789. Conservation Action (5/5)
The grass by the river 'shook', and a large opossum ran out, staring at the blue ducks for a while, and then tentatively jumped into the water and swam towards the ducks. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing this, the blue ducks hurriedly swam and fled, as Charlie said on the plane, and the ducks marched very fast, like small boats.
Charlie's pupils shrank and said, "Damn, stop this prairie opossum, it wants to eat the cubs of the blue duck!" ”
As he spoke, he picked up a rock from the ground and threw it, and then landed right on the water next to the possum, startling the possum, and finally giving up its predation and climbing ashore in a panic to escape.
Driving away the possums, Charlie breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's why the blue duck is a rare bird, and they like to build their nests near clean water, aquatic weeds, or reeds. ”
"So you know, New Zealand has a lot of stoats, possums and other animals, and they're all natural predators of blue ducks, and they like to sneak up on prey. The fighting power of the blue duck is so poor that not only the eggs and young will be eaten, but sometimes the adult blue duck will also become their meal. ”
"What then?" Lao Wang was a little melancholy, there were too many possums in the pasture, which was a headache for all ranches, and it was not easy to clean up.
Charlie shrugged, he didn't have a good idea, he couldn't stay here every day to protect the ducks, right?
While thinking, Wang Bo walked along the stream, and on the way he found that there were many Duz barramundi living at the bottom of the river, and most of them were only a little bit bigger.
It seems that the blue ducks have not preyed on them on a large scale, and these lungfish have completed the task of breeding under the nourishment of the spiritual spring, and those small fish are newly hatched fish larvae.
In this way, he breathed a sigh of relief, at least the survival of the lungfish would not give him a headache for the time being.
Charlie picked up another stone from the ground and threw it, this time the ducks were frightened, and the big duck continued to swim downstream with the small ducklings.
"What?" Wang Bo asked him.
He shrugged and said, "Can't you see?" Flocks of ducks want to return to upstream waters, they are best off in lakes, opossums have limited swimming ability. ”
Wang Bo shook his head: "It's useless, they must build a nest on the shore, so that opossums ......"
Speaking of this, his heart moved, and he looked at Charlie and said, "What are you talking about, these blue ducks like turbulent watersheds?" ”
"Yes."
"Then why not, we have modified the lower reaches of the river, created ladders, and reduced the width of the river, so that the water will naturally become turbulent and the blue ducks will not swim upstream."
"But they still build their nests on the shore," Charlie said. ”
Wang Bo knew that they would build their nests on the shore, and the reason why he wanted the blue duck to appear in the lower reaches of the river was because he wanted to separate the duck from the fish upstream, and the Duz barramundi likes clear water, so the living area is closer to the spring.
This problem still needs to be solved, Wang Bo looked up at the lake, the breeze was blowing, the surface of the lake was gently rippling, and some osprey huts were slowly drifting with the current.
Inspired by this scene, he pointed to the osprey hut and said, "What if we build a nest for the blue ducks on the lake?" How about building a few nests for them to rest on the lake? ”
"Blue ducks are different from cormorants, they like to live in groups, a group of guys stay together, and the nest is also clustered."
Wang Bo's train of thought has been completely opened, he clapped his hands and said: "It's very simple, go find a dilapidated fishing boat, transform the fishing boat, and concentrate on building a few blue duck nests around, won't this problem be solved?" ”
Charlie thought for a moment, then nodded, "I think it's a good idea." ”
"Do it for me right away!" Wang Bo said.
Now he is fully adapted to the work and life of the mayor, and he feels that it feels good to be the boss, he doesn't need to do any specific work, and someone will naturally work at the order.
Before the Blue Duck Nest was built, the ducks needed bodyguards, and among them there were five or six ducklings, and these little things were fluffy and defenseless and had to be protected.
The old king mobilized the eldest prince and let the eldest prince wander by the river, and then called the little prince and desperately poured water on the river.
Xiao Wang drank too much water to pee, Lao Wang led it to pee along the bank of the river, the urine of the liger beast has a special smell, and the opossum does not dare to approach.
If it weren't for the helplessness, he wouldn't use this method, because this is a way to kill a thousand enemies and lose a hundred, and the smell of Xiao Wang's urine will also scare the cattle and sheep, so that the cattle and sheep will not dare to come to the stream to drink.
In special periods, special methods, the problem of drinking water for cattle and sheep is obviously not as important as the survival of ducks.
Blue ducks are so precious that there are less than 3,000 in the whole of New Zealand, even fewer than giant pandas, and if there is an existential crisis in China, it will even alarm the central government.
At first, the presence of the eldest prince frightened the ducks, but they soon discovered that the beast was far less threatening to them than the possums and other animals, so they survived with peace of mind.
Wang Bo guessed that the ducks were also preparing to move, but there were too many cubs with them, and there was no better water quality than Lingquan and Hawea Lake around, so they had no choice but to stay.
The arrival of the blue duck attracts Eva and Lori, and after work and on weekends, the beautiful teacher will take the students and Lori to the lake to watch the ducks.
Wang Bo handed over the work of keeping an eye on the ducks to the attentive Elizabeth, who now has other important work, which is to go to the mine to pay fines.
The lure of the gold mine was so great that from the end of the press conference, there was a sudden surge in the number of tourists and pedestrians in Sunset Town.
Most of these people came for the gold mines, and the tourists were okay, they were not greedy, they just went to pick up two ores with high gold content and take them away.
Because this kind of loose ore can't be smelted, it's not worth taking away too much.
But there are also many miners who come with mining and smelting equipment secretly in order to make a fortune from the gold mines.
The miners are very shrewd, and they didn't take direct action when they arrived in town, but wanted to see what their peers were doing, and what the town was dealing with.
On the fourth day after the press conference, the first mining team couldn't sit still, and at midnight a team of five people went up the hill with their gear.
Wang Bo arranged for the police to be on duty on the mountain for the night, and sent both the strong man and the queen over for safety.
As soon as the gold digging group entered the mountain, it was discovered by the strong man, who woke up the sleeping Aturu with one paw and took him to find these people.
Seeing the gold digging group carrying equipment and equipment, Atulu didn't dare to go on his own, the other party was overwhelming, so he hurriedly called Lao Wang.
Lao Wang finally waited for the opportunity to make an example of the monkey, immediately turned over, put on a police uniform, called Uncle Bing and asked him to fly a helicopter, and then he drove towards the mine. (To be continued.) )
