Chapter 1003: The Mystery of the Bamboo Shoot [Three Watches]
The difficulty of breeding giant pandas is a headache for scientists all over the world, and both wild and captive-bred giant pandas are particularly difficult during the mating period.
Studies have shown that male pandas have a reproductive period of six months or more over a year's period, while female pandas have a very short estrus period, only one to three days.
Due to the short mating period of female giant pandas, it takes luck and a long journey for male giant pandas in the wild to meet female giant pandas on those few days.
Now that giant pandas around the world have reported the results of mating failures, many netizens have questions, is it that the giant pandas in captivity are all sexual-incapacitated?
There are almost no giant pandas that have successfully mated, and they have not even mated, so how can they get pregnant?
Many zoo panda pregnancies are basically done through artificial-insemination. At the same time, in order to avoid inbreeding, the pandas exhibited at the zoo are returned to the conservation center or the rest of the zoo for exchange.
While scientists always encourage female pandas to conceive naturally during ovulation, male pandas often do not cooperate and cannot actually mate with female pandas.
In order to improve the mating ability of male giant pandas, the staff at the Wolong base even came to play A-movies during their mating period, of course, this is not a human thing, but a panda version.
It is said that this panda version of the A-movie is a great way to add fuel to the fun, and almost every zoo with pandas has prepared it, so that the inexperienced male pandas can apply what they have learned.
Take Funi and Netnet as an example, when Funi reached the estrus period in the first two years, Netnet was always the passive side, although it was more comfortable to sit and move, but obviously could not achieve the goal of successful mating.
Now Wang Hao helps them make up for the defects of artificial breeding, and then uses the improvement technique to let them find a trace of the inheritance of their ancestors.
Although the baby panda still belongs to China, it is undoubtedly the best feeling to see the birth of a small life.
"Wangwang, I hope you can give some strength, don't be suppressed by Funi." Wang Hao silently muttered in his heart, just hoping that Wangwang could come up with a male style and make Funi pregnant in one fell swoop.
In November, spring is already in full swing in Australia, and the mating season is quietly coming. If he could give birth to a panda cub in one fell swoop, Wang Hao decided to hide his merit and fame.
"What are you laughing at here alone? If there's something good to talk about, listen to it. Su Jing poked Wang Hao with her elbow, she was puzzled. Obviously, he was very reluctant just now, why is he now smiling treacherously and lewdly.
The inner activity is not enough to come with outsiders, Wang Hao put this expectation in his heart, he shrugged his shoulders and said: "It's nothing, I'm just looking forward to the future of Wangwang and Funi as a parent." â
"Fournie would be a good mother."
"yes, that's what I thought, too." Wang Hao glanced at the little orange in the car, this guy was asleep, and he didn't realize that he had changed places.
Su Jing glanced at Xiao Chengcheng and subconsciously asked, "Then do you think I'm a good mother?" â
Holding his breath, Wang Hao knew that he couldn't hesitate at all, this was a scoring question, and he said eagerly: "Of course you are, what's the doubt." â

Holding the bamboo shoots that the net gave to him in his hand, when Wang Hao and his party came to the restaurant, the waiter almost thought that this Chinese young man wanted to bring his own ingredients to cook.
"Okay, okay, this bamboo shoot quickly took it and made it into a specimen and put it away. If you keep it in your hand, it will rot quickly. Liu Ping really didn't want to see her son's stupidly happy appearance, so she clapped her head directly.
"I've got people to contact the taxidermy in Adelaide, and I'll send it over later, and I'm sure it will be ready before we take off in the evening. Of course, all I have to do now is take a picture of it and post it online. â
Of course, there are such good things to share with netizens, people don't pretend to be forced to live, just like brocade clothes walking at night.
Usually Wang Hao doesn't show off his wealth or take photos, so he posts some of his pets and beautiful scenery, and now he suddenly posted this bamboo shoot photo on Weibo and Instagram, with a text: "One of the best gifts in life, I like it so much!" Do you know who gave it this gift? There is a mystery jackpot for the friend who guesses. â
After the official account of Golden Ranch, which has not updated Wei-Bo for almost three days, sent out such a news, many active fans began to wonder, who had nothing to send such a bamboo shoot over, this speculation is too wide.
If this is a show of affection, then it is easy to guess that it is Su Jing; If she wants to show off her daughter, Xiao Chengcheng doesn't seem to be able to walk and can't dig bamboo shoots. Could it be a soup dumpling, but will the answer to the question appear so easily?
As a result, netizens turned into Detective Conan, began to look for clues, and quickly left messages.
"[Doge] I guess the little black mastiff dug it up for you, and my soup dumplings don't touch anything as dirty as dirt." This reply has received more than 3,000 approvals from different netizens in a short period of time, and it seems that everyone thinks so.
"It's too wide, how can you guess that? Since someone guessed the little black mastiff, I guess the little gold. â
"The thinking upstairs is too jumpy, the golden eagle is flying in the sky, how can it be possible to dig bamboo shoots. Could it be a kangaroo? â
"Everyone is guessing animals, so no one is guessing humans? Is it a cute little girl or a naughty little boy? â
"What the hell is this bamboo shoot, it deserves to be shown off like this. No matter how I look at it, I think this is an ordinary bamboo shoot, no different from those bamboo shoots on the mountain behind my house. â
"Am I the only one who doesn't understand? There must be something very precious in the bamboo shoots, I guess gold, after all, the golden pasture. â
"There are more than 20,000 replies, and no one has guessed right? Announce the answer! â
"@ĺçŠćĺż, mist and mist, let's see what the mystery of this bamboo shoot is, and ask for an answer."
"@ćąĺŽĺ ŹĺŽĺ¨çşż, mother-in-law, do you know this bamboo shoot?"
A large number of people on Weibo are speculating about what is so special about this product and why it makes a rich man so happy.
The initiator, Wang Hao, watched the surging messages on Weibo with his own eyes, and he read it patiently, but no one guessed correctly, is this question out of the outline?
At this time, the famous micro-blog popular science blogger "Naturalist Magazine" was @ countless times in a row, and finally forwarded this micro-blog: "[Pick your nose] This is the ordinary arrow bamboo, a hazelnut plant, also known as slippery bamboo." It is best eaten in February and March before the spring bamboo shoots are unearthed and in September and October in autumn. Considering that the blogger is in Australia, it is spring over there, so I may have tasted the deliciousness. (To be continued.) )
