Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 156 This nest of jackals is quite particular
It's unpleasant to be threatened, but for wild animals, the threat to their lives is their greatest reliance.

"Please move aside and let me pass."

The male jackal let out a low growl, and the others retreated reluctantly, grabbing the ground with their front paws, trying their best to control their instincts.

Chen Ying plucked up the courage to step forward and check on the condition of the female jackal.

The situation is very bad.

Of the three cubs born, two were in better condition, but the smaller one had the amniotic fluid still not licked dry and was a little hypothermic.

Chen Ying took out a towel from her bag, wrapped the cubs in it, then pulled a jackal over and asked it to lie down and hold the towel to keep the cubs warm.

The jackal looked at a loss, and was so frightened that it could only breathe heavily and dared not say a word. It took a long time before it made a short and low sound.

"There's a cub in a difficult birth position, and it's stuck in the birth canal. I have to find a way to get the cub out, but it's definitely not going to survive."

Chen Ying observed for a moment, then looked up and explained to the male jackal who had been staring at him.

"If the cub is not taken out, the female jackal will definitely die."

In the wild, don't even think about opening the abdomen to take out the cubs.

"Save it." The male jackal touched the female jackal's body without hesitation, with a firm and decisive attitude.

It's freezing cold, so don't delay once you've made a decision.

The stuck cub was already dead when it was taken out. Chen Ying put it aside and touched the female jackal's belly, and there was still something inside!

The female jackal had no strength left and her vitality was slipping away.

I took out the medicine box from my bag, which contained three life-saving Chinese medicine pills.

Without much hesitation, he took one and dissolved it in warm water, then lifted the female jackal's head and stuffed the bottle into its mouth, letting it suck hard to replenish its strength.

Perhaps it was the strong maternal instinct, or perhaps it was the obvious effect of the pills, but ten minutes later, the female jackal began to struggle again.

With the help of Chen Ying, the remaining two cubs were born safely, but one of them lived for less than ten minutes before dying like its brother.

After making sure that all the cubs are born, the male jackal takes another young male jackal to find food for the female jackal.

The male jackal, who had been forced by Chen Ying to lie down to keep the cub warm, climbed up tremblingly after Chen Ying took the cub away, and ran to the side, frantically moving his almost frozen body.

Jackals are different from African hyenas. The hierarchy within a jackal group is not that strict. In fact, jackals are a group that loves their children very much. This is reflected in the fact that after hunting, they generally let the cubs eat first, followed by the adult jackals.

Knowing this, Chen Ying dared to let the male jackal lie down to keep the cub warm.

After making sure that the female jackal was out of danger, Chen Ying breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his underwear was wet.

He glanced at the two dead cubs nearby and wanted to take them away and bury them, but he didn't know whether he should do so.

In fact, many wild animals will eat their dead children, especially mother animals that have just given birth. When food is scarce, they have no choice but to make such a cruel choice.

The female jackal was also looking at the two cubs. After a long while, it turned its head away, whimpered a few times, and then lowered its head to lick the children who were drinking milk and sleeping on its belly.

"Take them away, don't leave them behind."

Chen Ying took out a bag, put the two cubs in it and prepared to take them to a suitable place to dig a hole and bury them.

He had no choice but to return to the emergency station in order to dispose of the two cubs harmlessly. He could only make the best choice under the circumstances.

Before he left, the male jackal came back. After watching Chen Ying leave, it lowered its head and rubbed the female jackal's cheek.

Lao Gao was getting so anxious that he was almost unable to bear it and called Yin Li for help, only then he saw Chen Ying coming back with a bag.

"Let's go back to the hot spring. My clothes are all wet. I need to take a bath and change clothes, otherwise I will definitely catch a cold." The monkeys looked at the two people returning in confusion, with a faint smell of blood on their bodies.

The two cubs were buried under the roots of a tree on the rock wall, and stones were used to hold down the turned soil to prevent scavengers from digging up and eating their bodies.

Although this behavior is also part of the natural ecological chain, Chen Ying still feels a little bit reluctant.

After soaking in the hot water, my dizzy head felt a little relieved.

I didn't feel anything when I was delivering the female jackal just now, but now I realized that my whole body was soft.

It was probably the aftereffect of the last jackal attack on the first aid station. He wasn't that nervous when he met the big cats.

But under the gaze of the jackals, his whole body tensed up, and afterwards he felt weak as if he had suffered a serious illness.

After soaking for more than ten minutes, I sat up, put on my clothes, found a place sheltered from the wind and rain, set up the tent, and called Xia Sen and Yin Li to explain the situation. I estimated that I would be back a day or two later.

Lao Gao volunteered to keep watch and let Chen Ying rest first.

The young mother monkey and her baby monkey kept walking around the tent and were very interested in this thing.

It even wanted to get in and feel it for itself, but when it was pulled away by an older female monkey, its face was filled with unhappiness.

After sleeping for three hours, Chen Ying recovered his energy.

The time was not right to continue going up, and the road above was the territory of a pack of jackals, who had just given birth, so they needed to find another way up the mountain.

"I just asked the conservation center, and they said this mountain is the territory of a seven-year-old male giant panda, and the mountain next to it is also its territory."

Lao Gao took out the map and pointed at it. "Let's change direction and go up from here. The infrared point where the caracal was photographed before is also here."

He still has a little selfishness.

When he contacted them, the people at the center told him that a ranger had photographed a bearded vulture here.

The breeding season of the bearded vulture starts almost in December. Now is the early stage of the breeding season. If we are lucky, we may be able to photograph bearded vultures hatching eggs.

It is true that he mainly studies the Green-tailed Pheasant, but that is his true love and he likes more than just this one.

When a fire was lit in the evening, a group of monkeys came to roast chestnuts. There were also three or five little monkeys that had just weaned themselves off the mother's milk. They used Chen Ying's body as a climbing frame for cats, jumping around and making a lot of noise.

Lao Gao, who was also sitting by the fire, had no such worries.

The monkeys carefully kept a distance from him and watched his every move with special vigilance.

The young mother monkey rubbed against Chen Ying and moved closer to him. Then, she started taking the roasted chestnuts from his hand.

I really don’t consider myself an outsider!

The little monkey was probably feeling uncomfortable being pressed by its mother, so it stretched out its thin little paws towards Chen Ying.

No one can resist this cute baby with big eyes.

Chen Ying took the little monkey and put it in her arms, then took out a handful of dried fruits and stuffed them into the little mother's hands.

The little monkey was too young to eat other foods, so he could only watch his mother eat with his fingers in his mouth.

After a while, the young mother monkey was slapped by the old monkey and her body tilted. She reluctantly took the child back from Chen Ying and put it against her chest.

The old monkey looked at Chen Ying unhappily, grinning, as if blaming him for allowing the young female monkey to not take care of her child.

Chen Ying lowered her head guiltily, pretending not to see it.
