Chapter 1552 The Migration of Wolves
Seeing is true, hearing is false.
Zhang Zian heard the howl of wolves last night, but how could he say that he had never seen a wolf in the wild, nor had he heard the howl of wolves in the wild. He could only judge from the sound that there was a clear difference from the howl of a coyote. He thought it might be a wolf.
The reason he is not sure is that the gray wolf in California has become extinct since 1924.
As for the wolves I saw in the zoo, they had already been fed to death by people and would never howl once.
Now, he saw this strong North American wolf with his own eyes. What's even more strange is that there is a collar around its neck. What's going on?
Does anyone raise bad wolf as pets?
This is not the Middle East. Whether it is the American rich or the middle eastern dog owners, they prefer to raise big cats to show off their wealth. If you raise a gray werewolf, you probably think it is an impure husky...
As the gray wolf confronted several coyotes, it moved, and Zhang Zi'an saw more details of the collar through the telescope.
This is a collar with a signal transmitter.
He once wore the fence-eared fox in the Egyptian desert.
He understood that the gray wolf was either stocked by scientists or had been captured by scientists. After anesthesia, she put on a collar and released it back to nature. Just as they did in the Egyptian desert, the collar with a signal transmitter was used to track and record the migration route and physiological characteristics of the gray wolf.
Since the extinction of local gray wolves in California became extinct in 1924, they have witnessed the appearance of gray wolves again in Shaskiyu County in 2015 and Larsen National Park in 2017. They were named Shasta Wolf Pack and Larsen Wolf Pack by scientists. The former gray wolves family of seven disappeared in 2016.
Could it be that the disappearing Shasta wolf pack actually ran quietly into the mahogany forest?
This is very likely. Gray wolf has good endurance. In order to find food, they can run more than 30 kilometers a day. As long as they avoid humans, cross-region migration is easy for them. It is speculated that members of the Shasta Wolf Pack and Larsen Wolf Pack may have come to California from Oregon to the north.
As for the collar on its neck, it will fall off automatically after wearing it for a period of time, which is convenient for scientists to recycle it. However, sometimes it will get stuck and fail to fall off as expected, and as a result, it will be exhausted and cannot be recycled. This is also normal. The machine will malfunction. The gray wolf will not care about caring and maintaining the collar when living and hunting.
Of course, other possibilities cannot be ruled out. For example, this wolf is also a lonely wolf from Oregon. Because he cannot always stay with his parents when he grows up, he always has to go out to explore and build his own career, territory and family.
So did the wolf howl last night come from this wolf? Or was this wolf also attracted by the wolf howl?
The coyote that was bitten by it could not even make a sound because of the blockage of the trachea, and the struggle was getting weaker and weaker.
The other coyotes divided the labor, two attracted the attention of the gray wolf on the front, and the other three ran to the side and behind the gray wolf, trying to use the tactic of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao, and rescued their companions by attacking the gray wolf.
In the old Chinese saying, wolves have copper heads, iron legs, tofu waists, which means that the waist of wolves is very fragile. In fact, this is true for most terrestrial vertebrates. The ribs cannot cover the waist, otherwise they will not be able to turn around flexibly, and the waists of people are also very fragile.
The gray wolf is not stupid either. It is impossible to hand over its weakness to the enemy, but it does not want to give up its prey at its mouth, so it simply drags the coyote in its mouth and runs away.
The coyotes followed and chased them.
The gray wolf ran for a while, put down the coyote in its mouth, and roared lowly to scare the coyote away. When the coyotes retreated, they picked up the dying coyote and continued to run, fighting and retreating.
Both sides were not interested in Zhang Zi'an, and they just went back and forth and soon disappeared into the woods.
He waited in place for a while, and neither the coyote nor the gray wolf seemed to have any intention of coming back for a short period of time, but over time, the coyote might come back and continue to eat the deer corpse.
"I'll take a look, you guys are here and wait." He lets the elves stay where they are, because it's dangerous to get close to a deer that died of illness.
He took a few quick deep breaths, then took a deep breath and held it in, quickly walked to the deer corpse, holding his breath not only to avoid smelling the rotten smell that was about to vomit, but also to avoid inhaling possible aerosols.
"Ga? What are you going to see? This deer has no horns, and it is probably a mother. You are not interested!"
Richard, the only one who was not at risk of infection, cherished his life very much, flapping his wings away from his shoulders, and landed on the branches to comb his feathers.
The back abdomen of the deer was opened from the chrysanthemum by the coyotes, and all the internal organs such as intestines were dragged out. The blue and purple red ones were unbearable to see, and he deliberately did not let his eyes fall there.
The smell of the internal organs is probably spreading, and it may attract other scavengers, so his movements should be fast.
He walked around the other side of the deer and saw its ears.
When he was looking at it with a telescope, he noticed something on the ears of the deer corpse, but it was too far away to see clearly. At this time, he saw it clearly. It was a yellow ear tag, which is the type of ear tag that is usually used to mark deer in a farm.
He picked up his cell phone and took a few photos, including the entire body of the deer and the earmarks, and then trotted back to the edge of the open space, then exhaled the turbid air from his lungs, took a few quick and deep breaths to evenly breathe.
"What are you idiots watching?" Richard flew back to his shoulder. The little bird's mouth was really like Tang Monk and never idle. The other elves knew that he must have to say it, and were all waiting to listen.
"This deer may be the deer to be slaughtered in the slaughterhouse," he said, but both he and the elves knew that it was a fantasy to want to run out of the three-meter-high power grid.
Therefore, this deer should not have escaped from the slaughterhouse, otherwise she could have written a copy of the Shawshan deer redemption. Eighty-mostly, it was released by Li Pitt and the others after the slaughterhouse was hit and caught fire and could not operate.
Li Pitt and his team were unable to restore the slaughterhouse to normal in a short period of time. They thought they would have to suspend work for three to five months. What should we do if the batch of live deer that just arrived that day? It is not realistic to raise them. They did not prepare feed and were not so responsible. They might simply open the door and let the deer go and let them fend for themselves.
According to known data, if one deer in the farm is infected with prion protein, it is very likely that all deer will be infected. However, if one deer in the wild is infected, the probability of other deer in the same forest is only one-third.
In any case, the beasts that feed on deer in this forest may be in trouble. .m.
