Chapter 125 Qinling Giant Pandas (XI)
"Eeyee~"
Yu Yiyun strode forward, climbed to the river bank using all four claws, and waved his bear paws at the leopard behind him.
If he could bend his fingers, he could 100% replicate that classic emoticon.
[Come here.jpg]
"Mmm...?"
Leopard was already confused by this strange panda. His small brain couldn't figure out why he had been planning to attack the black and white dumpling ten minutes ago.
I don’t know what happened in the middle, and now I am inexplicably being led by the black and white ball.
Looking across the Qinling Mountains, are there any carnivores being bossed around by herbivores?
If other cats see this, they will definitely laugh at the leopard.
But Sesame Rice Balls was too confident, leaving Leopard no chance to fight back, and he even began to think about philosophy.
——Where do I come from and where am I going?
"Eeyee!" Right there!
Before the beautiful leopard could comprehend the true meaning of philosophy, Sesame Dumpling came to the river bank, pointing its paws at the opposite bank, probably in the direction of Kang Kang's territory.
"Yiyiyi!" Let me tell you, there is a leopard on the other side of the river. He likes to sleep in my ex-mother's territory.
"Yiyi~" I have observed it for a long time. It doesn't have a girlfriend, so it is just right to be your boyfriend.
Sesame Tangyuan waved his little claws and approved the marriage without either party knowing.
The trend of arranged marriages eventually reached the Qinling Mountains.
Almost all the nature reserves on the Qinling Mountains were built in this century.
Previously, humans had been clearing mountains and cutting down trees on a large scale, destroying not only the giant panda’s habitat, but also the Qinling branch of the golden leopard.
At present, there are fewer wild leopards in Qinling Mountains than giant pandas, and it is difficult to get a pair together.
During the breeding season, the mountain leopards have to travel through mountains and rivers to meet the leopard of their dreams.
A network has been set up between the South China Tiger Experimental Zone and the Giant Panda Reserve. If Leopard cannot find that small gap, it and Brother Leopard will never meet.
Yu Yiyun, who is forever young and always loves matchmaking, secretly made up her mind:
I will build a magpie bridge between you!
I am willing to be Leopard’s love bodyguard!
Zhima Tangyuan chose the couple he wanted and spared no effort to recommend them to Brother Leopard.
"Yiyi!" Brother Leopard is doing very well in Tiger's territory. Do I need to say more about his strength?
"Yiyi~" If the date between you two is successful, remember to give me a rub when the little leopard is born~
Sesame Tangyuan excitedly babbled to Leopard and even made an appointment to be the godfather of the little leopard cub.
Leopard's ears were filled with noisy sounds, and his head was buzzing with annoyance, as if there were 500 sparrows buzzing around him while he was sleeping.
"Meow!"
Leopard was very angry and roared loudly.
He shook his long tail and turned around, moving away from the talkative black and white ball.
[I can't afford to offend you, goodbye.gif]
"Eeyore?" Where are you going?
Yu Yiyun was obsessed with "rua little leopard" and chased after Leopard, shouting.
"Eeyee?" Don't you know the way? I understand. Cats have a poor sense of direction.
Cats: Shut up, pig!
"Yiyi!" I'm busy recently. After I raise the cub, I will personally take you to the other side to find Brother Leopard~
"Yiyiyi!" It's a date~
Zhima Tangyuan made a unilateral promise, completely disregarding whether the other party agreed or not, and walked back home with his head held high and his feet turned inwards.
In the afternoon, the warm sunshine of late spring shines on the earth.
The little bear couldn't stay in the tree hole, so he climbed out with a grunt, spread out his four paws, and lazily lay on the exposed tree roots to bask in the sun, with his short tail swaying from side to side.
When Yu Yiyun returned home, the baby was sleeping soundly. With each breathing, bubbles of saliva appeared at the corners of his mouth, sometimes big and sometimes small, reflecting colorful waves in the sunlight.
“Hoo—Hoo—”
In his sleep, he was snoring loudly.
The sesame dumplings were instantly so cute that they ate five meat and three vegetables, holding their chests and sighing:
Whose little bear is so cute?
I raised it.
The little bear was sleeping soundly and didn't realize that the man who raised him had come home.
He turned over in a daze, and the saliva bubble at the corner of his mouth was suddenly popped.
The frightened little bear immediately opened his watery eyes.
Look carefully at the round face of Sesame Dumpling and roll towards him happily.
He hummed and threw himself into the little bear's arms, clinging to his mother and asking for kisses, hugs and lifting him up.
"Yiyi~" Baby, you seem to have gained weight again~
Yu Yiyun picked up the little bear, rolled around, and updated her little bear observation diary.
'Weather: Sunny.'
'My baby falls asleep as soon as he is full, snores in his dreams, and is so fat that I can't even find his waist...'
Ever since Little Man Mi started airdropping sheep stomach milk bottles, Little Bear has been able to have two full meals a day.
The greedy big black bear is still seduced by the bamboo tube meat every day, and then taken advantage of by the sesame rice balls for free.
After feeding for more than a month, the black bear's maternal nature was brought out.
Sometimes when I see the black and white balls, I often fall into deep thought, wondering if the little bear is my own child...
The more the black bear thought about it, the more it felt it was possible. Perhaps he had been so sleepy during hibernation that he forgot about giving birth to a cub with a coat that was not of pure color.
That's why Zhima Tangyuan held the 'prince' and brought him to her side to drink milk and recognize him as her relative.
Watch the little bear absorb its milk and grow healthily day by day.
The mother black bear stared into his eyes, even with a bit of care in her eyes, as if she was pleased that "my cub has grown up".
The little black bear, who is about to turn six months old and is in the cognitive stage, did not waver in his will from beginning to end.
She firmly believed that Little Bear was her younger brother!
It was born by mom and polar bear!
Polar Bear: I @#¥%&……
Please God, distinguish between loyalty and treachery!
The little bear eats and sleeps carefreely all day long, and grows at an amazing speed.
When the little panda was just two months old, the 'gold medal nanny', with her older brothers and sisters who had already learned to walk and jump, came to Qiqi's territory to visit her godson, and she almost didn't recognize him.
My godson is still a national first-class protected little piece of trash.
It is already two months old, and can only roll around and wriggle everywhere. It has no survival ability at all, but its size is almost larger than that of an adult red panda.
You know, the red pandas of the same age as him can already jump up and down skillfully, making their mothers both worry-free and worried.
"Squeak~" The slightly older red panda cub skillfully jumped up to the little bear and rolled around on him affectionately.
"Wow!" The slightly smaller cub also ran over, jumped to the other side, and pulled the round ears on the little bear's head.
“Squeak!”
Bear ears, bite...
Before the two naughty kittens could grab the little bear's ears and bite them, Sesame Dumpling immediately stretched out its claws to stop them.
joke!
Although the two-month-old red panda has not been weaned, its teeth have already grown.
The cute animal cubs will practice hunting through play. Even I, who have thick skin and flesh, will feel pain, not to mention the tender little bears.
The naughty kitten was not depressed after being punished by his brother, but became more and more courageous, climbing up along the claws of the sesame dumplings that intercepted them.
The two of them regarded the sesame dumplings as a perfect prop to practice tree climbing. They scrambled to climb onto the little bear's shoulders and then lay on his head at the same time.
Just like when we were kids, I pulled his ears, one on the left and one on the right, turning them into two big ponytails, and then I held his ears and started nibbling on them.
"Eeyee."
You can nibble it, but don't lick your saliva onto my ears.
Obviously, the younger brother and sister who were obsessed with 'hunting' didn't understand and sucked the bear's ears until they were wet.
Yu Yiyun sighed resignedly, slowly stood up, and traveled around the world with the two cubs in tow.
After walking around, he felt something under his feet.
I looked down and found that the little bear rolled over. He raised his head with great effort and looked eagerly at the ears of Sesame Dumpling... with his eyes shining.
Yu Yijun looked at him speechlessly and shook her ears.
"Hey~Hey!" Bite~the bear's ears!
The little bear cried out excitedly and set the greatest goal of his life in a minute!
"Squeak~" Biting ears is fun!
"Wow!" When you grow up, we will bite together!
When Zhima Tangyuan heard the three cubs chattering excitedly, he silently observed ten seconds of silence for his ears.
Driven by the great goal of "biting the bear's ears", the little bear, who was just two months old, grew up at a rocket speed, so fast that Yu Yiyun had no time to update her "Little Bear Observation Diary".
At about two and a half months old, the little bear had learned to crawl.
Unlike before, it did not wriggle on the ground with its round body.
Instead, it crawls on relatively flat ground with the help of its short limbs.
Although we climbed very slowly, we would get very anxious when we encountered a slightly raised hill.
Mastering the crawling technique means that the little bear’s limbs have the supporting strength and he will soon be able to stand up on his own.
The little bear who has learned to crawl can explore further.
Including the claws of the sesame glutinous rice balls, the belly of the sesame glutinous rice balls, and the tail of the sesame glutinous rice balls.
The ears are what attract Little Bear the most. However, due to the high altitude, Little Bear cannot unlock them for the time being.
"Eehee..." Don't bite my paws.
"Eeyee?" Don't you have claws yourself?
"Eeyore!" You can't even pull my tail out! You're almost pulling it bald!
The sesame dumplings, which were used as an exploration base by the little bear, let out weak howls, but unfortunately to little avail.
What made Yu Yiyun most fortunate was that he was not the only bear victim.
Compared to 'conquering' the huge sesame rice balls, Little Bear has two more targets to conquer.
There are many wild fruit trees in the Qinling Mountains and forests. Every late spring and early summer, a variety of wild fruits are inexhaustible.
Red pandas love to eat fruit, and often take their babies to pick fruit, then climb up the mountain to feed the older babies.
The fruits it brought included wild grapes, goat's milk, acacia fruit... and many other fruits that Yu Yiyun couldn't even name, but they were all delicious anyway.
Whenever the red panda comes to bring fruit, the little bear always looks particularly excited.
Red panda cubs are weaned relatively early, and begin to transition from breast milk to solid food when they are only four or five months old.
The little bear, whose lactation period is particularly long, is unable to get milk from the panda nurse.
Even so, he still likes to be close to the red panda mother.
"Hey~"
The little bear followed Yu Yiyun's example and held the red panda in his arms.
The red panda, treated as a toy pillow, feels the unbearable weight of life.
When it was first sent to me, it was just a tiny thing, and no one told me that when it grew up, it would sit on me and wash me!
[Red panda is tired.jpg]
In addition to the red panda, Ziwei, who discovered the little bear with Sesame Rice Balls, is also loved by the cubs.
Compared to Sesame Rice Balls, the female Ziwei is smaller in size and will actively lower her head to let the little bear play with her ears.
The little bear couldn’t play with Yu Yiyun’s ears, so he could only use Ziwei’s ears as a substitute and he had a lot of fun playing with them.
A few days after learning to crawl, on a dark and windy night, Yu Yiyun was sleeping soundly in a tree hole when he suddenly felt something sticking to him.
Zhima Tangyuan slept soundly, but his rich experience in the wild kept him alert.
There are very few animals that can attack Yu Yiyun at close range without alarming her.
Yu Yiyun was startled, and opened her eyes calmly, and saw -
The little bear, who had just filled his stomach, had milk stains on the corners of his mouth and was half asleep, propped up his body with four legs and stood up shakily.
It was the first time the bear tried to stand up, and its four legs moved separately, with its front legs almost tripping over its hind legs.
After walking a few steps, the little bear leaped forward and fell gorgeously on Yu Yiyun.
Zhima Tangyuan was suddenly awakened, and for a moment he didn't know whether to praise "the baby has started to walk" or complain "he is sleepwalking at such a young age".
In the next few days, Yu Yiyun was surprised to find that the little bear's walking was intermittent.
Simply put, you only take two steps when you sleepwalk.
When he was normally awake, no matter how Sesame Tangyuan tried to induce him, the little bear couldn't even stand up.
Netizens in the live broadcast room left wicked comments after seeing 250 trying every possible way to teach the little bear to walk every day:
"It turns out that pandas can also go crazy when raising babies", "You teach this child, but he won't say a word"...
"Hey~"
The little bear took advantage of his cuteness and blinked his bear eyes.
Yu Yiyun was so angry that she couldn't open her mouth to curse or hit him.
What else can I do with the cub I picked up?
Just pamper her.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long.
Before the hot summer arrived, the little bear had already firmly mastered the skill of walking, and its development speed was far ahead of other bears of the same age.
Seeing his son doing so well, Yu Yijun couldn't feel happy.
In recent days, the temperature has been rising, and the pandas around have become noticeably agitated.
Some bears have already found suitable habitats and moved from the mountainside to higher ground.
Qiqi and Xiongxiong, the two neighbors, are considered to be the slower ones and are now starting to look for new habitats.
According to the instincts that giant pandas have developed over the years, Yu Yiyun should also take the little bear to the high mountains to escape the summer heat and nibble on the summer bamboo that grows best there.
The problem is that moving with the little bear will cause two problems.
First, the black bear that Yu Yiyun used all means to deceive and cheat to catch has different habits from the panda.
It would certainly follow its instinct and stay at lower altitudes where there are more fruits and prey.
Counting the time, the little black bear is already half a year old, and the mother black bear is about to stop breastfeeding.
Even if Yu Yiyun was willing to take the cub with him and travel dozens of kilometers back and forth every day, the feeding relationship would not last long.
Second, when a giant panda cub is three months old, its mother will teach it various survival skills.
Yu Yiyun is a half-baked panda. His life as a panda began when he was six months old, and he has no idea what a three-month-old wild panda needs to learn.
After much thought, Yu Yiyun came to a conclusion.
In order for the little bears to develop better and learn survival skills, they need the care of their mother pandas.
Throughout the habitat, adult female pandas nearby are either busy raising their own cubs or preparing to raise cubs, and have no spare energy to raise the little pandas of unknown origin.
Even Xiong Xiong, who dotes on his daughter, has been particularly cold to Ziwei recently, as if preparing to expel her.
Ziwei is two months older than Zhima Tangyuan and is about to turn one and a half years old. It is indeed time for her to be independent.
When Xiongxiong enters the estrus period this autumn, he will give all his love to his newborn cubs.
At that time, if Ziwei continues to stay in Xiongxiong's territory, she might be expelled by her mother.
The situation is similar with Qiqi.
Although Sesame Rice Balls is still a few months away from being one and a half years old.
But he had been fooling around outside all year round, causing Qi Qi to subconsciously believe that the mission of raising the cubs was over and that the first cub should be left as an orphan.
In addition, Fu Rui often left his masculine scent near her, stimulating Qi Qi to enter the estrus period earlier.
If all goes well, Yu Yiyun will have a lovely biological sister without having to wait until next year.
Under such circumstances, Yu Yiyun naturally could not delay Xiong Xiong and Qi Qi from reproducing their own cubs.
After much thought, it turned out that the most suitable nanny for Little Bear is his biological mother.
On a summer evening, Yu Yiyun brought Little Bear to the place where he was first found.
Even if the newborn baby bear cries out of his wits, his mother has to give up this little life with great pain.
Not only her, countless panda mothers will make the same choice.
Caring for panda cubs is exhausting and a wild mother panda is not capable of raising two cubs.
In order to increase the survival rate of the cubs and take care of both cubs, the staff will steal one of the cubs for artificial feeding when it is born, and then regularly exchange it with the panda that the mother takes care of herself.
Sometimes, in order to successfully switch things up, the staff would resort to a trump card - a bowl of milk with honey added.
The mother panda couldn't resist the temptation of the basin of milk and didn't even notice that her cub had been swapped.
Netizens found it funny and joked that Pen Pen Milk is "Forgotten Cub Milk".
As the cubs grow older, they reach a stage where they no longer need constant care.
Some panda mothers with strong maternal instincts will raise twins at the same time and keep both cubs by their side.
Today, the little bear is able to walk independently and is no longer afraid of freezing to death.
There are large tracts of bamboo forests on the Qinling Mountains, and pandas eat less than 2% of the bamboo, so female pandas don't have to worry about food.
At this stage, the mother panda is fully capable of raising two natural cubs.
With this idea in mind, Yu Yiyun followed the scent left by the mother panda and found her new nest.
The female panda's new den is located in a flat and secretive place.
Zhima Tangyuan observed the distribution of footprints and green balls nearby and concluded that the mother panda showed no signs of moving for the time being.
The reason is obvious.
Yu Yiyun climbed up the tree and looked at the giant panda's nest.
It was discovered that another cub, born to the mother panda in spring, was lying in the nest begging for food from its mother.
It looked like he hadn't yet learned to crawl on all fours, let alone stand up and walk.
Judging from the size of the little bear, he is growing fairly fast and is at a normal level.
Who would have thought that the brothers who were taken away grew up drinking milk from various families and were taken back and forth by Yu Yiyun since they were young, and grew up to be very strong.
A man who has been away for three days should be looked at with new eyes; a bear that has been away for three months has already overtaken his rival.
Led by Yu Yiyun, the little bear slowly approached the mother panda's nest. When he saw a bear lying in its mother's arms drinking milk, he tilted his cute little head.
“Hey?” Where did this giant baby come from?
"Hey, hey." You're such a big bear, can't you walk by yourself?
The mother panda realized that the foreign bear had found her den.
She vigilantly stopped breastfeeding, hid her cub, and crawled out of the cave to check the situation.
"Eeyee~"
Yu Yiyun immediately rushed over to say hello.
The female panda had poor eyesight and could not recognize Yu Yiyun.
But after hearing his noisy voice and smelling the familiar scent, the mother panda made a judgment.
“Hiss!”
She stared at Yu Yiyun warily and made a sound to drive her away.
"Eeyore!" Okay, I'll get out of here right away.
"Eeyee, eyeeee~" Your baby must stay. The baby can't be without a mother~
Yu Yiyun staged the drama of "the bear dealer came to his senses and voluntarily returned the abducted bear cub", guiding the bear cub and its mother to become familiar with each other's scent.
When the little bear was taken away, his eyes were closed and he could not hear anything, so he had no memory of the mother panda in front of him.
But when the little bear was born, he cried for four or five hours beside his mother.
Every cry was heart-wrenching and deeply engraved in the mother panda's mind.
Pandas are closely related to dogs, have very acute hearing and senses of smell, and can identify each other by the sound they make.
The mother panda immediately concluded that the little bear was her cub.
Although she didn't know the reason, the little bear that should have been abandoned not only survived, but also grew faster than the cubs she raised.
The mother panda abandons her cubs out of necessity due to natural selection.
Realizing that her cub was still alive, the mother panda leaned over to sniff the scent and tried to reestablish a relationship with the cub.
Yu Yiyun felt relieved when she saw her taking the initiative to approach the cub.
The little bear grew up eating food from many families and could even play with a black bear, not to mention his own mother.
As long as the mother bear is willing to accept him and keep the little bear by her side, with the little bear's survival ability, he will definitely grow into a strong big bear.
From now on, the cub doesn't need me anymore.
Yu Yiyun retreated to a nearby tree and watched the mother panda get familiar with the cub's scent and then bring him into the tree hole.
This action means that the mother bear accepts the little bear.
After three months of hard work, the cub finally returned to its mother.
Although Yu Yiyun was pleased, she couldn't help feeling a sense of loss.
Three-month-old giant pandas are still in the stage of building cognition, which is equivalent to human preschoolers.
As he grows up and sees more scenery, his new memories will overwrite his childhood memories of drinking Baijia milk, and he will also forget the strange brother who carried him around.
Yu Yiyun was sad for a few seconds, put away her thoughts, quietly left the panda mother's habitat, and tried to comfort herself.
It doesn't matter!
Now that I don’t need to raise a cub, I have more time to fool around.
I promised Leopard that I would take it to the other side of the river to find the coquettish Leopard brother. It’s time to put the itinerary in place.
When they give birth to little leopards, they will have cute little kittens to rub.
It doesn't matter! !
It’s okay!!!
Zhima Tangyuan turned his grief and anger into strength, and ran wildly in the night. After searching for most of the night, he finally found Baobao.
The leopard, who had very poor stamina, had just finished hunting and was lying there gasping for breath and preparing to sleep, when he was inexplicably roared and yelled at by the panda that came to his door.
"Eehee!" How can you sleep at your age?
"Eeyeeeeeeee!" Get up quickly, I'll take you to a blind date.
"Meow!"
Leopard covered his eyes with his paws and roared in despair.
I never dare to mess with a panda again.
Please let me go!
