Chapter 462 (2/2)

Fangye took an apple and handed it over: ”come and eat an apple.”

When she took the apple, she touched its nose.

Brother Zhong said with a smile, ”everyone likes elephants. Few people can resist contact with elephants.”

Hearing the smell of the story, Fang ye asked curiously, ”can you tell me?”

Brother Zhong pondered and said, ”when I was a child, I saw a photo album called my wildlife friends. In it, a little girl tipi had close contact with leopards, elephants, ostriches and all kinds of wildlife. It really shocked me when I was young. I think this is the best connection between people and animals.

Later, I gradually realized the shallowness of this idea. Elephants are regarded by the public as docile giants, but in the world, elephants kill and hurt people every day, and there are fierce conflicts between people and elephants. ”

Fang Ye nodded: ”indeed!”

People who love animals yearn to be close and friendly with wild animals.

However, wild animals are not domestic pets. The reality is very cruel. The relationship between people and animals is not so good.

It is a special case rather than a common case that he is happy to play the lion and the tiger like this.

And it's only in the zoo that we do this. The best way to get along in the wild is not to interfere.

”Because I like elephants and study elephants, I worked as a volunteer at the elephant camp for a while. In fact, volunteers are just a project for the elephant camp to make money. At that meeting, I met a girl who also came to be a volunteer and liked elephants very much. She also took a course in elephant grooming.

The elephant in the elephant camp is called Tudou. Tudou is a very dangerous elephant. He slapped the camp owner with his nose. The staff, including me, once shook the elephant man down, broke his leg and rested for four months. He also stepped on and kicked two other elephant men.

Although I introduced her to the dangers of potatoes, she didn't talk to me after the first introduction. She preferred what the camp owner said. Elephants like touching and hugging.

That girl ignored the protection facilities and liked to get close to potatoes. Every time potatoes pushed her, she felt like playing with her and smiled happily.

Several times, when she wanted to help the potato break the elephant grass and feed it water, the potato rudely grabbed the food from her hand and almost pulled her down. Several times, she almost hit her with her nose. At this time, her smile will disappear and show a puzzled expression.

When she wants to come, people love animals, animals can feel it, they will love and will not hurt people.

In fact, elephants don't need human help at all. The reason why the elephant didn't hurt her was very simple, because she didn't hinder her access to food and was afraid of being beaten.

According to my estimation in the elephant camp, less than 1% of people will accept the safety problem of elephants. In fact, a considerable proportion of captive elephants have tuberculosis and are two-way infectious with people. So far, I haven't met anyone who can touch an elephant but doesn't want to touch an elephant. ”

Fang Ye sighed: ”elephants are really attractive animals. Such a huge thing has thicker legs and pillars than people. Who doesn't want to touch it? ”

Brother Zhong has rich experience. He only came to the rescue center last year.

From his words, I can feel that he really likes elephants.

While chatting with him, Fang Ye listened to his story of contacting some elephants and fed Pingping food.

Rest, supplies are ready, and the car continues on the road.

Finally arrived at the zoo at 8 a.m. on the 18th.

The zoo's official account said that the news came to greet the elephant ahead of time. Some media reporters and many tourists at the zoo gate saw the truck coming. Suddenly, the spirit came up: ”here we come!”

The reporters ”click click” to take photos. Some tourists specially bought flowers and waved them in their hands with a smile. It seems that they are very happy with the arrival of elephants: ”Welcome! Welcome elephants to Linhai zoo! ”

Some tourists said curiously, ”eh, why does it look a little red? Isn't the elephant gray? ”

”... I don't know. Maybe it was in the sun?”
