Those Years I Opened a Zoo

Chapter 82: I teach emperor penguins how to swim

Views:

Miracle was infected with the breath of the Golden Crow since he was a child, and what he absorbed was also the aura of fire. Although he was not as good as Shancai's fire spirit body, he also cultivated the instinct to be close to fire.

Water and fire are incompatible, which leads to the disgust and panic when Miracle goes into the water.

In its conception, it doesn't feel that water is close at all, and it was not raised by a couple of penguins, but hatched by a golden crow... So, it probably thinks that it will become a golden crow when it grows up

If this is the case, the misunderstanding is huge. Flying or not being able to fly is another matter. With Daojun's stubbornness, he probably needs to send a goose to the sky even if he practices a magic weapon, but what can he do if he breathes fire.

Duan Jiaze was still standing in the pool, scratching his head, thinking, but Dad, I also like water very much, why didn't he inherit me a bit

Xiao Su said weakly: "Director, if penguins can't learn to swim, are they considered disabled?"

Duan Jiaze: "It shouldn't be counted... No, I believe that Miracle will definitely be able to learn to swim."

Duan Jiaze thought about it for a while, and felt that dislike and inability to learn should be two different things. As a swimming bird, free pursuit underwater should be written into the miracle gene. An emperor penguin can't swim, is that plausible

Thinking of this, Duan Jiaze found a basin and filled it with water, "Come on, let's get acquainted with it first."

Duan Jiaze stretched out his hand, and Lu Ya squatted down, putting the miracle on the ground.

Miracle flopped his feet twice, and found that Lu Ya had to put himself down, so he had to land, and then hid behind Lu Ya's feet.

Duan Jiaze held the fat bird, kissed it on the head, brought it over and put it on the edge of the basin, "Don't worry, take it step by step, today you have to touch the water, what are you afraid of in such shallow water? "

Miracle looked at Duan Jiaze with two black peas-like eyes, which seemed to be shining with a pitiful luster.

Duan Jiaze seriously suspected that Miracle was too young, and couldn't tell the difference between dislike, fear, and so on.

"It's useless to look at me," Duan Jiaze said with a straight face, "Come on."

Duan Jiaze scooped up the water with his hand.

Miracle stretched out his head a little, bent his head down, touched the water with his pointed beak, dipped some water, and immediately retracted. Then he stretched out his big foot again, stepped on the water, and immediately pulled it back.

When I pulled it back, the movement was too violent, the center of gravity was unstable, and I fell down, but I quickly got up again.

Seeing that it was standing still, Duan Jiaze shoved it. Miracle was pushed forward a little, and then took a step back cheekily, as if he refused to touch the water again.

Duan Jiaze almost laughed angrily, "Is this considered touching?"

Xiao Su looked at it and laughed wildly, why does it really seem like that.

"Come in for me." Duan Jiaze hugged the miracle and carried it into the basin.

The water was just soaked in Miracle's buttocks, even if Miracle lay down, it would be fine. But as soon as it entered, it was stunned that its two feet drew a whirlwind of water, and it was so excited that it splashed Duan Jiaze's face.

"Cough!" Duan Jiaze picked up Miracle with both hands, so he couldn't get rid of the water.

Miracle chirped aggrievedly.

Lu Ya watched from the side, and said seriously: "It doesn't like water, what do you have to force it to do?"

With Xiao Su at the side, Lu Ya didn't say the whole thing. He thought that if he couldn't swim, he couldn't swim. No one in the Three Realms dared to bully his son just because he couldn't swim, and he didn't have to worry about food and drink.

In the future, follow him to learn to go to heaven, wouldn't you have a lot of future.

"It may not like it, but it has to learn to swim." Duan Jiaze glanced at him, "It's a penguin, it can't be a landlubber... a landlubber."

Lu Ya: "..."

Duan Jiaze stroked Miracle's fur, then put it in the basin again. This time the miraculous action was not so big, he stepped on the bottom and kept digging, as if trying to get all the water out.

Duan Jiaze is not for the title of Almighty in Sea, Land and Air, it is impossible for Miracle to grow up and still live in Lu Ya's room.

It has already moulted, and has a full body of feathers that are waterproof and cold-proof. After a while, it should live in the Polar Pavilion, where there is also a pool, and there will be many companions in the future.

They raised penguins, and their nature was twisted. It is an accident that water and fire cannot be tolerated, but even if they don't rely on underwater predation in the future, they must learn to swim, at least they can't drown, right

Otherwise, you don’t even need to talk about finding a wife. Emperor penguins are taught by their parents to swim.

Xiao Su recorded a moving picture and murmured: "I've never seen a penguin so afraid of water..."

Miracle took turns taking his feet back again, and hated the way they got wet, "chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp!"

Duan Jiaze said indifferently, "I don't understand."

Miracle:_(:з」∠)_

After staying like this for ten minutes, the first swimming lesson was considered over. Duan Jiaze wiped Miracle with a towel, and complained, "Those who don't know about this formation might think it's a pot of boiling water."

Make it look like he's abusing...that's embarrassing.

Miracle leaned on Duan Jiaze's arm wearily as if he had experienced some great toil.

Lu Ya: "What do you want from it? It's already excellent!"

Duan Jiaze: "..."

This is blind bragging. If you dip in the water for a while, you will be excellent. Wouldn't the director be an Olympic champion after taking a bath

Turning around, Xiao Su made a few animations and posted them on the Internet.

Lingyuan Zoo: #奇迹成长日记# Today is Miracle's first swimming lesson...

The accompanying Jiugongge animation includes many scenes, similar to Duan Jiaze receiving a miracle underwater, and then the miracle panicked as soon as it touched a little water, and jumped onto the feet of a person on the shore; Duan Jiaze changed the water basin, Miracle splashed water on his face; Duan Jiaze forced Miracle to stand in the water, Miracle's feet struggled to dig water...

Comment:

sofa! Come and see the director's wet play!

hhhhhhhh are you mistaken, is this a penguin? What about the fastest-swimming bird

What the hell is 2333's focus on wet play!

Yes, this wave is very stable. Humans teach penguins to swim.

above, and penguins can't learn it.

Are you kidding, is this fucking swimming? Except for the first one, the rest are all washing their feet.

Miracle seems to dislike water very much, is it because it was artificially raised

Miracle is probably still confused at the beginning: Is there so much water to drink today

Laughing to death, is this a miraculous swimming lesson, or the Passion of the Principal? The director of your garden is so embarrassed, he was splashed with water all kinds of things!

It is really not easy to artificially breed emperor penguins. You have to be a father and a mother, and you have to guide the instinct of the little penguins~

Come on Miracle, no matter from your ancestral home Antarctica, or the East China Sea where you were born, you must not know how to swim!

An emperor penguin does not like to go into the water, this topic has aroused the interest of the general public. Many people know that the emperor penguin is the bird with the fastest swimming speed and the deepest dive. Penguins who don't like water are like flying birds who are afraid of heights, which makes people feel a little funny.

Later, more and more cheered for Miracle. After all, they watched Miracle grow from hatching to such a large size remotely, and it was such a meaningful thing: witnessing the emperor penguin who hates water learning to swim.

Xiao Su also took pictures of Miracle's learning progress every day and posted them on the Internet. This one is quite popular. The chubby penguin is always wrestling because of his unsteady standing. Before that, Miracle’s Daily was loved by many people, and it’s even more so now.

The water in the basin was getting more and more day by day, and Miracle became more and more aggrieved staying in it.

In order not to let himself get wet every time, Duan Jiaze also spent a lot of time comforting Miracle, so that he would not be so excited when he went into the water, and avoid causing him a psychological shadow.

Before going into the water, you have to feed the shrimp meat, hold it in your arms and feel it, hold your cheeks and rub it, pinch the tip of the wing and knead it... This can range from ten minutes to half an hour, and then you can reluctantly go into the water and wait for a while. After ten minutes, he chirped to come up.

After coming up, you have to repeat the work of feeding shrimp or fish, touching, rubbing, rubbing, and hugging before it is finished.

Duan Jiaze called it: ten minutes into the water, two hours of charging.

Every time Xiao Su saw such a soft and cute little penguin, her heart would melt. How can Amway, who is crazy about selling emperor penguins on Weibo, be so cute? Before entering the water, you must act like a baby and let the dad hug and rub it. The soft and thick fur is so tempting to be rubbed by the director, and it feels very good to the touch!

After spending a few days getting used to the feeling of sitting in the basin, as if taking a bath, it is considered that the pre-school class is over, and you can officially go to the pool to learn to swim.

This is the real hard battle. Duan Jiaze also soaked in the water, holding Miracle to paddle on the water surface, letting him learn to use his wings. Although useless in the water, these little wings are great underwater.

The amount of exercise increased, Miracle would curl his head up and put it on Duan Jiaze's lap every time before going into the water, looking hopeless.

In fact, through contact in the water, Duan Jiaze knew that this guy had great wings and was definitely a good swimmer, but he just didn't want to learn.

"Don't babble, if you can't learn it, how about I help you find a wife and teach your baby to swim? What if you accidentally fall into the water?" Duan Jiaze said with his head down.

Miracle still looked exhausted to death, and I was very sorry for its size, which was a circle larger than its peers. This fat bird's belly was so big that it almost looked like a tumbler with legs.

I also want to know that with miraculous physical strength, it is absolutely impossible to be so tired.

After getting used to paddling with its wings, Duan Jiaze went diving with it as a reward. If you catch the ball up from the bottom of the water, you will be rewarded with a small fish.

In this way, after diving for a while, the miracle will be full. Duan Jiaze rubbed it again to complete the day's training.

I still don't like water very much, but my instincts have been stimulated, and Miracle dives like a torpedo. Duan Jiaze urged him three times before he jumped into the water, quickly dived to the bottom, and drew a swimming track.

This learning process, which lasted half a month, is really not easy.

And the netizens followed the camera to witness the miracle, from hating water to overcoming that feeling, entering the basin, entering the pool, diving, and finally swimming very fast, they all felt fascinated and moved.

"It's so inspiring, to witness a fat man become a good swimmer, woo woo woo."

"A nimble fat bird, looking at his own fat and shedding tears."

"The miracle penguin lived up to its name. It was born miraculously, hated water miraculously, and then succeeded with inspiration. This is another miracle!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Duan Jiaze pushed away Miracle who was touching his leg, Miracle took a few steps back and fell down.

Duan Jiaze was amused and speechless, squatted down and rubbed the little fat man, "It doesn't hurt."

It is common for emperor penguins to wrestle. Their size is determined by their size. It is absolutely impossible for them to move as nimbly and agilely as they do underwater. But when it comes to Miracle, you have to take it seriously, otherwise it may act like a baby.

Given Miracle's current age, it is no longer suitable to live with Duan Jiaze and Lu Ya. Although judging from the current situation, its feathers can not only withstand the sub-zero cold, but also because it has received fire-type aura, it doesn't feel uncomfortable at room temperature.

However, this is not the reason why it does not move out. If it does not move to the Polar Pavilion, it will be exposed. This old emperor penguin needs to be placed in an environment of at least 20 degrees below zero in another zoo.

Therefore, Duan Jiaze came to change Miracle's bedroom today, but encountered some minor troubles.

Wearing a thick coat, Duan Jiaze put Miracle in a cage in the polar exhibition area. As soon as he withdrew, Miracle followed him step by step, making it impossible for him to go out alone.

Seeing that no one was around, Duan Jiaze squatted down and whispered, "Son, you enjoy the air-conditioning all by yourself. What's wrong with it? It cost your father a lot of money to maintain it."

In the polar exhibition area that has not yet been opened, there is only one animal at present, and all services will revolve around it for a period of time, which is more luxurious than its father.

The miracle has grown to Duan Jiaze's knees, and the emperor penguin can reach 1.2 meters when it is an adult. It looked up at Duan Jiaze pitifully with its dark eyes, expressing its wish to live in the dormitory.

Duan Jiaze's heart ached when he saw it. Every time Miracle looked at him like this, he felt guilty. But after being taught swimming, Duan Jiaze also had a certain resistance, he rubbed a few times with a miracle in his hand, and comforted him softly.

Miracle stood where he was, watched Duan Jiaze go out, let out a heartbreaking "chirp", sat back, kicked his paws straight, and slid his fat body a few meters away on the slippery ice.

Duan Jiaze who saw this scene through the door: "..."

His son also plays a lot.

After leaving the Polar Museum, Duan Jiaze felt that something was wrong, because many tourists in front of him quickly moved in one direction, as if they were going to see some excitement.

Duan Jiaze took two steps to follow, followed to the old park, only to find that a dozen sheep from nowhere were grazing on the grass, all of them were goats, big and small, with a leisurely posture. Tourists come for them.

What they eat is not other grass. It is the pasture that Duan Jiaze asked people to turn over the old turf a month ago, and it was a reward from the side mission.

This pasture looks like ryegrass, but it is lower than ryegrass. It can reach people's ankles. It is dense and green, and it looks very gratifying. I don't know what kind it is. The great gods in the garden don't know it anyway. Although Ji Guang knew it, he couldn't convey it to him accurately.

As for the goats, the largest leader has a copper bell on its neck. It is not wild at first glance, and its two horns are long and big. However, under the watchful eyes, it is not vigilant and aggressive, and leads the other goats to eat seriously. Grass.

Tourists gathered around the goats that were grazing grass, and there were more and more people, and they looked very excited and kept taking pictures. Duan Jiaze could only be thankful that the head sheep concentrated on grazing and was not aggressive, otherwise their distance would be very dangerous.

Duan Jiaze had seen the billy goats fight with his own eyes, the horns were banging so muffled that it made people's teeth feel sour, as if he was in pain too.

At the same time, he is also very puzzled, why do these tourists still call friends to watch the goats? Still taking pictures, haven't they seen goats

At this moment, the tourists are still talking about it:

"When do you think the zoo will come and take them away?"

"I don't know, the breeder has gone somewhere, haven't you found the animal walking out..."

"Well, what kind of sheep is this? It looks like it's no different from a goat."

"Isn't it from Africa? I heard that the African animal exhibition area is about to open. This should be an African sheep."

Duan Jiaze: "..."

What the hell, why didn't he know that his zoo had sheep? What about African sheep, these are ordinary goats. I just walked into the zoo without knowing when the people at the ticket office were not paying attention.

As for the reason, Duan Jiaze looked at the pasture and remained silent. This is probably the reason...

Duan Jiaze finally understood why the tourists rushed to watch the ordinary scene of goats grazing. It turned out that someone misunderstood that these were raised animals and sneaked out, and the three of them became tigers, attracting wave after wave of people.

At this time, Duan Jiaze saw several employees rushing over.

When they received a report from a tourist that an animal had sneaked out here, they broke out in a cold sweat, which had never happened before, so they rushed over.

Seeing the group of goats in front of them, the staff members were as dumbfounded as Duan Jiaze.

Duan Jiaze greeted them, and explained the situation to the tourists: "Everyone, this is not an animal raised in our zoo, it should have been sneaked in by a sheep from a nearby village..."

When it came to this, the onlookers collectively let out a voice of disappointment.

Duan Jiaze: "..."

The crowd of onlookers was evacuated, and the sheep could not be evacuated. They tried to drive the sheep out, but there was no way.

The employee said: "Director, call the police! Let's see who lost the sheep!"

"I don't know when the owner will be found after calling the police..." Duan Jiaze said, "The villagers around here raise sheep, and they are all free-range. They put them on the mountain to eat grass for a day, and they don't come back at night. It may take several days to find the sheep I lost sheep. Let’s go to the village to find out.”

Duan Jiaze had a lot of dealings with nearby villages, so he naturally knew about these situations. It probably took a long time for these sheep to come here.

In order to completely end this little farce, Duan Jiaze had no choice but to take a photo of the sheep and send it to the village secretary's cell phone, asking for help to find out whose sheep it is, come and claim it.

The sheep-raising villagers came running up and down, and it took a long time to drive the sheep out. The hoofs of the sheep were so scratched that they almost dug a hole, which made the villagers wonder, "Governor, the grass here Is it addictive? How come they are so energetic."

Duan Jiaze laughed dryly, but he was also very defenseless. I didn't expect the goats to be able to track them from such a distance. Sure enough, the temptation of food is infinite

This batch was sent back and it's not over yet—

Because the grass in Lingyuan is fertile and beautiful, in the days to come, the cattle and sheep in the villagers’ homes also love to travel to Lingyuan to eat some grass.

Those who slipped in were fine, but the staff at the tourist service center who didn't sneak in saw them, should they stop them or not, and how should they stop them? Add a guardrail to stop the big ones but not the small ones.

So when they saw cattle and sheep "entering the house", they had no choice but to call and report.

The villagers were shocked and embarrassed at first, but then they became numb, and they couldn't stop them, so they went to Lingyuan to bring their cattle and sheep home. In view of this, those who come to find cattle and sheep do not charge tickets...

This can be regarded as a small feature of Lingyuan. "Other people's cattle and sheep" and "rogue sparrows" have become the landscape of exotic animals in Lingyou.
