Hiss showed signs of loosening, which made Liu Heming's attitude towards the four of them much better, and after coming out of his son's room, he also gave them his own dark beer.
"These beers haven't been licensed to be sold in Australia, so don't report me if you've drunk them. Anyway, I asked you to drink it, and I didn't ask you for money. Liu Heming said with a smile.
"This beer is really great. After taking a sip, Heath said in praise.
"If you have the opportunity to visit my ranch in the future, there will be a lot of delicious food waiting for you to taste. Liu Heming said.
"In fact, in my pasture, a lot of animals eat vegetables in my greenhouse. It is a vegetable leaf that was selected at the time of sale, and it is not a defective product, but there is a wormhole on it. ”
"Mr. Dexter, you may not know that the koala is now an endangered animal in Australia, and we will be raising the endangered status of the koala in the near future. Hiss put down the beer bottle, looked at Liu Heming and said very seriously.
Liu Heming frowned, he didn't know what the Sith meant, didn't he already show his mouth just now, why did he say such a thing again.
"Mr. Dexter, in the eyes of the outside world, the life of koalas is well taken care of by us, and we also have the Lombal Koala Conservation Center to take care of these koalas, but this does not mean that the entire koala population has been removed from the endangered level, on the contrary, the situation is more serious. Hiss said.
"At the Lombal Koala Conservation Centre, there are currently 130 koalas under our protective care, and it is the only place where visitors are allowed to take pictures with koalas in their arms. ”
"But this is only in the reserve, and in the natural world, the environment of koalas is being destroyed dramatically. No less than 4,000 koalas die each year in car accidents or by hunting dogs in the family. ”
"I'll go, aren't you protecting them? How can people still bump into them?" Liu Heming asked in disbelief.
"We've put up a lot of signage in the koala flow area, but tragedy still happens. Hiss said.
"It's winter in Australia, and spring will start next month, and every year from September to November, it's the breeding season for these koalas. Many koalas leave the area where they live in search of their perfect mate. ”
"And in the process, they can cross a lot of roads, and these three months of the year are also our busiest season. Some koalas can be saved, and some can only be rare. ”
The reason for this is the erosion of the living environment of koalas and the deterioration of the natural environment. We did a survey a few months ago and looked at more than 1,000 koalas living in regular areas. ”
"But it turned out to be very heart-wrenching. Of these areas, 30 per cent show no signs of koalas ever lived, while many of the remaining areas are currently being extensively destroyed. ”
"I still don't understand, koalas are your national treasures, why do you still do this?" Liu Heming thought for a while and asked.
"Humans, in fact, are the greatest enemies of all species. Hiss said.
"If humans want to expand their living space, they have to plunder the living space of other species. Koalas are very special animals, and their food limitations are also very limited. ”
"Although there are more than 500 species of eucalyptus trees in Australia, not all of them become their food. As a result of the current study, only forty-six species of eucalyptus leaves will be consumed by them. ”
"What's even more special is that koalas living in different areas are also picky about eucalyptus. Most of them will only eat the leaves of eucalyptus trees grown in their hometown, and even if the same eucalyptus tree is planted in another area, they may not eat it. ”
"Last year, we had to euthanize more than 700 koalas in order to control the ecological environment of koalas because of the decline in the number of eucalyptus trees. Otherwise, the eucalyptus trees in that area will not be eaten by them, which will further cause the deterioration of the ecological environment. ”
Hearing Hiss's words, Liu Heming's eyes were full of incredulity. How can such a stupid and cute little animal be able to do it?
But if you think about it, there is nothing wrong with them doing this. The protection and reproduction of animals is not always better. And just now Heath also said that in Australia at present, eucalyptus trees do not grow so much.
If the koalas in that area are allowed to multiply in large numbers, the consequences may be even more severe.
"Mr. Dexter, I wonder if you can contribute to the rescue of the koalas?" Hiss asked, looking at Liu Heming.
Liu Heming frowned, "Does this have anything to do with my introduction of koalas to the zoo?"
I hadn't paid attention to koalas before, and now I feel a little uncomfortable when I hear that these stupid little guys have such an experience. There can be help, and his current investment in wildlife conservation is not small, but he doesn't want to make such help taste bad.
"Mr. Dexter, you have misunderstood, there is no necessary connection during this period. Heath hurriedly said.
"If you want to bring these koalas into your zoo, there will be a professional evaluation process. We will only approve it if we are sure that you are right for life in these koalas. ”
"We invite you to participate in the conservation of koalas because we are setting up a joint working group to do a comprehensive survey of the overall living environment of koalas in Australia. ”
"If we don't do anything about it, and just rely on these methods to protect it, I'm afraid that in less than twenty years, these koalas will disappear from the face of the earth. ”
"Dad, is this really the case?" asked Alex, who didn't know when he came back from playing with Diandian outside, and ran up to Liu Heming.
"Well, Uncle Heath is there to protect these little ones, and if he says so, it's very likely. Liu Heming hugged his daughter into his arms and said.
In fact, he didn't think it would be like this, as long as he adopted these koalas, they would definitely live happily on their own turf.
"Dad, can we help them? We can raise more of them, so that they can live a good life." The little guy thought for a moment and said.
"Okay, then let's raise more. Liu Heming nodded on the little guy's nose and said.
After letting go of the little guy, Liu Heming looked at Hiss again, "Mr. Hiss, I can do something in this matter." Because our family loves small animals, we have spent a lot of money on animals in the past two years. ”
"Australia is a magical land, and I need to do something about it. You may not know much about me yet, but when it comes to planting, my ranch is very distinctive. ”
"Now that artificial orchard of mine is under construction, and in the future I will also grow some endangered plants. I'm going to include eucalyptus trees in one of them and plant a eucalyptus forest in it. ”
"So when the eucalyptus forest is planted in the future, if there is a similar situation here for you, don't kill these koalas, after all, they are a small life, and they can be put in my orchard in the future. ”
"And our cooperation does not have to be limited to the koala species, my orchard is very large, and it will be able to provide a suitable living environment for many endangered species in the future. So if any of the rest of your species here are still endangered, we can all consider accepting them. ”
When he first had this orchard project, many people said that they should make some contribution to the protection of endangered species.
At that time, he didn't pay much attention to this, thinking that this was and didn't have much to do with him. Now he doesn't feel that way, because by protecting these plants, he also indirectly protects these animals.
Hiss was a little depressed, and just asked himself if the introduction of koalas should be linked to the koala protection operation, as if he would not be satisfied after the link.
But now, after he vehemently denied it, he was thinking about the other animals in Australia. Do you want the world of rich people to be so complicated? How can you be satisfied and obediently take out the money?
After a moment's hesitation, Heath said, "Mr. Dexter, I can't make the decision on this matter for the time being. Because my main job is to protect koalas, and the rest of the species will be taken care of by our domestic wildlife conservation agency. ”
"But I think it's a good thing, and if you have enough time, I can invite you to visit the Lombal Koala Sanctuary. We can also help you contact the relevant departments in China to negotiate these matters. ”
"But there's a premise that no matter which species you're going to introduce, first of all, you have to have an environment that is suitable for them to grow. ”
This is the bottom line he can give, rich people are willful, but he can't send these animals into the fire pit. Sometimes there are some things that money may not be able to solve.
Just like Liu Heming said just now, you can plant a lot of eucalyptus trees, whether you can plant live is a question, and whether these koalas like to eat after you live is another question.
"Okay, today you can take a tour of my island to see what the climate is like on my island, and here I can make some contribution to the conservation of koalas. Liu Heming nodded with a smile.
"Tomorrow we will go to the Dragon Cypress Reserve and see what else I can protect, you can rest assured, I will definitely do my best to protect them." ”
Now I'm in a good mood, and basically there is no problem with bringing in koalas. Whether you can introduce others depends on fate. As for providing them with a comfortable living environment, is this something to consider?
