Chapter 585 (1/2)

See Ping Ping put his foot on the railing, the small hole ”click” pressed the buzzer, and threw a carrot into Ping Ping's mouth.

Pingping picked up carrots with his nose and ate them. Fangye also took a short man in the shape of a long ruler and filed it on Pingping's toes.

Su Hui was surprised: ”Wow, so good!”

”As soon as the keeper pointed, the elephant lifted his feet up!”

”This toe is like a big steamed bread. One toe is bigger than my fist.”

”What if it hurts? Will you kick someone angrily? I feel that this job is still a little dangerous!”

”Fix your toenails. It'll be much more comfortable to walk. Can you be angry about your good things? Look at him.”

”It's so human. If you know what's good for it, you won't move!”

”Elephants are really smart!”

For fear of disturbing his work, the tourists talked less, but they were all looking ahead, taking photos and observing the soles of the elephants.

Another breeder, Xiao Qing, kept order on one side and kept everyone one meter away from the railing to facilitate the operation of the breeder.

While filing Ping Ping's feet, Fang Ye explained with a smile: ”it's not a smart problem. Repairing elephants' feet is really good for them. Elephants may also understand this, but they can't cooperate with elephants alone.

The most important thing is our usual behavior training!

At the beginning, we will guide the elephant and touch the target stick with our feet. When the elephant does it right, we will click with the clicker. This is equivalent to telling the elephant that it does it right, and then take out a small piece of food such as apples and carrots they usually like to eat as a reward to make the elephant happy to accept training.

The process of behavior training is also the process of building trust between breeders and elephants. It is simple to say, but it is very troublesome to operate in practice. The first step alone took a month.

After being familiar with the first step, raise the target bar, let the elephant put his feet in the pedicure window, and then slowly let it be familiar with the inspection and pedicure process and various pedicure tools, and master the process step by step. ”

”Oh ~”

The tourists made a sudden sound.

Yan ganghui had a wonderful feeling in his heart.

In the past, I thought that the breeder shoveled excrement to feed animals, which seemed to be no different from raising chickens and pigs. Now, it's really not a simple job.

We not only need to understand animals and master various theoretical knowledge, but also need to cultivate feelings and enhance trust with animals, coupled with skilled technology, in order to complete this cooperation.

The zoo is not only a place to show people all kinds of strange animals, but also can show the green way of farming, the way to live in harmony with nature, understand the content of behind the scenes behavior training, and arouse people's concern and love for nature.

Linhai zoo really opened his eyes!

I know what a good zoo should be like.

Fangye filed his flat toes, and the dust and debris fell from it one after another.

Pedicure looks easy, it's still very hard.

After filing, he took a small knife and gouged out the dead skin on his toes.

”If you don't cut the carrot, you'll eat it if you trim one toe!”

”It looks like enjoying it!”

”Good boy, it's like being hit by a acupoint! Won't it itch?”

”Master, use your strength! I'm tired!”
