With Miracle passing through the most dangerous time after birth safely, and showing various dynamics on Weibo, Lingyuan Zoo has begun to gain some fame among some relatively large zoos in China.
At the beginning, everyone was in the mentality of "who is this?", and they hadn't matched up with the animals that were on the hot search before. After all, the information age receives too much information every day. A zoo that independently breeds emperor penguins.
Especially when Duan Jiaze contacted the zoo that sent the information, they thought that Duan Jiaze's egg would definitely die.
Unexpectedly, all of these hatched. Even if I asked other zoos for help later, the success rate is too high. Is it a one-time hatching success
Judging from the videos and pictures shared by the official blog, this chick is still very strong.
There are some zoos that have an impression of Lingyuan, but they know about Lingyuan based on their popularity in other aspects, or they have cooperated with Lingyuan in introducing animals.
Everyone inquired about each other, but found that no domestic zoo with breeding capabilities had provided assistance, and there were only a few zoos in the country, and they could be counted. But I didn't think much about it, because it might also be technology imported from abroad.
No matter what, it can prove the strength of Lingyuan. Donghai City, where it is located, is a seaside city.
At this time, I followed the vine and found out that Lingyuan's technology is really good, and he has also participated in the successful rescue of Chinese white dolphins. In the industry, sometimes the size of a zoo is not the only thing that is valued, but also its academic and technical strength.
Coupled with the discovery of Lingyuan's previous Internet celebrity deeds, after matching the number, I knew that Lingyuan did it. This rapidly rising, not too big zoo has entered the vision of many old zoos.
Some colleagues contacted and wanted to exchange experience in emperor penguin breeding with Lingyu. After all, this technology has not been developed in China for a long time.
Duan Jiaze doesn't have any technology, it all depends on Lu Ya's solar energy. But he did have some ideas in his mind. Compared to before, Duan Jiaze obediently followed the plans provided by the Hope Project. Now he is thinking more and more.
After a lot of introduction, I feel that it is really cost-effective to do breeding, especially for rare animals, not to mention the achievements in animal protection.
The rare animals you breed can be sold to other zoos if you can’t keep them in your own garden. The price depends on the rarity. The high ones, like those animals under national first-class protection, start at hundreds of thousands.
This includes providing technical advice, which may also be charged. What's more, we exchange with other domestic and foreign zoos, especially foreign zoos, and exchange animals that we don't have.
Duan Jiaze also wants to set up a breeding center, preferably for birds, mainly emperor penguins, not just because of a successful breeding experience.
Emperor penguins are relatively difficult to breed, the price is not low, and they are well-known. They are very popular in major zoos.
Of course, you can't just rely on Lu Ya, but there is such a person you can rely on, plus Duan Jiaze's animal medical skills and the soon-to-be obtained animal heart, after much deliberation, you can't waste it.
He can introduce some more adult emperor penguins from other zoos as the signboard of the Polar Pavilion. This helps to improve the extremely low hatching rate. It takes four years for emperor penguins to reach sexual maturity, and they hatch once a year. After a few years, more penguins can be harvested.
In addition, there are some other popular birds that can also be implemented according to this plan.
This is a long-term plan that will take time to realize, and there are still many technicians. Therefore, Duan Jiaze was not in a hurry, and included it in his plan first, and developed it slowly. Even if he couldn't become a breeding center in the end, he would definitely not lose money when he bought the penguins.
…
In this thriving atmosphere, the popular science education hall of Lingyuan Zoo opened grandly, and welcomed many primary and middle school students from the city and surrounding counties and urban areas. For this reason, Lingyuan also recruited a group of commentators.
When seeing the contracts of the new employees, Duan Jiaze also found out that Huang Qi's contract for that year was about to expire.
Last summer, Huang Qi came to Lingyuan in a trance because of being haunted by wronged souls. Because she could find peace here, she forced herself to stay. Later, after Duan Jiaze made it clear, he chose to take a vacation here and repay his kindness.
During this period, Huang Qi can be said to have helped Duan Jiaze a lot, and brought him a group of backbones, not to mention being able to take care of himself, but also supporting the operation of the spirit circle. There is no need for Duan Jiaze to be the head of the garden.
Duan Jiaze was very grateful to Huang Qi. When he realized that the contract was about to expire, he found Huang Qi to have a deep talk. Huang Qi was in his prime, and he still had a bright future to fight for. If he had been on vacation or volunteered for a year, he should go back.
Hearing Duan Jiaze mentioned the contract, Huang Qi showed a dazed expression. If the director didn't say anything, he really didn't remember that his contract was about to expire, and that one year had passed so quickly, like a dream.
At this time, Huang Qi didn't seem to need to stay anymore, although he was full of reluctance.
Yesterday he was still thinking about organizing the student summer camp and giving advice to Duan Jiaze's breeding center plan. He didn't realize that his deadline was up at all, and he would no longer participate in the growth and construction of Lingyuan.
"Time flies so fast..." Huang Qi said with emotion, "I would like to thank the director for taking care of me this year."
"It should be me thanking you." Duan Jiaze said, "If it weren't for you, we would never have developed so smoothly."
The two confided their hearts to each other, but they both kept smiling. After all, this is a good thing for Huang Qi to return to the normal track, and it is not a farewell. I don't want to look too sad.
Duan Jiaze patted Huang Qi on the shoulder, and said half-jokingly: "Don't worry, Lingyuan will definitely open the hotel in the future, come and play as you please."
Many new employees did not know the agreement, but only knew that one of the pillars of Lingyuan was leaving. At this time, many people heard how powerful Huang Qi was before, and they thought it was no wonder he was so slippery. Then there was no way for him to leave. In the zoo It can't compare to his old career with a bright future.
Everyone held a grand farewell party for Astragalus. During the banquet, people kept toasting Astragalus wine and expressing all kinds of true feelings.
Huang Qi was a big man, his eyes were swollen from crying, and he couldn't maintain his previous smile. He held Duan Jiaze's hand and said drunkenly, "Director, I really don't want to leave!"
Duan Jiaze hugged Huangqi's shoulders, saw him cry, and said with emotion: "Huangqi! I know!"
Huang Qi burst into tears, and said in pain: "No, what do you know! You eat Jiajia Restaurant every day, what should I eat when I go back!!"
Duan Jiaze: "..."
When Huang Qi thought that she would have to live a stressful work life in the future, she would never be able to breathe the fresh air of Cape Mountain and get along with cute animals like this...
The worst part is that every meal can only eat dishes that are not as good as one-tenth of the Shennong series and Luojia series, and he suddenly feels that life is hopeless!
His Shennong five-grain rice, his Luojia lotus root sandwich, and his stir-fried purple bamboo shoots! !
The corner of Duan Jiaze's mouth twitched: there's nothing wrong with it, the last thing I want to do is give up delicious food. It might be the same for him himself. Now that technology is so advanced, it is not so convenient to connect with friends three or four times, but the food at Jiajia Restaurant is not so convenient.
In this regard, Duan Jiaze could only give comfort, "When I leave, I will decorate you with more bamboo shoots, and learn to cook by myself..."

Sending off the great hero Huang Qi, the Lingyuan Zoo welcomes the students of the summer camp again.
The summer camp will be open for more than half a month. Each period will last for three days and two nights. It will enroll 50 campers. The requirement is for children aged 6 to 12. The fee is 680 yuan per person. This price is really not expensive. After all, every meal is served at Jiajia Restaurant. After the meal, camp uniforms will be included, and surrounding souvenirs will be given away.
In view of the strong appeal of Lingyuan in the local area and surrounding areas, there is no need to worry about signing up. Many families are willing to send their children to stay for two or three days, and some of them go in groups of children from relatives and friends.
In addition to popular science education, the summer camp activities include feeding animals, intimate contact, staying overnight in the aquarium, science and education hall and other projects. If you don’t want to sleep in a tent, you can also sleep in the dormitory, but most of the children are willing to sleep in tents.
The first batch of children in this summer camp will also be the first batch of tourists who are lucky enough to see the spirit of the night.
Except for the employees, basically only those who came to make trouble have seen it before, and now they are all in the hospital.
Zhao Bo's family are loyal fans of Lingyuan. Of course, Zhao Bo and his cousin Zhang Shun not only signed up, but also signed up for the first issue. On the morning of the opening day, they happily went to Lingyuan with their bags on their backs.
For Zhao Bo, who comes to Lingyuan at least once a month, he is already familiar with the road here, and he can be regarded as seeing the development of Lingyuan. It is also because there are surprises every time, which attracts him to come often.
Zhao Bo and Zhang Shun, who are in the fifth grade this year, are the older children in the summer camp, and they have a lively personality, so they quickly became the leaders. They introduced to the new campers that they once visited the dilapidated Lingyuan Zoo experience.
Both of them have pictures and the truth, and they took out their mobile phones to show everyone. They didn't visit this place with the company of the bird, and they suddenly became more prestigious for no reason.
Because it was the first phase, Duan Jiaze also came to follow for a while to see the situation.
Seeing Duan Jiaze, Zhao Bo pointed at him (thinking) and whispered to everyone: "You know? That's the head of the garden! He showed us around before, and his hair wasn't curly back then!"
Children: "Wow—"
Duan Jiaze: "..."
This Zhao Bo, and his younger brother Zhang Shun, Duan Jiaze really had a little impression, after all, he was one of the early fans.
But I've known him for so long, why did he only have curly hair? Why do other children want to wow? !
…
On this first day, the teacher of the summer camp first took the children to visit the science and education hall, played two games in the afternoon, and then visited the veterinary room.
Generally speaking, zoo summer camp children can visit the veterinarian to treat small animals. But in Lingyuan, because sick animals are so rare, they can only see Xu Xin examining pregnant monkeys.
There are also special benefits, watching feeding the baby emperor penguins who are about one month old - this item is personally visited by the director.
Dozens of children gathered around the all-glass wall to watch, discussing non-stop.
Duan Jiaze was wearing a mask, sitting next to the treatment table, and feeding Miracle fish paste with a needle. Miracle's weight has increased from more than 300 grams to more than two catties, and he can't hold it with two hands. His body is round and cute, and he is eating fish paste with his neck held high.
As a foolish and bold emperor penguin who dared to yell at a python just a few days after its birth, Miracle completely ignored the human children outside the glass wall, and had no fear of strange creatures at all.
This is also understandable, after all, its father is the largest in the spirit circle, and it can basically walk sideways here. If godfather is also counted, then it is not a bad idea to walk sideways in the fairy world...
Xu Xin was very envious. He had already checked the female monkey, and the female monkey was in his arms, with her hands still on his neck, looking very close.
But what you can't get is the best. When Xu Xin saw the fluffy little emperor penguin, he really wanted to change it with Duan Jiaze.
"Director..." Xu Xin said shyly, "Can you feed me a little?"
Duan Jiaze looked at Xu Xin in embarrassment. He really wanted to agree, but Lu Ya would definitely go crazy if he found out. Even if Lu Ya is not here, as long as Duan Jiaze dares to let Xu Xin feed him, Lu Ya will know.
For the safety of Xu Xin's life, Duan Jiaze finally declined, "Just adjust the fish paste for me."
The food intake of little emperor penguins is increasing day by day, and now they have to feed about one-fifth of their body weight in food every day, and a large needle is no longer enough.
Xu Xin turned around desolately, heartbroken enough.
After a while, Duan Jiaze finished feeding a tube of fish paste, and when Xu Xin brought a new one, Miracle kept barking at Duan Jiaze, pressing his head against his hand, and its head moved up and down flexibly, making the children outside laugh Again and again.
Duan Jiaze pinched Miracle's fluffy flat wings, and moved his head closer.
With big feet, Miracle slapped Duan Jiaze's face and rubbed against him through the mask.
"Wow—" The children in the summer camp were all stuck to the glass wall, looking at Duan Jiaze enviously.
"I also want to open a zoo in the future. It's great. I can feed baby penguins." A little girl said innocently, her wish was very simple.
"It's called a miracle!" Zhao Bo turned his head to show off his knowledge to the little girl, "It's because its birth is a miracle. Emperor penguins live in the Antarctic. Did you know that the Antarctic is very cold, with minus forty Too much."
The little girl was only seven years old, and she said with a confused face, "Wow, but the East China Sea is so hot, was the baby penguin born in the refrigerator?"
Zhao Bo was also uncertain, scratching his head and said: "There should be artificial ice..."
The teacher of the summer camp heard this discussion, and said with a smile: "Zhao Bo is really good, and he also knows the temperature of Antarctica. But there is no need to put it in the refrigerator, and there is no need to make ice for the time being. Little penguins are also afraid of cold when they are born, so The fur on their bodies is thick and dense, and they spend most of their time hiding in their parents' pouches, where the temperature is over 30 degrees. When the little penguins grow up and move to the polar pavilion that imitates their living environment, we will Lower the temperature there."
But most zoos can't simulate it exactly like the Antarctic, which is minus 20 degrees, so many emperor penguins will not breed. It's easy to solve this point in Lingyuan, and any great immortal can also cool down.
Zhang Shun asked, "Teacher, can we see little penguins swimming today?"
Although the penguin can't fly, its short wings are very powerful in the water, helping it to forage underwater.
The teacher at the summer camp let out an "uh" and said, "There's no way, the little penguin needs to learn how to swim from its parents. We Miracle has no parents, so we will have the breeder uncle to teach it to swim. When Miracle learns to swim, you guys Let's see it again."
"Wow... that's great!" The little girl became more determined that she wanted to open a zoo. After all, the breeder uncle can not only feed the penguins, but also teach them to swim.
Duan Jiaze, who was feeding his son, wanted to say, more than that, if you are lucky, you might even see penguins flying in the sky.
We are miraculous. In the future, it may be an almighty goose by sea, land and air...
However, the bigger impact on the children was at night.
…
At dinner time, everyone ate together at Jiajia Restaurant, which was closed at night and only served summer camps.
While waiting for the food to be served, Duan Jiaze sat aside and chatted with the children, asking for some feedback. These children really like Duan Jiaze, because he has fed penguins and just now showed everyone how to get close to a big obedient white horse.
At this time, the restaurant suddenly became noisy, and when I turned around, I saw Su riding a white alpaca on the avenue in the garden...
An extremely cute little girl is already eye-catching enough, not to mention she is riding an alpaca.
"Wow-"
"Damn it! Alpaca!"
"That little sister is so beautiful..."
Whether it's a little boy or a little girl, they all look envious.
Duan Jiaze sweated for a moment, the reaction was much warmer than what he and Jiguang got.
Su commanded the alpaca to stop at the door, then turned over neatly and landed firmly. She patted the alpaca, and the alpaca knelt down to rest at the door, waiting for Su by the way.
In the eyes of a group of children, Yousu is their peers, and they even think that Yousu is also here to attend the summer camp, and they all look at her expectantly.
It's a pity that little Lolita walked directly to Duan Jiaze's side, so everyone's eyes also focused on her.
Duan Jiaze: "What's wrong?"
You Su half-truthfully said: "You're not here, the cafeteria is so bad, and Taoist Lord has been teasing people."
Duan Jiaze: "..."
Yousu took the opportunity to sit next to Duan Jiaze, and it seemed that he was going to eat here.
Duan Jiaze said blackly: "Dao Jun is crazy again?"
There was Su Xuelu who spoke, a little yin and yang, "I won't feed my son, and ran to eat with the human cubs."
Duan Jiaze: "..."
