Tiger Dad and Baby Show is a Hit
It was not until the third day that Da Hu discovered that he had actually run out of the barrier again.
And during these few days, it had a vague feeling that something was guiding it towards the barrier.
Either it was the inexplicably fragrant prey, or the beautiful ribbons flickering in the air, or the faint strange sounds from the other side...
But having learned from the last lesson, every time Da Hu curiously approached that position, he would brake in time and turn away.
This made the staff lose their hair in worry.
According to some records handed down, there are indeed animals that, after forming a habit, will subconsciously think that there is still an obstacle even after the obstacle is removed, and will not continue to hit the wall... This can be considered a kind of learning ability.
It seems that Da Hu is the same.
After much deliberation, they had no choice but to take advantage of the psychology of adult tigers raising their cubs and placed a robot outside that played the cubs' cries.
This time, they succeeded.
"roar!"
The big tiger had been concentrating on the movements of the strange tiger cub outside, and walked out unknowingly. Until the sound suddenly died down, it turned its head and looked at the familiar other side, then it realized that it had been lured out again.
...annoyed.
The big cat's striped tail slammed heavily on the ground.
The last time it went out and was able to come back in was already the limit of its cognition, so it didn't dare to bet on when the invisible barrier would appear.
It sat in front of the barrier, looking irritated.
"Hey, aren't you going in?"
"You have to lure them with something, and then use the cat's meow."
"I'm sorry, Da Hu, we didn't mean to lie to you..."
“Meow!”
There was the cry of a young tiger cub again, this time coming from inside the barrier.
"……roar!"
Da Hu became visibly angry.
It probably knows now that there is no tiger cub here for it to pick up.
Now that you’ve tricked it out, what do you want to do now?
What are you calling in there?!
But the tiger's constant crying and roaring made it feel really distressed.
When Da Hu walked back without hope, he unexpectedly found that he could enter without any hindrance.
Da Hu was stunned.
After waiting for a while, it tried to go out again - there was no obstruction.
The big cat raised its paw and waved it in the air - the paw easily penetrated the obstruction in its memory.
It stopped where it was, looking at its own claws, looking somewhat doubtful about its fate.
As if it had thought of something, its ears even drooped.
The tiger's roar had stopped long ago, but the big tiger didn't seem to care.
"Hmm? That's not right, why does Da Hu look unhappy?"
"Hiss, is our action too sudden?"
"But if we let it figure it out on its own, it will probably take a long time for it to realize..."
The staff behind the scenes frowned and were a little worried when they saw Da Hu's reaction.
But soon, the surveillance footage changed.
"roar--"
After confirming that he could freely enter and exit the barrier that had previously allowed only entry but not exit, Da Hu put aside his subtle sense of loss and became a little more positive.
It barked at the forest outside the barrier and ran out without hesitation.
The small robot that was tracking it quickly caught up, recording the scene of the forest, which had been peaceful for a long time, and the birds and beasts fleeing in all directions under the threat of the male tiger.
From a bird's-eye view, wherever the tiger goes, it will scare away a bunch of birds and beasts. It is simply a walking killing weapon, and anyone who sees it will be afraid.
"There are so many wild boars... Speaking of which, trapping the big tiger in the barrier will easily cause the ecology outside to be out of balance." The staff member held his chin in his hand. "Even if there are some carnivores outside, they are not as strong as a tiger."
After all, it was the territory of the big tiger before, so there must not be many strong carnivores who could stay there, and they were probably all expelled.
The burden of maintaining ecological balance still falls on the tiger...
Sure enough, allowing Da Hu to freely enter and exit the barrier was the right choice.
In the live broadcast room, the camera faithfully recorded the scene of the tiger running in the forest, and the narration spoke gently at the right time:
“After a series of twists and turns, the show finally came to a successful conclusion.”
"Because of his special performance in the show, he became an internet sensation and slapped the faces of those who initially looked down on him. He is almost a comeback as a king."
The audience was speechless.
[Well, letting the tiger go back to the mountains, how can this not be considered the return of the king? ()]
[Animals: We didn't provoke any tigers, help! ! ]
[I am dying of laughter. Tiger Dad is really visibly happy. ]
[After all, if you consider the age of the tiger, it is only slightly older than the second generation tiger, and is still a young and vigorous adult tiger. ]
[Sure enough, the strength inside the barrier is not enough for Tiger Dad to exert himself, hahaha, it’s really boring to lead a cub in a low-end game (bushi)]
In a real forest, there is not only soft and harmless prey.
Shuttled through the dense forest, the golden eyes of the South China tiger reflected the spotted big cats on the trees, the black and big bears on the river bank, and even the giant pythons wandering in the fallen leaves...
Colorful, strange and graceful.
This is the nature full of dangers, where all creatures compete for freedom in the frosty sky.
It was all very interesting.
"roar--"
At this moment, the tiger's roar that kept echoing in the forest was telling them that the former master of the forest had returned.
For a long time——
People finally began to hesitate:
"Wait, Da Hu isn't going back yet?"
"Why are we getting further and further away? This is not the way back to the barrier!!"
"Could it be that we made a mistake in our judgment, and the tiger doesn't want to take care of the cubs?"
Behind the scenes, when they discovered that Da Hu showed no signs of returning, the staff finally began to panic.
They don’t want to experience the panic of witnessing a group of tigers again!
But fortunately, Dahu remained restrained.
Just when everyone was considering whether to use some means to get the tiger to return, it took the initiative to walk back.
It ran so far this time just to bring a gift.
Although this was just an unexpected surprise trip, it still thought of its vulnerable companions within the barrier.
They can't go out for the time being, but it wants to tell them about the world outside.
Can't we always stay in a safe place?
After easily killing the prey it met on the road and hastily feeding itself, the tiger walked back with the prey's horn in its mouth, and also took a few exotic flowers and plants with a brisk pace.
——This is an animal that is not in the barrier. Bring it in to show the other tigers the world.
In short, it is to coax children.
A loving father is as strong as a tiger.
Seeing this, the narrator continued to summarize:
"Although the show is over and he/she has resumed his/her identity, he/she is still willing to maintain the friendship in the variety show."
"Even though the child is not his real cub, he is willing to teach it step by step, raise it and form their special new home."
"And their subsequent stories will be very long."
The audience threw flowers to celebrate.
【Wuhu, congratulations on the end!!】
【That’s great. 】
[So gentle and considerate. His first reaction after he got out was to find something that wasn't in there to comfort his child. Hahaha. He is indeed a loving old father.]
[Hahaha, no tiger can refuse a beautiful souvenir () I guess Chenchen and the tiger cub will go crazy fighting for it. ]
[Okay, okay, it really is a perfect ending. I hope to see other tigers integrate into nature as soon as possible~]
[Don't worry, with Tiger Dad's guidance, I think there is hope for the return of the South China tiger in this world. Come on, tigers! ]
The rewilding training of breeding tigers has been progressing in an orderly manner.
Because of many previous cases, the staff has always been very cooperative with Tiger Dad's actions, and have full faith in his various behaviors, firmly believing that all behaviors have their meaning and they must work hard to cooperate.
for example--
When Tiger Dad intermittently brought back souvenirs of his prey from outside the barrier, they guessed that Tiger Dad felt that the tigers needed to remember these animals, so they arranged for small robots to simulate those animals and walk around the tigers to strengthen their memory.
Over time, people realized that Tiger Dad seemed to have discovered them.
When entering the new stage, people began to conduct special training for tigers and arranged robot-simulated predators to compete with tigers.
Once, the robot happened to run into Tiger Dad after snatching the prey and running away. They felt something was wrong behind the scenes, thinking that Tiger Dad, who always protected his people, might come over and slap the robot to death, and they were ready to abandon the prey and run away.
But Tiger Dad did not stand up for anyone.
On the contrary, the big cat tilted its head thoughtfully, looked at the robot-disguised predator for a long time, and finally just snorted and turned away.
It is impossible for it to be afraid like other breeding tigers and not dare to do it, so there is only one possibility -
Perhaps Tiger Dad realized that a third party was also training the tigers.
Whether it was the sudden appearance of the tigers, the well-timed increase and decrease of various prey, or the things that had led it out of the barrier many times before, they were probably all similar.
But because it had never seen the true identity of the human behind the scenes, it did not develop any extreme vigilance and just observed silently.
After all, it was originally planning to start stealing the tigers' prey to train them.
Now that there are these new competitors, it doesn’t have to worry about it anymore.
Simply put, the tiger felt that previous arrangements made by humans were unreasonable, so it intervened, but it felt that this design was just right, so it didn't intend to interfere.
Therefore, tigers need to face human training on their own——
“Ouch?!”
At first, the tigers did not want to fight their competitors and only planned to drive them away with their shouting.
But when they found that their prey had been taken away directly, they were all stunned and filled with anger.
ah?
What happened? ?
Is it still possible to do this?
At present, in their cognition, aggressive behavior still only stays at prey.
Faced with these unfamiliar carnivores, even with the experience taught by the big tiger, they did not dare to act rashly and just watched.
But soon, as the prey gradually decreased and they went hungry from time to time, the big cats could no longer bear it and began to sanction their competitors.
“Ahhh!”
"roar--!"
The staff behind the scenes had complicated expressions.
In the surveillance footage, the black bear simulated by the robot is surrounded by three tigers. Several big cats come up from time to time to take a bite. They do it without any rules, but they win in numbers.
He sighed deeply: "Alas."
Although, it is a good thing that the Tigers have finally become aggressive towards their competitors.
But... why are they still gathering together at this time? This is unreasonable! !
Perhaps it was because the previous group movements formed a preconceived impression on them, so when these big cats really fight, they like to seek help from outside.
This is not a tiger...
It's clearly become a lion! !
sigh.
There is no other way. You have to eat one bite at a time and train slowly.
Fortunately, with Da Hu's occasional advice and corrections, the rewilding training is still progressing steadily, and the tigers' survival ability is visibly improving.
Hunting alone, scouting the environment, and improving skills...
The big tiger taught all these to the other tigers without reservation, just like the king of the tiger pack.
In his spare time, Dahu would lie on the ground, half-closing his eyes to bask in the sun.
Occasionally, a few carefree little tigers would crawl all over it and lick its fur until it became wrinkled, but the big tiger did not show any dissatisfaction.
Growing up in a wolf pack, it is not averse to such a feeling of intimacy.
And it just so happens that the same is true for the tigers raised in the breeding facility.
They met each other and chose each other.
In this way, a somewhat peculiar group of tigers gradually gained a foothold on the mirror planet.
At the beginning, among all the tigers, only the big tiger could move freely in and out of the forest.
Since when, this ability has inexplicably been regarded by all tigers as a symbol of maturity. In the dead of night, many tigers will quietly run to the original barriers of their respective territories to test them.
At first, people didn't know what they were trying to do.
It wasn't until one day when the camera captured the envy in the eyes of these tigers when they saw the big tiger easily walk out of the barrier, and their subsequent covert imitation movements, that people began to understand a little.
Then, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Hahahaha, how about, after we confirm that they have sufficient capabilities, we allow them to freely shuttle through the barrier and confirm their independence in this way?"
"Hey, don't we need to move somewhere else?"
"The current training is all tailored to the conditions in this forest. There is no need to change the location. This is the forest we carefully selected for the South China tiger. It would be best if we can release it here."
"Well, I'm just worried that the place isn't big enough."
"It doesn't matter. When all tigers can be independent or raise cubs independently, we can just remove the barrier. It won't affect anything."
"It's really interesting. Now it seems that the second generation tigers are completely influenced by the big tiger and have become close to it. They don't even have any objections when they visit each other... Will the tigers in the future be like this?"
"The third generation raised by the tiger may be OK, but it may not be OK if they go further away. However, when that time comes, they will not be in danger."
This is roughly how the Tigers develop.
With the joint training of Dahu and people, finally, a second-generation tiger met the release standards and was equipped with a shield, allowing it to walk out of the training area.
Then came the second one, the third one...
The little tigers have also grown into sub-adults and are tentatively stepping into the forest.
Coincidentally, although each small family quickly found their own new territory outside, they were all arranged around the existing territory on the edge of the training area, which means that they can return to the barrier at any time.
The forest inside the barrier is like their collective territory.
Perhaps they may have some sense of territory outside, but in that forest, they have no such mentality and are extremely tolerant and gentle.
They are tigers, but they are not like the tigers people imagine.
They have the pride to fight alone, but also the patience to live in harmony.
Compared to the tigers you normally encounter in the wild, which might fight to the death over territory, they are much more comradely.
Of course, all this is inseparable from the efforts of Tiger Dad.
After all, as the South China tiger recovers its wildness, its sensitivity to territory is actually increasing.
Whenever tigers started fighting because of this subtle emotion, the tiger father would arrive upon hearing the news and use his still absolutely suppressive force to separate the two tigers, violently ending the conflict.
After a while, no one could argue anymore.
Apart from that, Tiger Dad is still keen on raising his cubs.
It is eight years old this year.
Although it has been an adult for a long time, its physical condition has not declined. Instead, it has become stronger year by year. This year, it is so powerful that it seems able to punch two adult tigers of the same age.
After all, an eight-year-old tiger is at its peak.
However, Dahu doesn't seem to have any intention of expanding his territory.
After all, it had recently picked up a new cub and was happily continuing to raise it, so it patiently stayed in the more comfortable barrier.
“Ouch!”
The tiger cub called beside it, and the big tiger gently lowered its head and licked the little guy's fur.
This little tiger looks a bit like it.
Whether it is its slightly larger size compared to tigers of the same age, or its golden eyes, it is very similar to it.
He seems to be the most promising cub of the same age.
When he first saw the cub, the tiger thought it was the newborn of a nearby tigress. After asking around, no one had any clues. It was as if the cub had fallen from the sky.
Da Hu narrowed his eyes and snored softly.
Just like suddenly seeing other tigers many years ago.
“Woo…”
A mournful voice came from a distance, interrupting Dahu's thoughts. He turned around and saw Chenchen, who had already grown up, walking slowly towards him.
Although he is an adult, Chenchen does not seem to have any intention of challenging his father. Instead, he is always envious of the fresh cubs around Dahu, as if he still thinks of himself as a child.
"call--"
Da Hu snorted, waited motionless as a mountain for Chen Chen to come over, closed his eyes and touched his head with it.
Next, Chenchen brought it an unexpected news.
Chenchen ran into several wolves in its territory.
It smelled strange yet familiar. After recalling for a long time, it finally recognized that they were the wolf pack that had raised Tiger Dad.
snort……
It will always be remembered.
Chenchen narrowed his eyes and snorted with some pride, and the shadow of his childhood could be vaguely seen on his face:
"roar!"
They didn't seem to have a good life before, probably because they went to a relatively barren place.
So, it gave today's prey to them.
The two old wolves didn't recognize Chenchen at first and were a little scared, but when they saw its strange behavior, they seemed to recognize it and kept watching it.
Then, Chenchen told them that Tiger Dad was still here.
Chenchen tilted his head, ears fluttering, and tried to give a suggestion.
"Roar?"
So do you want to meet them?
Da Hu was stunned.
The time spent with companions was leisurely and pleasant, and over the past few years, it has left almost no regrets.
Thinking back carefully, the only possibility was that it was a hasty decision made when the wolves and tigers confronted each other that year.
After all, according to wolf pack tradition, it should support its parents.
But now, it seems that even this last regret can be resolved.
Da Hu took a deep breath, slowly stood up, and followed Chenchen for a while, passing through the familiar woods and coming to the shore. When he looked up, he saw the old wolf couple in the distance.
The two wolves have changed a lot, yet it seems that not much has changed.
The wolf pack will support the old wolves, so although the wolf couple's fur appears dull due to inevitable aging, their bodies are not overly thin.
The wolf was also looking at the tiger.
They had been apart for so long that they were already a little dazed and not sure whether they had ever raised a beautiful big cat with colorful fur. They even suspected that the big tiger was teasing them when they were communicating with Chenchen in a friendly manner.
But now, having just met, they can be sure.
Yes, there was such a special child, and they had a special time, which was very beautiful.
Memories may fade slowly, but instinctive emotions will not.
“Woo——”
The wolf couple looked at the tiger, called out softly, and approached it on their own initiative.
After the initial shock, Dahu took a step forward and approached them.
Wonderful family ties, wonderful origins.
They snuggled up to each other, close to each other, and each felt in a trance.
After so many years, we were able to reunite again.
Afterwards, this group of wolves, which were originally still hesitant about their future destination, finally chose to stay in this place based on the advice of the old wolf.
There are many powerful tiger scents here, and logically, they shouldn't be here.
But surprisingly, I don’t know whether it was the tiger father’s special instruction or the second generation of tigers’ spontaneous action, but in short, a delicate state of peace was reached between the tigers and wolves here.
The usually domineering tiger will not drive away wolves violently when it encounters them, nor will it actively attack them, nor will it feel offended by their hunting.
This almost saved the wolf pack, which was originally in decline.
This scene makes people feel a lot of emotions, and they can't help but think of the past few years -
Many years ago, the wolf couple chose to accept a tiger cub, and the cub grew up to be the king of the forest a few years later. He also accepted other tigers that suddenly came to this planet.
Later, the second generation of tigers that had received special education returned and accepted the original wolf pack.
In each other's most difficult times, they supported each other and got through it.
The South China tiger has taken root again in this world, and this wolf pack has unexpectedly become a local dark horse and regained vitality.
It's just fate.
Even in the foreseeable future, the descendants of tigers and wolves will sooner or later return to their original state of survival due to the nature of their blood.
The wolves of the future generations will be afraid of tigers again, and the tigers of the future generations will gradually become alienated from each other due to territorial disputes...
But the stories and emotions they presented during this period are enough to be remembered by everyone.
Nature always gives people some unexpected miracles.
Just like people's evaluation of Dahu's life experience -
Life will find a way.
Existence itself is a miracle.
In fact, the ending is not only the ending of Tiger Dad and Wolf, but also the ending of the tigers and Tiger Dad.
After all, he is a male tiger who is very good at raising cubs. He will not have to worry about his old age. He will live comfortably in the barrier in his old age and be overwhelmed by the care of his children.
