Tiger Dad and Baby Show is a Hit

The wolf pack, which consists of six or seven wolves, is not large in size, but it does not look like something that can be easily provoked.

"call--"

But in the surveillance video, the huge South China tiger exhaled and walked towards the wolf pack without hesitation.

This is an unreasonable way to deal with it.

In the past, if the adult tiger encountered unfamiliar animals, such as bears and leopards, it would adopt the attitude of not disturbing them. It would first take the cub away and avoid them, and then patiently teach the cub the appropriate response measures.

This was the first time it took the initiative to move closer, and it didn't even let the little tiger behind it hide.

Could it be that the tiger has a grudge against the wolf and is planning to attack the wolf?

No, it's not.

Since discovering the big tiger, the leader has been guarding behind the corresponding surveillance every day. He has taken more than ten pages of observation notes and can roughly distinguish the various subtle emotions of the big tiger.

It's not an aggressive expression.

Whether it's the black and white ears turned forward, the gently swaying striped tail, or even the slightly open mouth, they all express the closeness and affection of this big guy.

It is trying to get close to the wolf.

Under what circumstances would a forest overlord be so friendly to other races?

The leader was a little confused, but she quickly thought of a similar situation.

——Baby animals and humans at breeding facilities.

For a long time before, people were very doting on all kinds of cubs, and were even willing to feed them with their hands.

The cubs raised in this way, no matter what their nature is, will be very friendly to the people who raise them when they grow up and regard them as their own parents.

so……

Is it possible that a similar situation exists between tigers and wolves?

Due to limited information, she could not be sure that a mother wolf would raise children of other species, but she had seen with her own eyes in a breeding center that a mother wolf who had lost her cubs was originally depressed, but would cheer up slightly because of the sounds of the cubs that the staff accidentally played.

The series of characteristics that the tiger has recently displayed seem to be consistent with the characteristics of wolves, who like to live in groups and care for their cubs.

So, what if?

If this statement is true, Da Hu can be kept temporarily.

"We certainly found clues."

The leader took a deep breath. Although it was just a statement she came up with on the spur of the moment, her voice did not tremble at all. Instead, it sounded very firm.

She pointed at the surveillance footage and analyzed calmly:

"The picture shows us testing Da Hu."

"It's getting close to the wolves. Can you see that?"

"It's clear that it's inextricably linked to the wolves outside the forest."

Seeing that the newcomer was lost in thought, she took advantage of the situation and attacked:

"So, regarding the third point you pointed out, we have found a clue. The tiger's closeness to its own kind is obviously similar to that of a wolf pack."

"As long as we investigate its relationship with the wolf pack, its origins will surely become clear. Everything is progressing in an orderly manner."

"We have already recorded all of this, but we just haven't had time to upload it yet. I really don't understand why you are so anxious."

After saying that, the leader looked at the surveillance camera, praying in her heart that the tiger would not hit her in the face, and continued to maintain a close attitude with the wolf to support her statement.

fortunately--

In the picture, the big tiger has approached a female wolf. The comparison of the two sizes makes people worry for the female wolf.

But to everyone's surprise, the male tiger did not show any intention of attacking. Instead, he lay down on his own initiative, rubbed his head against the other wolf in an affectionate manner, and barked at the other wolves a few times.

As natural as if it were one of them.

Such a scene is indeed very special.

Therefore, this group of staff were indeed conducting an investigation, rather than abandoning their work and allowing wild tigers of unknown origin to interfere with the release training.

The uninvited guests who broke into the spaceship fell silent.

In light of this discovery, the institute's request needs to be reconsidered.

"...We will inform the research institute and look forward to your next discovery."

Since there was no legitimate reason, the uninvited guests could only leave with these words.

Click——

The hatch closed, and just as they had come in, they were leaving now.

Only now did the audience dare to breathe.

[I was so scared!! I really thought Tiger Dad was going to be taken away!!]

[Eh? Did Tiger Dad take the initiative to get close to the wolf pack? Suddenly I remembered many examples of wolf packs raising cubs of different species. They even raise human cubs! Those wolf cubs! So is Tiger Dad in a similar situation? ]

[It feels very likely! When I think about it, the tiger father’s various behaviors do have the characteristics of a wolf pack, including living in a group, helping each other, and even being friendly to cubs! ]

[I joked before that Tiger Dad is not as attentive as a cat, is that true? ? ]

"Wait a minute, something went wrong!"

Not long after everyone relaxed after watching these people leave, they heard someone wailing again.

"Think of a solution quickly, Da Hu seems to have discovered something wrong——!"

"roar?"

In the picture, the mother wolf simulated by the robot obviously didn't know how to face the enthusiastic big cat, and could only stand there.

Such a reaction obviously aroused the male tiger's suspicion. It stopped its intimate behavior and sniffed around the female wolf with some confusion.

But the robot had only learned some fixed movements and it was impossible for it to perform them on the spot, so it had no idea how to calm the big cat.

Urgent! Urgent! Urgent!

Everyone was busy making arrangements:

"Let the robot run away first! Don't let Da Hu get suspicious!"

"We'll try it out in a different scenario later. Let's go now!"

After inputting various commands remotely, they finally manipulated the small robot to act out the scene of the wolves running away. But the next second, they looked at the male tiger who was standing there in a daze with a rare look of confusion on his face, and they all felt guilty instantly.

This is the first time I’ve seen Tiger Dad’s expression like this!

It's over. If it really has a close relationship with the wolves, then wouldn't their action of asking the wolves to evacuate hurt it? !

It's really a dilemma.

But luckily, there was a little tiger following the big tiger to distract him.

"Ah? Woo——"

After being comforted by the little tiger's worried rubs, the big tiger withdrew his gaze from the direction where the wolves disappeared and led the little tiger away.

The people behind the scenes breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked all the robots to hide. Then, they held a meeting in advance to discuss the next activities.

Although I don't know why the research institute suddenly took action, it is true that they should start investigating the matter of Da Hu.

Saving Da Hu just now means that they must investigate and come to an end, otherwise their professionalism may be questioned.

"So... next, we need to shift our focus and focus on exploring Da Hu's life experience."

The leader crossed his hands and looked at everyone sitting in a circle, saying this seriously.

The reception was good.

Anyway, they had long since run out of training techniques beyond the information, and had been following Da Hu's training. Now that this unexpected event had occurred, they might as well concentrate on interpreting Tiger Dad's life experience and keep it.

Speaking of which, the idea of ​​bringing in the wolves was just a sudden impulse, in order to train the tigers, but I didn't expect that the identity of the tiger father could be revealed by such a coincidence...

"So the big tiger is related to the wolf pack?"

"Yes, and speaking of wolves, a lot of the tiger's behavior can be explained, including its semi-social nature of accepting multiple companions and its care for strange cubs."

"So, it lived among wolves? Maybe it was even raised by wolves?"

"Isn't this guess a bit bold...?"

"No, no matter how tolerant a wolf pack is, it is impossible for them to accept an adult or a sub-adult, so it is possible that the tiger was taken in when he was a cub."

When this guess came out, everyone paused.

So, is it possible that Da Hu was born naturally on the planet?

"Oh?"

Tiger Dad had been feeling a little down since he witnessed the wolves abandoning him. Seeing this, Chenchen raised his head and licked the other's chin worriedly.

Tiger Dad came back to his senses and lowered his head in confusion, but his expression was still a little melancholy.

Woo——

What's wrong?

The cub has keen perception, and it is the first time that it has felt such emotions from its omnipotent parent, which made it a little uneasy for a moment.

The little tiger anxiously circled around his father, and couldn't help it anymore, so he whimpered and asked about the situation.

Could it be that Tiger Dad couldn’t beat those guys just now?

Although there are many of them, there are also many tigers. Let's attack them together. There is no need to be afraid!

Although not a single word was correct, Tiger Dad was indeed slightly comforted.

It looked at the tiger cubs around it, whose eyes were full of concern, and thought of the other tigers in the forest, and its mood gradually calmed down.

Yes, don’t force it.

It now has its own tribe.

Dahu licked Chenchen, regained his previous calm, and patiently imparted his experience.

When you see animals gathered like this, you don't have to attack them actively. Although their individual strength is average, they are animals that know how to cooperate.

“Ah…”

Although Chenchen had begun to hate those guys who made Tiger Dad unhappy, after hearing what their parents said, they still obeyed obediently, and only thought about settling the score with those gray guys when they grew up.

With the little tiger's playfulness, the tiger father seemed to be in a much better mood.

late at night.

While hunting, Tiger Dad was led to the edge by a special prey.

This prey had a very special smell, which made it feel excited and fond of it. It couldn't help but give up its original prey and follow it.

Before he knew it, Tiger Dad had crossed the transparent barrier and came outside.

"Good! Now we need to lead the tiger to the wolves!"

Almost at the same time, the staff behind the scenes reopened the barrier to prevent large animals from outside from entering the wild forest.

Although their reasoning during the day sounded reasonable, it still lacked some decisive information.

So, they decided to let Tiger Dad meet the real wolf pack to confirm their guess.

The robot guiding the wolf pack is also working hard, and the two sides will probably meet in a few minutes.

The staff who were busy recording and sorting out the pictures did not notice the subtle movements of the tiger in the picture.

After breaking through the barrier, the tiger's body stiffened slightly for a moment, and its pupils dilated slightly.

It turned its head and seemed to hesitate for a moment before continuing to chase its prey.

“Ouch—”

Hearing the familiar howling sound, the tiger's pace of chasing prey gradually slowed down.

Soon, it saw the wolves again.

Compared to the coldness and aloofness during the day, the wolves now seemed much more enthusiastic.

“Ah?!”

“Woo——”

"Woo woo~"

The wolves that were originally busy hunting prey stopped in their tracks when they unexpectedly saw their long-lost family members.

The tiger and the wolves stared at each other from a distance. The next second, a few wolves approached tentatively, wagging their tails.

Seeing that the tiger in front of them showed no resistance and even lowered its body on its own initiative, they immediately relaxed and happily came up to the tiger to lick and bite it.

The female wolf, to whom Da Hu had taken the initiative to snuggle up to him during the day, also slowly walked over, licked Da Hu's face gently, and made intimate and caring sounds.

“Huluhulu…”

Da Hu still looked dignified and calm, but his throat was actually beating.

These familiar and intimate actions are enough to explain everything.

Narrator:

“He doesn’t actually know who he is.”

"He is an orphan and was adopted."

"The teachings of his family made him realize that only a united and collaborative group can go further."

"That's why he was so friendly to all the members in the show, and even formed an alliance with everyone to face challenges together in the later stages."

Sure enough, it was just as they guessed.

Tiger Dad was adopted by a wolf pack and was influenced by them, so he is so friendly to the tigers participating in the wild training.

[It's actually true... But this seems to be the only explanation. Otherwise, ordinary tigers would definitely not be as tolerant as Tiger Dad. ]

[Wow, this scene is really rare. By the way, Tiger Dad is so old, but he still thinks he is a member of the wolf pack? ]

[It's understandable. I've seen tigers and bears rescued from a circus who were as close as brothers. The environment in which they grow up in childhood has a great influence.]

[No wonder the tiger father is so good at raising children, it turns out that he helped the wolf couple raise their children before (bushi)]

“Ahhh!”

In the picture, wolves are surrounding a tiger that is several times larger than itself, howling and howling, and it is unknown what information they are communicating.

After howling a few times, the two wolves bumped their heads comically. I don't know if they were performing for fun or just accidentally bumped into each other.

"……roar."

The big tiger responded intermittently. Although he looked calm, the wagging tip of his tail showed his inner restlessness and anxiety at the moment.

But no one noticed this tiny detail. At this moment, they were only focused on analyzing Da Hu's life experience.

This group of werewolves has a record.

The wolf couple in the lead are the offspring of two groups of wolves that were successfully released a long time ago.

In other words, they have stayed in this place long enough to prove the origin of the big tiger and that it is not some man-made creature that suddenly appeared as conspiracy theorists say.

Then the next question comes again.

Since Tiger Dad didn't appear out of thin air, how did he appear?

[I announce that the Baby Show has officially been changed to a search for relatives column! ]

[Ah? It really became Where's Dad? ? ]

[If it is not man-made, then it is born from nature. 】

[After careful analysis, with the tiger father's physique, an ordinary tiger could not give birth to it... and the previous matching results with the existing South China tigers only showed that they were related, so what is going on? ]

[If the existing one is not, then it must be dead! ]

The people in Small World think in the same way as the audience.

However, they did not simply infer, but relied on clues from the wolves, compared their tracks and whereabouts, and then matched the most likely tigers in the corresponding period for confirmation.

The result was unexpected.

It turns out that Tiger Dad’s biological parents are actually a generation of tigers who have already died.

As individuals with high hopes, they were once released into this forest, but they died collectively because they could not adapt to the wild environment.

This caused great sadness to the researchers who had worked so hard to revive them, so they focused more on quantity rather than wildness of the second generation of tigers and spoiled them very much.

Unexpectedly, in that short period of time, someone in that generation accidentally left behind a spark.

"It's Niya's child..."

Looking at the test report that was expedited overnight, everyone felt a little sad for a moment.

The first generation of tigers was restored by them using the most active samples in the gene bank, and each test tube could only be tried once.

Because each individual is very precious, they do not force the tigresses of a generation to become pregnant, and they may even artificially intervene in the process and only cultivate them in vitro to avoid physical damage to the tigresses during childbirth.

But now it seems that Niya naturally conceived and gave birth to a miracle child during the time she was released.

During that period, people did not have enough knowledge about special species like the South China tiger. People thought that just like other animals, they just needed to be bred and released into an artificial environment where there was no temporary survival crisis. They neglected monitoring and observation, and so several first-generation tigers passed away.

At that time, they were already in great pain just knowing the news of Niya's death. Coupled with the outside public opinion, it was even more impossible for them to conduct a detailed examination and dissection of Niya's body. As a result, they were negligent again.

At this point, Da Hu's life experience has become clear.

It is a wild South China tiger that was born naturally from the first generation of tiger Niya and raised by a pack of wolves on the mirror planet.

Logically speaking, wolves should not show kindness to tigers, but after all, the wolf pack on the mirror planet was also recreated by humans, and perhaps the fear was not deeply rooted in their instincts, so when faced with the cubs of a strange race, the mother wolf who had just lost her cubs chose to accept them.

Watching the record of the big tiger's reunion with the wolf pack, the big tiger is like a "lone wolf" who has left the wolf pack to explore the world, and the tigers within the barrier are the new collective it has united.

Everything can be explained.

The only thing that remains in doubt now is Da Hu's genes.

However, even now, the genetic level is still a forbidden zone for humans, so people can only think that this may be a miracle of nature, which has resulted in the fact that the genes of the tiger have not declined today.

Once this conjecture was announced, it immediately caused an uproar.

Such a dramatic and coincidental development, coupled with the fact that the topic was centered on the rare tiger that had been struggling to reproduce on the mirror planet, naturally made everyone talk about it hotly.

Some people reminisced about the generation of tigers in the past, some lamented the wolf pack's act of taking them in, and some couldn't let go of the photos of the released tigers.

People reached a consensus: Indeed, compared to the skinny artificial South China tigers in breeding facilities, this wild big tiger is more worthy of the title of king of the forest.

In this discussion, there are naturally voices calling for:

"In that case, we must bring this wild tiger back immediately!"

"This is the most energetic natural offspring of the South China tiger generation. We must preserve such high-quality genes! Use its genes to speed up the breeding of the third generation of tigers!"

"We need to let all the people in the galaxy appreciate this tiger!"

The people in charge of releasing the young animals from the breeding center had a heated debate:

"The tiger has gained this strength because it survived alone on the mirror planet. Aren't we releasing them to allow them to return to nature? Why would we capture an individual that has the ability to return to nature?"

"We have already collected the genes, and there will be no problem with in vitro manipulation later. There are also second-generation tigers that are naturally bred and have poor wildness. The key to reversion is the environment in which they grew up. Why is it necessary to bring it back?"

"We should take protective and observation measures. If these wild tigers can learn even 70% of what the big tigers do, they will probably be able to settle down on the mirror planet."

This statement was quite reasonable, and the speech that was originally intended to bring Da Hu back was instantly suppressed.

Strike while the iron is hot, they apply for a longer barrier.

Before, they were still worried about what to do with the big tiger and the tigers that were about to leave after half a year, but now that the big tiger's identity is no longer a problem, it would definitely be okay for the trained tigers to stay for a while longer.

At this moment, they even had a subtle intuition - if they were willing to let the tigers spend more time together, they might be able to achieve the goal of training and releasing them.

Narration Probe:

"As public opinion gradually fermented and deepened, his true identity was revealed, which shocked everyone."

"He is not an ordinary person, but a rare bloodline left out by a wealthy family!"

"In fact, among all the guests present, none of them has a higher status than this one."

"He was already well-known among netizens for his special ability to raise cubs, and now he has become completely popular."

【The literature that shocked everyone is late but arrived! 】

[Wealthy family? ? Hiss… Yeah, after all, he is the only child of his generation (? )]

[Hmm? Did it become popular because of the exposure of the identity? I thought it would become popular after the tiger father appeared. 】

[At that time, the identity was unclear and the authorities did not dare to publicize it. The news was only circulated internally. Now that the identity and origin have been confirmed, it can be publicized. It is indeed a tiger with a very interesting story.]

[I said that amateurs must have a hidden background! Everything should be fine from now on, right? You can continue watching Raising Cubs. ]

With everyone's efforts, the institute's request to take Dahu away was completely rejected.

Other breeding centers sent requests hoping to share information and records about the big tigers for use in their training programs, and everyone generously agreed.

Although Da Hu was raised by wolves, he is quite good at raising cubs, and to be fair, he is still very suitable for other tigers.

The best ones are definitely those raised by the tiger father himself, but unfortunately the tigers in other breeding centers do not have this opportunity.

"It's been a busy night..."

Everyone was busy that night.

Organize information, keep archives, publicize the truth, hold group meetings...

It was not until noon the next day that some people finally recovered and returned to the spacecraft to continue their original work.

This one look made him realize something was wrong.

In the picture, Da Hu was hesitantly wandering outside the barrier but did not go in.

I can't come up with a plot when I think about the original work being a kids show. That's great, I've eliminated a topic that I'm totally not good at (bushi)

If there is no more inspiration, the world of Tiger Dad may be shorter...
