Chapter 630: Loving Grandpa and Grandma

Fan Peng said: "This population has been completely isolated from other populations, we have studied and investigated in the past ten years, no gibbons have moved to this population, and the female apes are still single, and now they are relatively old, they should be twenty years old."

Because gibbons only live for 20 to 30 years, if they don't find a mate, they may die alone in a few years, so we see her always staying alone in the trees, looking sadly into the distance. ”

It feels sad to think about!

Every day, listening to the chorus of my brother and sister-in-law next to me, I love and love Qin Se and Ming, and the children can sing along with them.

With a longing for love, he will also chirp into the distance every day, waiting for the "white-eyed prince" in his heart to appear and sing a love song to her affectionately.

From a young girl, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting until the youth is gone, gradually getting old, and there is no hope for the person in her dreams, and even the song of the gibbon echoing in the forest every day is becoming less and less.

Regardless of the ethical issues of science, it is difficult to maintain an attitude of non-interference.

Fang Ye was curious: "By the way, what about the other male ape that is going to pair it?" ”

Fan Peng said: "The other male ape is the child of Grandpa Grandma!"

Grandpa and Grandma are gibbons that we rarely name, because they have always been called numbered and they are older, so they have this name. ”

Speaking of Ah Gong and Grandma, the interest is much higher, and they talk about their interesting stories.

Li Xing had known these stories for a long time, and drank them deliciously on the side with rice wine.

The two gibbons are very affectionate, and every day Grandpa will groom Grandma.

Gibbons, unlike other primates, follow a monogamous system, and usually comb the females when they are groomed, just as human males comb women's hair.

Grandma's eyes are not good, she may have been injured before, her left eye can only squint into a slit to see things, she should be much older than Ah Gong, and Ah Gong's finger is also broken.

However, it does not affect their affection at all, and they can eat all-you-can-eat dog food every day when they are tracked by researchers.

Living in the forest, it is inevitable to grab food with other animals, and I have seen several encounters with red pandas on a narrow road.

Once when he swung to the black plum bush occupied by the red panda, Ah Gong swung over, and Grandma was surrounded by two red pandas in the middle of a dilemma, and her eyebrows were squeezed into embarrassment.

After a few days, I found a dense clump of parasitic plants in the tree, and felt that I could find insects to eat inside, Grandma rushed over and found that there was a red panda lying inside, and she was about to leave, but she may still be haunted by the events of the previous day, and reached out and pulled the red panda's tail.

However, the red panda is still very calm, let Grandma pull it a few times, her eyes are dripping and rolling, but she doesn't move the nest, and Grandma has to go away.

There is also Ah Gong and Grandma working together to besiege the red panda and snatch a mountain orange from the bushes where it stays.

In addition to a stable and happy daily life, sometimes there are some frightenings.

Once, a forest eagle flew by from a high altitude, startled Grandma, shrunk into a ball with a loud scream, woke up the sleeping grandfather in a daze, combed her hair for a while, and Grandma fell asleep peacefully.

Other gibbons invaded the territory, Ah Gong went out to fight, Grandma was so anxious on the tree that she was spinning around, screaming loudly, knowing that Ah Gong was stepping on a thin bamboo pole and rushing back, so he settled down.

In Fang Ye's mind, a scene couldn't help but appear.

Grandma ran to Grandma with open arms after returning from victory, and when Grandma saw Grandpa, she immediately stopped screaming, and the two gibbons sat down hand in hand and leaned on each other.

Such a warm and touching, mutual love should be rare in the animal kingdom.

Fan Peng added: "In fact, for gibbons, this kind of small fright is very normal, and they are more calm, and what frightens them the most is human activities. ”

After a lot of research in the field over the years, they found that the planting gibbons of grass fruit also have a certain adaptation, which is manifested in the increased time of foraging, eating more leaves when there is less food, spending more time eating, less time resting, and sleeping later.

The extent of this effect is not enough to reach the point of extinction, but as people grow grass and fruit into the forest, the frequent sound of motor motors and bell bells of pack horses during the harvest season, and some people may bring dogs into the forest, and dogs chase animals and bark, which will seriously disturb the gibbons.

At such times, Grandpa and Grandma would not want to eat all day, stay in the high canopy, and keep staring in the direction where the noise came from.

This may also be the reason for their fertility rate, which is much lower than that of gibbons in other regions.

Speaking of which, Ah Gong and Grandma have two children, both of whom have grown up and become independent.

One male ape has already got married, and the other male ape is still single, this time to help match the single female ape with the children of the grandfather and grandmother.

Fang Ye sighed: "This is not only human beings worried about marriage, but gibbons are even more worried!" ”

Fan Peng smiled: "Haha, it's not, the old couple is now at their age, and it is estimated that they have no other pursuits, so they are looking forward to the child being able to start a family." ”

After chatting, Fang Ye sent the two to the gate of the zoo: "Feel free to find me if you have anything!" Waiting for your good news! ”

Fan Peng and Li Xing waved their hands, got into the car and left.

Fang Ye turned around and told the story of the gibbon to the blue carp, and the blue carp cried profusely!

"How pitiful a single she-ape!"

With teary eyes, he said, "Can two gibbons hold hands successfully?" ”

Fang Ye comforted gently: "Yes!" ”

……

Go live!

"First!"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

"Principal, I want to see your red panda cubs! Ahh ”

"Panda cubs?"

"It's not a panda, it's a red panda! Some time ago, there was an article on the public account.,Didn't you read it?,It's very cute.。 ”

"Speaking of which, last time I looked at the director of the zoo and their red panda cubs, I wanted to search for photos of red panda cubs, but the search was full of giant panda cubs, and the current media is really popular."

"If it weren't for the director's live broadcast, I probably wouldn't have known that there was an animal called a red panda......"

Netizens posted barrages, and the live broadcast room quickly became lively.

Fang Ye smiled: "I'll take everyone to see it later!" ”

The red panda has grown to a week old now, and the red bean is in a slightly more stable mood, and as a person close to and trusted by the red bean, it is okay to disturb it a little.

The little raccoon has recently learned to climb trees under the leadership of the mother raccoon, and today is ready to take netizens to see their growth and see other animals.
