Chapter 36 (1/2)
The tiger Pavilion is under construction, the panda Pavilion is designed, and the alpaca and peacock are solved in a low-cost way.
As for macaques and red foxes
The monkey mountain where the macaque is located, Fang Ye thinks it's OK.
Because at the beginning of the zoo, the monkey mountain was built on the scale of more than 100 macaques, with a large area of 1000 square meters.
Now there are only a dozen left, and there is more than enough space.
It may be because of the journey to the West written by Wu Chengen. Everyone agrees that the place where monkeys live should be the water curtain cave of Huaguo Mountain. When we don't know what animal welfare is, the zoo will basically build a monkey hall with a mountain.
The main habitat of rhesus monkeys is indeed in the dense forests or sparse forests and rocky mountains on the Rocky Mountains of Rocky Mountains, cliffs, ditches and rivers. The construction of Monkey Mountain virtually coincides with animal welfare and meets their needs for climbing and status expression.
Of course, in Fang Ye's opinion, there are still many disadvantages of monkey mountain. It is a pit type, which can easily arouse the desire of tourists to feed from a commanding position. In addition, there are not so many entertainment facilities.
However, the advantage of large space is that macaques usually play on the monkey mountain in the middle, which is a little away from the edge. They are less affected by feeding. In addition, there are few tourists in the zoo. At present, there is no obvious begging behavior.
The purpose of wildlife display in captive environment is to protect education and show their natural behavior in the wild environment, rather than doing nothing. Standing on the edge of the exhibition area, Baba waits for human feeding.
In fact, the animals in the zoo have a scientific proportion of what they eat every day. Don't throw it if you don't let it, but tourists want to feed it, which leads to the bad feeding of many animals and bad habits.
Fang Ye thinks it's a good thing to take over such a declining zoo. There are few animals, the living space is relatively spacious, there are few tourists, the breeder can supervise, and the influence of feeding and the line of sight pressure on animals are small.
Therefore, although some of these animals in the zoo are not very energetic, they at least do not have serious stereotyped behavior and begging behavior.
Far away.
In short, there is no such strong demand for complete reconstruction in Houshan.
You can first add some simple Fengrong facilities, such as swing, hanging rope and perch.
The pool is also a good entertainment place for macaques, but it involves waterway pipelines, which is more troublesome. We'd better wait for reconstruction.
The red fox is left. Fang Ye is a little embarrassed.
Small venues are too oppressive. It seems a little too wasteful to build a large venue for them like tigers and wolves.
The attack power of others is high. The purpose of separation is to protect tourists from injury. When the fox is forced to bite urgently, it can't kill people. At most, it should be vaccinated.
But like an alpaca or a peacock, you can't set aside a piece of land and put it outside. The fox is a ghost spirit. It won't stay in an area for people to visit. It's uncertain where to go.
After thinking for a long time, he sighed: ”ah, we can only build a small venue first!”
Because it is intended to be used as a transitional exhibition hall, the design is not very attentive.
100 square meters, the piano line barrier on the visiting surface, the ground is mainly made of yellow sand cushion materials, and some trees with thin trunks that can't climb are planted on the background wall, which looks more green and natural. Several thick logs in the middle are used as the abundant environment, and then two large stones and several bushes are placed to provide a place to hide.
Cost 4000 green leaf coins.
Although it is very simple and crude, it is many times better than their previous living conditions.
In the future, we can build a large hall to mix red foxes with other animals, such as deer.
Although red foxes are carnivorous animals, their recipes are mainly small animals such as mice, frogs and birds. They also eat some fruit. Deer can't cause harm, and they don't want to kill a deer to taste meat.
