Next chapter

Hearing this voice, Nangong Yan pursed her lips and smiled at Su Ming, which means that you are really busy, and it has only been less than a day since you came back, and a ** person came to the door.

In this smile, there is no impatience or unhappiness, on the contrary, Nangong Yan is quite proud in her heart, which shows that she is a man with ability. Let's talk about this town, whether it is Mayor Wu in front of you or the one outside, in fact, it is the man of his own family who is really in charge.

Lao Wu was obviously stunned, stood up and asked Su Ming in a consultative tone: "Why don't I go through the back door first?" For specific things, you can talk to him again, if you think it's okay, it can really bring benefits to the town, and it's nothing for me, the mayor, to give it to him. ”

"Lao Wu, we are not trading privately, we are all for the good of the town, and there is nothing that you can't see if you are open. You go out with me and have a look. Su Ming smiled and took Lao Wu's hand and walked out.

"It's fine."

As soon as I got out of the gate of the yard, I saw a big truck at the door, surrounded by a large group of people from the town, and Sun Lijun was standing in the back of the car.

The carriage was covered with a layer of canvas, and there seemed to be something under the canvas.

Seeing that Lao Wu was also there, Su Lijun was slightly stunned, and both sides smiled a little embarrassedly, which was regarded as a hello. Sun Lijun said to Su Ming: "Big brother, my boss knows that you open a zoo and like animals, these are specially given to you." ”

After speaking, Su Lijun brushed off the canvas on the truck compartment.

"Wow"

There was a burst of exclamation, and even Su Ming's eyes widened.

On the truck, there is a large iron cage.

The large cage was larger than the cage used by the zoo to transport gorillas, and contained an animal about the size of an adult elk, much like a deer, but much stronger than a deer, muscular as a calf, with two long sharp horns on the top of the head, and symmetrical white stripes on both cheeks, which looked very much like the oil paint on the face of the Indians

"Antelope?" Some of the onlookers said.

Su Ming frowned slightly, climbed into the car, stared at the big guy, and looked carefully from both sides. The two horns on its head are identical in size, shape, and angle, so that when viewed from the side, it looks like a unicorn, with only one horn.

"This is Wu Guangniu?" Su Ming asked Sun Lijun uncertainly.

This thing is so rare that even Su Ming has never seen it alive, only seen specimens.

"Big brother is really insightful!" Su Lijun gave a thumbs up and said proudly: "It's Wu Guangniu, this guy also has another name, known as the Asian Qilin!" ”

When he said this, it was really a bit like, the stripes on Wu Guangniu's face looked majestic and mysterious, and his body was strong and powerful, but there was no scale armor.

Wuguang cattle, Asian unicorn, scientific name is central and southern oryx, a class of the genus Bovidae. Since the two horns have the same arc, it seems that there is only one horn from the side, and it is also known as the Asian unicorn, which Su Ming recognized based on this characteristic.

Although China has thousands of years of unicorn legends, it is only a matter of the past few decades that the Wuguang cow has been known by humans, and in 1992 it was first discovered in the Annam Mountains, and its discovery was then considered one of the most amazing animal species discoveries of the 20th century.

Su Ming shook his head and smiled, his backstage boss's way is really wild, the population of Wuguang cattle is very scarce, facing extinction, and is listed as a critically endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, the number is so small that even the International Union for Conservation of Nature cannot accurately estimate it.

There may be only a hundred or so in the world, maybe only a few dozen, and they are even extinct.

The Asian unicorn was already scarce, but after more than a decade of human discovery, it was hunted down and re-emerged as a legendary creature.

It is precisely because the number is too small, and it is not an endemic species in China, and there is basically no in China, so Wuguang cattle are not in the list of protected animals in China.

It's like no country has included Phoenix, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Wild Ultraman in the animal protection list.

Wu Guangniu was originally lying in the cage, but after seeing the person, he immediately struggled a few times and struggled to stand up, looking at the crowd with a stern expression, full of momentum and a stern expression, giving people the feeling that a big leader was inspecting.

"Cousin, where did you get this thing?" Su Ming probed with his spiritual power, and this Wuguang cow was very healthy, and it was not injured, not like it had been poached.

"Hey, we'll talk about that later, and we'll see about that."

Su Lijun bent down and uncovered the rest of the canvas.

In addition to the large iron cage containing Wu Guangniu, there were also four small cages about the size of a suitcase, and each cage contained three or four of the same little guys.

The little one was covered in gray fluff, only the size of a fist and looked like a little mouse, dragging a long, thin hairless tail, kangaroo-like hind legs, but with a pair of rabbit-like ears and a piggy nose.

There were more than a dozen of them, and when they saw people, they didn't run in a panic like mice, but jumped up and down in the cage very excitedly.

The cage is too low, and the little ones look good at bouncing, hitting their heads every time, but it still can't stop them from jumping.

Sun Lijun smiled and took out a little guy with a rope tied to his leg from the cage and put it on the car, the little guy was very happy, squatted on his hind legs, jumped up more than a meter high, and looked at Su Ming at eye level.

The little guy was like an acrobat with a spring under his feet, jumping in front of Su Ming, and his two big ears were also displayed.

The little guy in the cage was like eating explosive candy, desperately jumping in the cage, and couldn't stop at all.

"This is a long-eared jerboa, right?" Su Ming wasn't sure at first, but after seeing this little guy's amazing jumping ability, he was sure.

This little guy is a specialty of the Northwest Desert of China: a rat that looks like a rabbit and has hind legs as well as a kangaroo, and is a high jumper in the animal kingdom, capable of jumping more than ten times its height.

The biggest attribute of the long-eared jerboa is that it is naturally stupid, stupidly not afraid of people, similar to the silly roe deer in the Northeast, the silly roe deer will stand still when they see people coming, and the long-eared jerboa will be excited to jump and jump in place, and they don't know how to escape, and they will jump until they can't jump.

Therefore, the long-eared jerboa is known as one of the most suitable cute pets for domestic breeding, which is also the reason why it is endangered.

There are many natural predators of jerboa living in the desert, snakes, eagles, lizards, and even scorpions, and an aggressive carnivore are its natural enemies, except for jumping and hopping, it has no ability to protect itself at all, and what is worse is that it will not run when it sees any other creature.

It's easy to catch it, as long as humans find a habitat for long-eared jerboa and sit down to smoke a cigarette, there will be a lot of jerboa coming and jumping around you

It is completely unknown how this nerd survives on Earth, but in fact, the long-eared jerboa is very rare and is one of the top ten endangered animals in the world.

Like the Wuguang cattle, it has not been included in the list of national key protected animals in China.

"My boss is an animal hobby and has his own estate abroad, which are all in my boss's private collection. I heard that you like animals, so you flew it overnight as a greeting gift. Su Lijun said with a smile. To be continued
