Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 98 Do you understand what the bird says?

There is a set of procedures for dealing with the mother monkey's body, which needs to be taken over by the staff of the Gulagou Veterinary Station.

But after Chen Ying's application for treatment and care of the little monkey, the rescue center agreed to let him take the little monkey back to the Jiamugou Rescue Station for further treatment.

As for whether it can be released back into the forest later, it depends on the recovery of the monkey's arm and whether its survival ability can meet the requirements for release into the wild.

You can't just throw a little monkey that can't survive on its own into the forest and leave it there. That's not rescue, that's irresponsible.

Stayed in Gulagou for three days.

Helped the veterinary station treat many injured livestock and several minor wild animals.

These animals are kept in the animal house behind the veterinary station. When their injuries are almost healed, they will be taken up the mountain and released.

"Xiao Chen, Xiao Yin, the road is now open. There's a car going to the rescue center. Do you want to go together?"

Uncle Hong came over to find them. His eyes were bloodshot and his eye bags were dark and big. He looked like he hadn't had much rest for several days. He almost looked like he was possessed without any makeup.

Of course it would be nice to have a ride. But more importantly, they had to take the little monkey back home, and public transportation was not an option. They had to either hire a car or hitchhike.

"That group of bird photography enthusiasts has also helped a lot these days. They have helped take care of more than a dozen injured birds in the mountains. The slightly injured ones have already flown away, and the rest have to be sent to the Bird Research Institute for treatment. This car was rented by that group of enthusiasts. I thought you guys would also like to go, so I mentioned it to them, and they agreed right away."

On the way to the departure point, Uncle Hong told them the whole story.

"I'll introduce you to the leader later. I heard he's very famous in the domestic circle."

Chen Ying did not reject Uncle Hong's kindness, but he was a little nervous about this circle.

It’s nothing else. The previous incident with Zhao Manman made him a little suspicious of the so-called wildlife photographers.

When we arrived at the departure point, we saw a lot of people there. Several young men were busy assembling cages in the carriage.

Because there are different types of birds, they must be packed separately and certain protective measures must be taken, otherwise a fight between a bird of prey and a cute bird might just be a matter of a claw.

The car was a small double-row truck. Two staff members from the photography team were arranged to go to the Bird Research Institute with us, and there was also a deputy team leader who also had to go there to explain the situation.

With Chen Ying and Yin Li, the two rows of seats were a bit cramped.

Yin Li was just about to suggest that he take the bus and let Chen Ying go with them when he heard someone calling his name.

I looked up and saw an acquaintance!

"Brother? Why are you here?"

The person who greeted Yin Li was a technical consultant of the photography team, who was a senior of Yin Li during his graduate school years.

However, the two of them did not have much time to interact with each other. When he was in the first year of graduate school, his senior was already preparing his graduation thesis and going out into the field every day, so the two met no more than ten times.

"When Officer Hong mentioned it before, I guessed it was you. Everyone in the group said that you went to Jiamugou to be a forest ranger after graduation. How is it going? Have you found the meaning of your life?"

Yin Li smiled and didn't respond.

The senior brother tactfully changed the subject, "This is Doctor Chen, right? It's widely said in our circle that you are a modern druid. There is no wild animal you can't communicate with. I want to ask, can you communicate with birds?"

Is this looking for trouble or a joke?

Chen Ying glanced at Yin Li, then smiled at the senior brother and said, "There is no such thing as a druid. I just have a better affinity with animals. Senior brother, are you asking me this because you want my help with something?"

There were outsiders in the car, but the senior brother didn't say anything. He just asked for Chen Ying's contact information and said he would contact him after the team he led finished the trip.

It took nearly three hours to walk from Gulagou to Jiamugou.

We experienced seven or eight mudslides along the way.

After emergency repairs, the road is basically passable, but only one side is allowed to pass, and cars must drive in the middle of the road to prevent the soil at the edge from loosening and collapsing.

The repaired road must be uneven, so cars with higher chassis can pass through carefully. But they also saw a lot of cars with lower chassis lined up, and I really don’t know how they plan to drive through...

Leaving the Gulugou area, the mountains are not so steep. There are also small mudslides along the way, but the impact is not great.

There are personnel on duty in each area to check the mountain conditions at any time, and traffic police and local officials are on duty to provide directions to foreign tourists.

They arrived at the Bird Research Institute at around five in the afternoon.

The Bird Research Institute was not far from the rescue center, so the office arranged a tram to take them to the rescue center.

As soon as he got off the car, Chen Ying went straight to the medical area.

He was holding the little monkey in his arms and was nervous all the way, fearing that the little guy would have a stress reaction.

"Hey, the busy man is here?"

Nanny Mei was the first to see him. She made a teasing remark and then saw the monkey with half of its face exposed in his arms.

"Where did you get this little fellow? Let me hold him."

Nanny Mei mainly focuses on panda cubs, but is also liked by other cubs. She is the kind of person who is forcibly hung all over as soon as she enters the nursery.

"It was rescued by tourists from Gulagou. Its mother is gone, and it's the only monkey left."

"Poor little thing." Nanny Mei touched it but didn't force it to take her in.

This little fellow who has lost his parents is most afraid of leaving his familiar environment. He has been hiding in Chen Ying's arms, treating him as his own relative.

If we forcibly take it away now, the little guy might struggle violently, causing great physical harm to it.

I held the little monkey in my arms and went through a full set of examinations. Some results won’t be available until tomorrow.

But from the photo of the broken arm, we can see that the reduction is going well. We just need to keep it fixed and wait for the wound to heal.

The little monkey is very young and well-behaved. It doesn't move around at all and recovers quickly.

"You take the little monkey up the mountain and take care of him." Sister Dai pinched the bridge of her nose. "There have been frequent mountain torrents and earthquakes recently. The center has already received a batch of rescued animals, and they haven't recovered yet and released them back home. Now another batch has been sent in, and there is simply no staff to take care of them."

Only in the afternoon had a batch of animals whose injuries had been treated been sent to nearby zoos and other rescue bases for recuperation. Even so, the center had no spare animal houses or staff.

"We sent a batch of small animals up from the mountain. Currently, Xia Sen, Duanmu and the student intern are in charge. I think they can't hold on any longer. You should hurry up and let them catch their breath."

No one could have predicted that things would come together.

Sister Dai was still in shock. When she heard about the accident in Gulagou, she was worried about the safety of Chen Ying and Yin Li. She was able to put her mind at ease and deal with her work only after she received the call reporting that they were safe.

It’s not that no one in the center was complaining about Chen Ying’s trip up the mountain, and Director Bai criticized her directly without naming her at the general staff meeting.

Looking at the man's red and white face, she felt relieved.

"The quarterly work summary report is due in October, and the first draft of this year's wildlife resource monitoring report is also due. How is your project going? Do you need an extension?"

"No, no, I'm almost done with the first phase of my project. I'll hand in the phase report later. Can you please help me take a look, Sister Dai?"

"What am I looking at? Go find your real teacher, or at worst, ask your real teacher's real brother for help. Don't cause trouble for me. I'm already annoyed."

Sister Dai drove the man away and continued to work.

Don’t think that office work is easy. Who wouldn’t get a headache after reading all those reports?

Chen Ying closed the door quietly and rushed to the food area holding the little monkey.

"Come on, brother will take you to eat something delicious!"
