Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 484 Don't fight with mom for the male cat, it will bring misfortune

Just when the scene was becoming awkward, One-Eyed Beibei came in.

Seeing Dao Meihua standing in front of the pet villa with a mobile phone in hand, it was slightly stunned, and hesitantly paced back and forth for a few steps before slowly approaching the small platform where its son was.

When Brother and Sister Leopard saw Beibei, they immediately threw their son and grandson aside.

Especially Sister Leopard, who pushed Brother Leopard aside and howled at Beibei several times.

When Beibei heard the familiar voice, he froze, then looked around and made a "lulu" sound excitedly, but unfortunately he couldn't see Sister Leopard on the phone.

Beibei, who only heard the voice but couldn't see his adoptive mother, was a little at a loss. He stood there in a daze, and the sound in his throat turned into a mournful cry.

Although Dao Meihua couldn't understand what was being said, she had been in contact with animals for many years and could understand the emotions expressed by the animals' sounds to some extent.

Fortunately, there was a projection screen on the first floor of the villa. I opened the door decisively, projected my phone onto the screen, and then connected it to the speaker. The figures of Brother Leopard and Sister Leopard appeared on the wall.

Beibei leaped into the room and almost hit the wall. It stretched out its claws to touch it, but unfortunately it only touched a cold and hard wall.

"Beibei, step back, step back. This is a video, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Your parents can see you, and you can communicate through sound. Come on, step back and lie down."

Chen Ying's voice came from the speaker, directing Beibei to find the most suitable distance to lie down and communicate with Brother Bao and Sister Bao.

The three leopards were growling one after another. Although I couldn't touch them, it was pretty cool to be able to hear the sounds and see the images.

Amid the leopard's roar, Beibei gradually calmed down.

After listening for a while, the little leopard cub rolled and crawled into the house, climbed onto its mother's back, and wanted to complain, but its mother slapped it in the face and told it to be a good boy.

(I can’t draw a one-eye, but since Beibei has a fake eye, I’ll just assume he has only one eye)
Be a good boy? Impossible! Dad said, there are no tigers in the mountains, the leopards are the kings!

The little leopard ran out without recognizing any relatives to play with Da Piaoliang and the kitten.

In fact, Da Piaoliang is already an adult cat, but because of her small size, the leopard cub always thinks they are about the same size. And the leopard cub likes Da Piaoliang's long furry tail, so he follows her around every day, annoying the cat to death.

Da Piaoliang was too impatient to listen to the leopard family chatting, so she looked at the sky, left the kitten and the leopard cub, and left quickly.

The leopard cub wanted to catch up, but then he looked at the kitten again, thought for a moment, then jumped over, picked up the kitten, and prepared to give it to its mother for protection.

It is going to explore the mountains and forests, so you should also keep an eye on the small pets at home.

The kitten had a look of despair on its face as it was dragged off the platform by the leopard cub and finally forced into the arms of the big female leopard.

The big cats inside and outside the screen were all stunned, especially Leopard Brother and Leopard Sister. They thought that the kitten was a snack given by the leopard cub to its mother.

"No, it's its little toy."

Beibei sighed with difficulty. This was the bad thing about being too close to where the two-legged beasts lived. His son was almost losing his wildness.

They lived in Jiamugou at first, and although they lived with the two-legged beasts, there were no such weak animals in the two-legged beasts' place. Most of the vegetarians became their food.

But when it came to the leopard cubs, it preferred to learn from the stray cats nearby and was especially close to the two-legged beasts. Otherwise, it would not have taken the initiative to rescue the two children who ran away from home.

If it and Xiaobao had not been resting not far away, it would have been a blessing that the leopard cub was not torn to pieces by the group of monkeys with its fat body.

Dao Meihua found a charging cable and put down her phone, letting the big cats chat among themselves. She changed her phone and called Chen Ying.

“Brother Ying, I’ll prepare in advance what uncle and aunt like.”

"No, my mom doesn't like many things. She likes working the most, saying it's more comfortable than staying at home. As for my dad, he likes to drink a little, but he's not a big drinker. He's become more restrained as he gets older, and he doesn't drink more than two liang of wine a day."

"That's great. OK, I get it. I'll prepare it myself then."

The two chatted for a few minutes before turning to professional topics.

"My sister-in-law's best friend gave her a Maine Coon cat. I don't know if it's because it can't adapt to the climate, but the cat hasn't been eating much recently. Because it was a gift from her best friend, she was worried that the cat had health problems. She also asked a professional veterinarian to see it, but the results of the examination were all good. The veterinarian suspected that the cat was stressed by the change in environment."

Dao Meihua said that her sister-in-law loves animals, especially long-haired cats, which she loves as dearly as her heart.

"Her mother has many cats on her estate abroad, including Maine Coons, Ragdolls, Norwegian Forest Cats, and two servals."

In China, servals cannot be kept privately. Even if wealthy people can provide the servals with the necessary space, food and other conditions, the approval process is very strict and it does not necessarily mean that one can keep one if one has the money.

Dao Meihua's sister-in-law's family mainly deals in health care real estate, which includes a series of sunset industries such as senior apartments, high-end retirement vacation centers and high-end sanatoriums.

Moreover, it does not mean that all owners of the elderly care industry are elderly people. There are also many middle-aged people from the middle class who are willing to buy houses for their elderly family members to live in now and for them to live in themselves when they retire.

Her family applied to build a small but high-end rare wildlife park in the newly built cultural and tourism city project focusing on health care and children's study, which is an ancillary facility of the children's study venue.

Most of them are wild animals that are relatively rare in China, and their appearance is generally cute or novel.

Chen Ying could hear Dao Meihua's envy, "You want to raise one too?"

"That's not the case. I just think it's very novel." As a senior animal protection activist, Dao Meihua is not willing to use her connections to raise wild animals just for her own hobbies. "My job does not allow me to stay in one place for a long time, so I'd better forget about raising cats."

Besides, she can now occasionally touch a big leopard up close, which is a wish that many cat lovers will never be able to realize in their lifetime. When she already has a motorcycle, why does she need a bicycle!

The phone call lasted for more than an hour. When I looked back, Brother Leopard and Sister Leopard had already dispersed.

Beibei forcibly took the little leopard back. It planned to discuss with Xiaobao and migrate to a place where few people go.

Being too close to humans now is not good for the little leopard's growth.

The kitten can finally sleep freely however he wants.

I didn't dare to run because if I was caught, I would be beaten.

Alas, it is probably the first rural cat ever to be kept in captivity by a clouded cat.

It is possible that leopard cats and rural cats are mixed-blooded, but clouded leopard cats are different. Their living habits are quite different from those of rural cats. Under normal circumstances, the two rarely have territorial overlap.

The time of hibernation is fleeting.

After Xiao Shen handed the third version of his paper to his supervisor, he did not get a response immediately. It seemed that his supervisor had gone abroad for a meeting and would not start work until after the Chinese New Year. Yin Li came back on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month and would not report to the State Forestry and Grassland Bureau until the 7th day of the first lunar month. Except for New Year's Eve and the first day of the first lunar month, he would usually stay at the emergency station. It was lively and he would play cards for a while and the time passed quickly.

"This winter is so cold. The snow has been falling for three or four days. I don't know what the situation is like on the mountain."

Four men were playing cards, Mengmeng was watching a TV series and chatting with the girls in the group.

Watching TV series and making comments at the same time is a common hobby among girls.

"I heard from Ram that there was an avalanche in her hometown."

"Where is her hometown? Why is there an avalanche?"

"In the mountains near Linzhi, it was said that it snowed for seven or eight days before an avalanche occurred. But the people there have all moved out of the mountains. The avalanche happened deep in the mountains, so no one was injured. I don't know about the animals, but I guess a lot of them were killed."

That place is at the junction of Sichuan and Tibet, and it is very far away from Jiamu Valley. It takes two or three days to drive there.

After hearing Mengmeng's words, Chen Ying suddenly thought of Dabao and Leopard Queen Sister for some reason.

Their range of activity is in that area, but I don't know if the specific location is where the avalanche happened.

What a pity. If only I had some acquaintances at Dabao Life, at least I would know how it is doing now.

However, the leopard sister should have rich survival experience. As long as they are not extremely unlucky, they should be fine. Will there be a baby leopard born this year? Should he find a chance to go and see it?
Feeling like an old father whose daughter had married far away, Chen Ying shook his head violently to get rid of this damn association.

On the afternoon of the third day of the Lunar New Year, Uncle Zhaxi made a video call. Erniu returned to the Heyuan First Aid Station, and Uncle Zhaxi took the opportunity to let it meet Chen Ying through the computer screen.

Uncle Zhaxi said that the data from Heyuan and several surrounding management stations are now connected to the Internet, and Erniu's activities in this area can be monitored in real time. This winter, it reached the east of Qiangtang as far as possible, and spent most of the rest of the time wandering around the area between the Budong River and Heyuan.

As the second girl with the largest territory, she inexplicably started a harem.

The territory of the big cat is a male cat, which covers the territories of several female cats. When the breeding season comes, the male cat will run around looking for female cats to have some spring breeze.

When it was Erniu's turn, she could just go find any male cat she wanted, and she was like the queen of cats on the snowy plateau!

Erniu's cubs are just beginning to learn to be independent and have not completely left their mother's territory this year. It will not be until the beginning of next spring that they will leave the Heyuan First Aid Station and go to other places to conquer the world.

And in the initial period of time, the three little ones will form an alliance. Once they have completely adapted to the outside world, the two male snow leopards will leave their sisters and venture out into the world on their own.

As the only female snow leopard in the litter, the little girl will occupy her own territory close to her mother's territory.

However, what is a little embarrassing is that the male leopards in this area near the outer edge of the nature reserve are all members of its mother's harem. In order to better continue its bloodline, it may choose to find a boyfriend near the outer mountains.

It’s really hard to compete with my mom, who is a cat lover, for a boy cat!

Chen Ying and his team installed a water heater under the mezzanine on the first floor and laid several felt mats around it.

Cats of all sizes were lying there sleeping, and the whole first aid station was extremely harmonious.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Ying, who was still taking a nap, was awakened by the ringing of her cell phone.

"Hey, uh, sleeping. What? Car accident?"

Chen Ying sat up suddenly and said, "What happened? Tell me the details."

"Large vehicles were not allowed to use the highway during the Chinese New Year, but from 7:30 last night, because this section of the highway was too icy, it was directly closed, and all vehicles could only use the national and provincial roads."

"At 213am, the vehicle transporting the animals departed from Station 375 and was scheduled to arrive at :pm. However, at am, the driver could not be contacted. The zoo suspected something had happened and sent someone to drive in the opposite direction to look for him. The transport vehicle was found at kilometer of the provincial highway."

"When we found it, there was a pileup on that trail, with the transporter stuck in the middle, a heavily loaded truck in front, and two off-road vehicles and a light truck in the back."

Chen Ying quickly asked how the person was doing now.

"The driver and the escort have been sent to the hospital. They were said to have suffered head injuries and are still unconscious. The problem is that we don't know what happened to the animals in the car. The traffic police didn't dare to open the door and couldn't get in touch with them for a while, so they had to send someone to guard the car."

After receiving the news, the rescue center sent people to help. After meeting with the zoo staff, we found out that there were three kinds of animals on the bus.

"A monkey family, including two adult monkeys and two sub-adult monkeys. There are also two raccoon dogs and two red foxes. The animals were isolated in transfer cages. Because the journey was not far, they were not transported separately to save costs."

"Did anyone at the zoo hear anything outside the carriage?"

The person on the other side seemed to ask the people around him before replying that he didn't hear any sound.

Chen Ying was already dressed and was running downstairs while answering the phone.

"Xia Sen, come with me for a while. There was a car accident outside the town. A zoo transport vehicle was affected, and the rescue center is short of staff."

Without saying anything, Xia Sen rushed into the treatment room, put on the portable ultrasound machine, and picked up two first aid kits. One of them was used regularly by Chen Ying, and the other was used when they went out for field research. The equipment and first aid medicines were fully equipped.

He quickly ran to the maintenance station and drove down the mountain without even having time to talk to the staff on duty.

After all, it was only the fourth day of the Chinese New Year and it was still the holiday period, so there were not many people on duty in various units.

The doctors in the rescue center are basically from other places and they all go back home for the New Year and other holidays, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to call Chen Ying.

By the time he and Xia Sen found the car, the accident scene had been almost cleaned up.

The transfer vehicle was also opened with the help of people from the park, but the situation was not particularly good.

Animals cannot wear seat belts like humans, so the monkeys suffered a great shock at the moment of the car accident.

Fortunately, their transfer cages were well secured and the space for movement was not particularly large, so the animals were all still alive. Only the male gray langur was not in good condition, most likely with a broken bone and internal injuries.

The two raccoon dogs were in better condition than the two foxes. Both foxes had broken hind limbs. Their cries were very thin and rapid, and they would struggle when they saw humans approaching.

As they struggle, the injuries to their broken limbs will worsen, making their emotions even more unstable and their cries even more shrill.

When Chen Ying arrived, he asked everyone to leave to make room for the veterinarian to provide treatment.

Perhaps they sensed Chen Ying's presence, the cries of the two foxes gradually softened. They lay down and stared at Chen Ying with tears in their big eyes, and the fur on their noses was soaked.
