Animals all over the world love me

Chapter 96 The Gentleman's Giraffe and the Dancing Ostrich

Early in the morning, Zhuang Mu followed the film crew to the temporary resting place of the giraffe, planning to shoot some clips of interacting with the giraffe.

Giraffes are not territorial and usually wander around, so the film crew stepped on it a little earlier last night, and rushed over to shoot before the giraffes left for the next place.

"Professor Zhuang, you can just interact with these giraffes casually later, and get along with other animals as you usually do. The more natural the better." Charles is explaining the shooting process to Zhuang Mu later.

"Okay." Zhuang Mu nodded.

After speaking, he observed the giraffes not far away, and then slowly walked towards one of the giraffes that was eating.

Although the giraffe had its back facing Zhuang Mu, because of the special structure of its eyeballs, it could see things behind it, and its hearing was very sensitive, so it immediately noticed Zhuang Mu's actions.

It twisted its neck slightly and looked at Zhuang Mu for a few times, then continued to eat leaves leisurely.

The giraffe is actually a very timid animal. Although its limbs can kick in all directions, front, back, left, and right, and it is very powerful. It only takes one kick to break the legs of an adult lion. If so, it will still choose to escape.

However, facing Zhuang Mu's approach, it didn't react in any panic.

There are nine subspecies of giraffe, the Masai subspecies distributed here in Tanzania, the pattern spots on the fur of this subspecies of giraffe resemble grape leaves, the edges are jagged, and the ground color is dark chocolate.

The giraffe that is often seen in zoos is the Somali species. The pattern on its body is polygonal large brown spots lined with bright white stripes.

Some individuals have dark red spots that can spread to the feet.

The Somali species of giraffe is generally found in Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia.

Zhuang Mu walked up to the giraffe and looked up. The giraffe in front of him was estimated to be 5 or 6 meters tall, with a very long neck, which looked to be more than 2 meters to 3 meters. Giraffe's front legs.

At this time, the giraffe who was eating the leaves leisurely was startled for a moment, then lowered its head and gave Zhuang Mu a cute look.

Looking at its expression, it seems to be a little puzzled, how can the aura emanating from this little man in front of him be so kind?

After looking at Zhuang Mu for a few moments, it suddenly called out to its companions.

Usually, because of the special structure of the vocal cords and the long neck of giraffes, it takes a lot of effort to make sounds, so they seldom make sounds, so that many people mistakenly think that giraffes can't call.

But in fact giraffes can call, but there are rarely situations that require them to make sounds.

In addition to calling companions, making sounds like other animals also has a great function of deterring enemies.

But the giraffe can see far away because of its height, and by the time the enemy comes over, it has already left.

Even if it does meet an enemy, it can also attack the enemy with its hooves. Not many animals dare to try the power of kicking the enemy with one kick.

Therefore, giraffes don't have much opportunity to use sound at all.

The giraffes around were inexplicably stunned when they heard the call from their companions.

Because they rarely hear the voices of their companions, they are inevitably a little dazed.

The giraffe next to Zhuang Mu saw that no companion responded to it, so it continued to call a few times.

This time, two giraffes finally heard the sound and came over.

After the two giraffes approached, they communicated with the giraffe next to Zhuang Mu with their heads and necks intersecting. The posture was graceful and polite, just like a gentleman and a lady.

This is a unique communication method of giraffes, regardless of gender or age.

After the three giraffes communicated with each other, they all looked at Zhuang Mu together.

Zhuang Mu felt their emotions, walked to the side of the other two giraffes, and reached out to touch their torsos.

A few seconds later, the two giraffes nodded excitedly, and then called their companions together.

The giraffe that Zhuang Mu first came into contact with also made a calling sound.

The three giraffes called out to their companions together, and all the giraffes around them gathered together.

Then, the giraffes began a new round of head-neck communication.

Immediately afterwards, they gathered together one after another, and they were very close to each other, with their long legs touching each other.

This special behavior is very important in the daily life of giraffes.They convey warmth and affection to each other through this ritual.

Giraffes are rare species in the animal world that are huge in size but have an exceptionally gentle personality.They seldom fight at ordinary times, and even the scene where other animals compete for the right to control each other is quite rare in the giraffe group.

For the love triangle, which is very confusing in the human world, it is very natural and common in the world of giraffes.

In the giraffe group, it can be said that all members are warm and loving with each other for a lifetime.

That's why the giraffes were suddenly so excited when they discovered Zhuang Mu's "wonderful work".

Zhuang Mu was able to resonate with the giraffes because of his talent, which made the giraffes regard him as a companion.

But Zhuang Mu's figure was too short and strange in the eyes of giraffes, which made the giraffes even more curious.

Although Zhuang Mu is about 1.8 meters tall, he is a dwarf in front of the giraffe.The giraffes were crowded together, Zhuang Mu had to stand a little away to avoid being squeezed.

At this time, a giraffe bit a leaf from a tree and handed it to Zhuang Mu.

Zhuang Mu knew it was a good intention, so he reached out to take it.

Then, when other giraffes saw it, they all followed their companions' example and stretched out their heads to pick leaves and gave them to Zhuang Mu.

But after a while, Zhuang Mu's hands were full of leaves.

Although Zhuang Mu knew something about giraffes before, he had never seen a giraffe behave like this to its companions.

He thought for a while, and guessed that the giraffe should help deliver food to him because he was too short to eat leaves.

Zhuang Mu held the leaf in his hand, feeling both funny and inexplicably warm.

The feeling of the giraffe to him is very different from that of other animals.

Like the crow before, although it is also a herd animal, it also regards Zhuang Mu as a companion.But what he felt from the crow was the aura of "crazy, cool, and bombarding the sky", which didn't match Zhuang Mu's own aura.

And the giraffe gave him the kind of "warm and jade-like" temperament, which made him feel particularly comfortable and resonant.

----

The film crew in the distance looked at the current spectacle, and they were all stunned.

The picture in front of them gave people a very comfortable and pleasant feeling, which made them reluctant to take their eyes away for a long time.

Even if you blink your eyes, you are afraid that you will miss this beautiful scenery.

"I've never seen a giraffe so friendly to people," said Harvey Jenner, a professional guide specially invited by the film crew.

"Just get used to it, just get used to it." Qiao Jingning on the side said with a smile.

"Watching Professor Zhuang interacting with animals is really something you will never get tired of watching!" A staff member said with emotion.

"I want to go and pet the giraffe! Harvey, can we go there?" another asked Harvey Jenner.

"It should be fine in the past, but if you touch it, I think it's better not to touch it. Giraffes are very timid. It's okay if you just scare them away. If they kick around because they are frightened, it's not a trivial matter to be kicked. , will be in danger at any time." Harvey said.

"We all know the temper of giraffes, but they are so quiet and well-behaved in the company of Professor Zhuang, I really want to go up and touch them." The staff looked forward to the scene of Zhuang Mu and the giraffe getting along well not far away. .

They have filmed many wildlife documentaries, but this time because of Zhuang Mu's participation, the state of these wild animals is very different from what they have seen before.

Therefore, they are all naturally fascinated and want to touch it.

After all, stroking cats and dogs is very common, but stroking giraffes is still quite a novel experience.

"Dr. Zhuang is a special case, and ordinary people can't come." Harvey said.

"Aren't you familiar with giraffes? Have you ever touched these giraffes?" someone asked.

"I can only get close to it. It's impossible to touch it. This is not a zoo." Harvey said with a wry smile and shook his head.

This time, in order to better shoot, the film crew specially invited him to help guide the staff of the film crew to approach the herd of giraffes.

Because the previous wildlife documentaries shot by the film crew deliberately distanced themselves from the animals, and used camouflaged cameras to capture the most realistic state of the animals in the wild.

But this time it was necessary to film the interaction between Zhuang Mu and the animals, so the film crew needed to be as close to the animals as possible.

After all, if you use a fixed hidden camera, it is difficult to guarantee that you can capture the most beautiful pictures of Zhuang Mu interacting with animals.

If you want to use multi-angle hidden shooting, you need to fully consider the terrain and the range of activities of animals.

Moreover, this was done to protect Zhuang Mu's safety. After all, Zhuang Mu couldn't be left alone on the grassland, right?

In any case, with more people, at least they can help each other in case of emergencies.

Although everyone knows that Zhuang Mu has a very magical hypnotism, but everyone knows that the wildness of wild animals can sometimes be scary, and no one dares to take this risk.

Therefore, the film crew's choice of where to shoot and the animals they photographed were carefully thought through.

Before coming, Harvey Jenner thought about showing off for the film crew to see.

How could he know that Zhuang Mu, a master animal hypnotist, was in the filming crew, and he suddenly felt that he was useless.

Thinking of the excited expressions on the faces of tourists when he led them to observe giraffes at close range, Harvey felt very refreshed.

Looking at the current situation again, Harvey feels helpless in his heart. It is too depressing to have no chance to pretend to be aggressive.

----

Because Zhuang Mu and the giraffe get along so well that it is unbelievable, the whole shooting process was surprisingly smooth, and the required materials were shot in almost two hours.

The time for this shooting was relatively tight, so after the film crew finished shooting the giraffe, they planned to continue to the next place to shoot other animals.

Before leaving, the giraffes were very reluctant to leave Zhuang Mu, and they insisted on covering the roof of the off-road vehicle that Zhuang Mu was riding in with leaves before letting Zhuang Mu leave.

"Harvey, is this the giraffe's farewell ceremony?" Charles asked Harvey.

"...It should be!" Harvey was stunned, how could I know!Never seen it before!What happened to the giraffes today? ? ?

The film crew went all the way to go to the habitat of the rhino, and passed the area where the African ostrich was active on the way.

When the film crew's off-road convoy was driving on the road, several ostriches suddenly whizzed by their car, and after overtaking, they still didn't forget to look back at the film crew's convoy.

That expression, that look, seemed to say: You idiots are too slow!

"The ostrich can't see anything in front of it, so it's common to be overtaken by an ostrich here." Harvey immediately explained.

However, except for Qiao Jingning, the people in the car were all film crews who often photographed wild animals and were very familiar with ostriches.

Therefore, they didn't show much surprise, which made Harvey feel very depressed again.

This guide is so well done that there is no sense of existence!Harvey smiled bitterly in his heart.

Zhuang Mu was sitting in the passenger seat with the window open. When an ostrich passed by the car, it glanced at him and slowed down in the next second.

Immediately afterwards, while running, the ostrich looked at Zhuang Mu in the car with curious eyes from time to time.

Charles, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the off-road vehicle in front, saw this scene from the rearview mirror beside the car, froze for a moment and looked back with interest.

After watching for a while, he found that the ostrich didn't seem to intend to leave them, but had been running beside Zhuang Mu's car.

Without looking back, he said to the staff in the car: "Tell the others, let's stop and pat the ostrich."

"Shooting an ostrich?" The staff in the car were taken aback after hearing this.

Because ostriches grow fast, have strong reproductive power and are easy to raise, many countries in the world have domesticated a large number of ostriches.

Therefore, in terms of its number, ostriches are only low-risk in the classification standard of endangered animals.

Moreover, according to the current reproduction rate of ostriches, they should become a non-threatening species in the not-too-distant future.

Therefore, this documentary did not intend to shoot ostriches.

Therefore, when the staff heard that Charles said that he was going to shoot an ostrich, he would show a puzzled and dazed expression.

The convoy stopped quickly, and the ostrich also stopped.

When Charles saw it, he said excitedly, "Look, another animal has been attracted by Professor Zhuang!"

Although he has watched the scene of Zhuang Mu attracting wild animals many times, Charles is still very interested in it.

"What is that ostrich doing?" Qiao Jingning got out of the car and was taken aback when she saw the ostrich flapping its wings outside the window of Zhuang Mu's car.

"It's dancing, it's the ostrich's way of expressing happiness and friendliness," Charles replied.

Harvey on the side was half a beat behind, his open mouth closed helplessly, and he glanced at Charles with a sad look in his eyes.

He is a person with a strong desire for performance, so he came to be a guide, in order to introduce tourists to the beauty of the African savannah.

However, meeting Charles and Zhuang Mu today, especially Zhuang Mu, made him feel that he was here to make soy sauce.

Charles had no intention of experiencing Harvey's helplessness at all, but took out the camera and began to shoot the scene of the ostrich dancing.

Zhuang Mu in the off-road vehicle looked at the ostrich outside the window and thought it was very funny, so he opened the door and got out of the car.

Seeing Zhuang Mu getting off the car, the ostrich jumped even more happily.

After jumping for a while, the ostrich stopped, then rubbed its head against Zhuang Mu's shoulder, and at the same time shook its sturdy body, motioning Zhuang Mu to sit on it.

Zhuang Mu was taken aback for a moment, smiled and shook his head.

However, the ostrich still didn't give up. It approached Zhuang Mu and began to rub Zhuang Mu with its wings.

Seeing that Zhuang Mu was still indifferent, the ostrich began to lightly hit Zhuang Mu with the side of its body.

"What is that ostrich doing???" Charles turned to ask Harvey with a blank face.

"..." Harvey looked confused, I'm here to make soy sauce. . .

It's not that he didn't want to answer, but he didn't understand what the ostrich's behavior meant.

Why are the animals I encountered today not normal? ? !Harvey smiled bitterly in his heart.

Ever since the ostrich took the initiative to dance with Zhuang Mu just now, Harvey couldn't understand it.Although he knows that ostriches have this hobby, generally domesticated ostriches are easier to get along with humans.

It was the first time he had seen a wild ostrich take the initiative to dance with humans.

----

Zhuang Mu couldn't do anything about being disturbed by the ostrich, so he reached out and touched the ostrich's neck, trying to comfort the ostrich.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he put his hand on the ostrich's neck, the ostrich squatted down all of a sudden, making an inviting gesture.

Everyone else present was stunned, what kind of operation is this? ? !

Seeing this, Zhuang Mu felt quite helpless, hesitated for a while, and had no choice but to step on the back of the ostrich.

Immediately afterwards, the ostrich stood up all of a sudden, Zhuang Mu couldn't sit still, so he quickly adjusted his posture.

"Can wild ostriches be ridden?" Charles murmured.

"I've never seen it before, domesticated ones are fine, wild ones are fine too..." Harvey blinked and said.

What happened today was beyond his imagination.

Riding an ostrich is not a very rare thing, and now many ostrich amusement parks or ostrich farms have developed this project.

Even, some people hold ostrich riding competitions.

However, those ostriches are all domesticated ostriches, and the wild ones are much smaller.

Wild ostriches can kill lions with one kick. Who would dare to provoke a wild ostrich, let alone ride a wild ostrich.

Therefore, for the scene in front of him, Harvey said, "I can't understand it!".

After Zhuang Mu rode the ostrich, the ostrich began to pace aimlessly back and forth, as if to let Zhuang Mu get used to the feeling on the bird's back.

At this time, Zhuang Mu was riding on the back of the ostrich, and he really had a very special feeling.

Because an ostrich is a biped, the feeling of riding on it is completely different from that of riding a horse, a bit like riding a dinosaur.

Zhuang Mu thought it was very interesting, so he touched the ostrich's neck.

At this time, the ostrich seemed to have sensed that Zhuang Mu's current state was very good from the contact of Zhuang Mu's palm.

So, in the next second, the ostrich drove Zhuang Mu into the distance.

Because things were developing so fast, everyone present couldn't react for a while.

When everyone came back to their senses one after another, the sound of "**!" came out one after another.

Looking again, the ostrich had already carried Zhuang Mu thousands of meters away from them.

Xia Jingshen hurriedly drove after him.

"What happened?" Qiao Jingning looked at Charles and Harvey blankly, "Zhuang Mu was taken away by the ostrich?"

She knew Zhuang Mu's character very well, and knew that Zhuang Mu would never do such a dangerous thing like galloping on an ostrich rashly.

Therefore, the first thought that popped into her mind was that Zhuang Mu was taken away by the ostrich!

If ostriches were not animals, she almost thought that Zhuang Mu was kidnapped by ostriches.

"What's the situation?!" Charles opened his mouth wide.

In the next second, he hurriedly shouted to everyone: "Hurry up and get in the car, and save Professor Zhuang!"

Everyone got into the car immediately after hearing this, and chased after the ostrich.
