Chapter 235 Settlement of Brazilian tortoise and leopard tortoise

Lynx (scientific name: lynx) belongs to the cat family. It is like a cat but much larger than a cat. It is stout and has a very short tail. Usually, its head is less than 1/4 of its body length.

The limbs are long and strong.There are black tufts on the tips of the ears.The cheeks have drooping long hairs.

The upper body is light brown, khaki brown, light gray brown or hemp brown, and the abdomen is light white, yellowish white or sandy yellow.The tail is black.National secondary protected animals.It looks like a wolf, also known as a wolf cat.

Lynx is a cold-loving animal, basically a product of the cold regions of the northern temperate zone.

But they are distributed in various environments such as sub-frigid coniferous forest, cold temperate coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest to alpine meadow, alpine steppe, and alpine shrub steppe.

Lynx cubs are about the same size as domestic cat cubs and look very similar.

There are also lynxes in the Lingnan Reserve, so the staff didn't ask too many questions.

After handing over the little lynx to the staff, Xiang Tian found two slightly larger glass boxes and prepared to raise the two tortoises.

The Brazilian red-eared turtle, commonly known as the Brazilian tortoise, is a subspecies of the Brazilian tortoise.

The adult is oblong, the carapace is gently raised, the ridge is obvious, and the rear edge is serrated.The head is broad, the snout is blunt, and there are yellow and green vertical stripes on the head and neck, and there is a long strip of red plaque on each side behind the eyes.

The Brazilian red-eared turtle has a lively temperament, which is more active and active than any freshwater turtle produced in China.

It responds sensitively to water sound and vibration. Once it is frightened, it will dive into the water. The optimum temperature is 20-32°C, hibernation below 11°C, and deep hibernation below 6°C.It is an omnivorous animal, mostly carnivorous.

Brazilian red-eared turtles are not all distributed in Brazil, but are produced in some countries along the Sisippi River in the United States and Central America.Huaxia was introduced in 1987 and was bred in large quantities, and now it can be found in natural water bodies everywhere.

Due to its strong adaptability and fast reproduction, the Brazilian red-eared turtle is a world-recognized ecological killer. It has been listed as one of more than 100 most destructive species by the World Environmental Protection Organization, and many countries have listed it as a dangerous alien species. One of the invasive species.

Because the Brazilian tortoise has strong vitality, it is very good to keep it as a pet.

It's just that the Brazilian turtle cannot be released, otherwise it will cause damage to the natural environment.

Xiang Tian first cleaned the glassware and poured a little mountain spring water.

Then spread the glass box with some stones and sand.

Because Brazilian turtles are aquatic turtles, they prefer water, but they will occasionally climb out of the water.

So Xiang Tian deliberately raised one side of the bottom of the glass box to let the Brazilian turtle rest in the sun.

When it was early morning, Xiang Tian put the tortoise into the glass box and planned to do it again tomorrow.

The next morning, Xiang Tian woke up, got up to wash up, went to the cafeteria to have breakfast, took some pork and cabbage, and went back to the dormitory.

In the room, Xiang Tian placed the Brazilian turtle on the window sill, basking lazily under a ray of sunlight.

Xiang Tian lifted the drone into the sky and started today's live broadcast.

This lottery tortoise, whose scientific name is leopard tortoise, is a reptile of the chordate phylum.Also known as the leopard tortoise, it belongs to the order Turtle and Tortoiseidae.The carapace can be up to 68 cm long, the head and neck are yellowish-brown without spots, the forehead scales are 1-2, the top scales are several small scales, the carapace is variegated with matching shades, 2 axillary scutes, 1 crotch scute, and the thigh The shields meet.Male leopard tortoises are larger than females.

The habitat of leopard tortoises is dry grasslands and bushes, and they need a wide space for indoor and outdoor activities.

They like to live on semi-dry grasslands with thorns.In the hot season, it will aestivate; generally 12-15 years leopard tortoise will reach sexual maturity.Turtles are very capable of laying eggs, and some females can produce 3 or more broods in one season.

It has been artificially bred in large quantities and is completely vegetarian, but regular supplementation of calcium powder and multivitamins is required for family breeding.Leopard tortoises are mostly found in southern Africa.

Adopt a sluggish lifestyle during the cold season.But whether the weather is hot or cold, it will take refuge in the den of a jackal, fox or an ant bear.

Since it tends to live in grasslands, it's no surprise that it feeds on a wide variety of grasses that are widely distributed.Leopard tortoises like to eat leaves, fruits and fresh grass in the natural environment.Artificial breeding can be fed lettuce, stuffed cabbage, lettuce, watermelon, squash, etc. Leopard turtles like high temperature, and generally the most suitable growth temperature is 25~32°C.

Since it is now winter in Lingnan, the temperature is only a few degrees or even more than ten degrees.

So the tortoise moved very slowly, almost motionless.

Xiang Tian found hay and soil and made a nest for the leopard turtle.

Since Lingnan is now in winter and the temperature changes greatly, Xiang Tian finally put both tortoises into the animal breeding base.

"Mr. Xiang, are you raising the leopard tortoise and the Brazilian tortoise?"

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Xiang has a soft spot for turtles!!"

The staff in the breeding base laughed.

While Xiang Tian was chatting with several staff members, Yin Nan called.

"Xiang Tian, ​​come to the panda breeding area immediately. The panda I borrowed from Bashu Zoo for breeding has arrived."

"Breeding panda??"

"The person to introduce to Hanhan."

"Okay, come right away!!"

Xiang Tian hung up the phone and immediately walked towards the panda breeding area.
The panda breeding area covers a very large area, and now there are three pandas.

The first is Hanhan brought back by Xiang Tian from the wild, the second is Hanhan's girlfriend Tuantuan, and the third is the two giant pandas presented by Bashu.

However, since the two pandas presented by Bashu are still young, Hanhan, who is responsible for breeding tasks, has naturally become the focus of everyone's attention.

This time, Bashu specially presented another female giant panda, which was for Hanhan's second girlfriend.

Since giant pandas are in estrus from March to May, Xiang Tian discussed with Lao Yin to cultivate their relationship first.

That way it can be done naturally.
In the breeding area, Hanhan, the giant panda, has become much stronger.

Fat, compared with the appearance of just entering the reserve before, it is completely turned upside down.

Now Hanhan's hair is shiny and clean.

At this time, he was eating leisurely with a bamboo shoot in his hand.

Hearing the sound of someone approaching, he hurriedly bit the bamboo shoot in his mouth.

A pair of panda eyes was darting around, and that look amused many viewers in the live broadcast room.

"Oh, this giant panda is so cute!!!"

"Is this giant panda male or female? Didn't the anchor just say to introduce someone to it?"

"What's the introduction? It's clear that you treat her like a reproductive machine!!!"

"However, it seems that the reproductive rate of giant pandas is extremely low, and there is only one per litter."

"Look, staff, another giant panda is coming"

While the drone was hovering in mid-air to take pictures of the giant panda Hanhan, Lao Yinzheng and several staff members walked over with a cart pushing a big iron cage.

A look into the iron cage, isn't it just a strong giant panda.

"Old Yin!!!" Xiang Tian shouted to Yin Nan not far away.

"Wait a minute, I'll put this female giant panda in first, and see if they can get along harmoniously." Yin Nan shouted.

With a click, the big iron gate where Hanhan lived was slowly opened, and a strong female giant panda was let in.

According to Lao Yin, this giant panda comes from a zoo in Bashu, and its name is Qingqing.

"Friends in the audience in the live broadcast room, this giant panda is our blind date partner, Qingqing, it is a six-year-old healthy giant panda."

Xiang Tian began to introduce.

"Hahaha, is it really a blind date scene???"

"Then we Hanhan's loyal fans, we must check on Hanhan."

"This female giant panda is so beautiful, it's about the same size as Tuantuan, right? Is this Qingqing dating us naively?"

"What about Tuantuan? The real version, a scumbag."

"I'm not even as good as a panda"

"Pandas have two girlfriends, how about you?"

"Hanhan is not bad, I have two girlfriends, Neptune and scumbag!"

The audience in the live broadcast room said one after another.
