Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Sultan
In the morning, while eating, Schaller came to him and invited him to a council to decide the fate of the Sultan.
Qin Yan followed, and on the way, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Doctor, otherwise I'll go and see the two female northern white rhinoceros first, and see how their physical condition is." ”
"It's okay, it's better to treat. ”
Schaller nodded in agreement, and the two went to see the two remaining northern white rhinoceros. According to the introduction, Qin Yan knew that these two northern white rhinoceros, one older and one young, were a mother and daughter, and when he heard the news for the first time, Qin Yan's mind drifted away.
Although there are only three northern white rhinos left, it is not a bad thing for the Sultan.
As long as it is a man, he has ever thought that the death of men in the world is extinct, only he is left, and then all the beauties are his, how to choose, how to choose, and the appearance is almost unwanted.
Now the Sultan has not realized this dream, and it is a mother and daughter, and he is the envy of others.
However, this is a great challenge for the continuation of the population, and the possibility of hereditary diseases will be multiplied by inbreeding, and for animals, it will make them worse, weaker, and more susceptible to death at a young age.
But now the northern white rhinoceros has no choice but to marry close relatives, and the consequences of this are ......
If only one of the two female northern white rhinos is able to give birth, then the offspring will do something between siblings for the sake of the continuation of the race.
If they can all have children, then their offspring will be half-married, and it seems that there is not much difference.
The next generation, a little more numerous, is between cousins or cousins. …… In short, the relationship is unimaginably chaotic.
Thinking far ahead in this way, Qin Yan swept away the messy thoughts in his mind.
Both white rhinos are in good condition, and one of them, although older, is only in his 30s, which is far better than the situation in Sudan, and at least can reproduce normally.
"It should work. ”
Xia Le breathed a sigh of relief, even though they had already known the result through the instrument, they were still very happy to hear Qin Yan clearly say the answer.
Qin Yan had to say that Charle had already pulled him away, saying that he was going to discuss the breeding plan for the northern white rhinoceros.
A group of people, mostly black, but also a few white, sat there and discussed.
Sitting at the head of the throne is Henri Matil Rakutuali Manana, Deputy Director of Kenya Wildlife Sanctuary and Senior Engineer of the Animal Sanctuary.
He looked at Qin Yan with a critical gaze, and only after a while did he say in confusion, "Dr. Schaller, are you sure that he can really do it, not a graduate student." ”
"Of course, I have already made it very clear that Qin Yan helped the turtle to regulate its body within a month, so that the turtle could breed successfully this time, this is not me alone, but the unanimous agreement of the entire breeding team. ”
"It's not that I don't believe you, but the Sultan is too old, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to withstand the power of the medicine, and he will die before he can start carrying out his plan.
And then there's two female white rhinos, and you're sure they can do it. ”
"I've already seen it in Qin just now, and he said it works, you say yes, Qin. ”
A group of people all looked at him when they heard this, with scrutiny and distrust in their eyes.
Qin Yan saw that the situation was wrong, and after thinking about it for a while, he said tentatively, "I did say just now that it can be done, but you must know that if you really do this, the Sultan will definitely die." ”
"I know, that's exactly what I'm hesitating about, who knows if you have that ability, or if you're talking nonsense, what can you do to prove it?"
Qin Yan understood it, it turned out that the other party didn't trust him at all, thinking that he was ninety percent sure, but it was actually nonsense, after all, once the Sultan died, if it didn't succeed, no one could say that it was his fault. Anyway, he didn't guarantee 100% success.
Even he didn't have any certainty at all, and in the end, he fed the Sultan a little blue piece casually, ensuring that he was as alive and vigorous as a tiger in his prime, violently urging his life, and finally dying.
With such an effect, what can I do if providence is not favored, but it will also end up with a good reputation.
Thinking about this, he leaned back in his chair and walked back. "No way, you can guarantee me 100% success in this kind of thing, people are still infertile, let alone a white rhinoceros, it is equivalent to an old man in his 80s, I can be sure that it is good, if you think it can't be done, then find someone else." ”
Schaller played a round on either side. "Henry, Qin Yan is someone I invited, I can vouch for him. Qin, you don't have to say a word, Henry is also worried about the white rhinoceros, and he doesn't mean anything else.
The Sultan has been here for 20 years, and he was originally a breeder to feed the Sultan, and he watched the Sultan grow old and the northern white rhinoceros race weaken step by step. Now you have caused the Sultan to die for it, and if he does not succeed, he will die of grief, and his heart will inevitably be irritated. ”
Qin Yan was in awe, and now he understood why Henry would target him, doubting his ability was one thing, and the most important thing was that he was irritable in his heart.
Henry worked hard for the northern white rhinoceros, closer than his own children, and suddenly heard that he was going to kill his children and keep his grandchildren, how could he not be sad in his heart.
He couldn't watch the Sultan being slowly killed by humans, but he couldn't watch the northern white rhinoceros disappear from the face of the earth.
Faced with this dilemma, you have to choose one, how can it be so easy.
Henry's face was embarrassed, and finally said, "Qin, is there no other way than these two choices?"
Qin Yan shook his head, if it was possible, he didn't want the Sultan to die, but it was too old, and there was no way to replace it.
"Alright then, let's raise our hands and see what to do. Raise your hand in agreement with Qin Yan's method. ”
After speaking, Henry closed his eyes in pain, first raised his hand, and tears faintly appeared in the corners of his eyes, obviously reluctant.
Qin Yan was very sympathetic, he wanted to comfort him but couldn't find a word, this dilemma was replaced by no one who could choose, in the face of the Sultan, in the face of 20 years of hard work, he took into account the overall situation and gave up, who can understand the pain.
Most of the others also raised their hands, and soon passed the vote, the Sultan is too old, even if they don't agree, he won't live for a few years, it's better to fight than this.
Schaller asked, "Henry, do you think it will work?"
Henry smiled wryly. "I'm not sure, but do we have a choice, Sudan is the last hope for the northern white rhinoceros, and if the Sudan can't breed, the northern white rhino can only be extinct. ”
Qin Yan was silent, what did you do earlier, a few decades ago, there were countless white rhinoceros roaming on the African grassland, and now there are only three left, and they are still protected by people 24 hours a day to survive.
If we had realized this earlier and protected it earlier, we would not have been in the current situation. For the sake of the reproduction of the race, the last male northern white rhinoceros was chosen to be killed.
"Well, let me think about it, a treatment will be given soon. ”
