But he knew that Pingping didn't want to shake hands with him, the relationship wasn't that good yet, he was sticking out his nose to eat.

He took an apple from the side and handed it to the tip of his flat nose.

Pingping the tip of his nose, he retracted his nose from the railing, opened his mouth, put it in, and stretched his nose out again.

After eating a few apples in a row, I felt a lot of joy, and my eyes narrowed.

"Wow, this elephant eats apples just like people eat jujubes!"

"These few apples don't seem to be enough for them to stick between their teeth, and their mouths don't move much."

"It's really edible."

While feeding it, Fang Ye said: "Our zoo mainly feeds the elephants forage, carrots, apples, and Chinese cabbage in the spring. If the food is sufficient, the elephants can eat one or two hundred kilograms of food a day.

However, their absorption efficiency is relatively low, and they cannot regurgitate the cud. They can only absorb about 40%, and the remaining 60% will be pulled out without digestion. Eat more and pull more, the amount of bowel movements per day is amazing. "

After feeding for a long time, I brought a bucket with water, which is the kind that is used to throw mops in ordinary homes.

Pingping put his nose into the bucket, sucking and sucking with all his strength, he could see the water in the bucket, and the speed that was visible to the naked eye decreased.

After inhaling the water, he rolled up his nose and put it back to his mouth, raised his head, narrowed his eyes halfway, and drank, with water droplets falling from his mouth to the ground.

Like the Russians drink vodka, tons, tons, tons!

Fang Ye picked up the bucket and showed it to the netizens. The bucket that was filled with water just now had a bottom left.

The size of the elephant is not only reflected in its huge size, but even the simplest behavior of eating and drinking is very shocking.

Netizens were stunned: "Damn, drink water too fast!"

"This bucket of water can be sucked clean with one nose?"

"Mom asked me why I was on my knees watching the live broadcast!"

"This elephant's trunk is like a straw. It's so interesting to drink water."

"It turns out that elephants drink water with their mouths! I always thought they were sucking water directly into their stomachs with their trunks."

"Me too... I have made mistakes for so many years, brother Meng buried me."

"I didn't even think about it. /Cry with laughter"

"I remember that when I was a child, I also learned how to drink water with an elephant's trunk. I felt very powerful... and then I choked on myself."

"Haha, spicy, you're a real bullshit!"

Fang Ye said with a smile: "The elephant's trunk is really powerful! The human body has a total of 639 muscles, and there are more than 40,000 muscles on the elephant's trunk, which can help them do many complex things.

In terms of water absorption, it can absorb 7-12 liters of water at one time, and the speed of water absorption can reach 3.7 liters per second, which is equivalent to flushing 20 toilets at the same time.

The function of the nose is complex, and it takes a long time to learn and adapt to use it. For example, the baby elephant cannot use the nose proficiently, and can only kneel beside the stream to drink water. "

As he was talking, Pingping rolled up a branch with a thickness of 2 or 3cm and a length of more than one meter with his nose.

Holding the branch firmly in front of his nose, he scratched repeatedly around his eyes.

When scratching his face, the muscles on his face also shrugged, and his eyes narrowed from time to time, looking very comfortable.

After finishing his face, he scratched his ears with a branch, scratched the top of his head, and rubbed his lower abdomen.

The movement is very skilled, like a human scratching it with a tickle!

In the wild, elephants tickle themselves with branches like this.

"Wow, this nose is really like an arm! It's so flexible."

"I'm a little worried. This branch looks pretty good. What should I do if I hurt myself?"

"You underestimate the rough skin and thick flesh of an elephant. It is difficult for an anesthesia needle to go in, let alone such a small branch. And you can control how hard it is."

Fang Ye watched it scratching himself, and said to netizens: "The elephant has just been vaccinated these two days, and has been given deworming drugs to expel parasites inside and outside the body. Let's take you to see the new green peacock. The green peacock has been quarantined and is now in the birdhouse."

The animals sent by the system are all quarantined and have relevant certificates.

On the way, an online game asked, "Director, are there really no green peacocks in domestic zoos?"

Fang Ye sighed: "Speaking of this, it is also a shame for domestic zoos.

Originally, an important role of the zoo was to protect and breed, but at that time, the zoo was still relatively chaotic, and the awareness of protection was not in place.

Since the introduction of blue peacocks, the rare green peacocks like phoenixes have been mixed with blue peacocks that can be placed on the dining table and are similar to domestic chickens, polluting the precious genes of green peacocks, and pure-bred green peacocks are becoming less and less.

Now all the green peacocks in domestic zoos have been wiped out, leaving only a bunch of mixed-race bunches. "

"It's too bad."

"I heard smoke from my seven orifices."

Come to the Tropical Birdhouse.

The environment that the peacock likes is the tropical monsoon forest, which is similar to the environment of the savanna.

I don't like to stay in the densely wooded place in the middle of the birdhouse. It turns out that the blue peacock also likes to stay in the middle of the road to bask in the sun. They are used to the coming and going of tourists, and they are peaceful.

Now that the green peacocks are here, in order to avoid mixing, several blue peacocks have returned to the peacock lawn outside.

In fact, in general, blue-green peacocks do not mate. The differences between the two types of peacocks are obvious and their aesthetics are different. When so many parrots are put together, they also choose their own parrots as mates.

In order to build the name of the hometown of peacocks and increase tourism income, many parks in Yunnan introduced blue peacocks in large numbers. When blue peacocks were released for the first time, they were very unpopular when they flew to the green peacock habitat, and they were pecked in the face. , Some feathers were pecked off, and some eyes were pecked blind, very miserable, and fled back.

Another relatively open place is in the middle of the bird house, under the huge four-figure tree, and a river pond. A few green peacocks are not used to tourists' activities, and they all stay there, hiding behind the trees when there is movement.

Fang Ye's head turned left and right, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Well, have you seen the green peacock?"

As he pointed to it, the blue carp also moved the camera over.

Netizens were stunned!

A green peacock was on the grass, with long legs and a low body, walking forward with small steps, shaking its head.

Green slender neck, blue wings, tail feathers are not too long, is a female peacock.

Walking to a sunny place, under the golden sunlight, the green neck looks like a golden emerald.

The wings are the color of a beautiful sea, and there is a faint blue in the green, like a magnificent gem. Even the tail is bright yellow, and there seems to be a faint glow.

Shockingly beautiful!
