The black and white baby auk stood lively on the stage, its eyes chattering away, looking cute and adorable.
Seen from a distance, the little guy is all furry, like a little velvet ball.
When the Arctic breeze blows, the fur all over my body trembles slightly.
The audience fell into silence for a short time. No one wanted to be the first to try. They all wanted scientific research teams from other countries to try the water.
The four major scientific research countries present did not come forward. The United States, Russia, and Neon wanted other countries to test it out for them first.
The Huaguo scientific research team had no intention of taking any action and chose to trust Huo Yu unconditionally.
After a while, someone in the audience finally spoke.
"Let's try it first."
Huo Yu heard the sound and looked over. The person speaking was a representative of a scientific research team from a small European country.
Their country's scientific research strength is average, and only this year some members joined the Ice Keepers organization.
Huo Yu spread his hand to the baby auk and motioned for them to step onto the stage, and a total of three people from the other team also stepped forward generously.
The team leader was carrying a refrigerated and insulated bucket, which should contain some kind of food.
"Hello, Stationmaster Huo." The other party said in unfamiliar Chinese, "This is what we have prepared. Please check it out."
Seeing the other party's cooperation, Huo Yu also stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man and said with a smile: "Okay, just wait a moment."
Then, he glanced at Xie Jie beside him.
Xie Jie understood, immediately took the insulation bucket, and analyzed it on the spot with other Chinese researchers.
After opening the thermal insulation bucket, a rather unpleasant smell came to the face, and Huo Yu also curiously went over to take a look.
I saw that the bucket was filled with transparent shrimps with a body length of about 45 to 60 mm. Its breastplate was connected to the carapace and glowed slightly in the sunlight.
Huoyu recognized it immediately. Isn’t this thing Antarctic krill?
It seems that even the scientific research team in this small country has put real effort into this matter.
The brother of the great auk and the main food source of Antarctic penguins is this Antarctic krill.
Each penguin eats 0.75 kilograms of krill a day, and the total amount of krill eaten by penguins accounts for 90% of the total krill consumed by Antarctic birds.
It can be said that krill is penguins’ favorite food.
But will the auks also like the food that penguins like?
Ten minutes later, Xie Jie brought up the thermos bucket again and signaled that there was no problem with Huo Yu.
"Okay, let's start your performance." Huo Yu smiled.
He is also curious about whether the Arctic auks also like the food that Antarctic penguins like.
If you really like it, Huo Yu wouldn't mind trying to find a way to get some for little Q as a snack.
Although this stuff smells really bad...
"Little Q, let's try it." Huo Yu said to the baby auk.
Little Q limped to the thermos bucket and gently poked his little head forward like this...
Its little expression changed from anticipation to disgust, and then from disgust to shock.
The next second, it stretched out its small wings and pointed at the person in charge of the other party.
"Gaaaaaah~ (You are the eighth among people~)"
Phew——
Huo Yu almost laughed out loud and quickly covered it up with a cough.
The leader of the Xiaoguo team also looked embarrassed. It could be seen from the behavior of the baby auk that it was not interested in krill.
Krill are very smelly because they contain autolytic enzymes in their bodies. When they die, the proteins in their bodies will be decomposed and melted, and they will become very smelly.
There is a creature called fur seal in Antarctica, which is famous for its bad breath.
The famous bad breath of Antarctic fur seals is actually due to Antarctic krill.
Some scientific researchers have studied that Antarctic fur seals have bad breath that is 10,000 times worse than ordinary dogs!
This group of people brought krill from Antarctica, and naturally some individuals died during transportation. Although they were all sorted out, the smell was still difficult to get rid of.
"Haha." The person in charge smiled and touched the head of the baby auk. "It seems that we have failed, so we won't continue to show our shame."
This small European country has a good relationship with China, or most developing countries have a good relationship with China.
Since it had failed, the person in charge was cool enough to give up trying and walked off stage.
I also saw the living auk, and even touched its head. This wave of blood profit will last a lifetime when I return home!
"Oh, your krill and barrels..." Huo Yu quickly stopped him.
The person in charge waved his hand: "I gave it to you. When we joined the Ice Keepers, China helped our country a lot. Thank you very much."
"You're welcome, thank you too." The other party took the initiative to show his kindness, and Huo Yu naturally gave him enough face.
As for this bucket of krill...
If the little q doesn't eat it, then we can only try to breed it.
Or just give it to the small fish as snacks. If the dog doesn't eat it, you can only throw it away.
After all, Huo Yu doesn't want the little guys at his scientific research station to become bad breath kings...
A bad guy has appeared, and other scientific research teams in the audience have also become active.
In just one hour, seven teams came on stage to try to tame and take away the baby auks, but all failed.
The methods used by these teams are also very ordinary, they are nothing more than tempting with toys and food, trying to build relationships through this method.
There were also a few so-called 'masters of animal training' who took action and came on stage to do some manipulation, but Xiao Q didn't even pay attention to them.
After several consecutive failures, the highlight finally came.
The representative of the Neon Kingdom, a bald middle-aged man, stepped forward, bowed slightly to Huo Yu, and said in jabbering Japanese: "Please let us try it."
Huo Yu smiled: "Huaguo Scientific Research Station, please use the official language of the icekeepers, Chinese or English."
It's not that Huo Yu is deliberately making things difficult, he really doesn't know Japanese.
The only few Japanese words I have learned are from movies, and I can only use them when I am emotional.
The bald representative’s expression froze, but he still said it again in English.
Huo Yu sneered secretly, as expected the other party knew English.
The reason why I use Japanese is to find a sense of presence at this moment.
The bald representative proudly pushed out a machine from behind: "This is the latest animal sonic attractor invented by Chinese scientists. It uses sound waves..."
The bald representative was still talking eloquently about how high-tech his machine was, while the faces of Huo Yu and Xie Jie on the stage had become solemn.
Even Li, who had been taking a nap in the audience, opened his eyes at this moment and looked at the representative of Neon Country with deep eyes.
Why does this machine look so much like the thing used to control dinosaurs on Dinosaur Island?
