as preemptive access or strong access, so when Balatu makes a call, the other side is almost always on the phone. The noise and excitement of the condolence performance made the call from the individual communicator with whom Baratu was in contact almost unnoticed.

After learning about the support that Baratu needed, the military replied that a squad was immediately dispatched to rush to help, but due to the distance, it took about half an hour to arrive. If Balatu thinks it is imminent, they can send helicopters.

Balatu had just communicated the latest situation on the phone with his men who had been there, but it was not imminent, and the helicopter was too loud when it arrived, complicating matters if the poachers realized that the military helicopter was targeting them and holding tourists hostage for their own protection.

In half an hour, there shouldn't be any moths, maybe the poachers will leave the area, or the tourists will leave, and things will be much easier.

Therefore, the Balatu reply does not require a helicopter.

Because of the presence of fierce beasts such as lions, and because of the presence of poachers, Balatu and other staff members carried guns with them, and they were not afraid of poachers when they encountered them head-on and had a numerical advantage.

In some areas, because there are no large, aggressive beasts of prey, and no mammals of great economic value that can be coveted by poachers, the staff does not wear firearms. But that doesn't mean there isn't danger, it's just that there are good reasons for not getting a gun: as long as you don't deliberately put yourself in danger, as long as you do it right, you can definitely escape!

There was once a staff member who had just joined the river and took pictures of the hippopotamus, and the hippopotamus a little far away from the shore mistakenly thought that he wanted to intercept him and return to the river, so he rushed over directly.

The staff member subconsciously did not dare to flee to the river covered with hippos, and ran towards the grove on the left. He had long forgotten the zigzag of his predecessors to run to the river, so that the hippopotamus, who was not sensitive to turns, could rush into the river and ignore him.

He never imagined that the hippopotamus looked so bulky and could run so fast!

The final ending was miserable, he was bitten into three pieces by the hippopotamus's big teeth "click, click"!
