Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 291 If this needs amputation, there won’t be enough room for leg bones in the freezer
A few minutes later, Chen Ying boarded the plane under the guidance of the staff.

Sitting in her seat, Dao Meihua slid the tablet quickly. When she saw Chen Ying coming up, she pulled him and handed the tablet to him.

"This is the information collected by my colleague. I sorted it out for you to take a look. By the way, the main common language in West Africa is French. Do you need a translator?"

"Probably not." Chen Ying touched his nose. "I studied it for a while when I was in high school. I heard there's no big problem. My reading and writing may be a little worse, but I can use a translator."

Dao Meihua glanced at him and tactfully did not ask any further questions.

Chen Ying lowered her head to look at the information, not wanting to explain.

How to explain that the high school he attended had a French friendly school, and he once sat next to a French female classmate for a month, and then they communicated through video for more than two years, but they lost contact after going to college?
Who hasn't had the feeling of being young and admiring?

The information stated that they were going to a national park in West Africa, where Panthera's biology professor was leading a team to investigate a group of West African lions.

"Half a month ago, a female West African lion was injured by poachers while hunting. Although the forest rangers drove those people away, the injured lioness did not allow humans to get close. They had no way to provide timely rescue."

It took three full days to find an opportunity to knock down the other two female lions in the lion group and carry the injured female lion to a safe place for examination.

"The wound was severely festering, and the right front leg bone was broken by the bullet. After taking pictures, it was shown that surgery was necessary to save its life. But before the operation, the doctor said that amputation was necessary. You know, if a lion loses its leg, it will lose the basis for living in the wild."

The population of West African lions has declined sharply, but the situation abroad is different from that in China. There is no strict control of weapons. Although there are anti-poaching regulations and forest rangers patrolling continuously, poaching cannot be stopped at all.

"Professor Carreys' husband, Professor Everett, is also a veterinary expert. He led the rescue work of this West African lion. He hopes to get your help to use Chinese veterinary medicine to solve the problems they are facing."

Chen Ying's face darkened. "You guys agreed to it for me? Without my consent..."

"Excuse me, I didn't agree to this for you. It was a mission assigned by the higher-ups. In addition to you, there are two veterinary experts going with you. You'll be able to see it when you transfer later."

Chen Ying's expression was still not very good. He felt that this was too disrespectful.

"Don't be angry. This will only benefit you and not harm you." Dao Meihua glanced at the pilot and lowered her voice into Chen Ying's ear.

"The main responsibility for this matter lies with another professor. You are just there to gain some experience. The senior leader of your unit personally asked you to go there to gain some experience. Do you understand?"

So, this is a return of favor? He brought Xiao Shen here to gain experience, and the old leader sent him out to gain experience?

He sighed and had to swallow all the greetings he had.

The information Dao Meihua collected for him was very comprehensive, including all the pre-operative examination results. Except for the imaging films, all the available information was attached to the back of the file.

"You can go in here and see the video images. They have uploaded some of them."

When I opened the software, the MRI film clearly marked the injury location.

Chen Ying zoomed in and out of the film and looked at it several times. "This, it's not broken, why do they have to amputate? Is it because of the severe infection?"

Dao Meihua shook her head. She didn't understand medicine, so she told Chen Ying what the veterinarian said.

Chen Ying took the information and read it carefully again, especially the examination results of the bone injury. He analyzed it word by word, and in the end he got the same result, there was no need for amputation at all!
"Are you sure this professor is a famous veterinarian?"

"I'm sure. We in the M Alliance have also cooperated with Panthera, and this professor has provided us with a lot of help."

That's strange, is it really because he is not skilled enough?

"I will be changing planes at the provincial capital airport later. How long will it take me to stay there?"

"Forty minutes to an hour, what do you want to do?"

"Help me find a quiet place. I need to video chat with the teacher to confirm the situation."

Dao Meihua looked at him for half a minute and nodded, "Okay, I'll arrange it. Do you need anything else?"

Pulling out a piece of white paper, Chen Ying quickly wrote down the names of more than a dozen items.

"These are the equipment and herbs needed for treatment. Please help contact them and see if they can take them out."

He is a local dog and has never been abroad, so he doesn't know whether he can take these things on the plane or pass through customs.

Dao Meihua took it and looked at it, then thought for a while, "It should be no problem. I'll make a special application. These equipment and medicines need to be checked in."

"Can't I take it on a private plane? Will it take a lot of time to check it in? These are all necessary for treatment."

"……I try my best."

Dao Meihua puffed out her cheeks. She felt like she had become Chen Ying's assistant.

Miss Dao's action speed was amazing. After getting off the plane, she took Chen Ying directly to a lounge for a video chat, and then she went to contact the matter of medicines and equipment.

"So, my judgment is correct, right, brother?"

It happened that a senior from the orthopedics department was having dinner at the teacher's house. When he received the video call from Chen Ying, he clicked on it and watched it directly.

"What a fake doctor..." Before he could finish his words, he was slapped on the back of his head by the teacher.

"Xiaoying, go and ask clearly whether the person who treated the lion and performed the orthopedic surgery on it are the same person."

Chen Ying slapped her forehead and nodded hurriedly. She turned off the video and called Dao Meihua to ask. She found out that Professor Everett was a veterinary clinical expert, but not responsible for orthopedic treatment. "I was just about to tell you that the orthopedic doctor in charge is from a local hospital. They said that the only option is amputation."

Dao Meihua's voice was also full of weakness. What kind of thing is this? Just cut where the disease is?

Ten minutes later, the other two experts arrived.

"Old Chen, I guessed it should be you."

One of the young men, who didn’t look like a veterinarian at all, rushed over and gave Chen Ying a big hug.

Chen Ying only replied with one word:
The slightly older man on the other side was a famous expert in the industry, a big shot in veterinary internal medicine, only slightly less famous than Chen Ying's teacher, Professor Bai.

However, one of them is in internal medicine and the other is in surgery, so they have no intention of suppressing the other.

"Professor Pang, this is my junior classmate Chen Ying, who is very knowledgeable in orthopedics."

"As Professor Ding's junior, his level is naturally not low."

After saying a polite word, Professor Pang turned to the staff and said that he wanted to take a rest and would be called when it was time to board the plane.

Chen Ying looked at Ding Wen and asked him. The latter smiled and watched Professor Pang leave before pulling Chen Ying to the next lounge to chat.

"There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. Professor Pang is really a very capable person, but he is mainly an authority in animal internal medicine. This time, he and I were invited to attend an academic forum, and we went to Niokolo National Park to help out."

Professor Everett is also an expert in veterinary internal medicine, but his surgical skills are not bad either. Unlike Professor Pang, who has specialized in internal medicine diagnosis and drug development in recent years and has basically never been on the operating table.

"I heard that Professor Everett was originally invited to give the closing lecture, but he declined, so the last special lecture spot fell on him. So, you know."

Chen Ying was just glad that she didn't have to get involved in these things, otherwise she would be annoyed to death.

Ding Wen also knew his character, so he explained it briefly and then changed the topic to other aspects.

I specifically asked about the progress of Chen Ying's current rescue work.

"So now you have to run back and forth?"

"Yeah, there's nothing I can do. I have to do the project and finish my work. I can only run between the two. Fortunately, Xiao Song and Xia Sen are very helpful, and my junior sister is also working hard to collect case data."

"Let me think about it. Maybe I can help you with this. After the matter of West African lions is done, I will contact them to see if they are willing to join your research project. But let me say this in advance. They are very powerful, and the sick animals are not wild animals, but their pets."

Ding Wen smacked his lips and didn't go into detail.

He couldn't reveal someone else's identity without the sick animal's owner's consent.

Chen Ying didn't take it to heart. He pulled Ding Wen aside and asked him about the injured West African lion in detail, and found that the other party didn't know more than he did.

The two discussed the possible problems that might be encountered in clinical treatment and came up with a rough treatment plan.

As for Professor Pang's plan, the other party may not need to discuss it with them.

We arrived at the local hospital outside Niokolo National Park after a long and dusty journey.

The lioness was kept in a small yard converted from a residential building near the hospital, and was cared for and fed by a dedicated person.

"The lion's condition is not very good. I used medicine and the inflammation and ulceration have improved a lot, but there is no way to treat the bones for the time being."

Professor Pang took a look at the film, and his professional ethics prevented him from saying the word "amputation", but he really had no idea how to treat the bone injury.

Ding Wen gave Chen Ying a wink and decided to take on the role of the bad guy himself.

Anyway, it has been a long time since Professor Pang has been disliking him but unable to get rid of him.

Chen Ying stopped Ding Wen and asked the person in charge in fluent French if they could go and see the lioness.

"I am a veterinarian responsible for rescuing wild animals in China. Here is my certificate."

After Chen Ying briefly introduced herself to Professor Everett, she made her request.

"I have dealt with several cases of similar bone injuries, but each animal's condition is different. I don't think it's a serious problem based on the X-ray alone. But since the local doctor said amputation is necessary, there may be symptoms that the X-ray can't reflect."

Ding Wen gave Professor Carris a brief explanation, and the two professors looked at each other. Everett personally led Chen Ying and the others into the courtyard where the lions were kept.

"This is the injured lioness. She is very aggressive. Even though she is very weak, she still refuses to let anyone get close to her. Every time we feed her medicine and treat her, we have to do everything we can."

Because of the big lion's non-cooperation, the wound could not heal for a long time.

If it doesn't heal, it could get worse at any time.

Chen Ying observed for a while and decided to get the lioness's approval before making further plans.

After asking someone for the beef that would be needed for feeding the lion today, Chen Ying changed into protective clothing, carried the basin of meat, and stepped into the lion cage.

Let’s go, I’ll show you how to play with the big lion!
