Chapter 738 (1/2)

The hippo's mouth is as wide as the upper body of the breeder squatting by the pool.

It feels like you can swallow the breeder in one bite!

The breeder's arm poked around in the hippo's mouth, which made the tourists sweat.

”My God, this mouth is so big!”

”If the hippo's mouth is closed, its arm will not be directly bitten off.”

Another keeper explained outside: ”rest assured, we usually take care of hippos and conduct behavior training. Hippos are familiar with this operation. It's also very comfortable to clean their teeth and remove food residues, so we won't attack the keeper.”

Someone asked curiously, ”why should hippos brush their teeth? Will they decay if they don't brush their teeth? Who brushes their teeth in the wild?”

”I remember in the wild of Africa, there seems to be a kind of Egyptian babbler bird, nicknamed toothpick bird, which can pick the hippo's teeth! There is no Egyptian babbler in the zoo, so we can only rely on the keeper.”

”Well, didn't you pick the crocodile's teeth?”

Tang Xiaoxin said, ”anyway, I know it's fake to pick crocodiles' teeth. Crocodiles don't need to pick their teeth at all.”

The keeper said: ”in the wild, there are not Egyptian babblers picking their teeth. Their main food is insects or other aquatic animals. Hippos' staple food is plants. What do they eat in their mouth? It's more unreliable than picking their teeth for crocodiles

It's actually a matter of food. The feed eaten in the zoo is relatively fine, and there are all kinds of sugar rich fruits. Food residues are more likely to decay teeth, so we need our keepers to help them brush their teeth. ”

”Oh ~”

Everyone made a sudden sound.

The breeder carefully examined the fat mouth, especially the root of the teeth.

Then he patted his fat and thick upper lip and made a sound of ”piapia”!

Pangpang immediately opened his mouth to the maximum!

The breeder soaked the brush in the water and then brushed the hippo's teeth.

Brush left and brush right, Pangpang closed his eyes and behaved very skillfully!

”It looks so enjoyable!”

”Ha ha, I feel like I'm going to sleep!”

”See, hippos also have to brush their teeth. If they don't brush their teeth, their teeth will become black and yellow. You have to brush your teeth every day, do you know?”

Some parents take this opportunity to educate their children.

It was over in a minute or two. The keeper touched his teeth, checked the cleanliness, and gently rubbed it to make an oral spa.

Then take out some food such as sweet potato and pumpkin and put it in Pangpang's mouth as a reward for brushing his teeth.

Patted Pangpang's upper lip. Pangpang knew it was finished. He closed his mouth and chewed twice, and then slowly sank into the water.

”Eat after brushing your teeth, pay attention to it!”

”As long as you don't shit, hippos are still cute!”

The tourists were very happy and clapped.

……

The paddy field in the local exhibition area has just been irrigated these two days and has not been planted with rice.

Due to the epidemic situation, this farming activity was naturally cancelled, and the zoo staff will plant it by themselves.
