Super Zoo
Chapter 102 Freedom
The wolf king does not have the ability to express his thoughts accurately like a human, but he has the intelligence of a child of several years old and can do some simple thinking. He has been in contact with Su Ming for a period of time. With the help of animal friends, his intelligence has improved.
During this period, he has been howling to convey a simple message to Su Ming: freedom.
Freedom is something that is imprinted in the bones of all wild animals. They would rather endure hunger and cold, fight against the sky and people, and fight against other ferocious beasts, than be kept in a cell like a pet for people's entertainment.
The wolf king and his wife are old and have lived in the zoo for many years. Even if they go to the wild, they will probably not be able to adapt and survive.
But the wolf cub is different. It is still young and has the ability to adapt to life in the wild and return to the vast nature, instead of living in this iron cage all its life and being watched by people.
No parents in the world would want their children to lose their freedom and live in a cage from birth.
The wolf king looked at Su Ming coldly.
"Brother, when you ask me to do something, can you look a little friendlier? Don't pretend to be cool and pretend to be Ximen Chuxue all day long!" Su Ming and the wolf king squatted side by side on the steps of the wolf house. Su Ming turned his head and looked at the wolf king, saying unhappily.
Wolves are born with that kind of cold eyes and are not good at expressing emotions. Even when looking at wolf cubs, they still have this look.
The wolf king can "condescend" to squat side by side with Su Ming like a big dog, which is quite respectful. Occasionally, tourists who pass by the front of the wolf house are all shocked when they see this scene and take out their mobile phones to take pictures.
"The wolf is in a bad mood today, so I won't take pictures! Those who have nothing to do, go boating and fishing!"
Su Ming waved his hand to drive away the tourists like flies, and communicated with the wolf king with his mental power, trying to calm his emotions first. The old wolf king is already in his twilight years, and his health is not very good. Don't worry about it.
In theory, training animals so that they can return to nature is one of the zoo's own responsibilities. As long as there is a suitable way to allow the wolf cub to return to nature, Director Song will not object.
One of the most important responsibilities of the provincial animal protection center is to "release them into the wild", cultivate the wildness of animals, and release them back to nature.
"Release them into the wild" is easy to say, but it is difficult to do. It requires a lot of human and material resources, and there is a lot of follow-up work to be done. The country has limited resources in this regard, so for the time being, it can only be used on endangered animals such as giant pandas and finless porpoises. The level of prairie wolves is not high enough, and it is impossible to spend energy and money specifically.
Moreover, the act of releasing them into the wild itself also has major risks. Wild animals are naturally adapted to the wild environment, and can learn survival skills from their parents and tribes. The wolf cub was born in a zoo, and the "relatives and friends" around him were all captive animals. The skills of hunting and surviving in the wild have long been forgotten, and the little wolf cub has nowhere to learn.
Releasing the little wolf cub back to nature rashly will only backfire.
But compared with the wolf king, the wolf cub also has natural advantages. It is still young and has not been assimilated by humans. It is like a blank sheet of paper. If it is properly trained from a young age, it will be able to return to nature when it grows up.
After Su Ming left the wolf house, he went directly to find Director Song and told him his thoughts.
As expected, Director Song's thoughts were similar to Su Ming's. Although prairie wolves are protected animals, they are not particularly rare. A few more or a few less will not have a big impact on the zoo.
On the contrary, if the wolf cubs can be trained to return to nature, it will not only be good for animals, but also for the zoo. With a little publicity, it will be a very good political achievement project.
"Since you have this idea, I don't object. But there are two points. First, you can't hurt people or wolves; second, the zoo can't afford to do this for the time being." Director Song said directly.
"No problem, as long as you nod, I will have a bottom line in my heart." Su Ming said.
"How are you going to start? Releasing the wolf into the wild is a major problem all over the world. The province has been experimenting with releasing the baiji dolphins for many years, but they have not been successfully released into the wild." Director Song asked curiously.
Su Ming thought for a while and said, "I don't have any good ideas for the time being, but I think that the wolf cubs have just been born and cannot live in the wolf house all the time. Otherwise, over time, they will get used to being raised by people and lose their wildness. It will be even more difficult to release them into the wild in the future."
Director Song was a little surprised and asked tentatively, "You mean, let the wolf cubs out?"
"Yes!" Su Ming nodded as a matter of course.
"That's a wolf! Don't look at it as a little bit now, it won't take long for it to hurt people!" Dean Song said.
"Director, I'll take them with me, you should be relieved!" Su Ming said as he picked up a water bottle and filled the cup in front of Director Song with water with a smile.
Director Song hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed reluctantly, "Xiao Su, don't make any trouble. If there is anything wrong, lock up the wolf cub immediately!"
"Don't worry, it's just a little wolf. With you in charge of the zoo, it would lie down obediently even if it was a dragon, let alone jackals, tigers and leopards."
"Stop smiling. You are restless. The Navy Lake has just prospered, and now the wolf cub incident has popped up, making me and the people behind me nervous."
"Hehe, with you on top, our zoo's boat can't capsize!"
After getting the approval of Director Song, Su Ming had the imperial sword in hand and returned to the wolf house to pick up the little wolf.
The wolf house was Master Peng's territory. He greeted Master Peng first and then took the little wolf out directly.
The wolf king and the mother wolf did not send the little wolf off for eighteen miles like most parents who had their sons going on a long journey. The old couple looked at the little wolf with cold eyes across the cage, then turned around at the same time and returned to the den, as if they were taking away someone else's child.
"Ah..." The little wolf lay on the cement steps outside the wolf house and made a pitiful cry to his parents in the darkness in the distance.
Seeing that his parents were unmoved, the little wolf tilted his head and looked at Su Ming. His little head could not understand why his parents didn't want him anymore.
Growth is bound to be accompanied by pain. Su Ming snapped his fingers at the little guy, turned around and walked slowly out, saying casually: "Let's go, wolves must learn to grow up on their own..."
Su Ming left, and the wolf king and his wife ignored it again. The little wolf stood on the steps alone, looking around blankly.
A gust of wind blew, and the little wolf couldn't help shrinking his neck. His two little ears stood up all of a sudden. He looked at the wolf house with some nostalgia, as if he had made up his mind. He turned around and ran towards Su Ming on his four legs, running faster and faster.
