Chapter 423 Wild South China Tiger (two chapters in one)

While Qin Zhendong was talking to Lin Li.

Northeast of the Qinling Mountains.

In a signal car at the junction of a certain mountain forest and a highway, a group of people wearing wild hunting uniforms were gathered in front of a monitoring screen.

They were whispering and blushing, looking like they were watching a movie together in a college dormitory.

At this moment.

All you can see is the center of the screen.

"Roar--"

Puff, puff —

With a huge orange paw snapping down.

Several wild birds immediately flew up in panic and fled in all directions.

But the owner of the orange paws has no intention of letting them go.

Just hearing a beast's roar that echoed through the mountains and forests, a somewhat fat but extremely agile orange figure suddenly rose into the sky.

Press down with one claw,

Hold it in one mouthful,

One tail sweep.

Three simple actions.

Then he knocked the three unlucky ones into the mud and died.

After a while.

This figure fell heavily to the ground.

Viewed from the front, this is a big cat. Wrong, a giant tiger!

In the signal car, I watched this scene captured by a drone.

An old expert in his fifties couldn't help but lick his tongue, and the hands holding his glasses were trembling:

“Perfect, so perfect!

Look at that look, that texture, that fat little belly.

I didn't expect it. I didn't expect it.

Before I retire, I, an old man, can actually see a living person.

Wild South China tiger! "

Hear this.

Several young students who looked like students around the old expert also nodded in agreement.

The old armor in the tent is called Cui Xiaofeng. He is fifty-two years old and is a professor at the Academy of Biological Sciences of Xi'an Jiaotong University.

Although he is not a department-level boss like Lin Li.

However, since he specializes in the field of large wild animals, his experience is not inferior to Lin Li's.

Actually.

This type of expert is actually the norm in life.

They are between ordinary professors and top authorities. They are the backbone of a college - academicians and academicians. Even students from key universities may not often see them.

Not so long ago.

Cui Xiaofeng and several graduate students he led suddenly received a transfer order:

They were asked to rush to Zhongzhou from the Daxingan Mountains to participate in a large-scale comprehensive outdoor exploration mission.

Cui Xiaofeng and others are not too surprised by this - this kind of mission happens every year, and some provinces even often take the initiative to invite some experts to conduct joint exploration.

For example, the official account of China Geography has organized several activities every three days in recent years.

For example, the location of the recent organization was Qionghai Province, and thousands of invitations were sent out.

Well, that's right.

It’s just pure team building, so I didn’t discover anything.

Ahem

All in all.

Cui Xiaofeng was not surprised by this kind of task, and quickly rushed back with his students.

After contacting the person in charge, Cui Xiaofeng’s team was quickly assigned a task:

According to certain orientation requirements, conduct detailed biological sampling and exploration of an area.

They were also joined by a geography team and an archeology team, and the signal was blocked throughout the process.

Geography, humanities, and biology all in one.

This is a standard ‘Emperor Ku’ level project.

It's just that Cui Xiaofeng doesn't know how many three-in-one modules there are.

In the beginning, everything was uneventful and uneventful.

But when the search target came near Mount Wei in the eastern section of the Qinling Mountains, a graduate student led by Cui Xiaofeng suddenly discovered a footprint.

This footprint had obvious tiger characteristics, and it quickly attracted Cui Xiaofeng's attention.

So Cui Xiaofeng and others continued to search along the relevant footprints while reporting the news.

The result was unexpected.

After searching and searching, I actually found the tiger that appeared at the beginning.

That is one.

Wild South China tiger!

Wild South China tiger.

These five words are enough to explain it all.

Unlike the famous Northeast orange cat, the South China tiger is undoubtedly much more rare.

There are currently 165 South China tigers in the country.

Among them, there are 79 males, 84 females, and 2 tiger cubs whose gender is unknown.

Now these 165 South China tigers are all descendants of 6 South China tigers, that is, the products of close relatives.

The reason for this situation is the extinction of South China tigers in the wild.

That's right.

Extinction!

According to pedigree records, no confirmed wild South China tiger has been found in the mainland for more than 40 years—not even a carcass has been found.

Older readers may remember a name:

Zhou Zhenglong.

This person took a photo of a wild South China tiger in 2007 and received a local commendation award. At that time, it caused an uproar on the Internet.

In the end, the authorities intervened and discovered that the photos were taken directly from extracted tiger paintings and placed in the jungle, deceiving the feelings of countless people.

Zhou Zhenglong was imprisoned because of this, and he was the first person to be convicted of "copycat fraud".

Currently in China.

Anyone who finds a photo of a South China tiger, whether it's footprints, feces or hair, can get a reward of at least 1,000 yuan.

And as long as you can take photos of living South China tigers, you can get a reward of more than 100,000 yuan - in 2007 it was 20,000 yuan, and in 2015 the Wildlife Research Institute of Beilin University increased it to 100,000 yuan.

But it's a pity.

As of now, there are still no traces of wild South China tigers found in the mainland.

Who could have imagined the result.

At the end of the Qinling Mountains, such a very healthy South China tiger was discovered?

For large wildlife researchers like Cui Xiaofeng, this is undoubtedly a dream come true!

Seeing such a wild South China tiger is basically the same as seeing the paper-figure wife come true in the second dimension. It can be called a dream come true.

To put it bluntly.

Even if you tell Cui Xiaofeng to die now, he can rest in peace - the kind who will even take the initiative to cover his coffin tightly.

Just when Cui Xiaofeng and others were in shock.

frame--

The door of the signal car was suddenly opened from the outside.

After a while.

A man in his thirties walked in, clasping his hands together and sighing as he walked:

"Professor Cui, are you busy?"

"Oh, it's Director Zhu. We are observing the movements of the target South China tiger."

Cui Xiaofeng greeted the visitor politely and motioned to his assistant to pour him a cup of hot water.

Director Zhu is the general person in charge of their exploratory operation and is also responsible for various daily scheduling matters.

The specific position is unknown, and his age and name are also unclear.

All in all, the background seems to be quite big, and some links along the way can be solved in just one sentence.

Then Director Zhu walked to the table, looked at the screen that continuously monitored South China tigers, and asked:

"Professor Cui, have you discovered anything new these days?"

Cui Xiaofeng hesitated for a few seconds and said uncertainly:

"There are no new discoveries, but Xiao Chen and I analyzed some information and found that something seems not quite right."

"oh?"

Director Zhu suddenly became interested and asked:

"Professor Cui, what's the problem?"

Cui Xiaofeng thought for a while, turned around and said to the person next to him:

"Xiao Chen, please find the biology report we checked this morning and give it to me."

The Xiao Chen that Cui Xiaofeng mentioned was a graduate student under his supervision. After receiving the order, he lowered his head and rummaged through the database for a few times, and quickly found the corresponding document.

Then he pushed the notebook in front of Cui Xiaofeng:

"Teacher, all the information is here."

Cui Xiaofeng nodded, pointed at the screen and said:

"Director Zhu, this is a survey report on the density of ungulates in the nearby area. The statistics were collected in March last year.

According to the report.

The number of ungulate density measurements within the surrounding 120 square kilometers was 168 using the transect method and 237 using the transect method.

Let us use the latter as an example.

In other words, there are a total of 237 cephalopods in an area of ​​12 kilometers x 10 kilometers.

This density of ungulates is simply not enough to support one tiger. This situation is also the most favorable argument supporting the extinction of wild South China tigers.

But look at what this South China tiger looks like.

Not only is it not starving, but the food seems to be quite good?

With his bulging belly, Xiao Chen and the others still call him Fat Man. "

Hearing what Cui Xiaofeng said.

Director Zhu thought for a while, pointed at the South China tiger eating wild birds on the screen and said:

"Professor Cui, is it possible that there are more birds nearby, so it has more abundant food sources?"

"No way."

Cui Xiaofeng shook his head seriously and said:

“It is absolutely impossible for wild South China tigers to survive by preying on birds.

It must have enough sources of meat.

Take away the feathers and bones of a bird like the one in the video, and even thirty of them may not be enough for a South China tiger to eat.

The forest environment in the nearby area is indeed good, but it is impossible for South China tigers to prey on more than a hundred birds every day.

To put it bluntly.

The energy a bird can provide may not be comparable to the consumption of bird hunting.

Its nature of eating wild birds is similar to us eating melon seeds or ice cream, mainly to relieve boredom.

It is almost impossible to survive on this for a long time. There are 100% other sources of energy. "

Then Cui Xiaofeng paused and looked hesitant:

"One more thing is..."

"Just what?"

"There seems to be something wrong with this South China tiger's physical condition."

Director Zhu blinked:

"Physical fitness? What do you mean by this?"

Cui Xiaofeng pointed to a student near the corner and said:

“This situation was first discovered by Xiao Zheng, and we didn’t pay much attention to it at first.

Later, based on the comparison images, we found that this South China tiger was much stronger than the ordinary South China tiger in terms of size and other aspects.

Director Zhu, you may not be sure.

The South China tiger is smaller in size and is one of the smallest subspecies of tigers.

A male tiger is only 2.5 meters long from head to tail and weighs about 150 kilograms.

But based on our observations.

The body length of this male tiger may be close to 3.5 meters, and the weight restored from the paw prints may not be less than 300 kilograms.

To know.

The largest Siberian tiger discovered so far is only three meters long.

In addition, its bounce and agility are also somewhat abnormal.

how to say

It's like changing your ears this time, just like O'Neal won the men's 100m sprint, with speed and flexibility that are completely different from his body size. "

After hearing these words, Director Zhu was stunned.

Then his expression gradually became serious.

It is different from Professor Cui who is half physical and half social.

Director Zhu's full name is Zhu Yuhao, and his real position is a director of the Core General Affairs Office.

Not only did he know about the existence of the Great Mo Realm, he had even spent several months in the Great Mo Realm.

So when Professor Cui mentioned the abnormal food intake of South China tigers.

He naturally thought of the command's previous judgment on Qinling.

A South China tiger whose size, sensitivity, and food sources defy known rules

Could it be related to extraordinary power or aura?

Think of this.

He thought about it and said to Cui Xiaofeng:

"Professor Cui, please continue to follow up on the movements of this South China tiger.

I will leave a small team of service personnel to assist you in your work.

In addition, I will tell the logistics department that your team's drones and tracking equipment are available 24 hours a day.

If you encounter special circumstances, you can contact the front end at any time. "

Professor Cui was stunned when he heard this, and said hurriedly:

"Director Zhu, aren't you going to try to capture such a wild South China tiger under anesthesia?

The surrounding mountains and forests are dense. If it gets into any nook and cranny at night, we will probably lose it.

Even if it is just to capture and sample the animals and then release them, that would be fine.

There are more than 80 female South China tigers in the country. How about saving some sperm? "

As a leading expert on wildlife.

Cui Xiaofeng is naturally not the kind of narrow-minded person who wants to load an anesthetic needle when he sees a specimen in the wild, knock him out and stuff it into a zoo to sell tickets.

over the past ten years.

He had observed many rare wild animals, but in the end he just watched them go away.

But this time is different.

The South China tiger discovered this time may be the only wild South China tiger sample in the country today!

Mentioned before.

The Siberian tigers bred in captivity in China are all inbred, and are all descendants of six South China tigers.

This approach is obviously unhealthy for a population and is very risky and harmful.

But before, we had no choice but to do this.

Nowadays, it is rare to find a wild South China tiger. If you don’t catch it and contribute something, it will be useless.

This is somewhat unreasonable.

And as long as it can successfully enter the "field", there will be more than 80 tigresses with different styles for you to pick.

Moreover, as Cui Xiaofeng said.

The surrounding area is densely forested and the geographical conditions are very complex.

It’s true that the rabbits have high-definition cameras.

But if the other party suddenly runs away at night, it is actually not easy to find traces - there are so many precedents for this.

For example, the Asian elephant in the previous paragraph.

Such a large size is still a whole colony, and the rabbits often lose sight of each other.

Therefore, Cui Xiaofeng's opinion is not very selfish, and can even be said to be a very practical idea.

However, Director Zhu did not accept this opinion. After all, the perspectives and starting points of the two parties were completely different.

I saw him making a calm gesture:

"Professor Cui, don't worry.

We now have a special method that can track each other in real time to ensure that we will not lose sight.

It's just that we don't know much about the habits of this beast, so you will need to work harder in the next period of time. "

Zhu Yuhao said this very casually, as casually as asking the boss to get a plastic bag after buying something in a small shop.

But only those who have truly come into contact with the relevant secrets can understand what the ‘means’ he refers to are:

The spiritual tracking of practitioners.

There are currently close to 500 warriors above the fourth level of Qi training in the camp, and any number of them can be brought back to complete relevant tasks.

Although the consumption of local spiritual power is a little faster than that of the Great Mo Realm.

But after all, it is just tracking the target regularly, and the consumption of spiritual power and spiritual thoughts is not as terrible as opening the space bag.

With the help of elixirs, it is not difficult to lock down a fat house tiger.

As for giving the follow-up authority to Cui Xiaofeng, this is also a helpless move.

Just like Zhu Yuhao said.

When it comes to large creatures like the South China tiger, professionals like Cui Xiaofeng must be involved.

After all, as an ordinary person, you really can't judge some biological information from the image.

In addition, Cui Xiaofeng and the others were not alone in the entire search mission—this operation was described to the outside world as a very large-scale census of virgin forest species, involving thousands of scientific researchers of various types.

By the way, videos are also selectively posted on websites like PiLiPiLi.

Therefore, until this South China tiger shows clear extraordinary abilities, official spiritual forces will not easily take over.

After assigning relevant tasks.

Zhu Yuhao suddenly thought of something.

He glanced at the round belly of the South China tiger in the video and said:

"As for the name of this observation target"

"I think it's called Fat Tiger!"

Note:

Although today’s update is one, it’s more than two.

The good news is that I don’t have a cold. The bad news is that I still feel dizzy and feel like I might catch a cold at any time.
