Hearing his words, Motak blinked, then suddenly ran forward, opened his hand and shouted: "Zhuangding, come back, Zhuangding, don't bite!" ”

Wang Bo asked, "What's wrong?" Wouldn't it be nice to let it catch these purple water chickens? ”

Purple water pheasants are quite beautiful, but Sunset Town is a bit overcrowded with chickens, they have no natural predators here, and the food is abundant, so the population expands quickly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Motak turned around and smiled bitterly: "Boss, this is not a purple water chicken, this is a southern rice chicken!" ”

Wang Bo was stunned: "This is the Southern Rice Chicken?" No way? You're not mistaken? ”

Motak said, "Absolutely not, sir, this is definitely the southern coot, the big, purple are the roosters, and the brown ones are the hens—don't straighten up, come back!" ”

Wang Bo also hurriedly shouted: "Zhuangding, come back!" ”

Hearing his words, the strong man who was about to catch up with a purple rooster braked sharply, and then ran back with his tail wagging.

The purple rooster escaped death, flapped its little wings and quickly turned into the green corn field, and then it did not run away, but drilled its little red head out, and looked vigilantly at the strong man's side.

As we all know, New Zealand's national bird is the kiwi, which is a national treasure, and there are only a few thousand of them in New Zealand, which is similar to the number of giant pandas in China, which is quite precious.

But in fact, there is an even rarer bird in New Zealand, which is the southern coot.

It was once declared "extinct" in 1898 and was not discovered again on November 20, 1948, near Lake Teanau in New Zealand's South Island.

Wang Bo had seen the introduction of the southern rice chicken and knew the preciousness of this wild fowl, so he called out the strong man who was ready to attack.

If Zhuang Ding really bites the southern chicken, then he will be in big trouble, this is a bird that is more precious than kiwis, then, there are less than 300 left in New Zealand at present!

The 300 animals have been protected by the New Zealand government for decades, and in order to grow their populations, the New Zealand government has set aside nearly 50,000 hectares of protected areas.

To be honest, until now, Wang Bo didn't think that what he saw was a southern pheasant, but a purple pheasant that was flooding the town.

Both the purple pheasant and the southern pheasant are draped in blue-purple feathers with black from a distance, and the red on the top of their heads is also a feature of both, which is indistinguishable from a distance.

He asked Motack, who gestured and said, "It's easy to tell the difference between them, look at these guys, how fat they get, purple pheasants don't grow so fat." ”

Wang Bodao: "Is it possible that you have eaten fat purple water chicken?" ”

Mottard was stunned for a moment and said, "Boss, your thoughts are really fresh, why do you think so?" But there are other differences, if you look closely, are the feathers of these chickens more colorful? ”

The feathers of the southern rooster are more colorful than the purple pheasant, and the purple pheasant can fly, and it is quite able to fly, and the wings of the southern rooster are an ornament, and they can't fly at all.

As if to confirm his identity, the fat rooster who was chased by Zhuang Ding before saw that Zhuang Ding was far away from him, and he didn't know what he thought, so he ran out stupidly.

It just ran out, but craned its neck in the direction of the strong man and screamed, swinging its little wings vigorously as it screamed.

Now Wang Bo confirmed that it is indeed a Southern Rice Chicken, not a Purple Water Chicken, because the wings of the Purple Water Chicken will not be so small.

Compared to its body size of more than half a meter, these wings of more than ten centimeters are too miniature to fly, no wonder it can't fly, such small wings, such a big weight, unless you hang a propeller on it, you don't want to fly.

Motak laughed, "This southern coot is angry, and they flutter their wings to show affection or intimidate their enemies. Obviously, it's scaring the strong guys. ”

Zhuang Ding is not a good-natured child, after being provoked, he suddenly became furious and chased after him.

The southern rooster was startled, flapped its wings and hurriedly drilled into the green corn field, and a few poked their heads out to see the excitement and fled.

But these guys are very greedy, and one of them jumped up and took a white cherry in his mouth before he ran.

Motak laughed: "Obviously, the thieves are these southern chickens, which makes sense, they are super fond of eating white cherries, maybe they are attracted by this cherry grove." ”

They are omnivorous wild birds that eat berries as a staple food, especially blueberries and cherries, as well as some snails or aquatic insects.

Because of its unique taste, white cherries are not only liked by humans, but also by some animals and poultry that like to eat berries.

When he found the southern chickens, Wang Bo couldn't go to work, so he first transferred a group of capable generals under his command, and he had to catch these southern chickens and take them to a safe place to raise.

The southern crane is relatively huge, and its vitality is tenacious in its natural state, and it can live to be more than 20 years old, which is a very viable species among birds.

However, their populations have not been able to expand due to their low reproductive capacity.

They generally live alone, so although they can grow to a length of 60 cm, weigh 3 kg, and have a strong body, they are still unable to resist natural predators.

After all, their natural predators, whether stoats or opossums, prefer to live in groups.

And their eggs also have a strange attraction to these predators, probably because their eggs are relatively large, and these mice can eat a full meal when they eat one.

Wang Bo can't let them live in the green corn field, there are many opossums and the like in this corn field, although the farm was set up in the early days of the fire to clean the rats, but after a year, the rats are all over the place.

He wanted to take these southern rails to the lakeside for breeding, and there are many rare birds living in Lake Hawea, where there are more tourists and fewer rats, which helps them survive.

In addition, the natural habitat of the southern coot is also a swamp or lake beach area, and their legs are thin and long, of which the leg height accounts for more than half of their height, which is very suitable for survival in this environment.

Another great thing about southern rails is that although they don't have fins, they are good at swimming and diving, so it's very suitable for them to live by the lake.

Of course, this is also good for Wang Bo, the Southern Rails in New Zealand is comparable to the existence of giant pandas in China, with the Southern Rails flock, it is equivalent to one more tourism project, which must attract many people.

As for the white cherries that attract these southern chickens, it doesn't matter, he will arrange for people to feed them every day.

In addition, when the harvest season comes, all the white cherries will be harvested, and if they continue to stay here, they will soon become short of food.

Wang Bo is also worried that when picking white cherries, he will hurt them, and it would be a big sin to trample one or two to death.
