i have a zoo

Chapter 15
Hearing Xiao Zhu's cry, Tang Ping looked in the direction he pointed,
It turned out that it was a monkey paddling the water with both arms on a small bamboo raft, and from time to time it even cupped its hands at people.

Walking forward from the alpaca circle is the monkey mountain of the zoo.

The macaques living in Monkey Mountain are also the largest group in the zoo.

Tang Ping and the others approached the location of Monkey Mountain and found that this area is also a typical round pit cage.

There is also a "moat" around the monkey mountain made of stone in the middle.
The rowing monkey they saw just now is on the "moat".

When they walked to the fence, they could already see the appearance of the monkey clearly.
These monkeys are common sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, with little facial hair.
With two round almond-shaped eyes, it is just like the mortal body of Sun Dasheng.

Most of their coat color is grayish-yellow taupe, while the back is brownish-gray and brownish-yellow, and the belly is light grayish-yellow.

Of course, the most conspicuous thing is their red buttocks, which really look like a love peach against the backdrop of well-developed buttocks.

"Tang Ping, what kind of monkey is that Sun Dasheng?" Xiao Zhu asked while holding the camera.

"Uh, Sun Wukong is a spirit stone monkey, from the myth!"

Tang Ping blurted out, and seeing Xiao Zhu looking at him like an idiot after speaking, he immediately reacted and spoke in a calm tone.

"However, although he is in mythology, he still has a realistic image basis. Well, it is generally believed that his image is based on a macaque."

"Wow! Then these macaques may be close relatives of Sun Dasheng." Xiao Zhu was a little excited.

Tang Ping heard Xiao Zhu's words, and felt that since Xiao Zhu entered the zoo, he talked a lot more than before.

Because they have been walking under the sun for a long time, they are a little hot and tired,

This time around the Monkey Mountain, they shot a circle of material, and the two of them were going to continue walking inside, and finished shooting quickly. The weather was still too hot.

However, Tang Ping was still a little puzzled when he saw that brother monkey who was still paddling a bamboo raft on the water.

Because only one monkey is paddling on the water, and the other monkeys are playing on the monkey mountain.

"Xiao Zhu, why do you think this monkey brother is paddling the bamboo raft?
It's rare that it wants to learn from its predecessor, the Monkey King, by paddling a bamboo raft to Fangcun Mountain to learn from a teacher? "

Speaking of Tang Ping, he couldn't help laughing.

"Reporter Tang, you are very imaginative! The weather is so hot and it's hard for you two to come to our zoo for an interview."

It was not Xiao Zhu who answered Tang Ping, but Qi Ming who rushed over from the dormitory.

In fact, when Tang Ping and the others entered the zoo, Xiaoli told him,
But since Tang Ping and the others didn't tell him in advance, he didn't bother to accompany them wandering around the park on a hot day, and just followed them from the perspective of the game.

It wasn't until Tang Ping was spat out twice by the beast that he hurried down to save the scene. Don't let the reporter get angry and stop filming.
It will be troublesome if the interview time is postponed to tomorrow or when.

When I walked to the Monkey Mountain, I heard Tang Ping's question, and he naturally answered it.

"Oh! This is Director Qi, Director Liu told me that you are quite young,

Looking at it now, it really looks like a young hero!Young and promising! "

Tang Ping looked back and saw Qi Ming said politely inside, in fact, he had already seen the photo of the director of the zoo before coming here.

"Then Director Qi, I have wanted to ask since just now, why are the roads in your park full of animal pictorials? Is there any mystery to this?"

After saying hello, Tang Ping immediately asked out the doubts in his heart,

As a reporter, he didn't want to know anything about the interviewee.

"This! Reporter Tang, let's save this question for the official interview later.

I will give you a detailed answer to this question when we interview later, let me keep it a secret for now! "

Qi Ming smiled and did not answer Tang Ping's doubts, but seeing the doubts on Tang Ping's face, he continued.

"However, Monkey Mountain, the boating old king, I can tell you now, what do you think, Reporter Tang?"

"Haha, it's okay, anyway, the interview is only 10 minutes away now,

I think the director must have more surprises waiting for us,
Then you can tell the story of this "Lao Wang" first, why do you call it this name? "

Tang Ping answered with a smile, and finally asked another question,
He felt that he had more problems when he came to this zoo.

"Haha, it's like this, the monkey brother on the bamboo raft is the former monkey king of this group of monkeys,

So we usually call him "Lao Wang". "

Qi Ming pointed to the "Lao Wang" who was still rowing on the water and said.

"That's it, then why does "Old Wang" still come out to row a boat?"

"In the monkey group, the monkey king changes every four years.

In the wild too!The former monkey king is usually expelled from the monkey group after being kicked out.

Become a lone monkey and wander around, or stay alive and become the lowest monkey in the pack. "

"But because it is in the zoo, "Old Wang" has no place to go after losing the position.

It can only choose to live in the group, but due to its low status, it often does not get enough food. "

"Of course the breeder will secretly add meals to Lao Wang during the feeding process.

At first, the breeder fed Lao Wang directly, but later he found that Lao Wang was often beaten by other monkeys after eating.

Therefore, the additional meals will be at night when the monkeys return to the infield,
Put Pharaoh in a separate cage for extra meals, but Pharaoh still can't get enough to eat during the day. "

"Later, the breeder found out that Lao Wang was unhappy in Monkey Mountain,

Sometimes I like to paddle a bamboo raft and play on the water alone.
Just give it extra meals at the back of Monkey Mountain during the day when it is rowing bamboo rafts.

Later, Lao Wang got used to the life of rowing bamboo rafts on the water, and finally Lao Wang became a scene on the Monkey Mountain side. "

After listening to Lao Wang's story, Tang Ping wondered why he didn't raise Lao Wang independently?After thinking about it, I asked a question.

"Principal Qi, after hearing this, I really want to ask why you didn't raise Lao Wang independently?"

"It's reporter Tang, this macaque is a social animal,
If Pharaoh lived alone together, he would probably develop mental illness without the attention of the group.
In fact, we have tried it, but Lao Wang himself is not very cooperative.

And Lao Wang's life in the group is actually not that miserable,
With the supply of sufficient food, his physique is relatively strong in the group,

So except Xiao Wang sometimes beats it, other monkeys will not bully it,

It just lost the right to mate more than before. "

When Qi Ming heard Tang Ping's question, he quickly explained, and added another sentence at the end.

"This little king is the current monkey king of the monkey group."

[Non-text content] Animal anecdotes: When humans are shy or excited, their cheeks will turn red,
The red monkey is the buttocks, the more mature the monkey, the redder the buttocks.

It will be redder when it is in estrus, because the redder it is, the more attractive it is to the opposite sex.
What's more interesting is that the weaker male monkeys often show their buttocks to the stronger male monkeys to show submission.
