At Zhongyun Zoo, Fan Weishen and Xue Zonghong led everyone to the next place, and the first group basically followed. Those who arrived later also wanted to follow them to the front to see them, but they didn't even see all the butterflies. They really couldn't go or not go. They were so confused. Some hesitated and stayed, while others followed, thinking to read first-hand information first and come back to see the butterflies later.
Everyone walked through a winding road again, with lush woods on both sides. It can be seen that the green environment of the entire zoo is very good. This time we walked for seven or eight minutes before we reached the next place, where we saw a very large garden in the distance.
This time there was no need to search, as one could see a dozen animals inside at a glance. They look like a kind of bird, some tall or short, big or small, most of them are about one meter, estimated to be twenty or thirty pounds, with blue-gray feathers, a beak of about 23 cm, slightly black, and a curved hook at the front end. , with red dots, short wings that certainly looked flightless, thick, yellow legs, and a tuft of curled feathers on the rump.
What makes most people a little confused is that these animals look familiar, but when they think about it carefully, they can't remember them.
"What kind of bird is this? A kind of ostrich?"
"Obviously not, I've never seen it."
The few who recognized it, such as Shen Hong and Shen Jiayao, and other people in the zoo industry were stunned, as if they were petrified. It was much more shocking than before when I saw extinct species such as the Oryx's bullet rat.
"Oh my God." Shen Hong rubbed his eyes and looked again, but what he saw was still the same, and his expression was still only shock and disbelief.
"Dodo, is this a dodo?" Shen Jiayao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and breathed quickly. For a glamorous beauty, this kind of action was considered indecent, but she was in no mood to worry about her image at the moment.
"No way." After Zhu Jianhua and Liu Yin heard about the dodo, they remembered it and couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"What is a dodo?" Zhou Lan asked curiously.
"I don't quite remember. It seems to be another extinct species. Let's take a picture first." Qin Xulan excitedly took out his mobile phone to take a picture. At the same time, he pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the conversation between Shen Hong and Fan Weishen. He thought To know what it is, just listen to them.
Others who didn't understand, some looked up information, some asked, and after learning the situation, they all couldn't help but get excited.
"Let me introduce you. The various animals we saw before are quite rare. But if we want to use an animal as a sign, we will not hesitate to choose the one in front of us. Some people have already recognized them. Yes, they are It’s called the Dodo, also called the Dodo bird, and also called the Mauritius Dodo bird.” Fan Weishen began to introduce, and spoke eloquently,
"This kind of bird once lived in Mauritius. Many people should have heard of Mauritius. Mark Twain once said that there was Mauritius first, and then God created paradise with it. This shows how beautiful it is. In Mauritius, this piece of paradise, crossing The dodo has no natural enemies and is rich in food. In the long process of natural evolution, the structure of the dodo's chest, which was originally capable of flying, gradually changed and was no longer able to support its flight. Eventually, it became what humans have seen. The dodo was a bird that could only jump on land. In just 200 years after it was discovered by humans, it was completely extinct due to human hunting and the impact of human activities. It can be said to be the largest bird besides dinosaurs. One of the famous extinct animals and the only extinct bird designated as the national bird of Mauritius.”
Fan Weishen introduced the origin, extinction and rarity of this dodo bird in a few words, giving everyone a deeper understanding. Everyone finally understood why Fan Weishen said that if he had to choose a sign, he would definitely choose the Dodo. It must be because it is so famous and representative. I just don’t know what Mauritius will think after hearing that a group of dodos have been raised in a Chinese zoo.
"In addition, in August 2016, the world's most complete preserved dodo bone was auctioned for 4.4 million yuan." Fan Weishen added.
Everyone's breathing became even more rapid. A skeleton can be sold for more than four million. What about the living one? Oh my gosh, these birds are so expensive.
"Crazy, crazy, I'm going crazy."
"Oh my god, where did Su Jing get it?"
"How valuable are these dodos? When Mauritius heard about it, he was probably going crazy with excitement. I'm afraid he was willing to pay a sky-high price to buy them back."
"It goes without saying that not only Mauritius, but other countries are also willing to buy them. If you buy one or two, you can support a tourist city. They are even more rare than giant pandas."
"How can it be sold? It should be like a giant panda. The most it can be is rented out. I'm afraid it's just a two-year lease, and the price will be sky-high."
"I'm right, this trip is worth it." Qin Xulan laughed.
"It's really worth it." Zhou Lan looked over and her dissatisfaction had long since disappeared, leaving only excitement. She took out her mobile phone and kept taking pictures, and even asked Qin Xulan to take a photo of her and the Dodo. The amusement park and other things have long been forgotten. What is there to do and when not to go to the amusement park? But how rare is it to see an extinct species
Zhou Lan also felt a little emotional in her heart. Unfortunately, she thought that Su Jing could not come up with any other gimmicks except using her pets to support the show. She also thought that Su Jing could come up with other zoos. Now that she thinks about it, she How narrow-minded is your thinking? As a mortal, it is better not to speculate on the thoughts of gods and men.
"Nima, this Su Jing is so unbelievable." The young man dressed fashionably and wearing earrings was sweating on his forehead.
"I really have a feeling now that this Su Jing is really a god. It seems a little bad that we are always investigating him." Another young man felt a little guilty, as if he had offended a god. Combined with Su Jing's various unnatural behaviors in the past, plus the fact that he was able to bring about so many extinct species, is this something a mortal can do
"Stop making sarcastic remarks, let's just report it truthfully." said the gentle young man wearing glasses. In fact, after seeing the former president, he didn't want to mess with Su Jing anymore. He felt that he couldn't be an opponent at all, but he was Huo Yunshu single-handedly promoted him and was very kind to him. He followed Huo Yunshu and couldn't help himself.
News about the dodo quickly spread to the Internet. Combined with various rare and even extinct animals, it caused an even greater sensation. More and more people came to Zhongyun Zoo. Those illegal scalpers are crazy with joy.
Ye Bo also quickly learned the news. The Internet spread quickly, but the car he was riding in was still so slow. He was still stuck on the road, and he was going crazy with anxiety.
