I have a wildlife zoo

Chapter 247 Who is More Fierce?



The next day.

Because Fang Ye had mentioned that he would livestream a wild boar today, when the live broadcast started, there were considerably more netizens tuning in than usual.

He greeted the viewers with a wave and a cheerful, "Hello everyone!"

"Hello, Zookeeper!"

"Zookeeper, where's the milk tea boar?" a netizen immediately asked impatiently.

"So impatient, alright, I'll show you the wild boar first." Fang Ye gestured for Lan Li to turn the camera toward the enclosure.

This was an enclosure of several dozen square meters. The specifications of enclosures in the rescue area varied, with this one being made of sturdier metal mesh, while those for birds were made of softer nets.

The ground was covered with a layer of soil, some weeds, and small twigs, as well as a few round logs. Two bare tree stumps were placed in the middle and corners of the enclosure as scratching posts and shelters for the wild boar. In truth, they didn't provide much cover, but they offered some psychological comfort.

The soil had been laid out beforehand, and the bedding materials such as weeds and twigs, along with the enrichment tree trunks inside, were all hastily arranged after the wild boar was brought back yesterday.

A black wild boar was in the enclosure, its fur black and appearing tough and coarse, unlike domestic pigs that looked pinkish-white and tender.

Hiding behind a tree stump in the corner, it blinked its small eyes, looking somewhat nervous and uneasy.

After all, it had been injected with an anesthetic the day before and the feeling of losing control of its body was terribly unpleasant. Even though it woke up and found itself unharmed, it was still somewhat fearful and anxious!

"Is this the wild boar? It doesn't look much different from a domestic pig. I thought it would have long tusks."

"The milk tea wild boar that shook the martial world is just so-so!"

"It looks quite timid; I thought wild boars were supposed to be fierce?"

"Haha, all bark and no bite, it can't show off anymore after being caught!"

"Why did the wild boar run into the city?" "Zookeeper, is wild boar meat edible?" the netizens asked in a cacophony.

To be honest, the wild boar looked quite ordinary—almost like a domestic pig that had simply donned a "wild boar warrior" skin. It lacked the majestic presence of lions or tigers and wasn't as cute as other furry animals. Enjoy more content from empire

So after the netizens had a clear look at the true face of the milk tea wild boar, satisfying their curiosity, their attention shifted to a series of discussions generated on Weibo from the day before. News of wild boars entering cities had been seen from time to time over the years, but none had as much impact as this incident.

They truly had many questions! After all, this was an event closely related to their own lives.

Fang Ye glanced at the barrage of comments and said with a smile, "So many questions, don't worry, I'll answer them one by one! Today's live broadcast is specifically to clear up your doubts!"

Hearing this, the netizens calmed down a bit and listened attentively.

"Regarding whether wild boars are ferocious or not, I won't tell you the answer right now. You can judge for yourselves later."

Fang Ye began, "Let me first talk about how we captured the wild boar yesterday. An employee from the milk tea shop was the first to call the police. The boar had burst out and ran onto the street, and then into a KTV. The police arrived and went inside to capture it. Two young and strong police officers, along with a security guard, were upended by the boar while trying to intercept it.

By the time we got there, it had escaped into a residential complex. After being shot with a tranquilizer, it took nearly ten minutes to completely lose consciousness."

Netizens exclaimed, "Wow, are they really that fierce?"

"Indeed, I've seen Grandpa slaughter pigs before, and they struggle fiercely."

"It seems wild boars are quite dangerous!"

"Everyone must have seen the video of the milk tea shop worker dodging the wild boar yesterday, right? That's the best way to handle it.

So if one day, you encounter a wild boar in the city, make sure to steer clear and avoid it, and definitely don't think about capturing it, extremely, extremely dangerous. The destructive power of a charging wild boar is very strong!

This milk tea wild boar only weighed 153 pounds, and several strong guys couldn't stop it together, a bigger wild boar could weigh up to 400 pounds, it's not an exaggeration to say it's literally a tank in pig's skin. If it hits you and then tramples over you, you could be gone."

"If you really catch it, and it gets cornered, it will bite people too!"

Fang Ye said this and walked over to take two apples out of the food basket.

Then, he opened a crack in the iron door of the enclosure, and like bowling, he squatted slightly and tossed the apples in with a gentle throw.

The rescue enclosure didn't have a backstage area like the exhibit area; it was just one single enclosure with only one door for entry and exit.

For dangerous animals like wild boars, staff normally don't go in, feeding is done just by opening a crack in the door, tossing the food in, and that's it. The same goes for laying down bedding, just pour the dry straw and leaves at the door, and the wild boar will pick it up and spread it out for nesting.

The two bright red apples traced a beautiful parabola, landing in the middle of the enclosure.

The wild boar, which had been staying in a corner, looked very vigilant and cautious!

But the sight of the tempting apples proved irresistible, it couldn't hold back any longer as it charged forward in just a few steps, opened its snout, and held an apple in its mouth, then took two more steps forward to lower its head and pick up the other apple, before trotting back to the corner.

Spitting out one apple, the netizens saw the wild boar biting into the apple with great force, its lower jaw working energetically in sync with its efforts, and after a few crisp "crunches," they saw the apple in its mouth breaking into pieces, splitting into several chunks.

Some broken bits of apple fell from the side of its mouth to the ground, and the wild boar bent down to gobble them up, its mouth constantly chewing, devouring the food voraciously!

In about 10 seconds, it finished eating, then went on to deal with the other apple in the same manner.

The netizens were dumbfounded, "My gosh, that biting force is indeed strong!"

"If it got hold of someone's hand, it would snap it right off."

"It might not snap it off but definitely maim, for sure!"

Fang Ye chuckled, "See how fierce wild boars can be? Remember, the best response to seeing a wild boar is to get out of the way!

And don't even think about crowding around to watch the excitement. There were quite a few onlookers yesterday. When wild boars run into the unfamiliar environment of a city, they get panicked easily, and once they panic, they'll charge blindly. What if in their panic they crash into a crowd and injure you?

Is it worth getting hurt just to satisfy your curiosity and having to go to the hospital for treatment?

We from the zoo went over, shot the wild boar with a tranquilizer dart, and only after it lost its ability to resist did we take it back. That's the safest method for both humans and pigs."

Then he added with a meaningful tone, "I saw a netizen say yesterday that wild boars are very ferocious. Why are they ferocious? Because he saw at a restaurant, a captured wild boar caged in, banging and chewing on the bars with force, making a lot of noise, appearing very scary, so he thinks wild boars are ferocious."
