1174.Saving the Calf (part 5/5)
After the calf opened its eyes, Wang Bo found that its pupils were purple-blue, and the lips and tips of its tongue were also purple-blue. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What kind of cow is this?" The first time he saw it, he felt strange.
When he looked at the screen of his mobile phone, he found that the screen had been swiped again:
"Musk ox! Shet! Musk ox! It's a musk cow! ”
"Damn, Wang is really unlucky! The strong man caught the musk ox! ”
"If you have something to discuss, don't call the police, guys!"
"Fool, call the police quickly, otherwise the musk cow herd will come to take revenge, and the king and the dog will be unlucky!"
Through the words on the screen, Wang Bo already knew the name of this cow, this is the musk ox, and looking at the text on the screen, it seems that it is not a good thing to capture the musk cow.
There was still a signal on the mobile phone here, so Wang Bo went online to check the information of the musk cow.
The musk ox is an endemic species that lives in the Arctic tundra, and they are found in the extremely inhospitable barren lands of the Arctic tundra regions of Alaska, northern Canada, Greenland, Norway, and other places.
In fact, Alaska in winter seems to be a frozen land with no grass, but in the summer it is very warm and there are many animals, lemmings, foxes, wolves, rabbits and all kinds of nesting birds.
But when winter arrives, the land is covered with snow and ice, and these animals leave, and most of them migrate to the warmer south, where only a few animals such as musk oxen stubbornly stay.
Musk oxen are extremely tenacious, they are more resistant to hunger and thirst, and they are also resistant to cold, and their thick downy can withstand the bitter cold of minus 50 degrees Celsius in the Arctic.
This has to do with the structure of their fur, they have two layers of hair, the inner layer is thick and dense enough to resist any cold and moisture, and the outer layer of thick and long hair is suitable for protection against rain, snow and wind.
Wang Bo noticed that musk oxen like to inhabit rocky and barren places, they have a strong social nature, brave personality, and will not flinch and run away in the face of any strong enemy, whether it is a wolf pack or a polar bear, they have the courage to fight.
Moreover, they are tactical when they participate in battle, and when the enemy appears, the musk oxen will immediately form a defensive formation, with the adult bull at the forefront and the young calf in the middle.
Because musk oxes, whether bulls or cows, have horns, tough fur and strong physical fitness, even polar bears dare not be presumptuous in the face of cows.
So how did Grow steal such a calf? This made Wang Bo particularly puzzled.
There is no doubt that the strong man is very strong, but Wang Bo will not believe that it can compete with a polar bear, and even with the ferocity of a polar bear, it is almost impossible to drag a calf away from a musk cow herd.
Unless, the calf is left behind or out of the pack.
But this is not reliable, musk ox is a very team animal, they will surround the calf in the middle when they move, and if the calf is left behind, they will scatter to find it.
It was this solidarity that prevented them from being wiped out by the slaughter of whites in the nineteenth century.
Of course, their survival depends more on the protection laws that people introduced later, otherwise they would have been slaughtered by the people a long time ago.
The whole body of the musk ox is a treasure, the cow hair is the top fur of the European and American high society at that time, the cowhide is the top raw material for making boots and belts, the beef is fragrant, and they also have valuable horns, which are more valuable.
Wang Bo read the introduction on the Internet, the white people are very skilled in hunting musk oxen, and they can wipe out a population every time.
Normally, the hunters would first send hunting dogs to chase the musk oxen, and when the musk oxen angrily formed a defensive circle ready to fight to the death, they would shoot them one by one.
Because musk oxen do not run away, but choose to carry them to the end, they are often shot out.
This killing was so effective that the musk ox in Alaska became extinct around 1865. By the beginning of the 20th century, musk oxen in Canada and Greenland were also on the verge of extinction.
Later, in 1917, the Canadian government passed a law prohibiting the killing of musk oxen, and in 1930, the U.S. Congress funded the reintroduction of 34 musk oxen from Greenland to Alaska.
Under protection, musk oxen reproduce very quickly. There are about 3,000 musk oxen in Alaska and about 80,000 worldwide, and they are no longer considered endangered.
Although it is not considered endangered globally, in Alaska, the musk ox is still on the animal protection list, and if the strong man hunts the calf, Wang Bo will have to suffer a lawsuit.
Fortunately, the calf was not dead, Wang Bo quickly took out a bandage to stop the bleeding, and at the same time hung normal saline on it and began to rescue it.
The audience in the live broadcast room was dumbfounded:
"I even have a first aid kit, I'll take it!"
"It's normal to bring a first aid kit, this is for people and dogs, I take a strong man, it can get a musk ox!"
"Be careful, king, the herd will find them, they are very good at following the breath of their own kind to find them."
Wang Bo didn't have time to watch the live broadcast room, he received a call from the organizers, and it was obvious that the audience was not the only one who was paying attention to him.
"King, how did you catch a musk ox?!"
Wang Bo hurriedly explained: "Sorry sir, it was my dog who accidentally hurt it, but don't worry, I will definitely cure it!" ”
"Then you don't move there, try to save the musk ox first, and if you don't think you're sure, don't do it, and our team of experts will set off shortly."
Wang Bo agreed, and even the organizer was alarmed, so he didn't have time to care about the opinions of the audience in the live broadcast room.
The most important thing at the moment is to save this calf, he didn't expect the strong man to be so violent, and as soon as he went out, he dragged a protected animal back.
The strong man was very clever, and when he saw that Lao Wang not only did not praise himself but was busy treating his prey, he instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and quickly got into the tent and only showed his head and pretended to be a good dog outside.
Wang Bo didn't have time to settle accounts with it, and after some busyness, he finally rescued the calf.
The musk ox was so strong that he wrapped up his wounds, gave it medicine and spiritual water, and the calf was able to lie on his stomach, but he still couldn't stand, and one of his legs was lame by the strong man......
A gust of wind blew, Wang Bo smelled the smell of burning, and only then did he remember that he hadn't eaten dinner yet, and a pot of beef soup had dried to char.
After brushing the pot with snow water and recooking it, he finally drank the hot beef broth.
The organizer's expert group had not yet arrived, and Wang Bo called while drinking delicious beef soup and told them that they didn't need to send someone over, he had already taken care of the calf.
After watching the condition of the calf through the mobile phone video, the organizer finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then called the experts who were halfway through.
The night was cold, and Wang Bo went into the tent early to sleep.
In the haze, the dog outside suddenly barked violently!
