I Have a Safari Park

"Wow, this big tail is so beautiful!"

"The scales seem to be sparkling!"

"Fairy spirit fluttering!"

The white-bellied golden pheasant tilted its head and stared at the tourists with piercing eyes.

Looking closely, there is also a red tuft of red hair on the top of its head.

The tail feathers have white scales with black borders and dark lines, with a few vermilion embellishments.

White like clouds, black like ink, and the blue-blue feathers are subtle and restrained, giving the feeling of stepping out of a landscape painting.

A few white-bellied golden pheasants strolled with their heads lowered, pecking, and croaked twice, as if to remind their companions, their voices were hoarse, like the "squeak" sound of an old wooden door.

A little fluffy squirrel will stay on the stump, standing on the edge of the stump, bowing its head and stealing the broken corn sprinkled by the breeder, moving its mouth and eating with relish.

Seeing a white-bellied golden pheasant squatting and kicking, jumped up lightly, and hurriedly ran down from the stump again.

Liu Wei asked, "Xuemei, do you like Golden Pheasant with white belly or Golden Pheasant with red belly?"

Yu Gongxin smiled and said: "Of course I like it!"

After thinking for a while: "If you have to say which one you like more, it might be Golden Pheasant! This blue-blue-white feather color is like elegant blue-and-white porcelain, don't you think?"

Liu Wei glanced at the white-bellied golden pheasant again: "Listening to you, it does look a bit like it!"

"I didn't expect such a beautiful bird, it was an eye-opener today!"

From the Golden Pheasant Forest, we came to the Red Panda House!

"Oh, kawaii!"

Amamiya was so happy that she ran behind the sign with her hand raised to demonstrate against the red panda, her face showing from behind, with a bright smile on her face: "Senior, senior, take a picture for me!"

Liu Wei made a gesture: "ok!"

I didn't expect such a beautiful girl to have such a childish side. Isn't this thing for children to play?

Amamiya Xin didn't think so. I took a few photos and sent them back to my friends in Japan. They must not be envious.

Japanese people love pandas very much.

Entering the red panda house, there are not many tourists, only a dozen people.

With a headset, Guan Shan smiled with the tourists: "Hello everyone! Today I will show you the behavioral training we usually give to the red pandas.

When it comes to behavioral training, everyone may immediately think of circus performances, such as tigers jumping through fire rings, and elephants having independent hind legs.

However, the purpose of behavior training in zoos is not to let animals perform circus, but to let them cooperate when checking their bodies, move according to the guidance of the breeder, not be afraid of injections, etc., to ensure the health and welfare of animals.

Take the red panda as an example, during the breeding period, it is necessary to do a b-ultrasound to see if she is pregnant. After confirming that she is pregnant, you can prepare the delivery room and adjust the nutritional mix of the food. Only by training well in advance can the b-ultrasound go smoothly. "

Guan Shan took out a clicker: "What I need for behavior training is this clicker and my hand! Like this."

"Click" clicked.

"This is a signal to the red panda that it did the right thing! If it is done right, the red panda will be rewarded with some food, and in this way, the red panda will be guided to make the correct actions.

Today my partner is chestnut, I will bring it out. "

When Guan Shan went to the back house, Liu Wei said to Amiya, "We're here today by coincidence! I've only seen parrots before, and I've never seen a red panda's behavior training demonstration."

"Wow, then we are so lucky."

After a while, Guan Shan and another assistant breeder came out with chestnuts and came to the open space in front of the red panda house.

Chestnut is behind Guan Shan's legs, looking around!

Amamiya Xin looked at Chestnut's beautiful face, butterfly-like ears, brown-red fur, long fluffy tail, and sparkling eyes, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Kawaii! Kawaii!"

Squatting on the ground, the camera "clicks" non-stop!

The assistant breeder maintained order and said, "Everyone, please spread out a little, don't get too close, and bring psychological pressure to the chestnuts!"

Everyone obediently opened a distance of two or three meters.

Red pandas are relatively timid and vigilant animals. Although they are used to seeing tourists, they can go out for a walk, but it is still a bit difficult to do behavioral training under the watchful eyes of tourists.

Therefore, only when the weather is not hot, there are fewer tourists, and the red pandas are in a good mood, will the training show be carried out.

Guan Shan took out a small piece of apple from her pocket: "The reward for training is a sweet and delicious apple!"

Amamiya Xin raised her hand and asked curiously, "Excuse me, why are there so few?"

Guan Shan said: "If you give too much at one time, the red panda will lose interest in the food temptation, so the training efficiency is higher if you give it a small amount of time.

Of course, in addition to food, the most important thing in the training process is the trust and cooperation of the animals!

It is necessary to train in a state as relaxed as possible. If the animals are unwilling, we will not force them to avoid boredom in the next training. "

Guan Shan squatted down, smiled at Lizi and shouted, "Lizi! Start training."

Chestnut was sniffing a small flower on the edge of the lawn, and when she heard Guan Shan's greeting, she obediently walked to her legs!

Guan Shan stretched out her hand and raised it: "Come on, stand tall!"

Lizi lifted her front paws off the ground, stood up with her hind feet, and touched Guan Shan's palm with the tip of her nose.

Guan Shan immediately pressed the clicker, and with a "click", handed Lizi an apple and praised: "Well done!"

The tourists exclaimed: "Wow, so good!"

"What a cute little neng!"

Afraid of disturbing the training, they are relatively quiet!

Yu Gongxin lightly poked Liu Wei's arm and asked, "What is Xiaoneng?"

Liu Wei explained: "'Neng' is the ability of 'ability'. The four points below the bear represent the legs. The red panda may have short legs, so it's called Xiaoneng, which is our affectionate name for it!"

"Xiao Neng, Kawaii!"

Waiting for Chestnut to eat the apple and licking her lips incessantly, Guan Shan stretched out her palm again: "Shake hands!"

Chestnut put her left paw in her palm, Guan Shan changed her hand and put it on the other side: "Shake hands!"

Chestnut also put his right paw on his palm!

With a "click", Guan Shan handed out the apple and praised, "Great!"

The assistant breeder explained to the tourists: "Shaking hands and high-fives are common behavioral training for red pandas, which can help them keep calm when their front paws are touched, so that the veterinarian can check their bodies."

Guan Shan stretched out her hand: "Come, high five!"

Chestnut stretched out his paw and touched Guan Shan lightly.

The red panda's small claws and the human's big high fives look very loving.

"Envy, I also want to give a high five with the red panda!"

"Kawaii!"
