Start at the pet store

Chapter 952 Eye-Opening

Looking at Xiao Sun's dark face, as if he was about to get angry, Xiao Xin gently pulled his clothes: "Don't worry, don't worry, maybe these are originally going to be discarded, the organizers let them develop like this, let them play the last bit of value, it's useless for you to get angry, it won't change anything."

Because Xiao Xin was there, Xiao Sun resisted the urge to snatch those dying little sand lizards from the children's hands, mainly because there were too many, and he couldn't snatch them all.

He adjusted his mood and tried to suppress his anger.

He turned his head and continued to walk in.

Although he was unhappy, it was the first time he had a formal date with Xiao Xin, and he didn't want to embarrass Xiao Xin.

He tried to smile at her: "Look over there..."

Xiao Xin nodded and let him lead him away.

The first area over there was the snake display area.

Xiao Sun walked over there excitedly. The little white snake he was responsible for had not yet hatched, so he especially wanted to see if there were the same species here.

The snake display area has fewer people than the entrance, but it is still quite lively. There are also many children, talking and laughing, and you can hear low calls from time to time.

Xiao Sun tightened Xiao Xin's hand. After passing the sand lizard area just now, he always felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.

"Green snake..." Xiao Xin whispered.

"Green snake? This picture is a bamboo leaf green snake, what's going on?" Xiao Sun looked at the picture that Xiao Xin was looking at.

"Ah? No way, can this be wrong?"

"I'll tell you the best way to distinguish them. There are several differences between them. First of all, the head is different. The head of the green snake is oval, slightly pointed, and the scales on the head are large. The bamboo leaf green snake has a large head, a triangular shape, a thin neck, and small scales on the top of the head. The tail does not look obvious in this picture, but it is particularly obvious in the living creature. The bamboo leaf green snake is a rattlesnake. The easiest thing to see in the photo is that the bamboo leaf green has red eyes and is very small. You can see it, while the green snake has large eyes and is black..." Xiao Sun knows the difference between the two snakes like a needle.

"Now that you put it that way, the picture is indeed wrong. The picture should be a bamboo green snake." Xiao Xin nodded, and then looked at the glass tank next to him.

"Alas..." Xiao Sun sighed: "But, there are indeed green snakes in the tank..."

Xiao Xin half bent over to take a closer look at the two snakes in the glass tank.

Xiao Sun frowned tightly, and whispered in Xiao Xin's ear: "Why don't we stop looking at it, I think it makes me angry."

Xiao Xin turned around and looked at him: "What's wrong?"

"Look at this environment..." There were two green snakes in it. Green snakes like humid environments, but the situation in the tank is that they are raised in the desert, with dry red jade soil and some fine sand and gravel.

There was a green snake with half-faded skin hanging on its head, staring with its eyes motionless. Based on Xiao Sun's experience, it is probably dead.

Because there were still fleas flying around inside. If Xiao Sun guessed correctly, there must be no fleas when the green snake first entered. Fleas started to appear after the snake died.

The other one was not much better. It should not be the time for the snake to shed its skin, but it had already shed half of it. It was stuck in the skin and looked half dead.

Xiao Sun looked at it with great distress, but he didn't see any staff at all after looking around.

Xiao Xin also knew what the reptile store in their store was like. By comparison, it was indeed a paradise and a hell.

She looked at Xiao Sun helplessly: "What should I do?"

Xiao Sun secretly exhaled: "Let's see..."

He still had a fantasy that maybe these two were just special, and his luck was just so good that he bumped into them.

The two stopped looking at this tank and moved their feet to follow the crowd forward.

However, the other snake tank next to it was not much better. It was also raised with that kind of red jade soil. Snake raisers know that red jade soil will change color when it is wet, but the soil in the tank was dry, and it was obviously not humid enough.

The green and thin snake in this tank is also shedding its skin, giving people a feeling of being uncomfortable with shedding its skin.

But at least it is still alive.

After going around like this, the situation of each snake tank is similar, and Xiao Sun has to accept reality.

The two continued to walk to the lizard hall next to it.

There were no lights or heating equipment in the entire venue, which opened Xiao Sun's eyes.

The temperature in the hall made Xiao Sun feel a little cool, but this temperature is very unfriendly to the bearded dragon.

This has a great impact on the little guy's eyes. It just lay there motionless. No matter how others tease it, it has no reaction. Only the slight bulging of its belly makes people know that it is alive.

In another tank next to this tank, there is a spotted sail lizard, and its situation is not much better.

It was seen lying on a dead tree root, with its eyes closed, its mouth broken, its eye sockets sunken, its back abdomen sunken, and its long tail folded inward.

The spotted sail lizard is originally a semi-aquatic animal, but the water tank inside is useless, as there is no water in it.

The pad underneath is also dry red jade soil, and the little guy is just lying there half-dead.

The other tank next to it has Chinese skink written on the outside. Xiao Sun took a closer look and saw a blue-tailed skink in the corner. Xiao Sun remembered that the blue-tailed skink is also a protected animal, but it was kept here so carelessly.

It seems that no one in the entire museum cares about the life and death of these little creatures, only treating them as display objects.

Moreover, such errors of mislabeling data and names are countless and can be seen everywhere.

Many of the items in the entire museum are real objects and have nothing to do with the introduction.

But most of the people who came to the museum were parents with their children. This was a science exhibition. Xiao Sun couldn't help but think angrily, he couldn't understand this, so he shouldn't use the slogan of a science exhibition to promote it. Doesn't being pure mean it is misleading? Will these children question it when they see the correct species in the future?

The innermost part is a tank for a bearded dragon lizard. The bearded dragon lizard is the most basic type of reptile lizard. The brand is wrong, and there are no lights inside. Their eyes have become seriously ill.

On the other side of the tank, a very small bearded dragon lizard was so flat that it was deformed. It was unknown how long it had been hungry. It looked so skinny and emaciated that anyone who knows how to pet reptiles would cry.

"Why is this little guy so thin? He's all skin and bones." Xiao Xin also saw that this was too abnormal and couldn't help but sigh.

Xiao Sun shook his head, he no longer knew what to say.

I came with great joy, but now I am extremely disappointed.

Walking to the exit of the Lizard Hall, I finally saw the staff. There were five or six staff standing in front of a row of glass counters. Inside the cabinets were small transparent plastic bowls, and there was a sign with a red sign on it. The pen said two hundred yuan for a sand lizard.

"Oh my god, the sand lizard is a protected animal. How can it be sold like this?" Xiao Sun couldn't help but whisper.

"Ah?" Xiao Xin also opened her eyes wide: "What they write about are sand lizards. Can't they be sold?" She really didn't understand.

Xiao Sun shook his head: "This can be found. It is a protected animal and cannot be bought or sold."

He walked forward directly, and a staff member immediately came up to greet him with a smile: "Handsome guy, would you like to buy one? Today's price is only two hundred one."

Xiao Sun bent over and took a closer look. There were indeed some sand lizards and some other species, but the organizer seemed to be selling them all as sand lizards.

"Do you know that sand lizards are three animals?" Xiao Sun stood up and looked at the staff who introduced him.

The staff member shook his head: "We don't understand, we just sell."

Then another staff member who looked like a supervisor came over immediately: "Hello, do you want to buy it? If not, please don't disturb our normal work, thank you..."

Xiao Sun was amused by what he said: "You are breaking the law, and you are saying that I disturb your normal work..."

"We all follow the orders from above, sir, please don't make things difficult for us..." the supervisor said in a low voice.

Xiao Sun took a look and saw that there were people wearing ordinary work clothes next to him. Looking at the driving style, if he wanted to make things worse, he would probably be driven out before he finished speaking.

Although Xiao Xin said she was not afraid of trouble, she also knew that it was not something they could handle by force, so she pulled Xiao Sun again.

Xiao Sun, who was about to make a loud noise, immediately reacted to Xiao Xin's pull and looked at Xiao Xin.

"Don't fight them, or we'll go around again and talk to Brother Lu to see if he can do anything." Xiao Xin leaned into his ear and whispered.

Xiao Sun nodded, looked back at the supervisor, followed Xiao Xin around the Lizard Hall without saying a word, and then the two of them walked out in silence.

The staff felt relieved when they saw that the two were not planning to cause trouble, but everyone was a little panicked. The staff member who received Xiao Sun asked the supervisor: "Supervisor, is this okay?"

"What can happen? If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up. What are you afraid of..." the supervisor growled.

"Oh, I think he seems to know this..." the staff member whispered.

"Just do your job well, and don't do anything that's not yours to do." After the supervisor said that, he walked out.

He watched from a distance as Xiao Sun entered the butterfly house next to him.

A ticket is required to enter the Butterfly House.

Xiao Sun thought that since he had to swipe a ticket to enter, there must be a dedicated staff member, and the situation should be better.

Xiao Xin seemed to see through his mind and gently pulled him: "Look at the situation, I just don't think telling them will have much effect..."

"Yeah, I know..." Xiao Sun nodded.

However, after entering, Xiao Sun was once again surprised.

I saw many children in Butterfly Valley casually grabbing the wings of butterflies, and there was no one to care about them, and there was no staff member who wanted to report the situation to Xiao Sun.

When children catch this, what should I say? If the parents don’t stop it and the staff doesn’t guide it, then the children really won’t realize it.

So you can only see those that are smaller and more flexible and fly high, and the children can't catch them. Those that are slightly larger, many of them are injured, and they are caught and released by the children, which is a bit miserable. .

Knowing that his words would not make much difference, Xiao Sun silently pulled Xiao Xin out.

Further ahead is the spider area.

The first introduction picture made Xiao Sun laugh.

"Tell me, how do they assess the risk level?" Xiao Sun whispered to Xiao Xin.

"Ah? Do you also know about spiders?" Xiao Xin was a little surprised that Xiao Sun knew so much about reptiles.

Xiao Sun finally smiled: "I've been exposed to it before, so I like to read books about it, and I know a little bit about it. Look at this, the Brazilian giant Jin Zhijian, they gave it a five-star danger level, and then this Jin Zhijian got another one-star, isn't it the same?"

"Yes, the danger level is five stars, is it the limit of danger?" Xiao Xin also felt something was wrong.

"But Jin Zhijian is one of the classic and iconic pet tarantula species. They are docile, hardy, and almost never kick hair, plus a charming appearance. They are always one of the most popular species in the pet tarantula market and the first choice for novices. How can it be five stars in danger?" Xiao Sun smiled and shook his head.

"Huh... No matter how beautiful this little thing is, I don't like it..." Xiao Xin said disdainfully.

"Haha, I was also most afraid of spiders when I was a child, so I never suggested that Brother Lu buy this species of spiders. Look, you see, this is wrong again, this is the amber pill bug, but it was marked as the panda king." Xiao Sun seemed to be looking for mistakes, and there were almost no things that made him feel right.

"Look again, have you seen this kind of spider?" He pointed to another picture and a spider that stood up in the tank and asked Xiao Xin.

"Isn't this the spider we usually see? Is it poisonous? They don't seem to bite people, right?" Xiao Xin looked at the three stars on the introduction and asked uncertainly.

"Yes, this is an ordinary spider, non-toxic and harmless. Its scientific name is the white-fronted stilt spider. They only eat flies and mosquitoes. They are not even as big as a fingernail. They are actually three stars in danger. I am really..." Xiao Sun laughed so hard that he wanted to swear.

"And this African giant snail, it is actually zero stars in danger. Does it mean that it can be touched by children at will? Isn't this little guy dangerous? How many parasites does it have? My God..." Xiao Sun slapped his forehead.

The two walked inside while complaining.

Walking inside, they arrived at the scorpion area again.

There was a sign of insect science exhibition hanging next to it.

There was an introduction next to the first stand, which said Peter's Scorpion and Lin Shen's Scorpion.

The two walked around to the back of the introduction and saw a five or six-year-old child. The parent put a Peter's scorpion directly into the child's hand and took a photo of the child with his mobile phone.

Xiao Sun couldn't stand it anymore and stood in front of the parent and whispered, "You'd better not let the child handle it like this. No matter how low the toxicity is, they still have stings. Aren't you afraid that the child will have allergies or something?"
