10 min read2,594 words

Around five in the morning.

Tian Gang Meng Meng Liang

The sound of rooster crowing came from Gaogang Village.

Oh oh oh! ~

Xiang Qian and the others have already got up and started preparing for the

mountain.

The five changed into camouflage uniforms.

Check the various equipment to be investigated and plan the route at the same

time.

Xiang Qian held the tablet in his hand and looked at the satellite map that he

had already downloaded.

In the dream.

He had already marked the location of the wild South China tiger.

It is the steep, rocky mountain.

And at the moment.

Bling also walked out of the room and said hello:

"Brother Xiang, good morning! I will make breakfast for you."

"No trouble, we brought compressed biscuits."

He smiled at Qian, then stopped Bu Ling and asked:

"Do you know this place?"

See it on the tablet.

Bling looked at the marked rocky mountain carefully for a while, then shook

his head blankly:

"I don't know, this place goes deep into the reserve. I have never been to

it."

Heard this.

A little disappointed with Qian, but Bling added:

"However, my dad should know."

quickly…

Bushan checked the satellite map, then hesitated:

"It seems to be Shi Kuishan, you are going to the head of the garden?"

Shi Kuishan?

Looking at Qian, he immediately nodded and said:

"Yes, this place should be suitable for wild pangolins to survive. Of course,

we still need to go to the field to investigate."

Bu Shan coughed and recalled:

"Ahem... When I was a child, I heard the old people in the village say that

Shikui Mountain is dangerous. Legend has it that there are a group of

mandrills on the mountain."

Mandrill still eats people?

When Qian was taken aback, Awang asked curiously:

"What is Mandrill?"

"It's a baboon."

Ding Mengyang said, then introduced:

"Mandrill is the largest monkey primate in the world. It is commonly known as

ghost baboon. The face of adult male mandrill has brightly colored special

patterns and looks like a ghost, so it is called Mandrill."

"Senior, this kind of creature is very dangerous." Ding Mengyang reminded.

"I know."

Nodded to Qian.

There must be mandrills in the Shiwanda Mountain, but on that Shikui

Mountain...

Absolutely not!

joke.

With that wild South China tiger there, the mandrill was eaten up or scared

away!

Because the main natural enemy of Mandrill is the leopard.

But leopards generally hunt only female mandrills and juvenile mandrills.

As for the South China Tiger...

Adult male mandrills are still within the prey range of tigers.

After all, mandrill cannibalism is just a legend.

But tiger...

It really can eat people!

...

"Shikui Mountain has been there for decades. No one has been there. I'll

wait...cough cough, tell Bling that girl how to go after entering the

mountain."

Bu Shan coughed and nodded to Qian:

"Thank you Uncle Bu."

Know this information.

Xiang Qian couldn't help asking:

"Yangyang, adult male mandrill, is Caesar strong?"

"Caesar is a chimpanzee, not a monkey."

Ding Mengyang gave a white glance.

Orangutans are called orangutans because they are much larger than monkeys!

Orangutan...baboon...monkey...

From big to small.

This is the size order of primates.

Caesar's strength can single out several adult male mandrills.

have to say.

Xiang Qian really wants to go back and let Caesar be his bodyguard.

That sense of security must be overwhelming, definitely surpassing Ah Wang and

Zhao Wuyang.

Five times the upper limb strength of humans.

Not kidding.

Even if the South China Tiger hit Caesar, it was probably choking.

...

Buling steamed a pot of wowotou.

Everyone finished their breakfast.

After packing up the things and filling the kettle, Bu Ling said:

"Abba, I brought them into the mountain with my big brother!"

"Ah... pay attention to safety on the road, go early and return early."

Bu Shan exhorted, and said seriously to Qian:

"Uncle Bu, please rest assured, we will definitely protect Bu Ling."

that's it…

Xiang Qian and the others went to Houshan.

Before entering the mountain.

But I saw that Bu Ling, carrying a bamboo basket and sickle, was bending over

to tie a string of small bells around his ankle.

Seeing this, Xiang Qian's heart was indeed the same as the picture in his

dream, so he shook his head and smiled:

"There is no need to tie a bell, we have to investigate the animal ecology in

the mountains."

"Yes, sister Bling, this will scare away the animals in the mountains and

forests in advance, and it will easily affect the inspection activities."

Ding Mengyang also nodded in agreement.

"That's it."

Seeing this, Bu Ling gave up tying the bell.

Actually.

Xiangqian was more reluctant to see, and the sound of the bell alarmed the

group of poachers.

quickly…

The six people passed through the bamboo forest and began to enter the

mountainous area.

Ding Mengyang also turned on the DV digital video camera, and then said to the

camera:

"The expedition record, July 31, at 6:03 am."

"The Beihai Zoo investigation team set off for the Shiwandashan National

Nature Reserve."

"The main purpose of this expedition is: 1. To find the wild ‘return’ site of

pangolins, 2. To investigate the biodiversity in the reserve..."

The video has started!

Ding Mengyang introduced, then the camera pointed towards Qiandao:

"This is the person in charge of this scientific expedition, the director of

Beihai Zoo."

"My name is Xiang Qian."

Smiled to Qian, after all, he is indeed in charge.

And then...

Ding Mengyang started interviewing everyone like a little reporter.

Only Mian Hulu took the initiative to avoid the camera.

"Don't shoot the monitor."

Xiang Qian shook his head and said, the secret service bodyguard of the old

leader is indeed not suitable for video recording.

"Ok."

Ding Mengyang nodded helplessly.

But I saw that Ah Wang was carrying two large camouflage backpacks, just like

human-shaped animals.

"What's in the backpack?"

Ding Mengyang was puzzled, and Xiang Qian couldn't help but smile:

"Body armor and helmet."

Body armor?

Ding Mengyang was stunned in an instant, and Mian Hulu cast a glance at Qian.

"This is to prevent outsiders. After all, we went into the mountain to

investigate, and we were not lucky. We are likely to encounter poachers. We

must prepare protective equipment."

Explained to Qian with a smile.

Not possible...

It is bound to meet poachers.

...

at the same time.

Five poachers, including Lin Ba, carried their weapons.

Cut through thorns all the way.

Also began to enter the reserve.

Back to Xiangqian.

However, Zhao Wuyang took the engineer to shovel the way, and said at the same

time:

"When climbing the mountain, lower the body's center of gravity and control

the breathing rhythm, which can effectively save energy."

It was a special soldier.

Xiang Qian followed Zhao Wuyang's method, and it was a lot easier to climb the

mountain.

"Found a stone dragon."

Ding Mengyang stopped, and then used the camera to photograph the small lizard

on a rock.

Then everyone moved on.

during this process.

Bulling also asked curiously:

"Brother Xiang, do you plan to come to the reserve to release pangolins after

your investigation is over?"

"It's release, not release."

He shook his head and smiled to Qian.

Then it explained.

simply put.

Release: More embodied in scientific research, increasing the population of

endangered species through artificial breeding conditions.

Letting go: Ordinary people release living creatures into the wild in order to

do good deeds.

Pangolin seized by the forestry station.

It belongs to the former. After all, people are wild animals, so they are

naturally released into the wild.

Many problems will arise in the folk ‘release of life’.

Isn’t there a lot of news on the Internet?

A local tyrant bought dozens of foxes from a breeding factory and secretly

released them into the wild.

Does not consider the survival of the fox at all.

There are also so-called ‘release lovers’ who went to the countryside to

release snakes back to the mountains.

Without the knowledge of the local villagers.

Hundreds of released snakes got into the jungle near the houses.

A few hours later.

Groups of small snakes appeared on the country roads, and several nearby

villages began to become restless.

Those snakes that were released.

In addition to non-venomous snakes such as cauliflower snakes, there are also

venomous snakes such as tabby-necked snakes and red-spotted snakes.

For safety.

The villagers spontaneously organized to hunt down these little snakes that

ran on the road and got into the houses.

that's it…

A ‘release of life’ has become a ‘killing’.

so.

Unreasonable release is far more terrible than killing!

Fortunately in recent years.

my country’s newly revised Wildlife Protection Law has already regulated the

release of animals.

The Wildlife Protection Law stipulates:

Any organization or individual releases wild animals into the wild

environment.

Local species suitable for survival in the wild in the release area should be

selected, and the normal life and production of local residents should not be

disturbed, so as to avoid harm to the ecosystem.

Release wild animals at will, causing damage to the person or property of

others or harming the ecosystem.

Will bear legal responsibility according to law.

for example…

Release of exotic species bought on the market, such as Brazilian tortoises

and some fish.

This kind of release is absolutely forbidden, and penalties are set, and

penalties should be imposed on those who freely release alien species that

constitute a criminal offence.

"From the satellite map, the geographical environment of Shikui Mountain is

very suitable for pangolins to inhabit."

Tell Qian.

Pangolins have many natural enemies.

The first is human beings.

The place of release must be far away from where humans live.

In addition to human hunting, other larger carnivores will also prey on

pangolins.

Such as leopards, wolves, etc.

In the natural world, pangolins are weak in defense against enemies, and there

is almost no active counterattack against hunters who prey on it, and they

only passively defend.

For example, storing the head and limbs in the abdomen, shrinking the body

into a ball, and so on.

and so…

The rocky mountain.

It is undoubtedly the best habitat for pangolins, which is exactly in line

with the characteristics of pangolin drilling.

"Brother Xiang, you know a lot." Bling exclaimed.

"Of course! I'm the zoo chief."

Smiled to Qian, but Zhao Wuyang stopped suddenly:

"There is a snake on the ground."

snake?

Xiang Qian's face changed, and he backed away in fright.

"Where is the snake?"

On the other hand, Ding Mengyang was excited, and immediately ran forward to

take pictures and videos, and at the same time did not forget to despise

Qiandao:

"Sister Bling is not afraid of snakes, is she ashamed?"

"..."

Xiang Qian's face is red.

no way.

Mental shadows are not so easy to overcome, and it will take time.

...

Early morning in the woods.

The crystal dew hung on the branches, and the birds were chirping on the

trees.

Bu Ling stopped, looked at a few wild blueberries and smiled:

"Brother Xiang, there are blueberries here."

"Really? I'll try it."

Xiang Qian walked over immediately, picked a few blueberries with frost, and

threw them into his mouth.

A sweet and sour taste.

Bloom on the tip of the tongue!

Ding Mengyang and the others also admired a few words after tasting.

Then move on.

Ah Wang deliberately fell behind, reaching out and pulling out a blueberry

directly into his arms.

This foodie!

He twitched Qian's eyes, and then found many mountain products along the way.

Black Fungus…

Pleurotus eryngii...

Chicken fir mushroom...

Even at the foot of a big tree, two Ganoderma lucidum appeared impressively.

These wild ingredients, or medicinal materials.

Xiang Qian had already seen it in his dream, but he didn't think it was

strange.

But soon...

But I saw that a little squirrel jumped from the tree and quickly came to Bu

Ling's feet, and then quickly climbed onto the bamboo basket.

Haw! ~

The little squirrel called out and looked at Qian.

This should be the little squirrel named Guoguo.

really…

Bu Ling smiled and said:

"Guoguo, good morning."

"Wow! Sister Bling, does this squirrel know you?"

Ding Mengyang surprised, and immediately pointed the camera lens at Guoguo.

As in a dream.

The little squirrel Guoguo flicked its big fluffy tail.

Brush...brush...brush...

Started to fan Bling.

Xiang Qian looked envious, and as the six continued to go deep into the

mountains.

quickly…

Chicken stand! ~

Behind Bling came the cry of an animal.

The squirrel immediately raised its tail.

"Xiao Huang is here?"

Bu Ling smiled back and saw a slender weasel.

Chicken stand! ~

But I saw that the weasel was also familiar, and quickly climbed into the back

basket.

This is the fart weasel!

Xiang Qian was very impressed with this guy, and immediately walked into the

observation, and seemed very interested.

however…

Xiao Huang saw Qian Qian approaching, and immediately turned around and raised

his tail, aiming at him.

Look at me as a shit.

Break your face!

"Oh, shit?"

Staring at Qian's eyes, fortunately, Bulling spoke in time:

"Xiao Huang don't fart, he is a good man to Big Brother."

Good guy?

I thank you for your nice person card.

Xiang Qian couldn't laugh or cry, and he was relieved when he saw the weasel

jump into the bamboo basket.

One hour thereafter.

The six people climbed the mountains and ridges along the way, constantly

approaching Shikui Mountain.

Until Zhao Wuyang stopped, staring at the footprints on the ground, frowning

and judging:

"About a week ago, people came here."

Xiang Qian's eyes lit up, and he quickly said:

"Hurry up and look around, maybe there are any clues."

really…

Zhao Wuyang quickly found a broken lasso, as well as many strange hoof prints.

"This kind of hoof print, is it..."

Ding Mengyang was still guessing, and Bu Ling said in a panic:

"It's A Ling's footprints!"

At this moment, Xiang Qian nodded and said:

"It should be the Chinese hyena. It is estimated that after breaking free of

the noose, it is likely to be injured."

It depends on the situation.

Lin Ba and others have not yet come.

Ever since, he said to Qian:

"Brother Zhao, clean up the traces we left, and don't let anyone discover it."

"it is good!"

Zhao Wuyang immediately began to clean up the traces, and looked at the people

to Qian:

"Let's rest next to you for a while, and then move on later."

More than ten minutes later.

The boring gourd, who remained silent throughout the journey, suddenly said:

"Be careful, someone is coming."

He shrank his pupils towards Qian, and quickly commanded everyone to squat

down, all hiding in the grass.

After a while.

There was footsteps nearby.

Snapped! ! ! !

At the same time there was a loud applause, followed by angrily:

"Grass, so many mosquitoes!"

Hear Zhao Hui's voice.

Secretly raised his eyes to Qian to check, and he saw five poachers including

Lin Ba.

Really met a poacher?

Ding Mengyang was shocked, after all, those people had guns in their hands.

Obviously illegal personnel.

...

[PS: 4:40 in the morning, the first one! Laughing and crying, there were too

many mosquitoes at night, and I was bitten by a lot of mosquito bags.
