More than a dozen villagers guarded outside a chicken coop with shovels and hoes.
"He's stealing chicken again, I finally caught this time!"
"Kill it! The chickens in the whole cage are ruined!"
"Don't worry! Let's wait until the village head comes."
...
Many villagers were filled with outrage, apparently this happened many times before.
quickly.
"The village chief is here!"
Xiang Qian and others followed Uncle Baru to the chicken coop.
"Keep away, let me see."
Uncle Baru let the villagers disperse, and then looked into the chicken coop through the iron fence.
See you.
There is a chicken feather in this chicken coop.
Dozens of native chickens lay motionless on the ground, but most of them were scared to death.
And in the corner.
There was a trembling scarlet figure.
"Red Fox?"
Xiang Qian was a little surprised.
At the same time, I saw the red fox's right forelimb, being clamped tightly by the trap.
"It's injured! Brother Zhao, give me the emergency medical kit quickly."
Ding Mengyang's face changed.
Zhao Wuyang quickly took out the medical kit.
But Xiang Qian grabbed Ding Mengyang and shook his head:
"Wait first."
Wild animals must be rescued.
But everything must pay attention to methods and methods, especially now.
At this moment, the villagers said in anger:
"Uncle Baru, shall we kill it? Can't let it go this time!"
"That's right! Who can stand it for stealing chickens twice?"
"As long as the village chief nods, I will be the first to rush in."
...
Seeing this, Bu Ling immediately urged:
"Can't be killed. The fox is now a state-protected animal."
A hint of appreciation appeared in Xiang Qian's eyes.
In 2000.
Wild red foxes are three animals, but they have now been upgraded to National Two, especially in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
The red fox is protected by local emphasis.
at this time.
Uncle Baru's attitude is particularly important.
Don't take the village chief as an improper cadre, after all, he is on the ground of others, and Xiang Qian dare not call the shots.
That will arouse public outrage.
"Everyone stay quiet."
Uncle Baru waved his hand, and then said:
"Our village just came to the zoo's inspection team, let's see what people say first."
At this moment.
Xiang Qian knew that he should talk, so he said seriously:
"Village Baru, we will report the economic losses caused by this red fox to the forestry authority, and the state will make corresponding compensation."
It is true.
According to Article 49 of the "Property Law":
[The wild animal and plant resources that are state-owned by law are owned by the state]
In other words.
Our country is legally clear that the country is the owner of wild animals.
According to the basic legal principle that whoever owns and benefits, the corresponding person should be held responsible, the state should assume the responsibility of compensation and compensation for the harm caused by wild animals.
There are specific compensation methods in this regard.
I won't elaborate on it!
Ding Mengyang was too anxious before, and indeed forgot to take care of the villagers' emotions.
React now.
The eldest lady from Beihai Forestry Station nodded quickly and said:
"Yes, I will take photos and write materials later, and I have to trouble the village chief to sign."
Heard this.
The angry mood of the villagers finally eased.
Uncle Baru nodded in satisfaction.
Actually.
In the past, he would also report this situation to the forestry department in the county.
The key Gaogang Village is far in the mountains.
It is not easy for a forestry staff to come here. If the loss is small, I am really sorry to trouble others to do it.
But this time the loss was great.
After all, the collective chicken coop has more than 600 native chickens, and this time the loss was nearly one tenth.
"Okay! The fox who stole the chicken will be handled by the comrades in the zoo."
Uncle Baru said.
The village chief has spoken, and the villagers naturally have no opinion.
After all, I can get compensation from the state after a while.
"Thank you Uncle Baru for your cooperation."
Smiled to Qian, then waved.
Quickly let Ding Mengyang go to rescue the injured Red Fox.
squeak! ~
However, Ding Mengyang and Zhao Wuyang entered the chicken coop.
Ha ha! ! !
The red fox was afraid to make a warning sound, showing its sharp teeth.
It seems to prove that he is fierce.
Unfortunately…
It looks cute, after all, the appearance of the red fox is a bit like an Akita dog.
It's just a slender figure, a white belly, and a big fluffy tail.
The limbs are brown.
"Don't be afraid, we are here to save you."
Ding Mengyang said, looking at Zhao Wuyang and said:
"Brother Zhao, lend me the jacket."
"it is good!"
Zhao Wuyang quickly took off his coat, Ding Mengyang carefully approached the red fox with his coat, and smiled:
"You have to be good."
As he said, gently put his coat on the red fox's head.
"Brother Zhao, quickly open the trap and remember to act lightly."
Directed by Ding Mengyang, he quickly opened the medical kit.
...
Look at the outside of the chicken coop.
Xiang Qian communicated with Uncle Baru and glanced at the inside of the chicken coop.
Saw Ding Mengyang helping the red fox in an orderly manner.
He was finally relieved.
I remember Xiang Qian saw two red foxes at the forestry station in Beihai.
Ding Mengyang is not the first contact.
Through communication with Uncle Baru.
Actually.
Even if there is no Xiang Qian, they are there.
Baru did not intend to kill the red fox who stole the chicken.
Instead, they are going to be locked up first and wait for the forestry department to come and handle it.
In addition.
Xiang Qian also learned of another situation.
"In recent years, I don't know what's wrong. Wild animals have always come to our village to destroy crops."
Uncle Baru shook his head and said.
The surrounding villagers also reported the situation:
"Yes! I saw a big wild boar in the field a few days ago."
"And there are leopards, that frightened me!"
...
Know these things.
Xiang Qian thought of the reason in an instant.
This is probably caused by the wild South China tiger. After all, tigers often patrol the territory, hunt down or drive away other types of predators.
and so…
It is not surprising that wild boars and leopards have been found in Gaogang Village in recent years.
over the years.
The South China Tiger has become functionally extinct in the wild and has long since withdrawn from the ecological chain.
Now a miraculous appearance.
Nature can affect the ecological balance of the reserve.
Not to mention animals...
It should be fortunate that no human has encountered the South China Tiger, otherwise the matter would be much more serious.
"Okay, I already have this information, and I will report it to the forestry authority afterwards."
Nodded to Qian frequently and promised:
"Villagers, please rest assured, our zoo's inspection team, after completing this task, such things will definitely be greatly improved."
I am very sure of that!
Xiangqian came for the South China tiger.
...
"Good! ~ No pain, no pain."
However, Ding Mengyang comforted the red fox.
Carefully clean the wounds on the forelimbs with cotton swabs, and then apply the ointment, then use gauze to bandage.
during this process.
The Red Fox didn't struggle, and he clearly understood that the other party was helping himself.
The dressing is complete.
Ding Mengyang collected the medicine and smiled:
"Okay, stay on your stomach."
With that, Ding Mengyang took out the camera and started taking pictures, and at the same time counted the losses of the chicken coop.
See this scene.
The villagers outside gradually dispersed.
Xiang Qian also walked in at this moment, glanced at the terrible chicken coop, couldn't help looking at the red fox, shaking his head and smiling:
"You are better than a weasel."
Hahaha! ~
The red fox opened his mouth, then stood up on three legs, and his right foreleg was curled toward the outside.
"Where are you going?" asked Qian curiously.
Huh...
But when he saw that, the red fox turned around and motioned to Qian and the others to follow.
that's it.
Except for Ding Mengyang staying in the chicken coop to deal with the funeral, Xiang Qian and others followed the red fox to the depths of the chicken coop.
"What is it doing?"
Bu Ling asked curiously, and shook his head to Qian Ze:
"I don't know, take a look first."
quickly…
The red fox limped to the vent and then let out a cry.
Haha! ~
The next second, an anxious cry came from the wall outside the vent.
Quack! ~
Reacting to Qian, he couldn't help but smile:
"Do you have any accomplices?"
With that, he walked forward a few steps towards Qian and looked outside the vent.
really…
Under the wall I saw a jumping...
arctic fox?
Shrinking his pupil towards Qian, it was indeed a snow-white fox.
Surprise joy!
Withdrawing his gaze, Qian looked at the red fox and smiled:
"Very well, you still have accomplices."
...
After half an hour.
Xiang Qian and others left the chicken coop, and Zhao Wuyang hugged the injured red fox.
at the same time.
There was a snow-white fox behind him.
"So cute white fox."
Bu Ling had little stars in his eyes, but he dared not approach the white fox.
"Let's go, let's go to Bling's house." Xiang Qian smiled.
Bid farewell to the mayor of Baru.
Xiang Qian and his group of six people soon came to Bling's house.
See you.
The Bling House is halfway up the mountain and is also a ‘dry fence’ wooden building.
"Abba, Amei, there are guests at home!"
Bu Ling shouted, and Bu Shan coughed and walked out of the room with a smile:
"Mondy, welcome guests!"
"Mondina, good uncle."
Smiling and saying hello to Qian and the others, only Mian Hulu was expressionless.
At this moment, the younger daughter Buman also ran out excitedly:
"Wow! A visitor is here?"
"Sister, go do your homework."
Bu Ling blamed, Bu Shan waved and smiled:
"Come in and sit down. I heard Burling talk about it. You are the zoo inspection team."
"Yes."
Smiled and nodded to Qian, and then everyone walked into the Bring's house.
Giggle...
The white fox hovered at the door, seemingly afraid to come in.
Fortunately, the red fox in Zhao Wuyang's arms let out a cry.
Haha! ~
[To the effect: my sister comes in, these humans are very friendly]
The white fox heard this.
Then he jumped into the Bulling's house.
...
When they saw it, Xiang Qian and Bu Shan talked with a smile.
Bring brought a pot of camellia, looked at his father and asked:
"Abba, where's Brother Shuang?"
"I went to herd the cows, cough...cough, I guess I will be back later."
Bu Shan coughed and said to Qian Ze:
"Uncle Bu, pay attention to your body."
"Hey, my body..." Bu Shan shook his head.
Xiang Qian's heart moved, although he wanted to invite the Brings to work in the zoo.
But the time is not yet ripe.
Again.
You must pay attention to methods and methods for everything, if you bring it up now.
Let alone whether Bling agrees.
I'm afraid it will scare others. Xiang Qian knows very well that this has to be done slowly.
Wait till tomorrow...
After the expedition is over.
That's the best time to send out the invitation, and I can't eat hot tofu now.
I saw Ding Mengyang inspecting the red fox and the white fox.
Naturally asked Qian:
"Can you tell if it is a parent or a righteous relative?"
Parents... Righteous relatives...
Zoo term
Parents refer to father and mother, male and female animals that breed their own offspring.
simply put.
It is an animal with a blood relationship.
In terms of reproduction, we will talk about it later, it is a big category.
And righteous relatives refer to animals that have no parent-child relationship with raising offspring.
There is no blood relationship.
"I checked the inner ear and the tooth bed. They are parents. The male red fox is three years old and the female white fox is two years old."
Hearing Ding Mengyang's answer, he nodded and smiled at Qian:
"It turned out to be brother and sister."
even though.
The blood relationship of animals usually requires DNA testing to distinguish.
The point is that they are people from the zoo!
In fact, apart from testing DNA.
The zoo has another method of distinguishing parents.
Xiang Qian also knew, but Ding Mengyang still had to come to the actual operation.
After all, this Nizi grew up in a forestry station.
And the white fox.
Obviously the red fox's own sister, or an albino mutant.
To know.
The red fox is the largest fox in the world, with an adult body length of 70 cm and a life span of about 12-14 years.
No wonder the native chickens will be scared to death.
At this moment, Xiang Qian also looked at the red and white double fox and smiled:
"Don't steal chickens from now on! Come back to the zoo with me tomorrow."
Haha! ~
The red fox seemed to understand, and nodded very spiritually.
Giggle...
The white fox bounced happily.
Then he and Bling's sister played a catch-up game with each other.
obviously.
Xiang Qian plans to take in the fox brothers and sisters.
The problem is not big.
Just go to the forestry station for the record afterwards.
After all, the foxes have been stealing the native chickens in the village for a long time, and they are obviously repeat offenders.
It is really not suitable for being released into the wild.
some things.
Only zero and countless times.
Once started.
Things will become irreparable.
