Chapter 541: Hunting Training
The lantern ran back to the inner house with a smoke.
Fang Ye introduced rabbits and also communicated a lot with Qi Yuan.
Although the rabbit has a fierce expression - it is indeed quite fierce, and it will hit people at every turn, but it is also a timid and sensitive animal.
If you are exposed to the sight of tourists for a long time and are subjected to visual stress, it is likely to cause physical and psychological diseases.
In the activity field, there are rocks, plants, and various shelters that serve as visual barriers.
With these shelters, it is a good way to relieve the pressure on visitors' sights, so that they can show their natural behavior when they are happy.
If the rabbit still feels nervous to be stared at, you can go back to the inner house to stay, and there are all kinds of cat toys such as balls and cat climbing frames, and you can move freely inside. When you get bored in the inner house, you can come out and play.
Like the Red Panda Pavilion, between the inner house and the activity field, the rabbits can come and go at will.
The tourists ran back angrily when they saw the Lantern Festival, looked at its back, and sighed with some regret!
"Oh, I haven't seen enough!"
"The bunny is so cute! Chubby. ”
"Fierce and cute! Fierce and cute. ”
"My grandma's cat is so fat! But it's really fat, and the rabbit is fat. ”
Then he moved his gaze to the other rabbit in the activity field.
The Great Sage lay on the grass, staring at the blades of grass that were blown by the wind not far away, and his tail suddenly trembled slightly twice as if he had been electrocuted.
Raising his head, his eyes staring at the blades of grass intently, as if he felt that there was prey inside!
The body is motionless, and the gaze is incomparable.
After looking at it for a long time, he found that he was just being blown by the wind, so he suddenly relaxed, stepped out of his little fat legs, and walked towards a rock next to him with his body swaying.
Coming to Linhai Zoo for a while, the Great Sage felt that the environment here was still okay!
The gray stone rock walls and dense grass make it feel like home.
And the space of the event field is also much larger.
The body crouched down, and with a "whoosh", jumped onto the rock, and then jumped onto the tree trunk perch next to it.
Although there are no trees in the highland meadows where they live, rabbits are cats after all, and they still have the habit of climbing trees in their genes.
To provide them with trees, rabbits still like to climb, jumping up and down, very flexible.
Walking on the sloping trunk of the tree, I felt that the bark felt good and stopped.
Lie on it, paws in front of you, and scratch at the bark!
The two chubby paws stand up together, just the same as the broad square face, honest and cute.
Compared with other cats scratching the cat scratching board, the rabbit is much faster, just lifting and falling, like a human code word typing the keyboard.
Those who know understand that this is grinding their claws, and those who don't know think they are massaging the trunk of a tree.
And the general cat scratches the cat scratching board, it is a feeling of excitement and playing, the big sage grabs the trunk of the tree, and the big fat face is expressionless, and even a little unhappy.
In fact, it can be seen from the movements of the body that it is still very comfortable, but the rabbit is born with a serious face, and the expression changes are very subtle.
Scratching the trunk of the tree, the long hair on the chest trembled slightly with the movement!
Squinted his eyes deeply, well, not bad, not bad!
Tourists were amused by its appearance: "Hahahaha, this tree is a bit hot!" ”
"This guy looks so stupid!"
"It's a walking meme."
"Why do ordinary cats look like elves, elegant and agile, this rabbit is obviously also a feline, why is it so simple."
"Because it's wide, and it doesn't have a neck! The ears are also very inconspicuous, other cats have pointed ears, and their ears are on the top of the head, and they are relatively far apart. ”
"I think it's cute!"
After grinding his claws, the Great Sage turned his head to look at the tourist.
The body is motionless, and the round eyes are unblinking, and it looks dull.
Suddenly regained his senses, licked his tongue, turned around, and walked slowly back to the inner house.
"Ahhhh
The tourists waited for a while and did not see it, and dispersed with some regret.
There are also people who are reluctant to leave, and want to wait for the rabbit to come out again, so they stay here, and by the way, look at the popular science display board about the rabbit on the wall.
Liu Xueqing smiled at Ying Ying and said, "Let's go, it's almost time to shop, let's go back?" ”
Yingying: "Yes! ”
I saw a lot of new animals today.
Pelicans with big beaks, beautiful swans and mandarin ducks, chubby rabbits.
I thought to myself, and when I got home, I would take a colored pen and draw all these animals.
……
A new exhibit at the zoo has opened, and visitors are having a lot of fun!
In the past two days, in addition to going to the new exhibition area to see the state of the animals and the reactions of tourists, there is also an important thing, which is to go to the rescue center and pay attention to the owls that are about to be released.
The owl cubs rescued by the rescue center have been rescued for more than a month, and the largest batch has been able to master flying, and it is time to live independently!
The last important lesson before releasing them is to teach them how to hunt.
At first, the owls were fed dead mice with intact carcasses so that they could understand that this was their own food, in their own recipes.
Then the mice are tied on a leash to limit their range of motion for the owl to catch.
Let them know that the dead can eat it, and of course the living can eat it.
But you need to kill it yourself.
This one is relatively simple, and after a few days of training, most owls will eat the rats on a leash.
Finally, they are sent to the "Mickey Bad House" to exercise their hunting ability in the wild.
After all, prey in the wild is not a stupid dead target, they can hide and run.
Five or six small collared horned owls, standing on a high perch during the day, closed their eyes and resting their minds.
When night falls, the rats come out for activity, and this is also the time when these little collared horned owls should attack.
Fang Ye, Blue Carp, and Lin Ying, the staff of the rescue center, have also come to stay quietly not far away at night these days, and use night vision devices to see the hunting situation of the little collared horned owl.
After the first night, although the traces of rat activity could be seen through the night vision devices, these little collared horned owls did not mean to catch mice.
It is also expected, how can rewilding training be so simple.
When these little collared horned owls are hungry, they may be instinctively driven to hunt.
It's the third day that they have not been fed and let them in!
As night fell, the sky gradually darkened, and the surroundings were very quiet.
Only the occasional owl call could be heard, echoing in the dark night.
"Hmm~~"
The collared horned owl has a long cry and a delicate voice.
Fang Ye and the others all moved a small bench and sat behind the bushes, holding a night vision device in their hands, looking into the cage.
The blue carp whispered, "I don't know if I can succeed tonight?" ”
