The best thing here is that Wang Hao can not only wander slowly, but also solve lunch here, buy a dozen fresh oysters, a piece of orange-red salmon, and then buy two pieces of fragrant garlic bread at the food stall next to it, and finally a big bag of sweet purple cherries, every food is the taste of the Australian sun and the sea.

After eating so many things, Wang Hao still moved his index finger after seeing Italian food, but his stomach seemed to be resisting Wang Hao's overeating, and he couldn't help but burp.

The sun is shining, and almost everyone is wearing cool sunglasses and walking on the road in cool clothes to look chic and neat. And when Wang Hao walked out of the market, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he had encountered street performances.

A handsome blonde guy is singing affectionately with a guitar, and his friends behind him are beating drums, playing bass and electronic keyboards, and a small band is formed. The songs they sang were relatively obscure, they may have written their own songs, but they had a sunny atmosphere of the countryside, and many people gathered around to listen with their heads shaking their heads, and applauded from time to time. Some people took out change and put it in the box in front of them to encourage these young people.

Wang Hao paid attention to the big truck behind them, it looked a little dilapidated, if there was no accident, it was the residence of several of them, wandering on a truck to perform, this is something that many people once dreamed of, but very few can really implement it. After listening to the performance for a while, Wang Hao took out two ten-yuan bills from his wallet and put them in, although this money is small, it should be able to have a lunch.

After he put his belongings in the trunk of the SUV, he took the baby turtle out of the box, and the top priority was to go to the veterinarian to save the baby turtle. This tortoise, which was picked up from the wild, has become an indispensable part of the ranch, and everyone is worried about him.

The little turtle with its head, tail, and limbs shrunk into the turtle shell now weighs five or six kilograms, and according to Wang Hao's previous thoughts, it will definitely be able to boil a pot of delicious soup, but unfortunately he hasn't thought about it at all now.

Many people have set their eyes on the pets in Wang Haoji's hands, and there are many people who hold dogs and cats, but there are not many people holding such a big turtle, and there are not many mavericks, such as snakes, spiders, lizards, etc., but Australia does not seem to have such a big turtle.

Because of the special natural environment and many pastures in Thor Town, there are no minor illnesses and pains in their ranches, so there are more veterinarians and pet clinics derived from them. The scale of the pet clinic here is not large, that is, it is just a small house, which is simply divided into four places: pet grooming area, foster care area, medical area, and inpatient area.

"Hello, what kind of service do you need?" A blonde girl dressed in white smiled sweetly at Wang Hao, and the work sign pinned to her chest told Wang Hao her name, Katie.

Wang Hao gestured to the little turtle in his hand and asked, "I'll check this turtle to see why it hasn't come out for so long, and whether it's sick." ”

Katie is also very knowledgeable, she studied veterinary medicine at the University of Melbourne, and now she is only returning to her own pet clinic for an internship, but she has never seen a turtle like Wang Hao's hand.

She asked a little puzzled: "There are almost no land turtles in Australia, can your turtle stay on land for a long time?" Seeing that its shell is very dry, it must have never been in the water, right? Let's see if it's short of water, I have a special glass tank for water turtles here, you can put it in and have a look. ”

Wang Hao was a little drumming in his heart, he was a little suspicious that he was mistaken, he really regarded this turtle as a land turtle, and put it on the floor every day to let it crawl, except for drinking water, the rest of the time almost no contact with water.

But he didn't dare to put the baby turtle in a glass jar, what if it had really become a land turtle? Isn't it to drown it? The claws and shells of the baby turtles were different from those ordinary flat turtles.

So he opened his mouth and politely refused: "Miss Katie, I think it's better to check directly, my turtle doesn't look like a water turtle, and it's usually fine, but it's just the same as it is in the last two days." ”

Katie's footsteps paused for a moment, she turned her head to look at her hand with disinfectant rubber gloves, and said, "Can I take it and have a look?" Maybe I'm mistaken, need to confirm. ”

Hand over the turtle in his hand, although Wang Hao was a little suspicious of the young girl's professional Cheng Dù, but now it seemed that he could only trust her, because there was no one in the vicinity except for the cats and dogs in the cage.

There was only one tortoise shell left, and the limbs of the baby turtle were shrunk into it, and Katie could only make a simple judgment by its shell, which was usually rough on its back, the color of a dead branch, and the lattice wide; Turtles have smooth backs and are brighter in color.

Also, the tortoise's shell is relatively flat, but the tortoise's shell is raised high, so Katie asked, "Sir, what do you usually eat as a tortoise?" If the food is not right, there will be problems. ”

After thinking about it confidently, Wang Hao said with certainty: "I feed it fresh beef and mutton every day, and the rest of the animals also eat the same thing, so it should be no problem." ”

It's a pity that Katie is confused this time, because terraptors usually eat meat, and tortoises usually eat grass. The shell of this turtle looks like that of a tortoise, and its habits are relatively similar, but the diet is the same as that of a water turtle.

She said apologetically: "I'll take you to the medical area to register first, my father will be back soon, he will go out to eat, you sit down and have a cup of coffee first!" ”

Originally, I wanted to be on my own, but I didn't expect the first sick pet to be so tricky, she didn't even recognize the most basic information, which is really a bit demoralizing to think about.

Holding a cup of instant coffee, Wang Hao once again felt desperate for this clinic, he didn't know if he should leave, it looked too informal. Just when he hesitated, a bald man rushed in, his forehead was still sweating, after seeing Wang Hao, he hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting, I'm the attending doctor here, David, I'm good at mammals, and I'm slightly inferior to chordates, if there is no problem with the inspection, I recommend you go to a specialized paraphyll hospital for chordates." ”

This person is more reliable when he hears it, and he is not as confident as Katie, so Wang Hao's worry is a little less, and he said: "That's right, this turtle has been in this state for two days, and has not eaten or drunk, but it can hear its heartbeat." ”

David carefully placed the little turtle on the operating table, he used a spotlight to shine on the turtle's body, and then used a small flashlight to shine into several small holes in the turtle's shell, and then carefully used a mirror to reach inside, vaguely seeing the specific appearance.

It closed its eyes tightly, seemed unresponsive to the qiē that was happening around it, and still fell asleep. After David measured the rest of the things, he asked Wang Hao seriously: "Sir, do you have a photo of this turtle before?" When you buy it, does the merchant make it clear about its variety? ”

"Actually, I didn't buy it, I just picked it up from my ranch. About a month ago, after a heavy rain on the ranch, I went out to work, and then I saw it crawling on the muddy road, and I thought it was cute, so I took it home and raised it. I should have a picture of it on my phone, I'll flip it out and show it to you. ”

Thanks to his social accounts, he posted pictures of animals every day when he didn't have anything to do, causing some girls to think he was a zoo worker.

"Well, if that's right, this should be an Australian short-necked turtle." David looked at the pictures in Wang Hao's phone and came to such a conclusion. Although he is not a major in reptiles, he knows a lot about this endangered animal.

Turning to the front of the computer, he crackled and searched, then pointed to the screen and said: "look, this is the photo of the Australian short-necked turtle, which is almost the same as the one on your phone, but the Australian short-necked turtle is a half-water turtle, which can be both in the water and on the ground." But what I can't figure out is that I have never heard of an Australian short-necked turtle that can grow so big, and the whole shell has changed dramatically, which is incredible. ”

Wang Hao chuckled in his heart, he didn't expect that he just wanted to get a giant tortoise out at that time, and as a result, he sent a lot of magic power to the little turtle, and also used quite a lot of ripening techniques, could it be that these things made the little turtle mutate?

"If you're not mistaken, then this Australian short-necked turtle should have undergone evolutionary mutations, and I have long heard that short-necked turtles are super adaptable, and short-necked turtles in different regions have different colors, sizes, and even different shell patterns." Before Wang Hao could make excuses for himself, David said a lot.

This made Wang Hao almost want to shake his hand, thanking him for helping him find such a good reason to hide his knowledge of druid magic. However, he did not forget his original intention: "But why hasn't it woken up yet?" Is it a genetic problem that evolutionary variation is incomplete? ”

"You think too much, although it has mutated and evolved, it still retains some of the habits of the Australian short-necked turtle, which not only sleeps in the winter to reduce consumption, but also falls into dormancy in the hot summer. The Australian short-necked turtle is dormant during the dry summer months, known as the summer, during which time it barely moves. ”

Wang Hao suddenly realized, it turned out that this was the legendary turtle breath, and there was nothing wrong with the little turtle, but he had been sleeping for a long time, and he was greatly relieved.

"By the way, the Australian short-necked turtle is now very rare, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has listed them as CR (critically endangered), and if Mr. Wang is willing to cut his love, he can consider sending this turtle back to the wild."

David concludes by advising that he is particularly interested in this strange evolved little turtle, but has not considered owning or studying it himself, but has put it back into nature. (To be continued)
