Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 94: A Real Man Has No Problem

My feet clearly wanted to leave, but my head had its own ideas.

The narcissistic white-tailed deer lowered its head and went forward.

The deer was very experienced and attacked while making a loud cry.

The narcissistic white-tailed deer had never participated in the fight during the mating season. While it was rushing to fight, it also made loud calls, but you could tell from the sound that it was a little guilty.

The female deer that was favored by the narcissistic white-rumped deer looked as if it had nothing to do with anything and was eating tender leaves leisurely. There were several other female deer beside it who were also eating and watching the fight, occasionally making a few calls, as if they were evaluating which deer was stronger.

The result was almost obvious: the narcissistic white-rumped deer was defeated, and the deer it fell in love with at first sight became its opponent's bride.

"Lululu~" The narcissistic white-butt deer cried so sadly that it banged its head against the tree trunk.

One side of its horn was broken off. Although the other side was intact, it was in so much pain that it was almost going crazy because its center of gravity was different since only one side was left.

In this situation, as a veterinarian, Chen Ying could not just watch the white-tailed deer hurt itself.

With such a collision, it is very likely that the cervical vertebrae will be broken.

Yin Li started recording the entire process and briefly described the fight that had just taken place, taking a close-up of the antler that had been broken during the fight. Afterwards, Chen Ying took out a multi-purpose knife and prepared to help the white-tailed deer cut off the other antler.

This is different from natural shedding. Before reaching the mature connective period, the antlers are not so easy to fall off. At this time, the help of human tools is indispensable to deal with the broken antlers.

However, it is illegal to cut off deer antlers privately, and human intervention is not allowed unless the antlers have endangered the life of the deer.

The deer had been struggling with its only remaining antler for more than ten minutes. The head was rubbed and bleeding, but it still didn't fall off. There were even several times when the antler got stuck in tree branches and couldn't be pulled out. Chen Ying had to help it pull it out even at the risk of being kicked.

It seemed that it knew that Chen Ying was helping it. When the antlers were being cut, the white-tailed deer did not move. Its big eyes were filled with tears, as if it was regretting why it followed the two two-legged beasts and left the area where they lived alone.

Woo, its horns, its beautiful horns!

Chen Ying and Yin Li tried hard to hold back their laughter, not daring to laugh out loud for fear that the deer would be further devastated.

The broken antlers were cut off and put into a bag. Later, the two antlers will be brought down the mountain and handed over to the forest police for disposal.

"Alright, alright, a real man has no problem with having horns. You're already such a big deer, why are you crying? Your horns will grow back next year, and they may look better than this year. Then you can choose any girl in the herd. How nice."

"Lililil~My horn!"

It would have been better if you didn't try to persuade the deer. The more you persuaded the deer, the louder it cried. Finally, it lowered its head and rushed into the bushes, never to be seen again.

Now that the deer was gone, Chen Ying and Yin Li could finally laugh out loud.

They had to hurry up and go around the place where the deer were standing. If they couldn't reach their destination before dark, they would have to find a place to camp.

After walking for a while, Chen Ying felt something was wrong. He turned back suddenly and saw a frightened deer retreating, hiding behind the bushes and looking at them timidly.

Her big watery eyes are full of curiosity.

This little deer must have been born this year. It is very curious about other creatures. It has never seen a two-legged beast before, so it followed out unconsciously.

"Someone's child is lost, come and take him back."

Chen Ying called out a few times to the back, pretending to drive away the deer.

The frightened deer turned around and ran, but after running a few meters it stopped and looked at him.

Just as Chen Ying was considering whether to send the lost fawn back, a tall adult male deer walked out.

The horns on its head are different from those of other deer. They look like two knives inserted on both sides of its head.

Judging from its appearance, it is probably quite old, probably an experienced elderly stag.

It called out to the deer, lowered its head and drove it back.

The fawn dodged its head and took small steps into the bushes.

The old deer stood there without moving, staring at Chen Ying and Yin Li with its wise eyes. It was not until they walked far away that they could still see the old deer's magnificent antlers when they looked back.

(I have a question, don’t they have cervical spondylosis?) From afternoon to evening, the weather is good, the stars are bright, and you can see them clearly on the road without turning on a flashlight.

They had already entered the alpine grassland, and normally, they would not encounter wild animals unless there were any accidents. Another two kilometers or so would lead them to the mini police station set up by the forest police.

Two kilometers may not sound far, but in high-altitude areas, every meter is a load.

When Chen Ying saw the simple house at the police station, he almost fainted.

"Finally we're here. If we hadn't gotten here, we would have gone out to look for it."

Suowang, the police officer stationed at the station, took the two of them to the fire to keep warm and poured hot water for them to warm up.

Another older policeman, Uncle Hong, brought them some soup and rice that was heated on the stove.

"The soup made from beef bones warms you up."

The two of them gulped down half a pot of rice and finally recovered their breath.

"Uncle Hong, I'll wash the dishes while you take a rest."

Yin Li stopped Uncle Hong and took the initiative to wash the dishes. Chen Ying was responsible for cleaning the table and picking up cow dung to put into the fire.

"It was a bit late when we came down from the mountain. We had planned to find a place to camp and come back at daybreak. But we found that the wind on the grassland was too strong and we didn't have enough supplies to keep warm, so we might as well hurry on."

After walking all day, my feet are numb.

Chen Ying took off her hiking boots and placed them by the stove to warm them, then took out the antlers she had brought down and registered them.

As long as there are photos and videos, they will not be considered to have violated the rules.

"Oh, the size of the deer herd seems to be a little bigger this year. Uncle Hong, look at this deer. Does it look like the one we saw when we patrolled the mountain last year?"

Sowang refers to the old deer that came out last. He has a steady temperament and stable emotions. You can tell at first glance that he is a successful deer with countless offspring.

A stable deer herd means a stable ecology.

They are an important link in the ecological chain, and the beasts on the plateau depend on them to survive the winter!
White-tailed Deer: Politeness?

They didn't chat for too long, as Uncle Hong had already cleaned up the room next door, allowing Chen Ying and Yin Li to rest early.

The next day, it was almost noon when they woke up.

While Yin Li went out to help, Chen Ying turned on the video to contact the teacher and talked about a project that the teacher had participated in before, which was about the monitoring of snow leopards in plateau mountainous areas.

After sending the collected information about snow leopards to the teacher, Chen Ying went out to prepare for some activities.

As soon as I went out, I saw a horse running towards the station.

He was a Tibetan middle-aged man with an anxious expression. Chen Ying could hardly understand what he said. She only heard something about difficult labor.

"It's because the yak that uncle raised had a difficult birth."

Yin Li patted Chen Ying on the shoulder and said, "Get the tools ready. It's your turn to work."

Sure enough, Suowang soon came to find Chen Ying and asked him to help go to the uncle's house to check the situation.

Yaks are important assets for herders. If they die, it means two lives are lost. If calculated in monetary terms, the loss is at least around 10,000 yuan.

Without saying a word, Chen Ying took his medical kit, and Suowang rode his motorcycle and took him to the uncle's house.

The uncle is a nomadic herdsman and lives in a big tent.

The cow was lying powerlessly on the ground in a small pen next to the tent. Her tears had wet the hair on her face and her eyes were almost unfocused.

I have delivered many wild animal births, but this is the first time I have delivered a yak.

Chen Ying encouraged herself, disinfected herself quickly, and entered the pen to comfort and encourage the young mother cow.
