Chapter Seventy-Six: The Siberian Tiger
After returning from Professor Bob's home, Li Cheng drove a pickup truck in the night, but his mood was not optimistic, not because he felt that he had a Swiss family dinner at Bob's house, nor because the international student was chatting with Bob in the study, and got the news that a white farmer raised a large number of wild animals on a small farm about dozens of kilometers away from the grizzly bear ranch, about dozens of acres.
You don't need a license to raise wild animals in Ontario, Canada, but in Attabo, although you need a license, in fact, the procedures are quite easy, Li Cheng knew when he adopted a grizzly bear, according to local laws, raising wild animals is not very difficult. As a result of the release into the forest, Li Cheng presented video materials and recordings of many witnesses, all of which confirmed that Li Cheng had indeed released two grizzly bears, and in fact he had transferred them to the Crystal Palace.
Speaking of this hapless farmer, he has a hobby of raising wild animals, such as elk, Canada lynx, Canada goose, Canadian black-footed ferret, and other endemic Canadian wild animals, in addition to that, it is staggering that he also got a Siberian tiger from some source! From the state of the tiger cub to the age of three, cattle and sheep and other meat do not know how many pounds to eat, the farmer who gets along day and night thinks that he has completely tamed the king of beasts, the Siberian tiger, called the Siberian tiger in China, and the Siberian tiger is called more abroad.
But for some reason, this Siberian tiger actually attacked its owner, biting the farmer's neck and killing him with one blow! Now this Siberian tiger is being wanted, and once caught, it will definitely be sentenced to "euthanasia"! Although there are many regulations on the keeping of wild animals in Al Tabo Province, they do not apply to the whole province, especially such private farms and ranches, and the mounted police cannot take care of them all.
In Ontario, where wildlife captivity has led to more attacks on humans, many organizations are calling on authorities to revise and enact new laws and regulations to limit this type of behavior.
Li Cheng is worried that this Siberian tiger will invade the grizzly bear ranch, after all, the distance is only a few tens of kilometers, and it is entirely possible that it will hide in the grizzly bear ranch. Professor Bob, as a tutor at the University of Calgary, has a much wider social base in the local area than Li Cheng, a hillbilly, and got the news through some friends, so he informed Li Cheng, and he also found that the reception of news from the surrounding area is still too slow, and this needs to be further improved.
The three-year-old Siberian tiger can reach about 2 meters in length, 1.2 meters high at the shoulder, and weighs about 300 kilograms, which is similar to the physique of the grizzly bear.
"Just finished dealing with the grizzly bears, the tigers are all out, damn Canada, there are wild animals everywhere!" It can only be said that Canada has put great effort into the protection of wild animals, and elk can be seen everywhere on the roads of the city.
"What a big deer!" Under the headlights of the pickup truck, an elk as tall as the pickup truck stood in the middle of the road, not afraid of the steel box at all.
Li Zhiwu exclaimed, he hadn't seen an elk yet! I don't know where that pair of antlers is soaked in wine, and what the effect is?
"Ah Cheng, don't you have a gun in the car? Let's kill it! "Good dogs don't get in the way, this elk is so bold, when they stop their car, Li Zhiwu is very excited, thinking that he wants to go back with his antlers, he should have a sense of accomplishment, right? Elk antlers seem to be used abroad to decorate more, soaking in wine? No one outside the country has tried it.
However, with the increase in research on the use of elk antlers in medicine, the trend of hunting and killing wild elk has begun to increase in recent years, and they are all smuggled into China.
The elk also has another nickname, that is, the four dislikes, which are the existence of mythical beasts in ancient Chinese mythological novels. Nowadays, there are no real wild elk in China, they are all free-range elk groups.
And Li Cheng looked at this deer carefully, it was relatively large, it should not be an elk, but another species of cervid in Canada, the Canadian red deer.
"Dad, this is a Canadian red deer, not a domestic elk, and it is illegal to shoot a red deer on the road, and it will be in trouble if you anger the red deer, and its antlers will pierce the ...... of the pickup truck" As the largest Canadian red deer in the deer family, the weight of the male red deer can reach 320 kilograms, that is, 700 pounds, the length is 2.5 meters, and it is 1.5 meters to the shoulder, including the antlers and the head at least 2 meters or more!
It is true that it can pierce a pickup truck! Why provoke such behemoths? What's more, this Canadian red deer did not attack Li Cheng and the others.
Bypassing the Canadian red deer, Li Cheng mentioned the news that the farmer dozens of kilometers away from the grizzly bear ranch was bitten to death by a tiger raised by his own family.
"This is raising tigers! Tigers can be raised by ordinary people? That old guy is self-inflicted, and he can't live! Li Zhiwu commented and felt that foreign whites were not very reliable, and raising tigers was really a miracle in the world!
Yi Xiaomei also said: "Raising tigers is really crazy enough, Ah Cheng, I heard from the people in the ranch, how many big bears did you raise before?" "Domestic bears are dominated by black bears and brown bears, and the common people are collectively called dog bears, after all, ordinary people can't tell the nuances of bears.
Li Cheng nodded and said: "Yes, but they are all released into the mountains and forests, by the way, you still don't go out to the ranch alone during this time, and even if you are at home, you must be vigilant, this tiger is likely to enter the ranch, and after I go back, I will discuss with Noah and Lao Pique to increase the vigilance of patrols." ”
"You mean the Siberian tiger didn't catch?" Li Zhiwu is worried about the children in the ranch, if the tiger comes in and the adults encounter, at least they can resist for a while, and the children will meet one by one!
"Yes, the RCMP has issued a bounty order, and now they are actively pursuing it." The Canadian police are the Royal Mounted Police, wearing red jackets, black pants, leather boots, cowboy hats, and often riding tall horses.
"It seems that these words and I have to train more riding and marksmanship, so as not to encounter a tiger and have no power to fight back." When humans face large predators such as tigers, lions, brown bears, and grizzly bears, the most advantageous weapon is a thermal weapon! The use of cold weapons, if you are not an expert-level hunter, it is easy to steal chickens and rice, the sensitivity, speed, and strength of the tiger are amazing, and a mistake will lead to death, on the contrary, the firearm is much more reliable, as long as it is usually properly maintained, there will be no jamming, and beginners can also hunt tigers!
"I also learned this news in a conversation with Professor Bob, and no one on the ranch knows about it yet, but you don't have to worry, Noah and they are all professional hunters, once they find the traces of tigers, they will hunt them on the spot, and the reward issued by the RCMP said that whether you live or die, you can also get a reward of 50,000 Canadian dollars." 50,000 Canadian dollars, that is, almost 300,000 soft sister coins, it can be seen that the public opinion of this evil surname incident has caused great pressure on the authorities.
After all, tigers enter and leave places inhabited by humans, and the people in the vicinity will be frightened, and as taxpayers, they have the obligation to supervise the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
As a free country with high welfare, Canada has extremely high taxes, so the people's right to supervise is even stronger, in their opinion, after paying such a high amount of taxes, the RCMP should do their job, otherwise why pay so many taxes?
After returning to the Grizzly Bear Ranch, Li Cheng called the main person in charge of the ranch, Old Peake, Noah, and Banjie to discuss the news about the possible invasion of the Siberian Tiger on the Grizzly Bear Ranch.
Everyone's reactions were different, old Peake was shocked, while Noah and Benjie were more excited! Because there are no wild tigers in Kananaskis Provincial National Park, the Siberian tiger is endemic to Asia and is found in northeastern Asia.
As an Eskimo in Canada, it is not so much fear, but curiosity, how powerful is the legendary king of the jungle, more powerful than a grizzly bear?
In fact, the grizzly bear and the tiger are fighting, and the winning rate is not certain, according to Li Cheng's idea, it should be five or five, mainly depending on the play, and who has the advantage in the terrain, but it is undeniable that the two large animals are the strongest ones at the top of the forest.
