The solemn head of the Great Sage turned and turned, and the end of his tail shook slightly as if he had been electrocuted.

Tourists can't help but laugh, the rabbit is so fun!

Not only is the expression very funny, but the whole body is full of drama.

Lin Hao saw the Great Sage lying there, looking very leisurely, and suddenly remembered a question.

In summer, the weather is starting to get hot, and the climate on the seaside is hot and humid, which can be said to be very different from the plateau.

Giant pandas, macaques and other animals can go into the water to bathe and cool down, how do rabbits cool down? Look at it in a state of ease, and it doesn't show signs of discomfort.

asked Daigo, Daigo scratched his head: "The rabbit should be moulted in summer, right?" It's not so hot when you change the hair. ”

A female tourist next to her heard this and said with a smile: "I heard the breeder say that the rabbit hall not only has air conditioning in the back house, but also has a cooling device installed in the activity field, which is hot outside and cool inside, and the rabbit is very comfortable to stay, and there is also an ultraviolet sterilization device!" ”

"That's it!"

Listening to the tourist's understanding very well, Daigo talked a few words.

It turned out that the female tourist was a rabbit raccoon fan, and she had to go to Xiye to see the rabbit raccoon every holiday, but unfortunately it was too far away.

Now there are rabbits on the Linhai side, and she lives in the nearby Blue River City, so it is a lot more convenient to come and see the rabbits. I waited for an hour or two at the rabbit hall just to watch the rabbit come out of the back house for a while and take a few photos.

Speaking of rabbits, there is a smile on his face. Constantly praise the environment of the pavilion here, and full of praise for the waterfront zoo!

……

After visiting the rabbits, Lin Hao and the others went down to the elephant hall and slipped away.

On the route to the elephant house, a cornfield was planted!

Corn was planted along with rice, and now it is more than May, and it is already growing vigorously.

A large patch of green corn stood straight in the field, and the broad leaves stretched out, blown by the wind, brushed and rattled, like a green ocean wave, which looked very pleasant.

In front of the corn field is a meandering river, and the warm golden sunlight shines in the river, sparkling and sparkling, and the breeze brings a fresh breath and blows on people's faces.

There is a two-story bamboo building with Dai characteristics behind the corn field, and there seem to be a few strings of bacon hanging under the eaves of the balcony on the second floor, and some green trees are planted next to it that are about the same height as the bamboo building, which is poetic and full of local flavor.

Looking at such a beautiful scene like a paradise, it makes people feel in a trance, as if unconsciously, they came to the abode of some hermit master, ploughing the fields at sunrise every day, and drinking to the moon by the river at sunset!

Lin Hao walked from this side for the first time, and said in surprise: "Yo, when did you plant the corn?" ”

Daigo said: "Yes, in addition to the rice field next to the alpaca, there is also a corn field here. ”

Some longing: "I really want to taste what it tastes like when it is ripe, and this is also organic corn without pesticides!" The taste is definitely good. I have eaten the organic potatoes grown by the director in the panda restaurant before, and the taste is really irresistible. With a delicious bamboo shoot soup, the gods are hard to beat. ”

Lily said, "Magic, the director has cast a spell!" ”

Dawu smiled: "Great druid, you have a hand in cultivating crops!" ”

There is also a sign at the entrance of the path from the farmland to the bamboo building, the Elephant Observation Hut.

Lin Hao couldn't wait to say, "Let's go, let's go over and have a look!" ”

Walking through the cornfield and walking on the trail, you can reach out and touch the green corn leaves on both sides, which is really immersive.

Climb the stairs to the second floor of the bamboo house.

From the balcony, you can clearly see the elephants moving in the activity field!

There is an arch-like building in the playground, and water flows down from above like a waterfall.

Landing in the wide pool below, a white splash of water was made.

It would be playing happily in the water, and the gray skin was stained with a layer of water, shining in the sun, as if it had been coated with sunscreen.

After taking a few steps forward, his entire body was underwater.

Although I can't see what Ping Ping is doing in the water, you can imagine how it happily shakes its head and makes waves with its huge body when you look at the waves on the water!

Tourists watched the elephants play in the water and let out bursts of delight and exclamations.

The elephant dives completely into the water and does not have to worry about choking on the water, because there is a "valve" in the trunk that can be closed when absorbing water.

Got up in the pool, went out for a run and ran back again.

Meiling, Meilan, and Bobo are also soaking in the pool!

A herd of elephants was bathing, and Bobo lay directly on his side in the water, looking very comfortable.

In the summer, when it's hot, it's a lot of fun to take a dip and play in the water, and tourists are happy with them.

Daigo smiled and took two photos: "It's really not poking!" ”

Lin Hao was on the balcony, looked at the scenery of the elephants playing in the water, and walked around the elephant observation hut.

The Elephant Hut, not only a place to visit, but also a small exhibition hall, with a science display sign hanging on the wall and a yellowing white ivory more than two meters long on the table.

The huge ivory is eye-catching at first glance!

Some children are curiously reaching out and touching them.

The ivory was not covered with a hood, and was marked below: "This ivory is a model." ”

Lin Hao walked over and subconsciously touched the ivory to feel it.

The sign next to it is dedicated to ivory.

"What can an elephant do with its tusks?"

Lin Hao guessed in his heart: "I must be able to help the elephant fight." ”

Looking down, there are quite a few functions for developing teeth!

Elephants can dig through the sand with their long tusks to get the salt minerals in the soil, or to find groundwater during the dry season.

In times of severe drought, when surface water such as rivers dry up, elephants can dig a hole of several meters with their tusks and wait for groundwater to slowly seep out of the sand. This burrowing to obtain groundwater is very useful for elephants to survive the dry season, and other animals will gather around the cave to drink after the elephants have finished drinking water. If elephants become extinct, many animals may not survive the dry season.

Ivory can also be used to break branches and peel bark with one side of the tusk, and elephants also have their own habitual tusks, which is equivalent to human left-handed and right-handed.

It can also help the male elephant gain the heart of the female elephant.

Well, it's too short-sighted to think for yourself!

Lin Hao continued to look at the exhibition board, and the next content was a little heavy.

More and more elephants, now no longer have tusks.

In the absence of poaching, only 2%-4% of female African elephants do not grow tusks.

However, because of poaching, elephants with beautiful tusks are brutally hunted, and the tusks of male elephants are generally larger and heavier than those of female elephants, so they bear the brunt of poachers.

When the bull elephants were killed in large numbers, poachers targeted the female elephants, and the female elephants with tusks were killed, and the ivory ones escaped, and slowly gave birth to more ivory offspring. The same is true for Asian elephants, where elephants with tusks may be caught for work, and it is even more common if they do not have tusks.
