Chapter 2131 The first residents of the protection base

Because there were no animals on the island before, when the staff were notified to go to the pier to pick up the animals, many people thought it was a joke, and they just went there with the mentality of just looking at it.Many people asked others on the road, who is so capable to transport so many animals all at once.

A well-informed staff member told his companions: "I heard that it was the Chinese who came by yacht yesterday and brought several animals that needed protection. The base called us to receive these animals."

Douglas also walked to the pier with everyone, and he understood who the man was talking about when he heard this. He was even more upset when he was already in a bad mood, and he couldn't help but sneered and said: "I'll ship a few more at once." What about the animals that need to be protected? It’s just nonsense! Do you think that the protected animals are stray cats and dogs, and if you catch them, there will be a large group? I think that Chinese is just bragging. Don’t just see some ordinary wild animals in a while. Animals, that is not worthy of such a good facility in the base!"

Although no one responded to Douglas' words, many people actually thought so in their hearts.As he said, the reason why protected animals need to be protected is because they are rare and cannot be encountered casually.

However, when a group of people came to the pier, they were all stunned and couldn't believe what they saw was real.

Douglas's speculation was completely wrong. There were several cages neatly placed on the pier, and several rare protected animals were indeed locked inside.

The most eye-catching ones are naturally two baby elephants and a rhino cub. The living space of these behemoths is getting smaller and smaller, and they are strictly protected animals all over the world.Zhao Lei actually got two baby elephants and a rhino cub all at once, which really surprised everyone.

In fact, these three animal cubs were accidentally rescued by Zhao Lei in the wild when he rescued the kidnapped Zhang Lei in Africa.The three cubs, whose mother had been killed by poachers at the time, would also be sold to overseas buyers.If you are lucky, you will spend your life in a cage. If you are unlucky, you will be abused and die early for various reasons.

At that time, Zhao Lei was also moved with compassion, and took the three little guys into Hulu Space for temporary care.Right now the protection base just lacks "new residents", so Zhao Lei contributed them.

Anyway, the protection base has a good environment and the staff takes good care of it. Most importantly, there are Jianmu to gather aura, so that the whole Duolun Island is very suitable for the growth of animals and plants, and there is no need to worry about accidents to these three little guys.

In addition to baby elephants and rhino cubs, the other cages housed a cheetah, two sloths and several macaws native to Central and South America.

Although these animals come from all over the world, they have one thing in common, that is, they are indeed rare animals protected by international conventions!

Some of these animals were rescued by Zhao Lei during his last trip to Africa. The sloths and macaws were bought in the local black market in South America by driving the Soul Shovel overnight.

If these animals fall into the hands of poachers, there will be no good results. Many of them were injured when they were captured.So Zhao Lei simply brought them all to the protection base, which could at least save the lives of these animals.

So many rare animals came to the protection base at once, which also made the staff very excited, and they all took out their mobile phones to take pictures.However, they are all trained professionals. Although they are excited, in order not to disturb these animals, they still try to keep quiet as much as possible, and they don't even use a flash to take pictures.

While many people were taking pictures, they were also secretly looking at Douglas, and that kind of look made him feel ashamed.If it weren't for the fact that he still had unrealistic fantasies about Xu Jia and Zhang Lei, he might have made up his mind to leave the protection base now.

Even so, Douglas was unwilling to fail, and immediately turned into lemon essence, muttering bitterly: "They are just ordinary protected animals, what's the big deal!"

At this time, several sinks next to it caught the attention of the staff.Among them was a volunteer from China who was an expert in the study of aquatic animals. Unable to hold back his curiosity, he went up to take a look in the tank, and immediately shouted in shock, "It's the Yangtze finless porpoise!"

The others were even more excited when they heard this. An old man in his 50s grabbed the Chinese volunteer and asked anxiously, "Is it really the Yangtze finless porpoise? Did you read it correctly?"

The Chinese volunteer said word by word: "I study this kind of animal, absolutely right!"

When the others heard this, they all showed excited smiles, and many of them happily gave their companions high fives.

We must know that the number of Yangtze finless porpoises is extremely rare, and the most pessimistic statement is that their numbers have fallen below the minimum requirements for maintaining the population.To put it bluntly, this kind of animal will inevitably become extinct, and it has become a regret in the hearts of many animal protectors.

At present, many organizations are doing their best to protect this animal.It is hoped that the number of finless porpoises can gradually recover through artificial breeding.

And now there are three finless porpoises in the protection base, which means that they also have the opportunity to contribute to the protection of this animal from extinction. Of course, everyone is very happy.

These three finless porpoises were rescued by Zhao Lei from the Yangtze River, and they have been kept in Hulu Space.This time it was also taken out together, which can be regarded as enriching the animal species in the protection base.

As long as you have a little understanding of rare animals, you will not be unaware of the status of the Yangtze finless porpoise.Douglas was also speechless now, and couldn't say anything else.Looking at the other people who were all smiling, this guy secretly made up his mind to leave as soon as the ferry arrived, and never return to this place where he humiliated himself!
At the same time, Xu Jia and Zhang Lei also came to the pier. The two people who had been prepared for a long time did not show too excited expressions, but urged everyone to quickly transport these animals to their respective enclosures, so as not to let them suffer. Too many scares.

The over-excited staff came back to their senses, and stepped forward to take care of the animals they were responsible for according to their respective task assignments.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, all the animals were settled quickly.Even those finless porpoises were put into the lake on the island.After cleaning up by Jianmu, there are no predators like crocodiles, and the finless porpoise can live well here.

Maybe because of the aura-filled environment here, they will be able to reproduce successfully in the future and make a huge contribution to the protection of this population.

Leaving aside the future, Zhao Lei, who has made great contributions to the animal protection base, was unexpectedly left out in the cold.
