Pet King

Although Zhang Zi'an described it lightly, everyone knows that even with the help of a dog, it is difficult to catch several auricle foxes by one person. In addition to bold and careful planning, you must have enough luck.

Wei Kang didn't care about the process of Zhang Zi'an's capture. His attention was attracted by the auricle fox, and he urged the four disciples behind him: "What are you still doing? Rarely come to the field for a field inspection and hurry up to take things live!"

The three boys answered each other and dispersed, ran back to the car to get the instruments.

He He has never done such errands, squatting beside the cage, tapping on the wire gently, teasing these cute little foxes. She was fascinated by the small and lovely auricle fox, and even forgot her identity as a biological researcher, and really wanted to take them home as pets.

"Be careful with your fingers!" Zhang Zi'an reminded.

He He shuddered, retracted his hand a little, and immediately followed by a ferocious fox opening his mouth fiercely and quickly. It was the collar of these auricular foxes and the strongest of them.

Fortunately, she retracted her hand in advance, it only bit on the wire, and screamed intimidatingly at her, warning her not to think indiscriminately.

"It's fierce!" She was a little scared, but her love for auricle foxes didn't diminish. After all, even cats and dogs sometimes bite their owners, not to mention these little foxes living in the wild.

"Teacher, are we going to bring these little foxes back?" She asked Wei Kang with joy, if she could bring them all back to China, she would be soft and hard, maybe she could bring one to bring home to raise, Certainly can attract the envy of girlfriends.

Wei Kang shook his head, "What do you want? We are scientific researchers who come to inspect animals in the wild, not to hunt animals. These animals live in the wild and belong only to the wild. We will release them after we finish our research. natural."

He He pouted in disappointment, but she knew that Wei Kang was academically stubborn and would not change once he decided.

Zhang Zi'an had similar questions before. Once Wei Kang found the original Egyptian cat, would he catch them and bring them back to China?

It will definitely cause a big sensation when brought back to China, but is it really a good thing for primitive Egyptian cats?

Wild animals live in the wild, and although they are kept in captivity, they will give them a more comfortable living environment and often have a longer life, but in the end, it is not good for the population, especially the already scarce population. One or two is possible Disaster to the population.

The real scientific researcher will not ignore the significance of the biosphere because of his small profit.

What's more, the desert environment is so special that it is difficult for humans to simulate similar environments.

Bringing wild animals back to the artificial environment must not be considered a violation of scientific ethics under very special circumstances, such as determining that only one animal remains in the wild, and judging that the population can no longer reproduce naturally. In such an extremely critical situation, Yes.

Zhang Zi'an's tent door moved, and Fina came out yawning and heard Wei Kang's words, staring thoughtfully at his back.

At this time, the three boys also ran back, holding a bunch of instruments.

Weikang solemnly said to Lippet: "Mr Lippet, we may have to postpone some departures. This is our job. We will catch up with you as soon as possible after completion."

Lippet waved his hand gently. "I said, the whole team is a collective, advancing and retreating together. I support your research. This is what we said in advance. We will start together after you finish, even if It doesn't matter if you stay here this morning. "

"Okay, thank you."

Wei Kang nodded deeply and greeted his disciples to start working.

Others learned that they were going to postpone their departure this morning, so they were not in a hurry. Some people returned to their tents and slept back to bed. Some leisurely listened to music for breakfast, while others were curious to stay and watch.

Weikang first used cameras and camcorders to take pictures of auricular foxes, record their findings, and then anesthetized them with ketamine. After the anesthetics take effect, they will fall into a deep sleep, remove them from the cage, lay them flat on the ground, and measure and record a series of vital signs such as body length, weight, temperature, and heartbeat.

Apart from applying narcotics, other tasks are not complicated. After watching the demonstration, Zhang Zi'an and other people present also helped.

From time to time, Wei Kang guides everyone to work and prompts some things that should be paid attention to, such as letting everyone wear disposable gloves, because the fur of this wild animal may hide parasites such as fleas, and it may also carry germs, especially Remind Zhang Zi'an not to let Fina and Feimas contact these auricular foxes.

Zhang Zi'an reassured that, fortunately, yesterday, Fina and Feimas did not catch the auricle fox in person, otherwise it would be troublesome if they were infected with any germs, and maybe they would infect the animals in the pet shop after returning.

After these things are done, the next step is to wear GPS wireless collars for these auricular foxes.

The GPS collar is very light and can be adjusted tightly, only about 100 grams. It will not affect animal activities too much, but it is very complete. It has a built-in GPS, wireless transmitter, temperature sensor, activity indicator, and battery. It records GPS every hour. The information can be used continuously for one year, and it will automatically fall off after no power. It can continue to transmit wireless signals for 1 month after being disconnected, so that researchers can find these collars through wireless receivers ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Bring back to analyze them Recorded data.

These field research work often calculates time over the years. The data is not easy to obtain, the working environment is difficult, but no flowers and applause are obtained. Ordinary people often cannot understand the boring data that they have spent on scientific research. What use.

"Are we going to come again in a year?" Zhang Zi'an asked while wearing a collar on the auricle fox.

Wei Kang laughed: "If you have the chance, you can, but I don't think the budget will be approved. It doesn't matter. Even if we don't come, Cairo University colleagues will pick up these collars for us."

"Oh, I see." Zhang Zi'an nodded, and it seemed that Wei Kang had arranged with Cairo University in advance.

After putting a collar on each auricle fox, Wei Kang adjusted the settings of the collar to check whether the data and signal reception were normal. From his expression, the collar worked normally and everything was fine.

After eating breakfast, Wei Kang looked at the time, and the effect of the narcotic drug may be over. He greeted Zhang Zi'an and his disciples, and returned to Zhang Zi'an to catch their cage in the cage, ready to put them Back to nature.
