As a veterinarian, it's reasonable to give a panda an egg.

Chapter 226 National first-class protected animals, black storks and white-naped cranes! !
"What kind of bird is this? It's quite big."

"With such a long neck and legs, it must be a crane, right?"

"All I know is that these two big wings are pretty good and they're definitely great for grilling."

"As we all know, the weirder it looks, the more severe the punishment! No one knows this thing, so it must be very severe."

"It's white in front and black in the back, and its legs and beak are red. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if you dare to mess with this bird, you'll probably spend the rest of your life in jail."

Look at the black stork flying in the sky in the picture.

The audience watching the live broadcast were all talking about it.

But no one could recognize it.

Seeing that several people were looking up at the sky, Baihu and the two dumplings looked over at the same time, but found that it was a big bird and immediately lost interest.

They have been raised in the wild since childhood.

I have seen many strange birds.

Big Tuanzi turned his head to look at the swaying rice fields. His nose twitched slightly as he smelled the rice fragrance coming from the fields.

Looking at the rice ears, its eyes flashed a few times.

I wonder what this thing tastes like?
The white tiger felt that the black stork was so thin and had little meat on its body, so it had no interest in it. Moreover, it could not catch it since it was flying in the sky.

The little ball clung to Li Sen's shoulders, raised its little head, and looked up at the black stork in the sky.

As a cub, the little guy has little experience and will be very curious about things or creatures he has never seen before.

“It really is a black stork!!”

Looking at the big bird, Professor Wu murmured.

The fourth uncle was closest to Professor Wu. Hearing his murmurs, he immediately asked, "Black stork? What kind of bird is this?"

"Black stork! That's the name of the big bird in the sky. It's also called the black stork or the steel stork. It's a first-class protected animal in the country."

"Its body features are very obvious, with a long, thin beak and red feet, a white belly and a dark green back. There are very few of them in the world today, less than 3,000, so it is also called the 'giant panda among birds.'"

Looking at the black stork in the sky, Li Sen explained.

This was said to everyone present.

It is also to popularize science with the audience,
With Li Sen's answer, Professor Wu picked up the camera on his chest and started taking pictures of the black stork circling in the sky.

Although he is not an expert in studying birds.

Photos of these rare animals are still very valuable.

What’s more, black storks have never appeared in the Yuxi Nature Reserve, which has multiple implications for the reserve.

"A first-class national protected animal?"

"Isn't this the same as the tiger and the bamboo bear?"

"It's also Guoyi. We can't just chase this bird away. We have to find a way to keep it here."

As villagers in the mountains, they were not interested in any science popularization. When they heard that it was a national first-class animal, they couldn't help but look at the white tiger and the two dumplings and discussed in a low voice.

Now everyone knows that Yuxi Village was designated as a protected area because of the appearance of white tigers and pandas.

The black stork is on the same level as these two animals.

If they can stay, like animals like white tigers and pandas, it will definitely be of some benefit to the village.

Since the nature reserve has established a base in the village, villagers have enjoyed some benefits. If they have any problems related to breeding, they can go there to consult experts. This kind of treatment is not available in other places.

Yang Haoming couldn't help but ask, "Asen, Professor Wu, can you keep this black stork?"

"Uncle! You don't know this. The black stork is a migratory bird like the wild goose. It will not settle in the same place. It will fly south to spend the winter." Hearing this, Li Sen responded with a smile.

If only the black stork could stay.

This will inevitably make the nature reserve pay more attention to Yuxi Village.

He understood Yang Haoming's psychology.

As the village chief, Yang Haoming certainly wants all the good things to remain in the village.

"That's it!!"

Yang Haoming showed disappointment.

Li Sen smiled and said nothing more.

There was one thing he didn't say.

These black storks appear in pairs.

Or they came to the rice fields to look for food, proving that the nest was near Yuxi Village.

It should be within a radius of three or four kilometers.

The distance could be even shorter.

The reason I didn't say anything was to avoid being disturbed.

Of course, to be sure, we have to track it.

"Go and get busy! Don't you still need to catch rice fish? Why are you still hanging around?" Seeing that the black stork was reluctant to land, Yang Haoming thought it was because there were too many people watching, so he started to chase them away.

There's nothing exciting to see.

The villagers who were watching all went back to their work.

"Asen! What about our family? Should we still catch rice fish?" Looking at the black stork, the fourth uncle asked.

"Don't worry, bro."

"Once the black stork finishes hunting, it will leave soon." Professor Wu put down the camera and said with a smile.

"Mr. Wu is right!"

"I'll help you catch rice fish later. I haven't gone to the fields to catch fish for a long time, and I miss it a lot." Li Sen signaled to his fourth uncle not to worry.

"Asen, just do your thing."

Yang Haoming waved his hand and echoed, "Uncle, if the black stork leaves late, I will call someone to help. I guarantee that I won't waste your time."

Upon hearing this, the fourth uncle felt a little relieved.

After circling for a while, the black stork landed in the field.

Li Sen thought about it, then operated the drone to fly over, intending to take a close-up photo of the black stork. He held a mobile phone in his hand to watch.

Professor Wu also took out his tablet.

He had never observed this rare bird up close.

Yang Haoming and Fourth Uncle also came over to watch.

As the drone slowly flew away, Li Sen began to zoom in, and two black storks appeared clearly in the picture.

Two black storks walked slowly in the rice fields with light steps. When their legs stepped into the mud of the rice fields, they did not create a ripple.

One of the black storks stopped quickly, its neck turning flexibly, keenly sensing the trace of prey. It stopped instantly, its body still like a sculpture, only its eyes fixed firmly on the front.

Then, with lightning speed, it quickly extended its long, sharp beak towards the rice field.

The black stork pecked accurately and held a small rice fish firmly in its mouth. However, it did not swallow it. Instead, its long beak opened and closed, making a "tapping" sound.

"What is it doing?"

Seeing that the black stork did not eat the fish and also made a special sound, Yang Haoming asked curiously.

"Probably calling for a mate!"

"The black stork is a monogamous bird. Generally speaking, it will only have one mate for its entire life." Li Sen explained while looking at the screen.

The "tapping" sound is the black stork's special way of communication.

This black stork is relatively large.

If nothing unexpected happens, it is a male black stork.

In the world, there are many birds that are mainly monogamous and have very stable relationships, such as swans, black storks, white-naped cranes and other birds.

Li Sen thought of the bald eagle that appeared before.

Because bald eagles are also this type of bird, they basically mate for life.

There was no news about the bald eagle that had visited the farm before, which made Li Sen feel a little disappointed.

There are so many mysteries surrounding the bald eagle.

Let him think about uncovering it.

"Is there such a thing?"

Yang Haoming was shocked.

Li Sen nodded slightly in response.

There is also an example circulating on the Internet.

That is the story of the White-naped Crane 'Hutao'.
