I Have a Safari Park
Chapter 367
A tourist looked excited and kept shooting: "it''s really worth seeing this scene today!"
Some tourists are curious: "can''t tigers swim? Why don''t you go down and get the ice cream yourself? "
The companion on one side guessed: "maybe the water is a little deep, it can''t grasp it!"
Ice cream got a twig, took it in his mouth and ran happily. He rolled and lay down on the grass. His two claws pulled the twig and had a good time!
The little boys can understand the ice cream. They find that the branches also like to pick up and play. They hold them in their hands and pretend to be a sword. Great Xia cos or the brave fight with their little friends.
Simple twigs, pure happiness.
Meng Shi explained to the children: "this big tiger is Jiao Jiao, an old employee of our zoo."
Tell the children about tigers!
"Jiao Jiao has a good relationship with ice cream. Although ice cream is not her own child, Jiao Jiao completely treats it as her own child.
The last time I gave the ice cream an injection, the ice cream was very scared for the first injection. Jiao Jiao immediately got angry and yelled, which startled our veterinarians. It was the principal who calmed Jiao Jiao down. "
Wang Haoran said curiously, "does the tiger also need an injection?"
Meng Shi said with a smile, "of course, I have to get an injection. I have to get a vaccine every year. But the tiger''s needle is different from ours.
Jiao Jiao is a very spiritual tiger. She can understand the gardener''s words, but she doesn''t listen to us breeders very much. Recently, I''ve been training Jiao Jiao. If I want to command her to move, Jiao Jiao is very resistant and unwilling to cooperate with us. "
"Training?"
"Do you want the tiger to jump into the fire ring?"
"I don''t want to see the tiger jump into the fire circle. I like watching the tiger play with water and branches."
The children also talked. Some were confused and others frowned.
Now there are few circus. Originally, children may have simply learned about circus on TV or in books. They think it is a word representing joy.
But after visiting the zoo and being edified, I instinctively have an aversion to circus.
Meng Shi explained: "the behavior training in the zoo is different from that in the circus.
The first is the purpose of training. The circus trains animals, such as letting tigers jump into the fire circle. The meaning behind this performance is that human beings are above animals. Animals are human playthings. They are funny and even stupid.
This disrespect for animals will expand into disrespect for the environment and the same kind. It is a very barbaric and primitive entertainment.
The zoo trains animals to improve animal welfare.
For example, animals need injections to be healthy. Sometimes they need to take blood for physical examination. We can''t explain to animals and let them understand the benefits of injection. Fierce animals such as lions and tigers can only be anesthetized to get an injection. It''s not only troublesome, but also not very good for health. After training, animals won''t be afraid of injection and will take the initiative to cooperate.
Another difference is the means of training. The circus''s training is that hungry animals do not give food and whip animals. Taming animals through this means of negative punishment is very harmful to the physical and mental health of animals.
We train animals through positive incentives, reward them for eating delicious food and let them cooperate voluntarily... "
Now the training is not very mature. In the future, visitors can visit how the breeder trains animals. Some exhibition areas have special supporting behavior training display surfaces.
"So it is!"
The children listened very carefully and deepened their understanding of what is respect for animals and love for animals.
……
When it was more than 4 o''clock and faster than 5 o''clock, the children took a simple tour of the zoo.
In the afternoon, I mainly visited the predator corridor. There was no time to play in the two climbing halls. I just enjoyed the underwater swimming posture of the Bay crocodile and watched the black boot tortoise crawl slowly.
Finally, I came to the small pasture and visited the alpaca.
"Doodle! Gather! Gather! Line up, we''ve counted the number! "
On the square at the gate of the zoo, the children lined up according to their classes, chattering and communicating. Their faces were full of happy expressions, and some people were reluctant to give up.
"I had a great time today!"
"I haven''t played enough. The crocodile is really big. It looks like a tank car. It looks so powerful."
"I''ll let my mother take me to play again at the weekend."
Yang Sibo opened his mind: "if only there were such activities every day, I want to live in the zoo!"
Wang Haoran said, "you''re dreaming!"
"I know it''s impossible. Can''t you think about it? Maybe you can dream of the zoo today."
A teacher in each class counted the number of people. The remaining teachers shook hands with Fang ye and exclaimed with admiration: "ah, the head of the zoo is great!"
"Yes, the environment is beautiful, animals are happy, and popular science education is well done."
"These children are really lucky to meet such a good zoo. When I was a child, I also liked to go to the zoo, but it was far worse than your zoo in all aspects. The cage was always dirty and there were animal performances. "
"When I get back, I''ll suggest the headmaster to organize the children to come every year."
Fang ye said with a smile, "you''re welcome! Our zoo will do better and better. "
……
When the bus took the children back to school, it was just after school.
The parents were waiting to pick up the children at the door. Wang Haoran quickly found his mother in the crowd.
He said goodbye to Yang Sibo and ran over: "Mom! Mom! "
Mrs. Wang touched Wang Haoran''s head and said with a smile, "Yo, you''re very happy? Tell mom what you played today? "
In fact, in the past today, the teacher also took some photos and videos and spread them to the parents.
Wang Haoran held hands with his mother and spoke excitedly: "the bird hall we visited at the beginning was beautiful. There was a macaw named Jinzhi who could recite ancient poems, that is, Li Bai''s thinking at a quiet night, which was very emotional."
"So powerful!" Mother Wang said in surprise.
Turn out his mobile phone and show him the photos of his parents: "what your teacher took is the bird hall. It''s really beautiful!"
"Jin Zhi is this one!"
Wang Haoran excitedly took a photo and said, "the breeder told us what Fengrong is. Mom, do you know Fengrong? Take a hole in a pumpkin and put melon seeds in it. It''s not only a fun toy for parrots, but also a fun toy... After dinner, we feed Koi, which are very beautiful... The little white tiger and the big tiger are spoiled, especially cute... "
There are too many things to say. Not only he, but also the children are sharing today''s knowledge and harvest with their parents.
"Mom, shall we go to the zoo this weekend?"
"All right!"
