Chapter 403: Rhino horn

After explaining the sleeping behavior of the rhinoceros, Liu Wei said to Rama: "We can now lean on slowly!"

Rama nodded, he couldn't wait any longer.

The two walked along the shore of the swamp to where Cook was sleeping.

The Indian rhino sleeps for a long time every day, and its quality of sleep is very high. After taking a bath, apply mud to prevent mosquito bites and fall asleep when lying down.

Liu Wei and Rama's approach did not disturb it, it slept soundly.

There was a deep love in Rama's eyes. He crouched beside Cook and stared blankly at Cook, who smiled.

"Brothers, while the rhino is asleep, let me add some knowledge about the Indian rhino."

Liu Wei moved to Cook's head to shoot and preached: "The Indian rhinoceros is the world's largest single-horned rhinoceros, and only one horn grows on its nose, while the head of subspecies such as the African rhinoceros grows. Two rhino horns, one long and one short.

Many viewers should be very interested in rhino horns. I think in your impressions, you must think that rhino horns are its weapons?"

"Huh? Isn't it?"

"Don't bovines always use horns as weapons?"

Liu Wei smiled and said: "First of all, correct a common sense problem. Indian rhinoceros belong to rhinoceros. There are four genera and five species of rhinoceros. They are the world’s largest genus of odd-hoofed animals. They are not related to bovines. There is a bull character in the name, it is considered to belong to the bovid family."

"Laughing and crying, I always thought that rhinos are a kind of bovids!"

"Increase knowledge, remember well, don't lose face next time!"

"Awkward, I remember, rhinos are not cattle!"

Liu Wei went on to say: "We continue to talk about rhino horns. When Indian rhinos are fighting, rhino horns are actually not weapons that we use to win. They rely on physical strength to hit opponents or use ivory to bite opponents. Usually the wound formed by two rhinos fighting is on the edge of the ear or sideways.

Therefore, researchers in the reserve often see rhinoceros with missing ears, which were bitten by opponents during the battle.

When confronting each other, their heads did not collide head-to-head, but leaned against each other with their necks wrapped around their necks.

Rhino horns are basically not very useful in fighting.

Many people will intuitively guess that the rhino horn is very hard. In fact, its main ingredient is protein, so it will not be too hard, and the hardness of the horn is similar.

Through the analysis of the chemical composition of Indian rhino horn by infrared spectrometer, x-ray fluorescence spectrometer and other instruments, we can know that the main inorganic components of rhino horn are CaO, Fe2, O3, K2O, ZnO, SiO2, etc., the amino acid content is 481.01mg/ g, rich in medicinal amino acids, the closeness of amino acid composition to standard protein is 0.74!"

"????"

"Cry, what are you talking about?"

"Can you speak people?"

"The high school education indicates that you can understand a little bit!"

"Are there any doctors studying in the live room to translate!"

Looking at the scrolling barrage, Liu Wei can infer that the audience watching the live broadcast at this moment are all in a state of dull expression.

He smiled and said: "It seems that I can't tell you that it is too professional. If you are familiar with it, the rhino horn has high nutritional value!"

"Right, things that can be summarized in one sentence, say something that is not, really, hey, the anchor needs to improve his expressive ability!"

Liu Wei smiled embarrassedly, thinking: Grandma, do you understand why you blame me?

Shaking his head, he sighed secretly. He was too cultured and was rejected by others. He continued to preach: "It is because of the medical value of rhino horn that indirectly caused the contradiction between Indian rhinoceros and human beings. The main reason is that, in addition to the Asian elephants, its largest natural enemy is human beings.

The primary purpose of killing rhinos by humans is for rhino horns. Poachers hunt rhinos to sell rhino horns. In Arab countries, rhino horns are regarded as social-level symbols. In Yemen and Oman, they are used to make ceremonial dagger handles. People It will cruelly cut the rhino horns with a saw.

This is the main reason for the sharp decline in the number of rhinos in India at the end of the last century!"

The barrage slowed down.

The audience was silent for a moment.

They don't know what to say. It seems that one of the main reasons for the extinction of every creature on the earth is that human beings are seeking benefits.

Before hearing this, the audience will be angry, curse those rampant poachers, and sympathize with endangered animals. Today, the audience in the live broadcast room has some sympathy for humans.

Liu Wei could feel the mood of the audience from the barrage atmosphere in the live broadcast room. He smiled and said: "Brothers, what happened in the past has been irreversible. Fortunately, all countries in the world are now trying their best to go To compensate for the serious ecological problems caused by the past, Cook in front of us is twenty-five years old, and I think it can also feel the change in human attitudes towards them!"

Although Rama does not understand Chinese, he can feel Liu Wei's love for wild animals from Liu Wei's tone.

He turned to look at Liu Wei with a kind look at Cook and smiled, indicating that he felt Liu Wei's attitude.

Liu Wei returned to the topic of popular science and preached: "Brothers, in addition to rhino horns, the most interesting thing about Indian rhinos lies in their mouths!"

Focus on Cook's exhaling mouth.

The upper lip is significantly longer and sharper than the lower lip, and it protrudes a lot.

"The huge body of the Indian rhinoceros determines its food requirements. I have mentioned before that its life is similar to the national panda, the national treasure of our country. Very large, it can rely on its soft forefoot to grab the food and crush the food to improve the efficiency of eating and ensure the calorie needs of physical activity.

The Indian rhinoceros, which is several times the size of a giant panda, does not have a soft forefoot. It can only rely on its lips to improve the efficiency of eating. Its upper lip is very flexible and can play the role of a hand. The bale of grass swallowed into the mouth with the chewing of the lower lip.

Wait for Cook to wake up after a while, and it should be eating grass. I will show it to everyone at a close distance, it will be more intuitive!" Liu Wei said carefully.

Cook was sleeping deeply, and was not affected by Liu Wei's voice. Instead, the heavy snorting sound from it continuously passed into the live phone, and the audience couldn't stand it.

Liu Wei had to stand up and walked to its back to make the live phone slightly away from Cook's mouth and nose.

Liu Wei couldn't help but reach out and touched the armor where the Indian rhinoceros' legs and body joined. The raised bag on the armor was very hand-feeling, and it was a feeling of massaging the palm with a little stroking.

"Great!" Rama touched the same, he said to Liu Wei.

He was familiar with Cook's body. Stroking Cook's body brought him more than comfort in the hand, but also a playback of memory. He couldn't help reminding him of the time when he just knew Cook.

He was looking forward to it, looking forward to Cook's ability to recognize him after waking up and re-establish a strong friendship.
