Chapter 738 The Black-browed Brocade Snake Basking in the Sun

The hippo's mouth opened as wide as possible, and it was about the same height as the upper body of the breeder squatting by the pool.

It feels like you can swallow the breeder in one bite!

The breeder's arm was poking around in the hippo's mouth, causing tourists to sweat.

"Mom, this mouth is so big!"

"If the hippo's mouth is closed, the arm will not be directly bitten off."

Another breeder explained outside: "Don't worry, we usually take care of hippos and conduct behavioral training, and hippos are familiar with this operation. It feels very comfortable to clean their teeth and remove food residues, so they will not attack the breeding. member."

Someone asked curiously: "Why do you want to brush the teeth of hippos, will they get cavities if they don't brush their teeth? Who brushes their teeth in the wild?"

"I remember that in the wild in Africa, there seems to be a small Egyptian plover, nicknamed the toothpick bird, that picks the teeth of hippos! The zoo does not have Egyptian plover, so it can only rely on the breeder."

"Hey, aren't you picking teeth for a crocodile?"

Tang Xiaoxin said: "Anyway, I know that picking a crocodile's teeth is fake, and a crocodile doesn't need to pick its teeth at all."

The breeder said: "In the wild, Egyptian plover does not pick its teeth. The main food of Egyptian plover is insects or other aquatic animals. The staple food of hippo is plants. What do they eat when they get into their mouths? more unreliable...

In fact, it is the food problem. The feed in the zoo is relatively fine, and there are various fruits rich in sugar. The food residues are more prone to tooth decay, so we need our breeders to help them brush their teeth. "

"Oh~"

Everyone made a sudden sound.

The breeder carefully examined the fat mouth, especially the roots of the teeth.

Then I patted my fat, thick upper lip and made a "piapia" sound!

Chubby suddenly opened his mouth to the maximum!

The breeder soaked the brush in the water and then brushed the hippo's teeth.

Swipe left and right, Chubby closed his eyes and behaved extremely well-behaved!

"It looks so enjoyable!"

"Haha, I feel like I'm going to fall asleep!"

"I see, hippos also need to brush their teeth. If they don't brush their teeth, their teeth will turn black and yellow. You have to brush your teeth every day, do you know?"

Some parents take this opportunity to educate their children.

It was over in about a minute or two. The breeder touched its teeth, checked the cleanliness, and rubbed it lightly to make an oral spa.

Then take out some foods like sweet potatoes and pumpkins and put them in the chubby mouth as a reward for brushing their teeth.

He patted Chubby's upper lip. Chubby knew that he was done brushing, closed his mouth and chewed it twice, then slowly sank into the water.

"Eat after brushing your teeth, pay attention!"

"As long as they don't poop, hippos are still cute!"

The tourists were very happy and clapped and clapped.

...

The rice fields in the local exhibition area have just been irrigated in the past two days, and no rice has been planted yet.

Due to the epidemic, this farming activity has naturally been cancelled, and the zoo's employees will do the planting themselves.

When Tang Xiaoxin walked through the paddy field, she suddenly said with joy, "Hey, dragonfly!"

A few dragonflies hovered lightly in the air, their crystal translucent wings, under the sunlight, showed a gorgeous metallic luster, and their stomachs were bright red like blood, which was beautiful and moving.

Suddenly it flew away like an arrow from the string, and then stopped on the water surface of the rice field, and tapped the water with its tail.

Sometimes it landed on stones or slender grass tips, folded its wings and stood slim.

I couldn't help but leaned closer and took a closer look, and took two pictures.

I never paid attention to an ordinary animal like a dragonfly before, but now I find it is quite beautiful.

The appearance of dragonflies means that the ecosystem here is more complete.

At this moment, a red-eared bulbul appeared out of nowhere, flew down, and caught the dragonfly with precision.

He flew to the top of the tree with a dragonfly in his mouth, and jumped in front of another red-eared bulbul, as if he was courting.

Two red-eared Bulbul danced and chased between the tree canopies, and there was a chirping and chirping sound of birds nearby, which was full of vitality.

...

Black Eyebrows Snake House!

In the warm afternoon sun, a yellow and black snake is lying on the windowsill, forming a group to bask in the sun quietly, giving people a feeling of quiet time.

The broom, the bamboo sieve, the broken bowl, the blackened wall and the portrait of the kitchen master are full of fireworks.

Such a unique environment of the exhibition hall has attracted many enthusiastic onlookers.

Those who grew up in the countryside before, showed nostalgic eyes, and those who had never been to the countryside looked at it with relish.

On the glass is a small tile with an arrow that says "please look here".

Sometimes the black eyebrows hide under the stove, or hide behind the broom of the pickled cabbage jar, which is not easy to find. After tourists find it, they can adjust the position indicated by the magnet to help future tourists find it better.

Of course, this black eyebrow will bask in the sun openly, and it can be easily found without looking at the arrow.

According to the popular science exhibition card next to it, the black-browed brocade snake gets its name from a striking black eyebrow pattern behind the eyes, and it is called the cauliflower snake together with the king brocade snake.

Because of its large size, non-venomous, and slow movement, it is also the most common edible snake on the market.

Of course, the ones sold in the market are all under the banner of breeding. In fact, a large part of them come from the wild, which makes the black eyebrows almost endangered now.

There are many parasites such as nematodes and tapeworms in wild snakes, which are very dangerous to eat.

Moreover, the black-browed brocade snake has a great effect on controlling the number of rodents. It is the natural enemy of the brown house mouse that is flooding in the city. Protecting snakes is actually protecting ourselves.

Many people are afraid of snakes, but if we know about snakes, we will know that 99% of snakes will run away when they encounter people or are too scared to run away. At this time, you can stomp them to scare them away. It is absolutely impossible to hurt or kill snakes. necessary.

Tourists commented: "This black eyebrow is really handsome!"

"I have seen this kind of snake before, and now I know its name."

"When I was a child, a cauliflower snake came into my house! At night, when Dad heard the movement, he got up and took it away."

"It's really rare to see them now, hopefully they won't be the next Sparrow."

"Hey, my house has a lot of rat thieves. At night, I can hear rats crawling up and down the pipes. It's very loud, and I often run into the kitchen and put food on the cabinet. The cabinet door will do. I have tried all kinds of mouse traps, mouse traps, and sticky mouse boards, and they are as good as ghosts, but they don't work at all. I really hope there are black eyebrows to cure them."

"When everyone sees a snake and doesn't shout to kill it or grab it to make soup, it is estimated that this idea can be realized."
