I have a wildlife zoo-Chapter 471 The Red Panda in Heat

Fang Ye attempted to try out metaphysics, taking two deep breaths and entering a state of mind as still as water, free from joy or sorrow, like an ascetic monk who had long lived in the seclusion of the mountains.

First, he tried a few single draws to test the water.

"Congratulations, host, you've obtained Tiger sticker*3!"

"Better luck next time, please keep going, host!"

"Better luck next time, please keep going, host!"

Fang Ye's tranquility was instantly shattered, and he swore in frustration, "Damn!"

This calm and composed metaphysics was utterly useless.

"Congratulations, host, you've obtained Macaque plushie!"

"Congratulations, host, you've obtained Lion plushie!"

"Congratulations, host, you've obtained Green Peafowl plushie (medium)!"

"Huh, a Green Peafowl plushie?"

Curious, Fang Ye took the plushie out from the system space.

The craftsmanship of the Green Peafowl plushie was exquisite!

The scales on the neck were sewn layer by layer with fine fabric; they could even be flipped up, but they weren't as numerous as those of a real green peafowl, or it would have looked bloated.

The faint fabric's color transitioned from green to light yellow, creating a golden shimmer from certain angles. The wings and the tail feathers shimmered and changed color, giving it an ethereal fairy-like appearance.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "This Green Peafowl plushie is just too beautiful!"

Its exquisite and beautiful quality was undoubtedly first among all animal plushies!

Fang Ye thought to himself, "I'd feel almost guilty not selling it for several times its worth, given how elaborate the craftsmanship is!"

Then he obtained some other odd items!

Insulated camping tent: Made of light, durable fabric with excellent insulation, waterproof and snowproof, suitable for camping in cold regions.

Note: It's time for a spontaneous trip.

Chocolate Energy Bar: Quickly replenishes energy and staves off hunger to be yourself again. One bar can sustain a person for a whole day.

Note: Can't replace staple food. Eating several days in a row may lead to severe constipation.

Just what he needed for a trip to Qinghai.

In fact, the Green Peafowl plushie was not so easy to obtain either; after all the popularity value was used up, only five were produced.

Fang Ye couldn't bear to sell them; such beautiful plushies, he thought, were better kept for his own enjoyment.

If there were any future zoo activities, they could be used as prizes.

…

The next day, he collected the newly obtained fermentation jar and placed it at the back of the small farm in the zoo.

Afterward, Fang Ye visited the red panda exhibit to check on the red pandas.

The red pandas were in their mating season, and to provide them with the best environment and the chance to produce offspring, they were kept out of the exhibit and in the back to minimize disturbances.

Breeding red pandas in captivity was extremely difficult!

For giant pandas, the mating season lasted about 2-3 weeks, with a very short peak fertility period allowing for mating, typically only 2-5 days, averaging 3 days; for red pandas, it was even more critical, with only one day.

Entering the back area, Fang Ye greeted Guan Shan, chatting and inquiring about the situation while heading to the enclosure where Chestnut and Red Bean were staying.

Now the two were together 24 hours a day.

Chestnut, at the moment, paced restlessly back and forth inside the enclosure, anxious and agitated as if its butt was on fire.

Usually, when they saw Fang Ye, the red pandas were very fond of him and would come over to cling to his pant legs, peeking into his pockets and sniffing for apples.

But today, Chestnut obviously wasn't interested in him!

Seeing Fang Ye, Chestnut didn't approach him as usual and instead continued to wander within the enclosure.

Chestnut walked to a perch near the wall and suddenly stopped!

It arched its butt, back resting against the perch, and paws braced against the wall.

It seemed to be deep in thought, then began to gyrate its hips in a circle, twisting left and right, in a rather alluring pose.

It rubbed its backside against the perch while its tail kept rising and falling.

This "tail-raising" movement is a typical behavior of the mating season.

"Cheep cheep cheep cheep~ cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep~"

While raising its tail, it emits a shrill and melodious call like that of a bird.

Red pandas typically don't make noise!

When they act spoiled or are anxious and in pain, they make a shrieking sound; when fighting or threatening an enemy, they sound like pigs.

During the mating season, however, their call is a very distinct bird-like sound.

Just a few days ago, it made bird calls at Shuaishuai, following him around and trying to climb on him, which scared Shuaishuai enough to make him pig call back at it.

It rubbed flirtatiously for quite some time, but seeming to feel that this posture wasn't very effective and unable to alleviate its restless mood, it climbed up the perch and reached a higher spot.

Grasping the trunk, it squatted down, rubbed against it, and made a circle with its butt as it raised its tail!

Then, its back arched, and its tail curled inward.

Guan Shan sighed, "Now Chestnut thinks about Red Bean all day long and has lost its appetite for its favorite bamboo leaves and apples."

As for Red Bean, it seemed to have no reaction at the moment!

It hid on top of a tall tree, only showing its head, watching them with a dumb and innocent face.

When the animal keeper noticed that Chestnut was showing signs of being in heat, they started to put them together in the same enclosure.

As soon as they were put together, Chestnut dashed towards Red Bean like an unbridled wild horse, pressed it down under him, scaring Red Bean terribly!

They usually played well together, so what was this sudden madness?

Whenever Red Bean was on the ground, Chestnut would run over, trailing behind its tail, occasionally trying to climb on top of it. Sometimes, when Red Bean stopped to eat bamboo leaves, Chestnut would even bury his face in Red Bean's plump butt and lick it repeatedly.

It was as if he had transformed from a happy red panda into a perverted subway groper.

Chestnut's enthusiasm was a bit too much for Red Bean to handle, and sometimes, when it became unbearable, Red Bean would dash to the very top of the tree branches, just like it was doing now.

If Chestnut tried to follow it up the tree, Red Bean would use its claws to hit him and hiss at him fiercely.

But Chestnut was unwaveringly persistent!

No matter how fiercely Red Bean hit or scolded it, Chestnut was not discouraged at all.

But Red Bean still had to come down to eat, right?

As soon as Red Bean came down from the tree, Chestnut would toddle after it, clinging to Red Bean relentlessly.

Fang Ye waved cheerfully, "Red Bean? I've brought you some delicious apples!"

Red Bean's eyes lit up at the mention of apples and it climbed down from the tree!

Upon descending, it first glanced warily towards Chestnut, as if its gaze was warning, "Don't you dare come over here! Come any closer and I'll beat you up!"

Chestnut stood still, gazing fixedly at Red Bean as if to say, "You know me, am I that kind of red panda?"

Red Bean came over and took a piece of apple from Fang Ye's hand!

Propping itself on one front paw, it held the apple with the other and began to eat with relish.

While Red Bean was eating the apple, Chestnut lowered its body and sneaked over stealthily.

Red Bean's ears stayed perked, munching on the apple, when suddenly it got a jolt!

Turning its head, it saw Chestnut appear less than half a meter away.

The two red pandas locked eyes as Chestnut's raised hind leg froze, then slowly settled back down.

The sincere look in his eyes seemed to say, "I'm just passing by!"

Pretending nothing was amiss, it turned its head and planned to walk on, but its alertly raised ears betrayed Chestnut's guilt!

Red Bean stopped chewing, its gaze fixed tightly on Chestnut, as if emitting a murderous aura, and the remaining half of the apple in its hand fell to the ground, rolling a couple of times on the lawn.

Chestnut: Danger!

Dropping the act, it lifted its foot and took off running, with Red Bean chasing relentlessly behind like an angry bull!

Usually, when running, they moved like red bean paste skimming across the water, tracing graceful arcs, but now they were like projectiles launched from a slingshot, reaching the end of the back enclosure in the blink of an eye, the two red pandas chasing each other in circles.

When Red Bean got tired of chasing and wanted to continue eating the apple, Chestnut crept over again stealthily!

Red Bean was simply worn out, body and soul. It left several pieces of apple uneaten and hastily climbed back up the tree.
