After the keepers were familiar with the daily operation process and received the training of behavior training, the animals also adapted to the environmental life of the Linhai Zoo, and gradually began to do real behavior training.

It's not just a whistle to know that there is such a thing as running over to eat.

Tiger Pavilion.

In the back room, Xiao Bao held a target stick with a bright orange ball on the top, and a box of meat tied to the belt on his back.

The box is placed in front, and the tiger is distracted when he looks at the meat, and he still pays attention to what the breeder is doing, if the meat is dangling in front of him, he sees that he still doesn't give himself, and he can't train when he gets angry.

"Jiaojiao~"

Xiaobao affectionately called Jiaojiao's name.

Jiaojiao lay in the cage, lazily lifted her eyelids, and glanced at him.

Meng Shi stayed on the side of the training cage, avoiding Jiaojiao's frontal gaze and watching carefully!

Usually accompanied by Fang Ye, he often meets with the tiger, and the more times he sees him, the tiger is not so wary of him.

Now he has got his wish and has become a breeder of the Tiger House.

Although Jiaojiao is not so wary of him, she still doesn't have a good face, and she will roar when she sees him.

"Come, eat meat, eat meat!"

The small bag took out a piece of meat and carried it to the railing with a wooden clip.

The reason for not using your hands is very simple, although the railing of this training cage is tight, and the tiger's claws can't be stretched out, but what should I do if I bite my hand if I give it by hand.

Wooden clips are used because they do not hurt the tiger, and iron clips are the most commonly used, but when the tiger bites down, it may hurt its teeth or its mouth.

Fang Ye has obtained the knowledge of "Animal Behavior Management" by lottery, and there are more details than the general zoo training operation, which has been talked about when training all the breeders.

When Jiaojiao saw the meat, she was a little more energetic, got up and took two steps, and came over to eat it.

A piece of meat of one or two taels is not enough to stuff the teeth, and it is eaten in one bite.

In front of the railing, quietly looking at the small bag.

Xiaobao tapped Jiaojiao's mouth with the target stick, and at the same time quickly pressed the clicker, making a crisp "click" sound.

The sound of "click" echoed in the training cage, startling Jiaojiao!

He stood up straight, looking a little vigilant, but when he saw another piece of meat between the small bag, he quickly ate it.

The "click" sound of the ringer is unique, and if you say something like "well done" in words, different breeders have different accents and may even have dialects, which can confuse the animals.

The "click" sound of the clicker is a uniform calibration signal, which can reduce the confusion of the animal and shorten the learning time.

In this way, the target is a little coquettish, and at the same time "clicks", and then feeds a piece of meat.

Jiaojiao keeps eating meat!

After doing 10 rounds, Xiaobao saw that Jiaojiao was doing well, and thought to himself: "Why don't you try to go further?" ”

I placed the target stick a little higher on Jiaojiao's head.

The original goal was to get the animal to associate the target stick with the food.

The next step is to move the target stick a few centimeters away, if the animal is thinking, take the initiative to touch the target stick, and immediately "click" when it comes into contact, it means that you have done it right!

If you do it right, you will be rewarded with food to eat.

Jiaojiao looked at him, and her eyes became a little unkind.

She's very smart!

I immediately understood the meaning of the target bar.

But the little breeder, with such a little food, actually wants to command himself?

Instead, he walked into the distance and lay down.

Rebel!

Xiaobao was a little panicked: "Eh, Jiaojiao, don't go!" Let's consolidate the results of the previous step! ”

It's good to say, Jiaojiao just sleeps with her eyes closed on her stomach, and she doesn't want to take care of him.

"Eh, I'm in a bit of a hurry."

Xiaobao was depressed and scratched his head.

However, he also knows that when animals are first trained, there will be all kinds of problems.

You can only patiently cultivate tacit understanding.

The process of training is also a process of building trust.

……

In fact, the training of the tiger has been quite smooth!

In the back house of the lion hall, Xiao Li is also training lions.

Qiqi started training, and he didn't look down on the small piece of meat that Xiao Li took out.

After eating the meat, his eyes widened in anger, and he angrily slapped the railing with his paws, and roared loudly: "Roar! ”

NMD, what is this thing! I usually eat meat in large pieces, how dare you give me such a small piece of meat! Teasing me?

Very emotional.

The first step could not be carried out.

Swap for Kaka.

Kaka just started eating a few pieces of meat, looked at the target stick in Xiao Li's hand, listened to the sound of "click", and suddenly retched.

Xiao Li was stunned for a while, why did he suddenly vomit? Is there a problem with the meat given?

No way, this is the meat I just purchased the other day.

Even if it is spoiled, lions can eat a little scavenging.

With a "click", Kaka retched again, and then suddenly started! Pulled a lump of poop on the ground.

A look of disgust.

"Ah......h

Xiao Li can see that Kaka only wants to eat meat and doesn't want to train!

Training on its own makes it very disgusted, expressing its displeasure with vomiting and defecation.

Xiao Li wanted to sigh a little, but in his mind, Fang Ye's speech came to mind: "The process of animal training will not be smooth sailing. Whatever the reason, the keeper should not be frustrated, discouraged, or take out his emotions on the animal, regardless of the reason. ”

calmed down, smiled and said, "Kaka, you're so disgusted, we won't train today." Adjust your status and come back tomorrow. ”

Lions and tigers are the beasts that need to be trained the most, and it is more difficult to train.

There are a large number of macaques, and they also need to be trained, but in different ways.

It is too cumbersome to train one by one like this, and what is needed is the deterrence of the individual breeder.

Lu Jiamu has many years of experience in raising and caring for macaques, and although these new macaques are completely unfamiliar with the keepers, they have learned that he is not a person to be messed with after a week or two.

When Lu Jiamu was fed food, he would also run to the periphery in a fight, and he would scold him and scold him.

When a few apprentices led by Lu Jiamu came into contact with macaques, they would be teased by them.

Puzzled, he asked, and got a very simple answer: "Aura!" ”

"Aura?"

"That's right, the way you look at the macaques, the way you walk, and the tone and voice they talk to are all combined to be your aura. Macaques are very intelligent animals, and they know if you are pretending to be confident or really confident. ”

The apprentices can only sigh that the master's realm is too profound!

If you want to have a master, you may have to raise macaques for a few years.
