Chapter 148 The Silly Eagle Finally Left
Hearing Qi Ming's words, Xiao Li was a little worried and said, "Won't they be angry if you play with the poisonous snakes?"

Qi Ming said with a smile: "If you play with snakes more, you will be familiar with this set of operations. In fact, many players raise snakes in the same way. Touch the snake's mouth with the hook to tell it that it is not time to eat, and the snake will naturally know that it is time to eat." What's the meaning.

And if the poisonous snake is angry, there will be an obvious intimidating action before the attack. The head is raised to the person, swaying back and forth, and the neck is tilted back in a movement of accumulating power, ready to be ejected. In this case, the breeder Just be careful and pay attention when you see it, and it doesn't mean that it is a good omen and there is no sudden bite. "

The venom of poisonous snakes is very precious, good steel should be used on the blade, and the venom will be used on prey!
It's not food, why waste precious venom, of course, it is to warn the threat first, after seeing the warning, the enemy will be indifferent, or even intensify before attacking.

Xiao Li nodded thoughtfully, she seemed relieved, but she was a little puzzled and said, "Since there are so many ways to prevent snake bites, and Master Li is also very experienced, why is he bitten several times?"

Qi Ming thought for a while: "This should be related to the space environment where the snake is raised! If a one-meter-long snake is raised in a one-meter-long tank, it is of course dangerous. People are within the attack range of the snake. It is just one bite, even if there is prevention, it is sometimes difficult to prevent, so if you keep poisonous snakes, you must give them more space!
A one-meter-long poisonous snake should be kept in a two-meter-three-meter tank, so that the snake can live in peace of mind and comfort, and the desire to attack will naturally be reduced, and the safety distance will be longer. Hiding to the other side, so that there is a buffer space, it is naturally much safer.

Now to clean the exhibition box of poisonous snakes, it is also done by two people together. One person is cleaning with a long tool, and the other is holding a snake hook to watch the position of the snake. If the snake is interested in people, it will swim through the cave. , or prepare to get down from the tree, just pull and pull backwards, so it is actually very safe. "

Many accidents caused by raising venomous snakes, in fact, the main reason is that there is not enough space for them.

"Ding Ding!"

Just as he was speaking, Qi Ming's cell phone rang again. He picked it up and found that it was Lao Zhao from the rare bird area.

"Director, Xiaojiao has changed a lot recently, and seems to want to leave."

Old Zhao said solemnly: "Recently Xiaojiao has been able to hunt live food normally, and looks like he is yearning for the sky. It feels like it can be released. Just to be safe, we can observe it for a few more days."

Qi Ming said decisively: "If possible, let it fly at night! Don't let it eat and drink anymore."

Of course, before the raptor is released, the health status and behavior must be evaluated by a veterinarian. If you observe its behavior, there is nothing wrong with it. When it sees people approaching, it will explode into a ball of hair and hit its beak. This is a typical wild behavior of eagle owls. .

"Xiao Li, I'm going to the rare bird area, are you going?"

"Let's go, let me see if there is any new material to record."

After finishing speaking, the two headed towards the rare bird area, and led by the breeder Lao Zhao to the eagle owl's cage.

The aviary was empty, and since he disappeared in broad daylight, he must have hid in the small house.

The small house hanging on the railing of the cage and the tree hole and rock crevice in the wild are the same function.

When the staff usually go in, if they see the horned owl standing outside, they will drive it away with a stick, scare it for a long time, force it to a corner, grab it, and send it to the small house before stopping.

This means educating it that it should avoid people when it sees it, and it cannot stand outside during the day, but must hide in the tree hole.

As if hearing Qi Ming's voice, Xiaojiao poked his head out of the small house sleepily, opened his eyes vigorously, then erected two ear feathers, and retracted his head vigilantly.

It seems that he has been educated by the breeder a lot and knows that he is afraid of people.

"Little horn? Little horn?"

Qi Ming called out twice with a smile, seeing that it was just peeping at him through the entrance of the small house, he said with relief: "Good! It's very promising!"

Old Zhao saw a feather with brown and black lines falling from the perch in the middle of the cage, his eyes lit up, he opened the door and walked in.

Picking up the feather, he said with a smile, "That's right, another one! Director, then I'm leaving!"

Qi Ming nodded and said, "Well, let's go!"

He knew that Old Zhao was in a hurry to deal with this feather.

For raptors, the most important ability to survive in the fiercely competitive wilderness is flight, and feathers directly determine the quality of flight ability.

Especially the primary flight feathers and tail feathers hold the extremely important functions of flight direction, flight power and braking.If these feathers are broken, even if they can still fly, it is impossible to survive.

Therefore, for raptor rescue, keeping the feathers of raptors can build a feather warehouse to help raptors of the same breed and age who cannot return to nature due to damaged feathers.

The feathers in the feather warehouse come from some raptors that were trapped and died by bird nets, or they were raised by the zoo itself, and the raptors rescued by the rescue station fell off naturally when they moulted.

Lao Zhao is an old bird breeder, but there are very few birds in Jiajia Zoo. He was so happy to have a rare opportunity to practice his mobile phone, and ran away with his feathers.

……

night!

When it got dark, Little Horn also became active, flew out of the little house, and stood on the perch in the middle of the aviary.

"Woo~woo~"

First, he made two tentative low calls, and then made a series of strange noises, like a sinister laugh.

"Card, card, card, card, card..."

Qi Ming, Xiao Li, and Lao Zhao also came over. In order not to make Xiao Jiao feel too nervous, Xiao Li and Lao Zhao stayed behind and observed from a distance.

Of course, Lao Zhao wanted to come over to observe and take notes, and Xiaoli was dragged by him to join in the fun.

Seeing Qi Ming approaching, Xiao Jiao was a little wary, hesitating whether to go back to the small house or not.

Qi Ming was pulling the rope outside the aviary, and carefully opened the roof.

Then he pointed to the top of Xiaojiao's head, and said with a soft smile, "Don't be afraid, you're free!"

Xiaojiao glanced at him with big round eyes, flapped his wings, and flew out from the ceiling without a sound, turning into a small shadow under the silver moonlight, and soon merged with the dark night in the distance.

Seeing Xiaojiao flying farther and farther in the night and then disappearing in a blink of an eye, Qi Ming was both relieved and somewhat disappointed.

Even though we didn't get along for a long time, he still likes Xiaojiao very much!
Thinking of the way it devoured the meat, a smile appeared on the corner of its mouth. Looking at the moonlight in the distance, he said softly, "Little Jiao, you must live well in the wild!"
