I have a wildlife zoo

Chapter 141 The Slippers Show Their Power



Having just rushed out of the office building area and onto the zoo's main road, they spotted two people dressed in white coats ahead.

Lin Ying had received the call earlier than Fang Ye, called another veterinarian in the office, and, with the emergency kit in tow, ran out in a hurry, closely following Fang Ye out of the office building.

"Lin Ying!"

"Director!"

Lin Ying turned around, her expression also one of panic.

While running side by side, she asked urgently, "Director, what happened to the macaque? Is it seriously injured?"

Fang Ye said gloomily, "I have no idea! Brother Lü wasn't very clear either, it seems White Brow was injured and bleeding, but the details are unclear."

Lin Ying was now in a complete panic!

During her studies, the subjects for surgical practice were common livestock like pigs, cows, and sheep. Later, in the pet hospital, she treated common animals like cats and dogs.

Zoo animals were different; compared to the more familiar livestock and pets she had practiced on, every species had its peculiarities, and experience in treating them required gradual accumulation!

Administering vaccines or treating parasites wasn't an issue, and any uncertainties could be researched slowly, but she had never encountered such an emergency injury before.

Moreover, many of them were protected animals. A surgical mistake on a pig simply meant a loss of money, but a mistake leading to the death of a protected animal was an utterly different matter.

Although the zoo's animals were flesh and blood, injury and death were inevitable, she still did not want to see animals get into accidents.

She hoped the injury wasn't too severe!

"Director, why are you wearing slippers?"

"Ah, just changed them, it's cooler!"

"Have you eaten yet, Director?"

"Not yet..."

"Me neither..."

Lin Ying didn't even know what nonsense she was spouting; she was so nervous at the moment that she couldn't help but talk nonsense to relieve the tension!

They ran all the way and quickly arrived at the macaques' Monkey Mountain!

Lü Jiamu's apprentice, sweating profusely and at his wits' end, was anxiously waiting in the back shed. Seeing Fang Ye and the veterinarians arrive, his eyes lit up, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "Director, you're here!"

"Mhm, it's okay," Fang Ye reassured him briefly.

At the staff entrance, they peered through the metal mesh in the door to the outside, where two macaques were fighting fiercely. They chased and ran, changing locations, battling intensely. Other monkeys jumped up and down nearby, incessantly shrieking.

Lin Ying leaned in to take a look outside and relaxed a bit; at least it wasn't one monkey lying on the ground taking a beating without being able to fight back. That would mean the injury was very serious, and it was close to being beaten to death.

Lü Jiamu had tried to break them up, only to be attacked himself. Now he kept his distance, shouting loudly and simultaneously banging the wooden handle of his capture net on the ground. But the macaques, in the throes of heightened emotions and agitation, completely ignored him, rendering his usual authority ineffective.

The social relationships of primates are influenced by both internal and external factors: internally by the relationships within the group, and externally by factors such as the glaring sun, rain, weather, and food. It's a dynamically stable social structure that sometimes undergoes a drastic change due to certain environmental stimuli.

Should there be severe aggressive behavior or certain individuals unable to secure their basic welfare due to group pressure, animal keepers must decisively enter the exhibit area to capture the animals, preventing them from sustaining more serious injuries.

Of course, direct contact can only be applied to small and medium-sized primate animals. Macaques can still enter the exhibition area directly, but with large primates like chimpanzees and gorillas, animal keepers absolutely cannot get close when they're awake. Their danger level is no less than that of fierce predators like lions and tigers.

If an animal keeper dares to rush in during a fight between gorillas, they would definitely be the first to die.

Even if the animals are precious and the conflict is intense, one can only wait helplessly from outside, waiting for a tranquilizer dart to knock them out before going in to rescue.

"Director, the protective gloves!"

Swiftly donning the protective gloves passed by Lin Ying, Fang Ye directly opened the staff passage door, and several people charged in!

"Squeak! Squeak!"

"Squeak! Squeak Squeak!"

Black Claws and White Brow, on all fours, nimbly chased and leaped over rocks on Monkey Mountain, their piercing screams as intense as the slaughtering of pigs—sounds that monkeys only make when they're in extreme rage. It appeared that the two monkeys were genuinely furious this time!

Black Claws was running ahead, with White Brow chasing behind. Suddenly, Black Claws stopped, turned around 180 degrees with a push from the rock behind, and with arms spread, lunged at White Brow.

White Brow's chest, forehead, and cheeks had grown some gray and white hair due to age, and now the gray and white fur on his cheeks was stained with fresh blood, making him look rather disheveled.

Seeing Black Claws pounce, White Brow responded with a roar from his chest without showing weakness, crouched down, dodged to the side to avoid Black Claws' bared teeth, and reached out with his paw towards Black Claws' chest and abdomen.

The two monkeys tangled and fought each other, rolling down from Monkey Mountain, tumbling to the ground where they separated, caught their breath, and then resumed their chase.

"What are you doing!"

Fang Ye rushed over and shouted sternly, "Rebelling, aren't you? Think you've got it too good, huh!"

The two macaques, caught up in their fight, completely ignored him, jumping around on Monkey Mountain, quickly darting to the other side.

People simply couldn't keep up with the chase!

Seeing Fang Ye coming over, Brother Lü cautioned, "Director, be careful, don't get hurt by them!"

The other macaques were very agitated at this point. Seeing a group of people charging over, they fiercely bristled and glared at them. One macaque sitting on a perch made a face at Fang Ye, "Yo yo yo, isn't that the Director? Haven't seen you in a few days, what's with the slippers?"

Another one ran over and started pulling on Lin Ying's trousers. Lin Ying glared down, shaking her leg trying to shake it off, "Damn monkey, get lost!"

Furious, Fang Ye took off his slipper, glared, raised it threateningly and shouted, "Hey!"

Lü Jiamu saw the slipper and instantly felt like complaining. Wasn't this leaving a flaw for the monkey to exploit?

Perhaps due to the emergency, there wasn't enough time to change shoes for the short run over.

But instead of waving a slipper, it would have been more effective to grab a wooden stick!

Thinking this, the next moment's events shocked him so much that his eyes widened and he blurted out involuntarily, "Holy shit!"

The macaques, previously full of bluster, instantly deflated. The macaque that was making faces didn't sit steady and fell from the perch to the ground, rolling and crawling in panic, "squeaking" as it ran away.

The shocked expression was like watching a pretty girl smiling in a little movie, and then abruptly turning into a sinister-looking female ghost!

The macaque that pulled Lin Ying's trousers also stealthily ran off in a puff of smoke, and the other macaques dared not act up, bowing their heads and instantly becoming well-behaved and quiet, no longer clamoring.
