Chapter 199: Blind Date Meets Ugly Tiger

Lin Ting took the three kittens into the car one after another. The zoo was a bit far from here, and it was about to be the peak time for the whole city to get off work and school, so there was bound to be a traffic jam on the road.

The driver drove the car very fast and got on the overpass before the traffic jam. It was much better when they reached the suburbs. Except for the traffic lights, there was almost no delay. An hour later, Lin Ting finally arrived at the zoo.

The Forest Zoo is the largest zoo in Jiangcheng City. There are many large animals in it. Even the bravest kitten will inevitably be afraid and stressed when seeing large animals like tigers, lions and leopards, especially when there is a little female cat in the middle. Lin Ting put down the last two cans, left the kitten in the car, and took Xie Xiaoxiao into the zoo.

Lin Ting had been here many times, and the security guards and staff knew her. When they saw her coming, they let her in.

Lin Ting, familiar with the place, scanned a mobility scooter from the door and said, "Xiaoxiao, get in the car. The Tiger Park is too far from here. If we walk there, it will probably take an hour."

It's not that she's deliberately exaggerating.

Although Jiangcheng Forest Zoo is not the zoo with the most categories, it is the zoo with the largest area. If visitors want to walk through the entire zoo, it will take at least one day, including stopping to interact with the animals. Even without interaction, it will take five or six hours.

Some people have joked before that the tickets to Jiangcheng Zoo are the most worthwhile because you will be busy all day long.

After Xie Xiaoxiao got in the car, Lin Ting started the car and drove towards the Tiger Garden.

Ten minutes later, the two arrived at the Tiger Park.

The Tiger Garden is the largest park in the entire zoo and the only one integrated with a mountain. The mountains in other parks may be artificial hills built for landscaping and animal play, but the mountain in the Tiger Garden is indeed a real mountain. Because it is close to the mountain behind, it was originally planned to be avoided when it was built. It was Lin Jing who proposed to enclose the hill as a tiger garden, which could also provide the tigers with a larger range of activities.

After being put in the pen, the tiger did feel comfortable living there.

Xie Xiaoxiao followed Lin Ting into the tiger park.

The staff of the Tiger Park had been waiting outside for a long time.

Seeing Lin Ting coming over, the keeper took the initiative to greet Lin Ting, "Hello, Miss Lin, I'm Doubao's keeper. You can just call me Xiao Wu. The director asked me to wait for you here."

No need to ask, since Lin Jing didn't come, he must have been busy again.

"Just take me to see Doubao. My brother mentioned it before I came here. What's the situation with Doubao?" Lin Ting followed Xiao Wu and asked patiently.

"A week ago, Doubao started to be very unhappy. He even stopped eating his favorite chicken. Later, he became very irritable and even beat up the male tigers he was with. This happened more than once. I realized something was wrong and told the director. He immediately had a veterinarian check Doubao's body. The results were normal, but Doubao's mood was off. The veterinarian suspected he was suffering from depression and told us to keep an eye on him."

"Doubao has been getting increasingly irritable these past two days. I'm really worried, so I asked the zoo director to invite Miss Lin over to check on her. I've heard from other zoo staff that Miss Lin can communicate with animals, so I wanted to have Miss Lin talk to Doubao to see why she's so irritable."

"If Doubao hadn't just reached adulthood, I might have suspected he was in menopause. After all, he used to be very well-behaved and never took the initiative to attack a tiger in a pack."

As they were talking, the three of them came to the small separate area where Doubao lived.

This area was originally reserved for problematic tigers to live alone. Ever since Doubao started breeding, he was brought here alone.

The entire area is made of tempered glass, which allows you to observe the tiger's situation from outside while preventing the tiger's momentum from directly shattering ordinary glass.

Doubao was originally sleeping on the ground. Another tiger came up stealthily and was about to get close to Doubao. Doubao immediately opened his eyes alertly.

A pair of dangerous animal eyes stared at the male tiger in front of him, and then without any warning, he raised his claws and slapped the male tiger's head. His body quickly flipped up from the ground, and his sharp teeth were exposed with a roar.

The male tiger was frightened and took a step back, but then took another tentative step forward.

After taking that tentative step, Doubao immediately launched an attack, knocking the male tiger to the ground and biting its neck with its teeth.

roar

"You old, ugly, disgusting thing, stay away from the tiger. What the hell is trying to touch the tiger?"

"If you dare touch the tiger, it will bite you to death immediately."

"Human eyes are not good, just donate them. Staring at the tiger with a pair of big copper bells, you found such an ugly thing, even uglier than the lion next door."

"This old man could be my grandfather, and he still wants to fight a tiger."

"Not only is he ugly, but he also has a foul smell. Are you trying to stifle the tiger?"

Doubao had no intention of letting go of the male tiger, and even pressed down on him with greater force.

The breeder saw this and shouted in panic, "Doubao, don't bully me."

"I borrowed this from another zoo. If you damage it, I'll have to pay you back. Just let me go."

The keeper picked up something nearby and knocked on the tempered glass, trying to attract Doubao's attention with the knocking sound.

"You blame the tiger for bringing up such an ugly thing."

Although Doubao cursed, he still let the male tiger go after the keeper's warning.

Before leaving, Doubao roared at the male tiger.

"Stay away from the tiger, or it will hit you every time it sees you."

"The ugly thing still dares to enter the tiger's body."

Doubao elegantly came to the rockery and lay down.

Real mountains only exist among the tigers, and this separately designated area has always used artificial mountains.

The keeper sighed helplessly and looked at Lin Ting, "Miss Lin, Doubao has been like this for the past few days. The male tiger didn't do anything, but Doubao rushed up and beat her up."

"I'm still in a bad mood, and I didn't eat the chicken I put in."

"Sister Lin Doubao is not really depressed, right? Something seems amiss." Xie Xiaoxiao said softly as she stood beside Lin Ting.

Lin Ting shook his head and refuted Xie Xiaoxiao's statement.

“No depression.”

"Did you find this male tiger, Xiao Wu, to breed with Doubao?" Lin Ting asked.

The zookeeper wasn't surprised by Lin Ting's question. She had just mentioned it before, "Yes, we don't have a male tiger of the right age in our zoo. I contacted several zoos before one was willing to loan us this male tiger."
