I Have a Safari Park

  Chapter 329 Toucan

  At this time, Liu Xueqing saw a breeder in blue clothes next to him. He came over with a basket and threw some vegetables and fruits on the ground. Several gray birds ran to peck.

  The breeder should know it.

   then asked: "Hello, what kind of bird is this bird? Why don't they fly?"

  The breeder enthusiastically replied: "This is a gray-winged horn bird, distributed on the edge of the tropical rain forest in South America!

   Their flying ability is far lower than other birds, but their running ability is very strong! Two thin legs run very fast, faster than normal dogs. In fact, if you fly, you can fly. If you flap your wings hard, you can fly up to ten meters high. If you encounter a hunter who can't get rid of it, you will fly to a tree.

  When night falls, it is the time for them to use their wings regularly. A large group of hornbirds will flap their wings and fly to the trees to rest and end their daily life on the ground during the day. "

"Oh oh!"

The breeder added: "Wild hornbirds play a very important role in the local ecosystem! Their special gizzard can ensure that the fruit is digested and the seeds are unharmed. The characteristic of walking on the ground can also make the seeds. Go to other places and let the seeds fall on the ground through excretion to take root and germinate, so they are also sowers."

   Yingying's father said: "This bird is black and gray a bit inconspicuous, unexpectedly powerful."

  Liu Xueqing took the opportunity to educate her daughter: “Humans and animals are the same. You can’t just judge whether you look good or not, but you can’t judge people by their appearance.”

  Yingying's face was confused, but it seemed that he didn't quite understand it!

  However, starting from an early age, cultivating various principles of life is like planting a seed, and when the time is right, it will bear fruit.

   Going forward, I saw a very special bird again!

  The whole body is mainly black feathers, the face and throat are white, with a huge orange beak.

  The environment is also very special. They are closed separately. The front is a glass curtain wall, with traces of white and dirty, like uncleaned glass, and steel mesh on both sides and above.

   Yingying asked: "Ma Ma, why is this glass dirty?"

  Liu Xueqing looked at this environment, but also a little confused, guessing: "Is it because the breeder wiped the glass halfway, what happened?"

I feel a little dissatisfied. This breeder is too irresponsible. I was very happy to see such a beautiful bird house, but it turned out that I didn’t work seriously. It’s not an impression that I made this kind of omission. Discounts.

  It's not just her. Tourists are very confused when they see this environment. Why the glass is dirty and why other birds can fly freely outside. Should this bird be locked up?

  Looking around, I wanted to find a breeder to answer my doubts, but I couldn’t find it.

  Dad Yingying pointed to a sign hanging next to him: "Hey, look at the explanation here!"

  Toucans live here. In addition to fruits, seeds and insects, their usual food will also prey on some small birds and chicks!

  So separate them from other birds.

  As for the glass curtain wall, it is to improve the viewing degree, otherwise it is unsightly to take pictures through a steel mesh. The side and top cage nets can ventilate them, and the toucans can also be heard.

As for why the glass is dirty, I'm afraid that the bird can't see the glass and hit the glass curtain wall with one end, so I put soapy water on it. Before toucans and other birds get familiar with the environment, they will always be covered with soapy water. After they adapt to the environment, they know that there is a piece of glass here, so they can wipe off the soapy water! This way, even if it is transparent, it will not hit it.

  "It will cause temporary inconvenience to everyone, please forgive me!" The brand finally sold a cute.

   Liu Xueqing suddenly realized: "It turns out to be like this!"

  Think about my random speculation just now. I felt that the breeder’s omission had not been cleaned up. I was a little embarrassed. I took out my phone and took a picture of the sign explained.

   explained to Yingying, and sighed with Yingying's dad: "Don't tell me, this is really very human!"

  Dad Yingying nodded, his eyes showed appreciation and said: "Indeed! The work of the zoo is really well done."

  Considering the needs of tourists for taking pictures and watching, but also taking into account the safety of the birds, applying soapy water to prevent them from hitting the glass, and also hanging a sign to explain.

  This is what Fang Ye said. In places where visitors might have misunderstood that the zoo has not done a good job, put the explanation sign in advance. Don't wait for visitors to ask or expose it, and then explain it when it attracts public opinion.

  This is the case in some zoos. The tigers raised are a few hefty thinners, which makes tourists feel whether they are depriving them of food and failing to feed them properly. They are exposed with outrage.

  In fact, it’s not. The South China tiger that I raised is just because there are not a few South China tigers. They can only be inbred, and they have genetic defects and are much thinner than normal tigers.

And now that social media is developed, it’s not so obvious that the zoo’s food cuts are not so obvious. Maybe the tiger is fed the chicken rack, which is much cheaper than the beef, but the tiger will be malnourished after eating the chicken rack. The mood is bad, and most people still can't see it.

Originally, the zoo fed the tigers pork. After the original owner took over, they replaced it with beef. Some tourists asked what the tiger eats. He said beef. The tourists looked at him in disbelief and said why they didn’t feed the chicken. There was a lot of chicken. Cheap.

  The chicken feed is of course cheaper, but when he enters the Jiaojiao cage for the first time, Fang Ye is likely to be given an extra meal.

In another zoo~www.readwn.com~ wolves and dogs are mixed together. Tourists exposed that the zoo used dogs as wolves to fool people. Then the zoo explained that it was actually because the wolf had a low status in the group. The wolves crowded out bullies and were depressed. They all showed stereotyped behaviors.

   So he sent him a **** to accompany him, and the wolf gradually regained his confidence and was happier than usual.

  In fact, this is a good thing to consider animals and improve animal welfare, but it is not good to be misunderstood by tourists.

  So put up a sign in advance to explain that this kind of small details can not only avoid misunderstandings and improve the goodwill of tourists, but also can be transformed into an opportunity for popular science education.

  Although the glass looks dirty with soapy water, Liu Xueqing doesn’t feel awkward in her heart when she knows that it’s done so that birds can see the glass.

  Hugging Yingying, admiring the toucan inside with relish: "Hey, look, is this bird very funny?"

  The toucan's face value is still very high!

In the bird house is Toge's toucan, the largest of the toucans, with a body length of more than 60 cm and a beak of 20 cm. The huge beak is yellow with a little orange red, and the tip of the beak is black and black. The round eyes look very cute.
