Chapter 23 Causes
Finding a rock to sit down and resting, Qin Yan scratched his head, thought about the reason, and thought for a long time, when he suddenly felt a hot breath appear behind him, with a familiar smell, which startled him.
Turning his head to look, a Siberian tiger was clinging to him, his eyes were full of curiosity, he turned his head, and the Siberian tiger stretched out its tongue and licked it towards his face, which was called a damp heat with a slight pain.
The tiger's tongue has barbs that allow it to lick the broken flesh off its bones, but now it is not strong, but it is not comfortable.
Qin Yan pushed the tiger's head aside and patted its head, but the Siberian tiger was lying there all of a sudden, and Qin Yan had no choice but to help it tickle and tease the tiger.
Looking at the obedient tiger, Qin Yan forgot his purpose for a while, and directly took out his mobile phone to take a few photos with the Siberian tiger, straddle the Siberian tiger to fight the tiger, or hold the Siberian tiger, one big and one small, put the two heads together to make a match, or put the huge claws of the Siberian tiger on the shoulder.
Every photo is beautiful, yet thrilling.
He was having fun here, but Huang Yunkai and the others were in a hurry, and they called after a while, anxiously asking, "Qin Yan, what is your situation now, where are you?"
Qin Yan reacted at this time, he was playing too well, maybe others thought he was eaten by the Siberian Tiger, so he said, "Don't worry, I'm checking the situation." ”
Qin Yan reluctantly said goodbye to the Siberian Tiger, and suddenly a mound of dirt caught his attention. It's a new pile of dirt that doesn't look like it has been dug up for long.
This is a free-range area, usually even people rarely come over, where do people go to dig a pit, looking at the tiger footprints left on it, Qin Yan has a guess, is it the Siberian tiger did it, what is it doing with so much soil?
Qin Yan carefully paid attention to the situation around the mound, and soon found traces of the surrounding mud spilling, although the Siberian tiger tried its best to cover it up, but how much wisdom did the tiger have, there was a lot of dirt sprinkled on the road.
Qin Yan followed the dirt, turned a corner, and found a cave behind the bushes. The cave is not deep, only two or three meters deep, and Qin Yan can see the head at a glance.
As soon as he looked in, he saw a tiger staring at him coldly, and under it there were several tiger cubs that had not yet opened their eyes, wriggling and feeding.
This turned out to be a tiger's den.
Qin Yan's cold sweat came down at that time, the female beast during the breeding period was not comparable to the beasts at other times, for the sake of her little cub, she dared to fight with an opponent who knew that she couldn't beat.
He was now obviously startled by the tigress, and if the other party went crazy at all costs, he probably wouldn't even have room to react with his ability. hurriedly threw out a nourishment technique to win the favor of the Siberian tiger.
Seeing its relaxed body, he breathed a sigh of relief, slowly approached, and tentatively **, this time the Siberian Tiger did not object, but let him **, even the little Siberian Tiger under its protection was exposed, Qin Yan picked up one, and the Siberian Tiger did not react much.
This is a pure tiger nest, not those artificially made can be compared, not to mention him, even the staff of the Siberian tiger conservation and breeding base are rarely seen, did not say, directly picked up the mobile phone, clicked a few photos, took pictures with the tiger cub, took a photo with the tigress behind, and opened the video to record the whole picture of the tiger's nest.
After a series of actions, Qin Yan's curiosity was satisfied, and after thinking for a while, he wanted to see if there was a limit to his ability to get close to animals, so he hugged the little Siberian tiger and prepared to go out.
Now the tigress stopped doing it, blocking in front of him, Qin Yan knew that this angered the bottom line of the tigress, it seems that trust is not bottomless, you must pay attention in the future, let go of Xiaohu and leave alone, and find Yuan Lu and them.
A group of people nestled in the car, who had been in a hurry for a long time, saw him come back, and hurriedly opened the car door to let him in.
Yuan Lu got up and asked, "Qin Yan, what happened, why didn't you come back until now." ”
"It was a Siberian tiger that dug a tiger's nest there and gave birth to three small Siberian tigers, for such a long time, you didn't even know!"
Yuan Lu laughed, a little embarrassed. It takes more than 100 days for the tigress to give birth from pregnancy to delivery, coupled with such a big movement as digging a burrow, a series of things, they didn't even notice it at all, which cannot but be said to be a mistake.
Even in free-range areas, it is difficult to supervise, and it should not be.
"You know it's free-range, and we try to minimise the disturbance here, and there will be places where you can't see well. Moreover, Siberian tigers give birth to natural burrows, who would have thought that they would dig burrows. ”
He patted his head and said, "But this also proves that we are doing it correctly, if it weren't for the Siberian tigers being wary of our interference, how could they follow their instincts to dig their own burrows and build tigers' dens." This is an unthought result of conducting rewilding training.
Do you know which Siberian tiger gave birth?"
Qin Yan shook his head. "I don't know, but I took a few pictures and you can see if it's familiar. ”
Several people looked at it, recognized it for a long time, and finally shook their heads, the Siberian tigers all looked the same, how could they recognize them.
"Let's go back, I didn't expect this to be the case, but we numbered the Siberian tiger as early as after it was born, and buried a chip in its body, as long as the scanner scanned the neck of the Siberian tiger, it can show the number, and we go back to get the scanner. ”
A few people went back, this time the veterinarian and the maintenance staff did not follow again, Huang Yunkai and Yuan Lu took off the protective clothing to follow, they were not ready to go down, the protective clothing in order to have a better protective ability, made very heavy, worn on the body as if wearing several layers of fur coats, not only uncomfortable, but also affect the action, if it is not necessary, no one wants to wear.
Seeing this, Qin Yan also took off his protective clothing, he didn't plan to wear it at the beginning, he still put it on at Yuan Lu's strong request, since he showed his ability, he didn't have to be afraid of the Siberian tiger at all, it was better not to wear it or not.
The three of them drove back to the hills, Qin Yan returned to the tiger's den with the scanner, but this time in addition to the scanner, Qin Yan also brought some beef, which was for the female Siberian tiger, which consumed a lot of physical strength after production, plus the need to feed the tiger cubs, the nutrition could not keep up at all, there must be enough food to supplement nutrition, and beef is nutritious, which is the best choice.
Along the way, Qin Yan encountered many Siberian tigers, and they followed behind, not because they were interested in Qin Yan, but because they wanted to eat the food he brought.
Qin Yan drove all the way, he really couldn't cry or laugh, these big cats were desperate for food, and even his angry scolding didn't work much, and he kept wanting to come over and bite so many bites.
When he came to the tiger's den, the female Siberian tiger looked at him vigilantly, and stood up immediately when she smelled the food she brought, Qin Yan quickly put the food on the ground, and the tiger ran over to eat.
Qin Yan took the opportunity to scan his neck, and when he saw the number on it, he wrote it down and began to tease those little Siberian tigers. Before the little ones could open their eyes, the mother left the side and began to move around, trying to find her.
The tigress was eating and didn't care about them. Qin Yan took the opportunity to check and picked up a teaser, the little tiger had just been born for a few days, his eyes had not yet opened, and it was not big, almost like a kitten that had just become an adult.
Smelling the smell of Qin Yan's family, he arched into his arms vigorously, feeling very attachment. Qin Yan touched the tip of its nose with his fingers, the little tiger bit it, sucked it up, and actually regarded his finger as **, Qin Yan was dizzy.
Seeing how hard it sucked, Qin Yan hesitated, didn't pull it out, it was wet and slippery, and it was still sucked, it felt very special.
