27. a camera
【Primeval Forest】
After leaving the river, the tiger mother did not stop by the way to go back to the tiger's den, but let out a low roar and motioned for the two tiger cubs to follow her, and she wanted to take the tiger cubs to patrol the territory.
Of course, they also need to change their place of residence.
Lin Qian and Courage followed suit, the two tiger cubs were very excited, and they were naturally happy to be able to play outside.
However, Lin Qian is still relatively vigilant, there are many dangers hidden in the jungle, even the tiger mother can't be completely guarded, and she just met the Far Eastern leopard.
If there is a beast on the road, it is very likely that the tiger mother will not be able to rescue him.
Courage obviously doesn't know the danger, and it can't be leisurely all the way, and he ran out of the tiger mother's sight several times.
The angry tiger mother roared again and again, and Lin Qian had to watch it tightly.
Courage was a little unhappy, but he was obedient, and although he was unhappy, he still followed his brother and mother all the way, and did not run around anymore.
The brother followed his mother's side, walking with his head upright and his chest up, and his momentum was very strong.
There are many things in the forest, all kinds of birds and insects are chirping one after another, and all kinds of sounds are like waves one after another, and it is very lively.
The weeds and flowers in summer compete with each other, and they are delicate and lush.
Floral, vanilla, earthy, all kinds of flavors are mixed together and captured by the tiger's keen sense of smell.
Along the way, Lin Qian was dazzled, and he exclaimed in his heart that he had seen a long time.
The courageous and curious eyes wandered all the way, and they were obviously dazzled by the scenery of the forest.
The two tiger cubs followed the tiger mother all the way to inspect the territory, and on the way of the three tigers of the family, all kinds of birds and beasts fled in the wind, for fear that they would fall into the tiger's mouth.
Looking at the fleeing animals, Lin Qian was a little surprised.
Are there so many animals in the primeval forest?
He had never been to a primeval forest before, not even a deeper forest, but he probably knew what it was like in the modern wild.
The number of wild animals is decreasing every year, and the slogan of protecting wildlife is by no means casual rhetoric.
The territory of the Siberian tiger is notoriously barren, and it is for this reason that the territory of the Siberian tiger is much larger than that of other tiger species.
But in this situation, it doesn't look like barrenness, does it?
Along the way, I met no less than fifteen hares, and each one was very fat!
Lin Qian felt very strange, but he couldn't think of the problem.
After walking for about four kilometers, the tiger mother stopped under a big tree.
Lin Qian, who was still distracted, bumped into the tiger mother's leg, shook his little head, and came back to his senses.
"Whoa~" Courage leaned over and roared, obviously laughing at his brother's distraction.
Lin Qian glanced at it, naïve!
Courage snorted with his little head held high, as if to say: I'm still young, it's normal to be naïve!
Seeing the tiger mother stop, Lin Qian was a little puzzled, is there anything special about this big tree?
As soon as the little tiger looked up, he saw a square black box between the branches.
Tiger's eye shrinks, which is ...... It's the camera!
Lin Qian looked at the black box tied to the trunk of the tree in shock, his pale yellow hair gently rippling in the breeze, but his heart was turbulent.
Seeing the traces of human civilization again, Lin Qian's mood was obviously extremely uneasy.
Although these days he has been brainwashing himself and allowing himself to accept the life of a tiger.
But he's a man after all!
After being excited and shocked, Lin Qian quickly lowered his head and sighed silently.
He's just a tiger cub now, and he shouldn't behave in a special way, and getting the attention of humans is definitely not a good thing for him.
Although he has some nostalgia for human life, Lin Qian is not a fool, he knows the nature of human beings.
Since there are cameras here, it's probably some kind of sanctuary, so it's no wonder there are so many animals here.
Maybe there's a reason why humans put it on a regular basis.
This is good news for Lin Qian, at least, he can prove that he is still in modern times, and his living environment is also a little guaranteed, so he doesn't have to worry too much about poaching and lack of food.
Just don't know where this is a protected area.
Well, since it's a protected area, does that mean he doesn't have to be afraid of misery in his old age?
Don't look at the fierce batch of tigers, but the old age is very miserable. The body is decayed, and the physical strength is reduced, and it is easy to be reduced to the ration of other beasts.
Lin Qian's body shook, he didn't want to end up like that!
When he was old and his physical strength declined, he went to the personnel of the reserve and tried to send himself to the zoo for retirement!
No matter how bad it is, the reserve will pay a little attention to him and feed him occasionally, so that he won't starve to death, right?
After regaining his composure, Lin Qian bypassed the camera area and looked at the black box again.
It seems that the personnel in this protected area are just ordinary routine observations of wild animals, and this kind of camera he has seen when watching documentaries, can only take pictures, not the kind that is always taken.
This camera has a bio-capture function, which only activates when a creature passes in front of it, and the rest of the time it is in standby mode, and it is said to work for a long time.
After determining the function of the camera, Lin Qian breathed a sigh of relief, taking pictures is much better than taking pictures, at least he doesn't have to worry about being accidentally exposed.
But there's a black box here, and there's definitely one in other places!
It seems that he has to pay more attention, and he has to walk around the territory area with the tiger mother more!
Thinking of this, Lin Qian thought of the tiger mother.
I saw that the tiger mother was scratching on the trunk of the big tree at this time, as if she was making a mark?
Lin Qian knew that tigers would mark the edge of their territory, but it was still very rare to see it with his own eyes.
As long as the female tiger is not in the breeding period, she will regularly urinate on the edge of the territory, scratching, and leaving a scent, which is used to swear sovereignty and maintain the integrity of the territory.
The tiger's urine contains special pheromones and hormones that can transmit information, and the taste is particularly strong and can last up to 3 weeks.
It seems that this big tree is the object of constant care of the tiger mother, otherwise humans would not have left a machine for observation here.
If there is an alien male tiger approaching, then you can know the basic information of the owner of the area from the marking information left by the tiger mother.
For female tigers who are raising offspring, the alien male tiger will first test and then decide whether to attack, kill the tiger cub, and include the female tiger in his harem.
Most males are extremely ferocious to cubs that are not their offspring, and they will not hesitate to kill the offspring of other males if they meet.
Because as long as the cubs are alive, the female will refuse to mate.
In order to perpetuate their genes, the male tiger can do anything cruel.
But the saying "tiger poison does not eat children" is true, and male tigers take great care of their own children.
Although from a human point of view, the male tiger is an out-and-out scumbag. But as fathers, they are still more loving.
Of course, this is not absolute, each tiger has different natures and will behave differently.
