Super Zoo

Su Ming also considered how to "arrange" the five big fish.

The smallest of these five fish weighed more than 100 jin, and the largest black carp weighed 180 jin. They certainly couldn't be killed for meat or sold like ordinary fish.

In modern society, it is extremely rare for fish to grow to such a large size. It takes at least several decades. In the words of the older generation, such big fish are "spiritual" and it is unknown if they are killed.

As for releasing them, that's nonsense. Not to mention that Su Ming bought them with money, even if he really released them, they might be caught by people downstream in a few days.

These days, there are sand mining ships and fishing boats everywhere in the rivers, and the sewage is serious. The living environment of wild animals has been destroyed. It is probably better for these fish to live with Su Ming in the wild.

In the final analysis, Su Ming is not a great and glorious person in his bones. He is too lazy to do things that sacrifice himself for the public.

Under normal circumstances, most of the fish that are caught will be exhibited and charged admission. People want to see something rare. Such big fish, and five at once, there must be many people willing to spend money to see them.

Su Ming thought further. He has the ability of animal friends. If he only uses a few big fish for exhibition, it would be a waste of resources.

As he said to the reporter, he really wants to develop a "riding fish" project.

Riding horses is very common, but riding fish is unprecedented. Zoos all over the world, including Disney, do not have a riding fish project.

Raising horses is very expensive. A batch of good horses is expensive in itself. In addition to feed and artificial maintenance, the investment is huge. At the same time, riding horses is relatively dangerous, so it is not so popular in China.

Big fish are different. Five fish together cost less than 10,000 yuan. A good horse costs more than this price for one leg. It is easy to deal with them because they eat and drink. They eat what the fish in the lake eat. They are not easy to get sick and are very easy to raise.

Therefore, the prospects of the riding fish project are beyond doubt.

But if we want to really come up with a safe and fun fish riding project, the conditions are not yet mature.

Su Ming can control these big fish with his mental power, but it doesn't mean that other people can ride them. If someone else were to do it, the big fish would not let the other person ride them obediently, and Su Ming would need to slowly "teach" them.

In addition, the management problem needs to be solved. Like the cruise project, the fish riding project definitely needs people to manage it, and they must have certain professional knowledge.

The keepers of ordinary aquariums can do this job, but Yangchuan Zoo is very poor, and there are no decent aquatic creatures at all, let alone the "high-end configuration" of aquariums, and of course there are no aquarium keepers.

It can't be said that there are no aquatic creatures. In fact, there are still many aquatic creatures in the zoo, and they are all in the Shuijun Lake. Although there are no rare protected animals, at least there are enough.

The fish riding project cannot be launched for the time being. Not only the fish riding, but also the cruise business has been suspended due to the arrival of the finless porpoise family to avoid the injured finless porpoise from being frightened.

Professor Chu kept his word and allocated two thousand yuan from the research funds to Su Ming to compensate him for his losses during this period.

"Two thousand yuan..."

Su Ming was speechless when he received the money. Not to mention the losses of the cruise business, the fish eaten by the two little porpoises recently alone were probably more than two thousand yuan.

These two little guys are worthy of the name "****". They are really as hungry as pigs. Although they are small in size, they are not much bigger than babies. But they play and eat from morning to night. They can eat several large buckets of food a day.

As the saying goes, a child without a mother is the most pitiful, but it is just the opposite for Su Ming. Su Ming is reluctant to treat these two guys badly. He did not let them eat the four major carps in the lake. Instead, he went to the market every day to buy anchovies, big silver fish and perch, which are the favorite foods of porpoises.

God and the Constitution both say that all people are born equal. By analogy, animals should also be equal.

In fact, this is absolutely nonsense.

Just like people with good looks are treated preferentially wherever they go, as two of the few remaining wild finless porpoises in the world, the treatment of the two finless porpoise babies is the best in the entire zoo.

After a few days, the appetites of the two boys have been spoiled, and they are disdainful of the ordinary domestic fish in the lake.

Despite this, Su Ming was really embarrassed to complain about the small amount of money. Just for the two thousand yuan subsidy, the investigation team held a special discussion meeting and went through a lot of procedures before it was approved.

It is glorious to protect animals, but no matter how well you do, you can't increase the country's GDP by a dime. Professor Chu and his team have insufficient funds all year round, and being able to take out two thousand yuan is already very considerate.

Su Ming is too lazy to worry about this little money now, so he simply drove a small assault boat himself, moored in the middle of Shuijun Lake, lying on a recliner to bask in the sun, and spreading his mental power into the water.

During this period, the fish in the lake have grown a circle. At this crazy growth rate, they can be sold in a few months.

Several alligator gars have been much more well-behaved recently. Without Su Ming's control, they would go to Huating Reservoir on time every day to find food. When they were full, they would come back and rest in the water area designated by Su Ming. This saved Su Ming a lot of worry.

The alligator turtles and big-headed catfish had nothing to do. They only ate all day long and grew taller.

The alligator turtles were better. They mainly grew muscles and looked like a bodybuilder. With their ferocious shells, they looked quite majestic. If they went out in the middle of the night, they would probably scare a lot of people.

Bighead is not so good. He is fat and stupid, and has the tendency to mutate into a pig. At first glance, he looks like a fat black porpoise.

The mother porpoise is receiving treatment, and the baby porpoise is out of control. He hangs around in the water army lake like two idle ruffians all day long. Sometimes when he sees tourists, he pops up to spray water, spins around and twists his butt to get some food and screams from little girls.

When they saw Su Ming's boat coming, the two baby porpoises made cheerful calls from a distance, jumped out of the water against the wind, and jumped to the side of the speedboat in a few steps. They stood up straight and twisted on the water.

Su Ming threw a perch out of the bucket. The perch was in the air and had not fallen into the water yet. The baby porpoise waiting on the side of the boat jumped, its tail close to the water, as if gliding on the water, and grabbed the perch in one bite.

The other baby porpoise didn't get to eat, and cried anxiously, stepping on the water and lying on the side of the boat with its fins, its round head desperately arched towards the bucket.

"You look useless..." Su Ming caught another squid and threw it over. The squid's tentacles parted in the wind and hit the baby porpoise's face.

The baby porpoise opened its mouth wide, leaned back slightly, and then sucked hard, like sucking noodles, and sucked the whole squid into its stomach.

"Don't eat it, go see your mother!"

"See your mother" has recently become a popular word in Yangchuan City. Since the TV reported the three porpoises in the zoo, a large number of tourists have come every day to see this animal that is rarer than the giant panda. Later, I don't know who wrote a funny article on the Internet, the name of which is "I'm here to see your mother".

This article went viral overnight, and "see your mother" became a popular word, referring to "seeing something rare".
