My Live Life at the Zoo

Chapter 380 An animal with a chrysanthemum growing on its nose!

"So fast? Let's go, let's go!"

Li Xiao didn't care about eating and got up immediately.

At the same time, move the live broadcast camera away from Green Peacock Xiaoling, and transfer it to yourself.

The sudden change of the camera immediately dissatisfied the tourists in the live broadcast room.

"what's the situation?"

"Where's Green Peacock Hill? I want to see Xiaoling!"

"I was looking at Xiao Ling who was sleeping soundly with great interest, when the camera suddenly turned, and the director's big face appeared in front of me, which shocked me immediately."

"Who isn't!"

"I'm a little heartbroken, I'm so scared, I don't care, the principal must compensate me, if the principal is willing to be my boyfriend, I can let the past go!"

"Don't panic, there is another batch of new animals coming to the zoo, I will take you to see them."

Li Xiao explained patiently.

Hearing that there were new animals, the tourists in the live broadcast room immediately relaxed a lot.

There is a saying: what is not available is always in turmoil.

Although the Green Peacock Ridge is a national first-class protected animal, and it has regained its confidence and has become more beautiful than ever before, but the tourists in the live broadcast room are inevitably full of curiosity in the face of the animals they have never seen before.

……

The entrance to the Lonely Mountain Zoo.

At this time, it was already overcrowded.

Because many new animals were sent today.

Li Xiao sold a total of nine kinds of animals before, three kinds were delivered yesterday, and all the other six kinds have been delivered today.

Small otters, star-nosed moles, seals, Pacific barreleye fish, anglerfish, and black soft bony fish are all displayed at the entrance of the zoo. Each is cuter and weirder than the other, which attracts people's attention.

However, worried that these animals had already traveled a long distance, they were a little tired, and they were even more physically and mentally exhausted after being watched by too many people, so Tao Yaoyao sent a group of staff here immediately, forming a crowd around them The wall protects these six animals and waits patiently for Li Xiao's arrival.

When Li Xiao arrived, the place was crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, making it difficult to move forward.

Fortunately, the tourists were very knowledgeable, and after seeing Li Xiao, they all gave way to a passage.

"Why are there so many people watching this time?"

After approaching, Li Xiao couldn't help but look around, and then asked Tao Yaoyao beside him.

Tao Yaoyao said helplessly: "It's not that the animals you bought this time are too rare. Except for seals and small otters, I have never seen others, and they look so weird. The tourists are naturally full of curiosity."

"Haha, this is the effect I want. The more unusual it is, the more tourists will be attracted to come and enjoy it."

As soon as Li Xiao finished speaking, the tourists in the live broadcast room had already exploded.

"Damn it! The director actually bought six mice!"

"The gray ones are really mice, even the same size!"

"I said to the head of the garden, what are you doing with all this unreasonable money? There are many mice in my house. If you give me the money, I will send the mice in the house to you immediately."

"Wait! These don't look like mice?"

"Please take a closer look, your mouse has a chrysanthemum on its nose?"

"Then what is this? A chrysanthemum mouse?"

The star-nosed mole that was the closest to Li Xiao was the first thing visitors noticed in the live broadcast room.

They were placed in the wooden box, full of curiosity about everything, each and every one of them was eager to try, trying to climb out to see what the surroundings looked like.

The star-nosed mole is a small animal, weighing only about 50 grams, which is smaller than the house mouse.

Only the adult star-nosed mole is twice the size of the house mouse.

The six star-nosed mole rats in front of me are all about the same size as the mice we often meet at home, so they are not yet adults.

Three males and three females, the distribution is very reasonable.

At least Li Xiao won't have to worry about their pairing in the future.

And at the tip of their nose, there are 21 tentacles surrounding the tip of the nose, like the light of a star, hence the name.

"What chrysanthemum mice, they're called star-nosed moles!"

After Li Xiao approached, he slowly stretched out his hand to stroke these star-nosed mole rats. They were in good condition, and they were not afraid of strangers at all. They seemed to feel very comfortable when Li Xiao stroked them, posing in a lazy posture.

"The star-nosed mole is known as one of the ugliest animals in the world!"

While stroking it, Li Xiao said, "The reason why I say that is because the tip of its nose looks like a little star at first glance, but it really looks like a chrysanthemum.

Please note that the chrysanthemum mentioned here is not a flower.

While these little tentacles are a little unsightly, star-nosed mole rats can sweep the underworld with them.

Through these tentacles, the star-nosed mole can find prey in a completely dark environment, and the ability to find prey through the tentacles is several times higher than other mole rats' ability to prey by sight alone.Scientists at Vanderbilt University in the United States have discovered through research that the star-nosed mole is the only member of the star-nosed mole family and the star-nosed mole genus, and it is also the fastest-moving mammalian predator in the world.

With the help of a high-speed camera, it can be seen that the star-shaped nose can touch more than a dozen places per second. Therefore, the star-nosed mole can complete the whole process of determining the location of the prey and hunting the prey in an ultra-short quarter of a second. process.

Star-nosed moles live primarily in moist environments and feed on small invertebrates, aquatic insects, earthworms, and molluscs.

They are found in the American continent, so they are rarely encountered in our country. "

"No wonder I rarely see it in China."

"Actually, at first glance, it's quite cute."

"It's so cute, it's so small, I really want to hold it in my hand and squeeze it."

As the camera zoomed in and observed closely, the tourists in the live broadcast room gradually felt that the star-nosed mole was cute and cute, and it was still very fun.

Li Xiao said: "Star-nosed moles are not only cute, they are actually quite capable despite their small size.

First, they have high IQ, are very flexible and cunning, because they are afraid of being caught, so every time they move, they are sneaky. When they come out of the hole, they crawl around the hole with their two front paws, look left and right to ensure safety. out of the hole.

At the same time, they like to establish a fixed route between their nests, food and water sources, so that they can escape quickly when danger comes.

Second, they have strong eyesight.

Although most of the time they do not rely on their eyes to determine the location of their prey, the star-nosed eyes can see things close to 100 meters in the deep sea.

Third, the star-nosed mole can also use its sense of smell underwater.

Some aquatic creatures have a sense of smell underwater, such as lobsters.

However, scientists did not know whether mammals had the ability to smell underwater, so many people thought they did not.

Later, when researchers at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee in the United States used high-speed cameras to study the underwater behavior of star-nosed moles, they noticed that they continuously spit out bubbles from their nostrils and then sucked them back quickly, with a frequency of ten times per second. This is very similar to the sniffing behavior of mice when they track prey on land.

In this way, the star-nosed mole became the first mammal to be found to use its sense of smell underwater to track prey. "

"Fuck! Awesome Klass!"

"This little guy is better than me, at least in the water, I can't see that far."

"As if you could smell it in water."

"Unbelievable!"

“Nature is truly amazing!”

Some science popularization made tourists marvel at this humble little animal.

In order to survive on the earth, these animals, no matter whether they are vegetarian or meat, no matter how big or small, all have their own unique abilities.

On the other hand, human beings seem a little ordinary.

Once human beings are left naked in the wild, it will be difficult to survive.

Not only is it difficult to eat raw food, the stomach cannot adapt to raw water in the wild, and even the skin cannot resist severe cold and heat, and there are many other phenomena like this.

Because of this, in recent years, many people have begun to doubt whether the theory of evolution is correct, doubt whether human beings are a product of the earth, and doubt whether human beings were brought by aliens.

After all, in the theory of evolution, a large part of it crosses layers and cannot continue with human beings.

Secondly, more cultural relics have been excavated in recent years. People have discovered that some cultural relics cannot be completed even with current technology, and some things are almost exactly the same as modern ones, which once caused more and more people to question it.

Li Xiao didn't think too much, because Tao Yaoyao had already brought food after listening to his science popularization.

A big plate of fat and tender earthworms!
After bumping along the way for so long, the physical strength of these animals is also extremely exhausted, and some food must be replenished as soon as possible.

Here, Li Xiao and Tao Yaoyao are happily feeding six cute star-nosed mole rats.

A staff member came trotting over there.

"Director, go and have a look there!"

"What happened?"

"Those two little otters won't eat, I don't know why!"

"Oh? Go and see!"

Li Xiao was a little puzzled, and walked over slowly.

In fact, it's only about ten meters away.

I walked over and saw that the two little otters I bought, one male and one female, really didn't eat.

The staff had already placed their favorite fish and shrimp in front of them, but they just remained unmoved.

Tao Yaoyao asked suspiciously: "Why is this happening? Is there something wrong with these two little otters? Or is it because they have lost their appetite after going through bumps all the way?"

"It's okay to have no appetite, and it's not a big problem."

Li Xiao saw the problem at a glance, and said, "Hurry up and bring two basins of water! Remember, it must be clean water!"

After the staff heard it, they ran away quickly.

Come back in a few minutes.

According to Li Xiao's instructions, two basins of clean water were placed in front of the little otter.

After seeing the water, the expressions on the faces of the two little otters immediately changed, and they rushed into one of the basins in unison, and then...

He kept holding the water with his small paws and rubbed his body gently.

Finally, he patted Rourou's face with his paw.

The expression is cute.

The action is cute.

Big eyes Bling Bling's.

It looks very much like the emoticon package that is popular all over the Internet.

"It turned out that I wanted to wash up before eating. The little guy likes to be clean!"

"It's so cute, it's bleeding!"

"I've already recorded it, and it just happened to be made into a new emoticon package."

"Wipe the incense before going to bed, it will change the brewing."

The tourists in the live broadcast room were all mesmerized by this funny and cute scene.

however……

The cuter ones are yet to come.

After taking a bath, two little otters came out of the basin together.

Grabbed the small fish that was fed, and finally started to eat it deliciously.

Every time they ate a mouthful of small fish, they still lay down next to the water basin and took a sip of water.

One mouthful of fish, one mouthful of water.

No delay at all.

"Good guy, they still eat soup and rice."

Li Xiao was amused.

The same is true for the tourists in the live broadcast room.

"Good guy, even animals know that soft rice is delicious these days."

"It's pretty good at cooking. After eating a small fish, you can drink water for a second, and you won't stay for a second. This otter is really particular about it!"

"This guy is very much like my dad, with a sip of beef slices and a sip of wine."

"These five little fingers are so cute, they look like human hands."

"Otter: We have bad teeth, one mouthful of meat and one mouthful of soup, don't worry, can't we?"

"I like this eating and broadcasting, and I have an appetite watching it."

Looking at the rolling barrage, Li Xiao laughed and said, "Everyone, don't think they are cute, just think they are harmless, they are one of the five worlds of crocodiles!

The two little otters in front of me are not adults yet, they look only as big as puppies.

Don't think that people have always been so small. Once they grow up, they can reach between 1.5 meters and 1.7 meters. This is a terrifying size. If you want to ravage a crocodile, you can easily. "

"Is this gadget so powerful?"

Tao Yaoyao who was standing aside was shocked.

"Of course!"

Li Xiao nodded seriously, and said: "But you don't have to worry, otters are still very docile, and they are easy to be domesticated, and domesticated otters are very obedient."

Li Xiao's words made Tao Yaoyao heave a long sigh of relief.

But Li Xiao continued: "I believe many people have seen what otters look like, what they like and what they don't like, and they have heard of them to some extent, so I will say something different.

Most otters hide in their holes during the day and come out to move at night.Except for the mating period, they usually live alone.

In order to find more food, in addition to the breeding season, it also often migrates from one river to another, or from upstream to downstream.

Otters are proficient in water and are good at swimming and diving. Their soft body and thick and long tail can reduce the resistance in water movement. When swimming, the forelimbs are close to the body, and the hind legs and tail are used to push water. It undulates like a wave, and its posture is very similar to that of an eel.

The swimming speed is very fast, it can swim more than 50 meters per minute, and the lifting and turning are very flexible. It can move forward and backward, left and right in the water, and roll freely. It also likes to swim like a circle, rolling up the mud at the bottom of the water. Small fish in the sand or water will jump on the water surface like a dolphin in an emergency.

Because of this, it was often mistaken for a water monster by people in the past! "
