Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 401 Muscle Leopard is so brainless? (asking for monthly votes)

Seeing the two of them driving towards the mountain, the big snow leopard nimbly climbed onto the car from behind, intending to hitchhike to patrol its territory.

Yin Li drove an old jeep with a luggage rack on top. The big snow leopard lay on it, holding onto the horizontal bar, letting the wind blow the hair on its face into shape.

They sped all the way down the mountain. As soon as Chen Ying and the others parked the car, the big snow leopard jumped down, shook its fur, and ran up the mountain quickly.

"Let's go. It's in the valley ahead. In addition to the herd of wild yaks, there's also a herd of Tibetan antelopes nearby. I saw wild donkeys before, but there weren't many of them. I didn't see them the last time I came. I wonder if they were scared away."

They only brought a camera and a drone.

I didn’t plan to get a closer look this time, but the long barrel of the camera would allow for a view, and the drone could take photos from above.

However, wild yaks are ferocious in nature, and if a drone gets too close they will see it as a provocation and ram it violently.

"See that white yak with a little bit of yellow?"

The two men lay behind a rock, pointing the camera's telephoto lens and telescope at the herd of yaks.

This group of yaks is not large in number and the battle line is a bit long. I don’t know if they are two groups or one large group.

There were about a dozen or twenty of them closer to them, with a few calves that were obviously much smaller among them.

Then a dozen or so scattered groups of them kept a distance from each other.

A little further away, there were a dozen or twenty yaks grazing leisurely.

The white yak was in the middle of the two groups, with two black yaks of the same size next to it and a small yak following closely behind it.

"It looks like a cow. How about going over to take a look?"

Yin Li's teeth clenched. What the hell were they looking at? There were so many yaks, and the white one was in the middle. They could either take a detour and go down the mountainside on both sides, or go through the herd of yaks to find the white yak.

No matter which way you go, the risk factor is high.

Forget it, just take photos and videos first and let the experts figure out what to do.

After taking pictures of the yaks, Yin Li accidentally raised the long cannon and aimed it at the mountain on the left.

"Hey, that snow leopard is Erniu's husband, right? What is he doing?"

Chen Ying picked up the telescope and looked, frowning.

At the entrance of the cave on the opposite cliff, a big snow leopard was busy going in and out to clean up the garbage in the cave.

This dog said he found a safe place in the mountains to raise his baby. Is this the place he found?

It seems that the cave is at least seven or eight meters above the ground and is located on an extremely steep mountain wall.

Adult snow leopards can get up and down easily, but it would be difficult for a baby snow leopard to climb up after rolling down.

The most important thing is that there is a golden eagle's nest on the back of the mountain. Once the little snow leopard falls out of the cave, it is likely to be caught by the golden eagle waiting nearby.

As soon as he thought of this possibility, Chen Ying felt a chill down his spine.

When he gets back, he will definitely tell Erniu not to move!
Don't listen to that unlucky leopard and put the child in such a dangerous place before the child grows up and can protect himself!

After returning to the rest stop, Chen Ying didn't even have time to rest and rushed directly to the animal shed to find Erniu.

Pulling Erniu's ears and holding her big face with her forearms, Chen Ying spoke word by word, gritting his teeth as he greeted Erniu.

"If you dare take the cub to that cave, I will kick you out of the house and I will raise the child."

Erniu looked at him innocently.

What cave? What are you talking about? The two-legged beasts are weird.

Before Chen Ying had finished his warning, the snow leopard came back with a pika in its mouth.

He put the pika down, leaned over and licked Erniu's cheek, and told it that he had packed up the cave and could move in with the children at any time.

Erniu suddenly realized and looked at Chen Ying. Seeing that he had an ugly expression on his face, she bit the snow leopard's cheek fur and dragged it aside for interrogation.

"Well, what did you do? The Twolegs are angry and won't let me take the baby away."

"Why?" The big snow leopard felt aggrieved. "That cave is very safe. My mother gave birth to me in that cave, and later it gave birth to my sister there too."

Erniu hesitated and looked at Chen Ying.

Not even a safe place like this?

When Chen Ying heard the snow leopard's aggrieved words, she came over and pulled its ears.

"After your mother gave birth to you, did she move you to another place to live? Have you been growing up in that cave?"

"Well, of course not!" The big snow leopard growled, "That cave is only suitable for cubs, not when they grow up."

"Tell me, how old were you when your mother moved you?"

The big snow leopard tilted his head and thought again and again, but couldn't figure it out. It was just a confused little leopard at that time, and didn't remember when it moved. But it seemed that its mother and sister moved a long time ago?
Chen Ying slapped it hard on the forehead and turned to look at Erniu.

"You don't know what kind of place this guy chose. It's so high from the ground, and there's no telling if the children will get hurt if they fall. If you two go out to look for food, the children won't be able to climb back if they fall. There's a golden eagle nearby! Are you planning to leave your son to feed the birds?"

Erniu's eyes gradually narrowed, and there was a hint of murderous intent in her look towards the snow leopard.

After hearing what Chen Ying said, the big snow leopard was stunned.

"No, it's not... like this..." The voice was extremely weak and his eyes were evasive.

Erniu was so angry that she rushed over, grabbed the snow leopard, scratched it, and bit it.

The big snow leopard knew that he had done something wrong, and ran out howling, saying as he ran that he would look for another place and he would definitely find a suitable den.

Erniu sneezed and leisurely returned to the animal shed.

Several cubs are already able to crawl around. After crawling out of their dens, they begin to bravely explore the world.

The big cub is so fat that you can't even see its legs. When it crawls, it feels like a small gas tank moving vertically.

The second cub is a little more symmetrical. At least when it uses four paws to support its body, you can see that it is still about a finger's distance from the ground.

As for the third one, he is similar to the second one, but a little thinner, and his cry is the most delicate.

The calls of snow leopards are very low and lack that kind of domineering air, but the third one made a sweet and soft sound like a pet cat.

Moreover, it also likes Chen Ying's scent the most. Every time Chen Ying stands next to it, it will accurately find Chen Ying's feet and lie on the instep of Chen Ying's feet without any hesitation to touch him. It will not be willing to follow the brothers to play for a while until he kisses, hugs and lifts it up.

Chen Ying also understood the big snow leopard's desire to take the little snow leopard away.

After all, snow leopard cubs grow very fast, and they have to start learning and practicing hunting right after weaning.

A mother’s words and deeds are important, but Erniu’s own hunting ability is really not that impressive in the snow leopard circle.

It would be great if the big snow leopard wanted to take on the responsibility of a father and teach his children how to hunt.

Watching the children playing, Erniu came over and rubbed against Chen Ying, then ran out.

I guess he was a little worried about the big snow leopard's vision. After all, his father sometimes didn't consider too much.

It was unknown when the two big leopards would come back after going out, so Chen Ying played with the cubs for a while and then put them back into the den.

The second and third ones yawned and soon fell asleep in each other's arms. But the eldest one was different. He ran to the den alone and started scratching and gnawing at a stone with his baby teeth.

Chen Ying closed the door of the animal shed to make sure no other animals could get in, then returned to the proportioning room to get the meat out to thaw.

The weather is nice tonight, perfect for a beef hotpot.

Soak the beef leg bones and spine in water, wait for the blood to thaw and then wash them clean. Finally, use a pressure cooker to press them for ten minutes and the flavor of the beef bone soup will come out.

There are no other vegetables at the station, just radishes and cabbages.

There were also some vermicelli and pickled cabbage. In addition, the herders gave me some spicy peppers and onions, which I fried with cumin beef and went very well with rice.

The three grown men didn't care much. They used the iron basin as a dish, filled three lunch boxes with rice, and started eating.

While eating and chatting, Sun Qihai almost choked on his food. He coughed for a long time before he pushed the phone to Chen Ying with a red face.

A photo with the face blurred. It can be seen that it was taken in the ward and one of the people was lying in bed.

The four of them held a piece of paper with the three big words "I was wrong" written on it in black pen, and held it high above their heads.

"I have a college classmate who is doing postgraduate study at their school. This was sent to me by my classmate, saying that the four of them had publicly reviewed their mistakes in the department, but the school only notified them of the criticism and did not keep any records on their files."

It is estimated that the school also wants to use this to warn other students participating in field internships.

It is not clear whether the school asked the photo to be taken, but the whole school knows about it now. I guess the four students’ field internship scores will be worrying.

Chen Ying took a quick look and didn't ask any more questions. He turned to discuss with Yin Li about building a first aid station and observation station here.

"Building one will also have its benefits." Yin Li picked up a piece of meat and raised his chin slightly while chewing.

"In the past two years, the number of animals here has increased. According to our monitoring data, lynx and caracal, which were rarely seen before, can now be frequently photographed in marginal areas. The number of snow leopards has doubled, and there is a trend of expanding outward."

It was obvious that the number of stations and patrol personnel set up previously were insufficient. Chen Ying envisioned an emergency station and testing station that directly applied the model of Xiong Youming's observation station, and he thought it should work.

In fact, there are quite a few volunteers and trainees who come to them to inquire every year, but the former can't do much and the latter can't stay for long.

If the first aid station and observation station are built, two regular employees can be arranged to take turns on duty, and all other work will be rotated by volunteers and trainees.

You only need to work for eight months a year. If these conditions are put forward, there will definitely be people willing to come.

"When you go back, discuss with your leader and place this observatory under the name of your Heyuan Management Station."

Originally, this area is under the responsibility of the Heyuan Management Station. The two older uncles can be sent here to work so that they don’t have to follow the young people out on patrol in the mountains, which can be considered as taking care of the elderly.

Moreover, the two uncles are very familiar with the terrain, climate and all aspects of life, and can guide young people to adapt to life and work in the plateau more quickly.
