Everyone looked out of the attic window at the same time, and Lao Xue was lying on the windowsill shamefully selling cuteness.

"Brady, what did you just say?" asked Tex again.

Brady was surprised and shook his wrist, "Why, don't you know it's a lynx, or you've never been to the zoo?"

"Do you see clearly?"

Just yesterday, Emperor Wu also discussed its breed with Uncle Frank, thinking that Lao Xue was an abandoned wild cat, but he didn't expect that the person in the same room with him was actually a medium-sized beast, and it was really fateful to live to this day.

"Maybe I drank too much. ”

Brady muttered and rubbed his eyes with a towel, put his hands in front of him in the shape of a telescope, and squinted his right eye to look at the high window, "That's right, unless my eyes deceive my mind." ”

"There are no lynx in Australia. Frank said that his words were echoed by everyone.

Emperor Wu went upstairs and hugged Lao Xue, Lao Xue's body was very strong, his limbs were thick and long, and his body was dark or light dotted with dark stripes.

"Look here. Brady pointed to its tail, "Cats have much longer tails, while lynx tails are extremely short and obtuse. ”

Emperor Wu looked at it, it was indeed the case, and everyone knew that Lao Xue's tail was extremely short, not even 1/4 of his head.

The tail was short, and Emperor Wu always thought it was an English bobtail or something, and never thought of it as a lynx.

This animal lives in the forest, and it is rarely seen in ordinary life, and when Emperor Wu was a child, he heard the old man talk about an animal called "wild lynx", which may be it.

Brady picked up Schrödinger, gently touched its head, and suddenly burst out laughing, "Little one, this puff has betrayed you." ”

He said to the group, "The biggest difference between the lynx and the cat is that the lynx has a tuft of hair on its ears, which makes it look more powerful, and there are long drooping hairs on their cheeks. ”

"Brady, how do you know so much about animals? Turks asked, with his hands on his chest, puzzled.

Brady laughed, "Brother, have you forgotten that I took animal reproduction in college?"

Turks tilted his head and thought for a moment, as if that was indeed the case.

"When I was at university, I really wanted to go to Tasmania to study Tasmanian devils, they are not very good at raising offspring, and I really wanted to do them a favor. ”

Brady squatted on the ground and stroked Lao Xue, looking like an expert in the animal kingdom.

"Tasmanian devil, is it the kind of little guy who suffers from facial tumors?" Emperor Wu had heard on the news station that there was a tumor disease circulating in the Tasmanian devil world, and the mortality rate of the infected group reached 100% within 12-18 months!

After the discovery of the disease in 1996, the number of wild Tasmanian devils fell by almost half, meaning that one out of every two Tasmanian devils died from it.

"You don't want to see a tumored Tasmanian devil, it's horrible, it's like it's rotting. Brady said.

"Guess why Tasmanian devils have this stubborn disease?"

Emperor Wu said: "If I remember correctly, it is a reason to marry a close human relative and give birth to a sick child." ”

"Yes, there must be a cause for any suffering, and the lack of genetic diversity due to inbreeding of Tasmanian devils exacerbates the spread of tumors in the population. Brady said the head.

"Well, let's hope God bless them, the question for us at the moment is, why is this lynx in Australia. Frank said he had always been a cautious man.

Brady spread his hands, "Maybe someone thought it was funny and smuggled in." ”

Emperor Wu realized that this was not a trivial problem, and that the cute little lynx was a major problem for the Australian government, which was plagued by invasive species.

Needless to say, if there are two lynx species on the Australian continent, then in a few years, the lynx couple will breed a lynx army, which is a serious blow to Australian marsupials.

More importantly, the lynx is a medium-sized cat, and with its unique dexterity and high intelligence, it may replace the Australian dingo to dominate the Australian continent.

Emperor Wu picked up Lao Xue and let it face the sun, and the towering ear fluff really made it majestic.

The aggression of these days is very easy to explain, when I was just carried home by Emperor Wu, it was still small, no different from a cat, and when I grew older, it revealed the unique wildness of the lynx.

Sooner or later, the ugly duckling will turn into a white swan.

"You're the apex predator on this continent, get it, little one. ”

The lynx swung its claws and rubbed vigorously against Emperor Wu, making a whining sound.

Compared to a normal kitten, this claw is sharper, which makes it more aggressive when facing wild animals.

"Boss, what are you going to do?

"Do you want me to hand you over to the zoo?" Emperor Wu muttered to himself at the lynx old Xue.

Schrödinger seemed to understand human nature, his eyes became sharp, and he constantly waved his front paws in an attacking shape.

Emperor Wu didn't think about it and said: "Give it to them, don't make trouble, then it will only be locked up in the zoo and encircled to collect tickets, how can it live freely in the ranch!"

Frank spoke, "It's a hassle to keep it on the ranch in case someone finds out. ”

"I've never been afraid of trouble, and if you want to be fined, they'll pay double the fine, but this lynx must stay on my ranch. ”

Brady applauded, "Courageous rancher, to be honest, I'm also very annoyed by the government's tricks, the rabbits back then were not brought in by Australian citizens." ”

Frank laughed, "You are very similar to Hans, the old rancher, and he has this temper. ”

"I've got the final say on my territory, and I'm going to TMD. ”

After speaking, Emperor Wu raised his wine glass to celebrate the rediscovery of Lao Xue's true identity.

In the evening, Emperor Wu asked the three Oscar brothers to play in the bathtub, and he took Schrödinger for a walk in the yard.

After knowing that it was a lynx, I felt that its every move was like a lynx, and it was much more majestic than a cat when it walked.

The lynx always walks with its head flat up, unlike Oscar's nose on the ground.

It has a strong ability to jump and climb, and it can climb the big eucalyptus koala's house to worship the New Year in just two seconds, and after two seconds, it can go to the white father's nest to peep at the white lady laying eggs.

After Brady announced that it was a lynx, Emperor Wu had been thinking, a brown bear was also found in the woods next to Huaxi Lake, and then Sophia found Roger II the kangaroo, kangaroos are endemic to Australia It is understandable that brown bears and lynx do not belong to Australia, how can they appear in the woods of the ranch at the same time?

Emperor Wu couldn't figure it out, and asked Frank, who had worked here for many years, but he didn't understand, and he said that Mr. Hans had never found any animals outside of Australia in the woods when he ran the ranch.

Then there is only one possibility, someone smuggled them into Australia from abroad, and due to some mistake or emergency, they were there.

Wu Di called Ms. Caitlin and implicitly asked Australia about the details of the adoption of foreign animals. Ms. Caitlin said that according to the rules, it is strictly forbidden for private individuals to keep animals from abroad, but there are special circumstances, and that is to open private zoos.

She said that in China, the lynx is a national second-class protected animal, which is forbidden for anyone to keep and has strict requirements for transportation and breeding, and because Australia does not have this animal, there is no protection talk.

Private Zoo? Emperor Wu never thought of opening a private zoo, and he had the impression that zoos were all kings of the mountains and hundreds of animal species, and the management expenses alone would cost tens of thousands of dollars every day.

Ms Caitlin told him that this was the only way to go, otherwise he would face multiple charges in Australia. If Emperor Wu really wants to keep non-Australian animals, then he can sign up for a small private mini-zoo, and Caitlin uses the words small, mini, little, in short, very, very small.

Emperor Wu said that he would consider building a zoo for two animals in the future, which is really too much money to spend.

After a while, Ms. Caitlyn called back, her husband was a zoologist, and said that it was okay to adopt it, but that kind of was more troublesome and needed to go through strict scrutiny, but Emperor Wu had a ranch, so it should be easier.

Leave that alone for now, and we'll talk about it when we get things sorted out.

Since Lao Xue is a lynx, then there will be an extra helper for hunting in the future, it is a master of dealing with rabbits, no rabbit can escape the tracking of the lynx, think about it this way, Emperor Wu adopted it, and also made a great contribution to reducing the rabbit problem in Australia.

Thinking of this, he ....... on his chest There is no red scarf at all.
