Chapter 402 The big beautiful eagle is about to take the bait!
Hearing Zhao Xinqing's worries, Su Bai couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Previously, he didn't even think about the camp, nor did he worry about the snow leopard's condition.
Zhao Xinqing explained:
"In the final stage of the snow leopard's lactation period, as the litter of leopard cubs gradually grows, their demand for milk will become greater and greater."
"So, before the cubs are actually weaned, the snow leopard's food intake increases day by day in order to secrete enough milk to feed the cubs."
"Although there are many fish in the fish pond, they are only enough for the snow leopards to consume during our long journey."
"If we continue to stay, the snow leopards will most likely face a situation where there is not enough food in the last few days, and the entire nest of cubs will go hungry."
"In nature, if a snow leopard mother cannot raise her children, she may even kill some of her cubs herself to save the strongest ones."
"We have been feeding for so long and have paid so much. If we fall short because we return a few days late and the mother snow leopard abandons a few cubs, then I will be really angry to death."
Zhao Xinqing really devoted a huge amount of time, energy and emotion to the litter of snow leopard cubs she had never met before.
She was able to complete four doctoral degrees at the age of twenty, and she also has a stubbornness in her character that refuses to admit defeat.
It is simply unacceptable for this situation to happen.
Hearing Zhao Xinqing's words, Su Bai nodded slowly and said:
"What you said makes sense."
"Then you can try it tomorrow."
"But... although the snow leopard family is important, cats and eagles are equally important."
"Never lose sight of one thing."
"Even if the snow leopard really eats all the fish in the fish pond, it still has the ability to hunt independently."
"Right now, the most important thing is to properly resolve Cat and Eagle first."
…
The next day, Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing woke up one after another at around four o'clock.
The two Fusang girls didn't seem to have slept much and woke up earlier than the other two.
Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing were wrapped in coyote skins and jaguar skins under the ceiling and kept warm for more than ten minutes before getting up.
Su Bai boiled a pot of water in a clay pot, stewed the lean pork belly cut yesterday, and then went to dispose of the remaining wild boar carcass.
According to Zhao Xinqing's instructions, the lean part of the wild boar is destined to be eaten uneaten, and it is not delicious, so it will be wasted.
But the fat part should be retained as much as possible.
Su Bai's first task was to remove all the remaining fat from the wild boar.
This is a very tedious task that requires Su Bai to spend a lot of time and energy to complete.
Zhao Xinqing did not help Su Bai from the side, but took the remaining pork liver and walked to the tree of Cat and Eagle.
Zhao Xinqing pursed her lips and made a simulated owl cry of "coo coo coo".
The heads of the cat and the eagle poked out from the bird's nest and looked down together.
This newlywed owl couple got eels and red-scaled fish from Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing yesterday during the day, and also got a large piece of pig liver at night. It can be said that they didn't stop talking all day long.
So last night, the two owls stopped hunting and stayed in their nests to rest all night.
The barrage couldn't help but joked:
[Looking at the way the two of them are singing in harmony, are they going to lay eggs tomorrow? 】
[Su Bai and Dr. Zhao, maybe not only will they have to wait for the two owls to develop a relationship, but they will also have to wait for the two owls to hatch their eggs...]
[Don’t end up taking a brood of little snow leopards with you instead of a brood of little owls...Hahahahaha...I just want to laugh when I think of that scene.]
Zhao Xinqing glanced at the barrage, shook her head and said with a smile:
"No."
"They don't lay eggs so quickly."
"Even if they mated last night, it will take a while before the eggs fall into the nest."
"not to mention……"
"I didn't hear the sound of them mating last night."
Barrage:
【???】
[No, do owls make sounds when mating? 】
[Could it be said ... the owl is also "ah ah ah", "Don't be there,", "You press it to my hair", "Hat it!"
[Wow... Dr. Zhao, your voyeurism is a bit serious...]
Looking at these shameless barrages, Zhao Xinqing couldn't help but laugh and shook her head:
"What?"
"Why don't you have any integrity at all?"
"Before owls mate, they make a special owl cry."
"It's not what you said!"
While talking to Danmu, the cat in the bird's nest heard Zhao Xinqing's call and saw her standing under his tree. He quickly spread his wings and flew onto Zhao Xinqing's shoulder.
Zhao Xinqing pinched a piece of the pork liver that had been cut long ago and fed it to the cat.
While the cat raised its head to devour the delicious pork liver, Zhao Xinqing once again called out to the bird's nest in the tree, "Cuckoo".
Yingying looked down at Zhao Xinqing, his eyes moved, but he did not fly down.
Zhao Xinqing carefully observed the eagle's reaction, stretched out an arm, and called the eagle in the nest again "coo-coo".
Yingying looked at Zhao Xinqing's outstretched arm and hesitated for a while.
She could understand Zhao Xinqing's call, and she could also feel the kindness that the two-legged beast exuded in the past few days.
It can be seen more clearly that the relationship between cats and these two two-legged beasts is very close.
Therefore, Yingying felt that these two two-legged beasts should not pose any threat to him.
Yingying understood it only on one side, but the vigilance and alertness deep in his genes made Yingying still unwilling to get too close to Zhao Xinqing for a while.
Yingying watched for a while, when Zhao Xinqing called out "coo coo coo" for the fifth time.
The eagle flapped its wings and flew down from the bird's nest.
But he didn't stand on Zhao Xinqing's raised arm.
Instead, he fell to the ground and looked up at Zhao Xinqing half a meter away.
Zhao Xinqing smiled, knowing that the trust between the two parties was not that sufficient yet, but Yingying at least no longer rejected her, and regarded herself as a friendly existence.
Zhao Xinqing squatted down, picked up a piece of fresh pork liver, and shook it at Yingying from a distance.
Maomao stood on Zhao Xinqing's shoulder, looking at Yingying as well, making a series of tiny "cooing" sounds in his throat, not knowing what he was communicating.
Yingying looked at the pork liver in Zhao Xinqing's hand, hesitated for a while, and tentatively approached Zhao Xinqing.
Barrage:
【Coming, coming!!!】
[The American Eagle is about to take the bait!]
[Hey hey hey hey hey hey... there is no beast that Dr. Zhao has taken a liking to that he cannot get his hands on! 】
[Eagle eagle, eagle eagle, just obey! (laughing lewdly, rubbing hands)]
[Damn it, Dr. Zhao really got it right, her friendship with Yingying is really good enough...]
[Once the bottleneck of close-range feeding is broken through, with Dr. Zhao’s methods, I’m afraid he will soon be able to play with eagles...]
