Chapter 371 Old Investigator: There are wolves in Antarctica!

After bypassing a slope, the scene behind the iceberg appeared in front of several people.

Hundreds of penguins are lying on the ground, enjoying the few sunshine in Antarctica.

After Wen Wanwan asked Shen Nan to record the location and approximate number, he started to introduce it to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"The penguin in front of us is called Gentoo penguin, also known as golden penguin and white-browed penguin."

"They are the fastest swimming species in the penguin family, reaching speeds of 36 kilometers per hour. They are also the well-deserved swimming champions among birds."

"Compared to the group that just fought, the temper of the gentoo penguins is countless times better."

"The method of identification is also very simple. The height of Gentoo penguins is usually 56 to 66 centimeters, the weight is generally [-] kilograms, the mouth is slender, the corners of the mouth are red, and there is a red triangle at the corner of the eye."

These little guys were lying lazily on the ice one by one. The corners of their cinnabar-red mouths looked pretty.

Wen Wanwan observed carefully for a while and saw many penguins hatching eggs, and quickly gave Shen Nan instructions.

Gentoo penguins generally breed in winter, and the incubation period lasts seven to eight months.

Now this time is also a critical time. Generally speaking, gentoo penguins lay one or two eggs at a time.

If both pups hatch, they compete to be fed by their parents.

At this time, the penguin parents will flee to the side, and the little penguins will chase their parents closely to feed them.

The bigger, older chick wins the competition and gets food from its parents, while the other little penguin has to wait until next time.

If there is not enough food, the second hatchling will usually starve to death.

It is about a month before hatching. As long as the eggs are placed in an incubator and cultivated artificially, the cubs will not have the problem of insufficient food after birth.

Although the eggs were not clearly visible under the penguin's body, Wen Wanwan also roughly calculated the number.

Based on the current temperature and the food content in this area, we can roughly calculate a multiple of the egg.

Multiply this by the number of penguins hatching eggs to get a less specific number.

Although it is not so precise, this approximate number is enough, and it will be convenient to arrange tasks for volunteers when it is handed over to Ba Xiangshan later.

After staying here for several hours, Wen Wanwan finally took a look at the time.

"Let's go and see how the base is doing. I guess the infrastructure has been set up."

All the way back to the area where the motorboat was parked, Wen Wanwan sat in the co-pilot and said hello to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"Today's live broadcast ends here for the time being. I will continue to take you to see different types of penguins tomorrow. Maybe if you are lucky, you can encounter some rarer species."

Amidst the barrage of "See you tomorrow" in the live broadcast room, Wen Wanwan quickly turned off the live broadcast, buckled his hat a little tighter, and huddled in the passenger seat waiting for the motorcycle to go to the temporary base.

After all, the journey was not that far, and there was no traffic jam in Antarctica like in the North Pole. The snowmobile quickly arrived at the temporary base.

Compared to the Arctic, the ports on the Antarctic side are closer, making it easier to transport some supplies.

Even though the number of volunteers is not as large as the large army in the Arctic, the construction speed of the base is not slow at all.

It can even be said that with various modern facilities and the uninterrupted work of the generator set, the prototype of a base can be vaguely seen in just one afternoon. "Wanwan, let me introduce you. This is Professor Fang, the data logger at the Antarctic Great Wall Station. This time he is here to help plan the temperature control of our temporary base."

Hearing this, a smile quickly appeared on Wen Wanwan's face and she greeted Professor Fang.

"Hello, I am Wen Wanwan, the commander-in-chief of the marine animal collection project!"

"Hello girl!"

The old man's face was full of smiles. From time to time he looked down at the device in his hand, and then turned to chat with Wen Wanwan.

Seeing the busy work at the base, Wen Wanwan wisely did not go over to cause trouble.

At this time, most people's work has been assigned and completed, as long as it is completed according to the plan and within the specified time.

If she intervened at will in the past, it was not helping but causing trouble.

Rather than making people dislike him, it would be better to chat more with Professor Fang here, and maybe get some information that is not available in the data center.

Although the work at the temporary base has come to an end today, it will still take some time anyway.

Wen Wanwan and Professor Fang chatted very happily. After all, one is a master of zoology, and the other has lived in Antarctica for such a long time and has many own opinions about the animals here.

Shen Nan moved a small stool from nowhere, and from time to time she could interject in the heated conversation between the two.

But Su Xiu on the side did not have this ability at all. The collision of ideas between intellectuals, without sufficient knowledge reserves, it is impossible to keep up with their ideas.

"The Falkland Islands wolf definitely did not become extinct in [-]. I was at the Great Wall Station in [-], and I saw it with my own eyes that year!"

Professor Fang's tone was very exciting. What Wen Wanwan said about extinction would not work for him at all!
"Impossible, you must have read it wrong. Captain John Strong first discovered the Falkland Islands wolf in 1990,"

"Charles Darwin landed on the island in [-] to investigate and eventually name it. The last Falkland wolf died in London Zoo in [-]."

Wen Wanwan's strong mental power allowed her to easily find relevant records in her memory, and there would be absolutely no problems in this regard.

When their eyes met, Professor Fang also began to tell Wen Wanwan the original story.

"I have been in Antarctica since [-], and supplies were limited at that time. We could probably replenish food and oil for two months once the fleet came."

"At that time, I remember that there were only seven people in the research station. Everyone had to go out to record data every day. The food was stored in the warehouse without anyone watching it."

"On the sixth month I came here, a little researcher brought back a small dog-like animal that night. At that time, he saw that it was injured and had not eaten for a long time, so he fed it some meat pies. "

"It took about half a month to recuperate at the Great Wall Station. After the guy recovered, he disappeared. We just thought it was looking for the tribe."

"later……"

……

Professor Fang paused for a moment when he said this, his eyes filled with emotion.

"Then two years later, an unusual snowstorm suddenly came, which unfortunately coincided with the few days when we needed supplies."
