Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 186 Restless Season, Restless Heart

"Old Chen, Old Chen, are you going to take care of it or not?"

Lao Gao's angry voice made Chen Ying confused.

"What's the matter? I don't care. You have to explain it clearly."

"Look at your Jinya and Xiaojin. Ah, catching birds, catching birds. They only know how to catch birds. Can't they be more ambitious and catch rabbits and mice? Birds are so cute, how can they do that?"

"Rabbits are cute too. Please don't be so malicious towards them, okay? Besides, it's the nature of cats to pounce on birds."

Lao Gao was so angry that he grabbed Chen Ying's neck and shook it hard several times.

When Jin Ya saw Chen Ying coming down, she ran over shaking her head.

"Oh, let me tell you, I found a big bird's nest with eggs in it! Slurp (￣ ii￣;)"

Chen Ying grabbed Jin Ya's ear and pulled her aside.

"Sister Ya, can we make a deal? If you and Xiao Jin want to catch a bird, run farther away, where that person can't see you. Otherwise, he will cry in front of you."

Jin Ya looked up at Lao Gao, then ran over with a look of evil interest, put her claws on him, and stared into his eyes for a long time.

"Aw, there's no water running down his face!"

Chen Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He rubbed Jin Ya's head hard and told her to go play somewhere else.

In fact, Jinya and Xiaojin are not very interested in birds. At most, they just play with them out of curiosity. After all, birds are small, with little meat and a lot of hair. They are not delicious food for cats.

On the contrary, he was more worried about his own cute little mongoose. This little guy's diet consists of the words "rat and bird" in capital letters.

Before I knew it, I looked up and saw the little cutie moving stealthily on the tree, and its target was a little bird resting on the trunk.

(I almost lost my life in the sun)

Chen Ying's eyes suddenly widened, and he quickly whistled to call the mongoose down.

This bird is a mountain tree creeper. Although it is not a national protected species, it is also one of the three protected species.

More importantly, Chen Ying had seen the case files on Lao Gao's desk. There was a small project in their research that was to study the alpine tree creeper.

When the mongoose heard Chen Ying's cry, it gave up the little bird, rushed down quickly, and in a few seconds jumped onto his shoulder and lay down.

Only then did Lao Gao notice the woodpecker. He put one hand on his chest and made an exaggerated expression as if he was about to have a heart attack and faint.

They are all engaged in wildlife conservation. How could Lao Gao really be angry with Chen Ying just because of the law of competition in nature?

Just like what he said to Chen Ying, as long as it didn't happen under his nose, he wouldn't feel that much pain.

Chen Ying gently touched the mongoose's little head with her fingertips and told it to go find mountain rats to eat.

Spring is coming, everything is reviving, and the number of mountain mice is also increasing terrifyingly.

He just discovered yesterday that some mountain rats had run into the warehouse and were causing trouble, so he wanted to tell Xiao Jin and the others to stop running around and to clean up the surrounding area more often.

The mongoose obediently went to find Shushu. Chen Ying and Xia Sen planned to take out the things in the warehouse and dry them in the sun while the weather was good.

Although it has been treated, it is a wooden house after all, so after a winter, the damp places will still be damp.

Lao Gao also came to help. While Chen Ying and Xia Sen were cleaning the warehouse, he went to tidy up the two vacant animal sheds.

Sweep the stone platform and wooden frame clean with a bamboo broom, and flush the areas that need to be flushed with water.

There weren't many things in the warehouse. They found a bag of sweet potatoes from the corner. They didn't know who had put it there, and some of them had been gnawed by rats.

The place where Dabai sleeps in winter also needs to be cleaned. The wooden platform is almost patinated by it.

In the afternoon, Dabai's family of four came back staggering.

As soon as the two little ones came back, they pounced on Xia Sen skillfully, humming and asking for delicious food.

As soon as Xia Sen saw the two little ones, all he could think about was “babies need to eat, babies need to drink”. He threw down his food and ran to get a basin of milk and steamed steamed buns.

Chen Ying packed up the last few things, walked over and touched the two little ones' ears, checking for any injuries or insect bites.

Fortunately, although Dabai and Jiaojiao, the couple, are greedy, they take good care of their cubs.

Apart from the fact that Leo has developed a hobby of coal mining, the little cub is still a fair and clean little prince.

"Mee mee, Two-legged beast, let me tell you, besides the one with big ears, there are a few more cats around here, so you have to be careful." Jiaojiao rarely spoke and pulled Chen Ying with a worried look on her face.

"I won't take them out for the time being. Those male cats want to hurt them. I'll call Dabai to go out for a walk and see how many cats are coming to make friends."

Jiaojiao's worries are not without reason.

Leo and the cub are not yet old enough to leave their mother and live independently, so Jiaojiao will not go into heat prematurely.

But other male cats are different. They may drive away kittens or even kill them in order to mate.

Fortunately, there is Dabai here, and a big-eared Xiongxiong who has no interest in love and only wants to eat melons.

There is no competitiveness between the two. If they work together, they can basically ensure that this place will not be harassed by other estrus male cats.

Spring is such a restless season.

Even though the ice and snow on the mountains have not melted yet, the warm currents hidden under the ice have begun to revive.

Chen Ying was actually very worried about Jin Ya.

The female lynx has reached the age for mating, but there is always Xiao Jin by her side. She is worried. If the two really start to have sexual intercourse, will they be able to have the next generation?

It's terrible, I must get rid of this idea!

He also mentioned this issue when he was at his teacher's house during the Chinese New Year.

What the teacher means is to let nature take its course.

It is obvious that these two have not yet been controlled by instinct. As long as they follow their instinct once, they will naturally separate.

Chen Ying was very conflicted. He hoped that both little ones could have offspring of their own bloodline, but he also didn't want to see the day when they would actually go their separate ways.

This old father's mentality is not good.

She was afraid that her daughter would be deceived by Huang Mao, and she was also worried that Huang Mao would not want her daughter and make her sad.

Jin Ya was not as complicated as he thought.

It even came to find Chen Ying and shared with him the gossip that Xiao Jin and Da Jin were favored by three golden cat girls.

"Those three are pretty good. Their fur is very colorful, prettier than mine. But they are skinny, as if they haven't eaten enough."

Jin Ya lay on the floor in front of the bed, howling softly.

"One of them liked Xiao Jin very much and wanted to bite me and chase me away. Xiao Jin helped me beat it."

Chen Ying had a complicated expression on her face.

"The other two liked Xiao Jin before, but later they switched their focus to Da Jin. I saw that Da Jin was very proud of himself, catching rabbits and rats for them every day. Humph, he has bad intentions!"

No, this is the normal courtship attitude of a male cat!
As he was talking, he heard Xiao Jin calling from outside, "Jin Ya, come out and eat the rabbit."

"Oh, right away, wait a minute and I'll be there."

As soon as he heard the word rabbit, Jin Ya shook his fur immediately and ran out to enjoy his midnight snack in high spirits.

This little guy has now learned to open the door by himself. He stands up, puts his paw on the door handle, and pushes hard, and the door opens.

Xiao Jin doesn't like to go through the door. He likes to lie on the windowsill the most. He can push the window open with just a few pulls of his nimble claws.

The two little ones also know that they cannot eat on the platform because it will dirty the floor.

So their nearest midnight snack table is on a nearby big tree branch, where there is just enough space for them to squat.

While I was eating, a clouded leopard jumped over.

"Hey, Twolegs, where's the girlfriend you promised me? When will you find her?"

Oh no, the creditor is here to collect the debt.

There have been some chores these past two days. The tiles and water pipes in my old house were damaged by the bamboo that fell from the slope behind the house. Now half of the house is leaking. I need to contact someone to come and repair it as soon as the weather clears up.

Now I can only guarantee normal updates every day, and I will make up for it two days later. I will definitely not forget.
