Chapter 745: Cloud Delivery
August.
The clouds showed signs of hunger strike, restlessness and rubbing against the wall, and the keeper judged that it had entered the final waiting period, and it was a real pregnancy and not a fake pregnancy!
Fang Ye used to pet the clouds and comfort them a few times, the keeper kept an eye on the monitoring of the clouds room late at night, and the veterinarian was also on standby at any time.
Don't eat bamboo, put some cardboard boxes for Yunduo, so that it can tear and bite when it is uncomfortable, and vent.
This one is quite useful!
After the clouds finished tearing the cardboard box, they seemed to calm down a little.
However, in the evening, it showed abnormality again.
Leaning against the wall and not moving, just looking at it from the monitor made me feel very painful.
I guess it's about to give birth!
Although the clouds were very uncomfortable, they couldn't help with giving birth to a child, so they could only pray silently, and their hearts were a little heavy.
This is the first time Yunduo has given birth, and I don't know if I can make it.
At first, leaning against the wall, mouth open, stomach together and taking deep breaths.
Later, he changed his position again, lying on his back on the ground, his body dangling, as if he was trying to exert himself.
After hours of torment, the panda cub was finally born!
Two pink and tender cubs fell from under the buttocks, looking like little mice, and let out a high-pitched and loud cry as soon as they fell to the ground.
And Yun Duo immediately got up quickly, trying to pick up the cub and put it on his belly.
The cubs need to rely on their mother's body temperature and licking to survive, although the first time they give birth, there is no one to teach, but this operation is imprinted in the genetic instinct, and it is understood without a teacher.
Placing the cub on the belly, the cloud finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense body relaxed, opening its mouth wide and panting for air.
Hold the cub in your arms, lick the cub gently, and after tearing off the placenta, gently close your eyes.
The clouds used a lot of physical strength to produce, and they were also tired at this time.
Fang Ye and the keepers who stayed up late were all excited to see the cubs born safely!
Even quite a few people shed tears.
Fang Ye wanted to appease the clouds, but he was afraid of disturbing its rest, so he ran to the strong cage.
Zhuang Zhuang didn't sleep at night, "chirp" gnawed bamboo.
Panda cubs have very loud voices so that they don't go unnoticed by parents who are nearsighted.
Although Zhuang Zhuang and Yun Duo's dormitory were quite far apart, but the night was so quiet, the cub's cry was clearer, and it was estimated that Zhuang Zhuang could vaguely hear something.
Fang Ye beckoned to Zhuang Zhuang, saw Zhuang Zhuang coming over, staring at him with shining eyes, touching its nose, and said with a smile: "Zhuang Zhuang, eh, you know that you are a father?" ”
Zhuang Zhuang tilted his head and hugged the railing, indicating that he didn't know anything.
For pandas, there is only a mother without the concept of a father, and the cubs are raised by the mother alone.
……
The newborn panda cub has a pink and tender body with a layer of fluffy white hair.
The tail is small and pointed, and it wags occasionally.
That's right, newborn panda cubs have elongated tails!
However, the development of the tail is not as fast as the body at all, and it slowly becomes shorter, and finally becomes a small pom-pom, which is very inconspicuous.
The cubs grow very quickly, and after about ten days, the black and white colors on their bodies become distinct.
At 20 days, the body length is already about the same as an adult's forearm, and at this time, there is no need to stay in Ma Ma's arms all the time, or maintain body temperature in the nursery box, and can be placed outside.
Zoo fans know that panda cubs are born and have been looking forward to seeing them!
So I'm also going to give them a live broadcast.
The news was released, and as soon as the live broadcast started, many netizens who couldn't wait poured into the live broadcast room.
"It's coming, it's coming!"
"Come and see the panda!"
"The cub doesn't know what it looks like now?"
Fang Ye smiled: "This time, let's go and steal the cubs of the clouds!"
Panda breeding is difficult, not only in mating, but also in raising young, especially for giant pandas that give birth to twins.
Because of lack of milk or limited energy, panda mothers generally choose one to raise, and the other one is abandoned.
In captivity, it is necessary to manually assist in the rearing of the young.
Usually we will 'steal' the cubs through food temptation, and let the panda Ma Ma take turns raising the two cubs. ”
Netizens immediately became excited.
"And this kind of operation?"
"Sounds like fun!"
The keeper next to him has already prepared the food.
There's apples, there's a pot of milk!
Depending on which one the cloud prefers, sometimes the food may not be able to attract its interest, so change it to another.
"Let's go!" Fang Ye snapped his fingers, picked up the milk and went to the enclosure of the clouds, while preaching to netizens, "When the cubs are just born, the cub change operation is more frequent, and there can be 10 rotations a day. ”
Some netizens asked curiously: "The twin panda mothers can't take care of it, so do the only children still need to steal?" ”
Fang Ye said: "It's also needed!" The exchange of milk for panda cubs is not only to provide enough nutrition for the giant pandas, but also to give the cubs a physical examination, count their milk intake, measure their body temperature and weigh themselves, observe the color of the feces, and so on. ”
Yun Duo will sit on the edge of the wall with a ball in his arms!
He looked forward with a gentle expression, and the corners of his mouth were curled.
Seems to be smiling, my cub is so cute!
Occasionally lower your head and lick the ball in your arms with your tongue.
The little ball hummed and chirped, and the cloud's chin rubbed against it, and Jio was cocked, as if he was rubbing the soft and glutinous rice balls.
One was not hugged, and the cub rolled down the belly of the cloud from the side to the ground, and suddenly it was soft and round like a rice ball being boiled softly, leaking out black sesame filling!
At this time, I can't climb, and I can't open my eyes.
Falling to the ground, he suddenly turned his round head in confusion, raised his front paws, and pulled the floor.
"Ah~ah~~" screamed, as if shouting, Mom, I fell! Take a look!
Yun Duo heard the baby's cry, blinked his eyes twice, and tilted his head to look.
Hey, when did my cub fall?
Pick it up again and put it back on your stomach!
Now the cub was comfortable, and it turned into a small hum.
When netizens saw this scene, their hearts were almost melting!
"Ahhhh
"Yunduo was originally a quiet and well-behaved panda, but after becoming a mother, I feel more gentle!"
"Haha, if you want to say that the clouds are well-behaved, the trees in the zoo are the first to disagree!"
"It looks like it's laughing! Is it so happy to have children. ”
"It turns out that pandas are also holding children like this!"
"Big rice balls and small rice balls."
"The clouds are beautiful, and the cubs are also very cute!"
"Mom, I want to raise a baby!"
