MTL - Those Years of Dressing As An Animal-Chapter 101

"Little guy, we're going to drink milk again!"

David entered the room with a feeding bottle in his hand, came to the cage, opened the cage door, and saw the little sea otter sleeping inside with his eyes closed.

Hearing the word "drinking milk", Chen Xing immediately opened his eyes and looked at the person who came, especially the bottle in his hand.

"Hahaha, you really like to eat!" Noticing the little sea otter's eyes, David smiled heartily, and did not continue to deliberately stretch for a long time, and quickly put the bottle in his hand to the little sea otter's mouth.

Chen Xing immediately went to the road, opened his mouth and sucked the bottle in his mouth, swallowing the sweet milk one by one into his stomach to exchange for the energy needed to maintain the body.

In less than a minute, the gluttonous Chen Xing sucked a full bottle of milk, all of which entered his stomach.

Just by looking at his belly, he couldn't see that Chen Xing was eating so eagerly, like a ghost reincarnated from starvation.

Chen Xing was also frightened by the first day of his life. He tried the taste of starvation and encountered a life-and-death crisis. Now that he can drink milk into his stomach, he can't bear to spend time waiting.

Seeing Chen Xing's anxious performance, David was no longer surprised, but still complained lightly.

"It's not that I won't give you food. As for eating in such a hurry? I'm not afraid that my stomach will burst suddenly!"

Of course, this sentence cannot be true at all. How could the rescue center fail to control the amount of milk given to the cubs, so that the cub's belly is easily burst?

David put the empty feeding bottle aside, took a cloth to wipe off the milk stains on Chen Xing's mouth, then picked up Chen Xing, carefully went to the pool beside the cage, and put the little sea otter gently into it. in the pool.

Chen Xing was put into the pool by David, with this thick layer of fluff on his body, he immediately floated on the water surface, and he didn't have to worry about the possibility of sinking to the bottom, let alone the possibility of drowning.

Although sea otters are mammals and need to breathe air, their hair alone can support them to float on the water all day long.

Chen Xing was naturally the same at this time, floating on the water and swaying everywhere.

It was the first time that Chen Xing was dressed as an animal living in the ocean, and now Chen Xing got rid of his life crisis, and finally had the time to pay attention to his habits and life in this life.

Chen Xing shook his head, moved his limbs, especially his webbed hind limbs, and swayed gently, his body immediately floated on the water, but the direction was out of control.

Chen Xing continued to repeat the action just now.

Soon, Chen Xing mastered the skill of controlling the direction on the flowing water. After choosing an angle, he gently stroked the water with his hind limbs, and he could control his body to slide in the direction he wanted.

Chen Xing suddenly found fun, and began to float and play on the water beyond the water.

David on the side didn't expect the little sea otter to learn to control the floating direction so quickly this time, and he stood aside happily and proudly watching the little sea otter playing recklessly on the water.

"Okay, little guy, it's almost time, let's go back to the cage to rest!" After Chen Xing played for a while, most of his body's strength was consumed, and David on the side stepped forward and hugged Chen Xing on the water back to his arms. Then put it back into the cage, and use the dry towel in the cage to wipe the wet part of the little sea otter's hair.

If there is a sea otter mother, the baby sea otter can rest directly on the sea otter mother's belly. The sea otter mother's belly is soft and warm, which can prevent the baby sea otter from being exposed to the cold sea water for a long time and cause hypothermia.

Now that Chen Xing does not have the care of the sea otter mother, David can only carry the sea otter out of the water and put it back in a dry cage to prevent the baby sea otter from hypothermia and even danger.

After drying with a towel, David took out a comb from the shelf on the side and began to comb Chen Xing's hair very carefully.

The thick hair of sea otters is very important to the daily life of sea otters. Clean hair can ensure that the body temperature of sea otters will not drop due to the cold sea water. If the little sea otters can't learn to groom, then when they live in water and sea in the future, they will It is possible to die from hypothermia, which is why sea otters often groom their fur.

There is no mother around the little sea otter, and at this moment, only David, a human, can help the little sea otter to comb the hair on his body and maintain the thermal function of the hair.

However, if humans take care of these little sea otters for a long time, there are actually many disadvantages.

Many years ago, the rescue center had a group of human breeders accompanying the juvenile sea otters every day, teaching them essential survival skills such as finding food, grooming, swimming and snorkeling.

The little sea otters also successfully learned these survival skills under the guidance of the breeders.

However, when it was time to release these sea otters, the shortcomings of the breeders who always carefully accompanied the little sea otters were finally exposed.

The human breeders accompany the baby sea otters to grow and learn at all times. Although the baby sea otters can successfully learn various survival skills, it also makes them excessively dependent on the human breeders.

At that time, even if they try to release the finally grown sea otters back into the sea, the sea otters who are too dependent on the breeder will find it difficult to live alone in the ocean, let alone become a wild sea otter, even if they are familiar with the survival skills.

Later, the rescue center improved the method of teaching the little sea otters step by step. Even the breeders should not be too close to the little sea otters. They usually wear black uniforms and helmets to prevent the little sea otters from being too dependent on them.

While combing the little sea otter's hair, David thought about the future arrangement of the little sea otter.

The little sea otter happened to be the 500th sea otter treated by the rescue center, so at this moment, it directly used 500 as its number instead of naming it. The staff used 500 to refer to this little sea otter.

If the baby sea otters are named instead of numbers, the center is also worried that the staff will have too many feelings for the baby sea otters during the breeding process, and they will be more reluctant to separate in the future.

"Little Wubai, in a few days, you may have a mother." David looked at Chen Xing and said this.

Chen Xing, who had been comfortably dozing off because of David's help in combing his hair, suddenly woke up when he heard these nonsensical words and looked at each other eagerly.

David didn't even know that the little sea otter could still understand what he said, so when he saw the little sea otter staring at him, he didn't see what the little sea otter was thinking. Not sleepy anymore.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep, the next milk is not so soon!" David finally neatened the hair on the little sea otter, put the comb back on the shelf, closed the cage door, and picked up the empty milk bottle just put aside. Going out, Chen Xing, a little sea otter, was left in the room.

Such a simple day of not having to rack your brains for survival has been repeated for several days. Under the feeding of nutritious milk prepared by the center, Chen Xing's body has grown stronger and better, and his physical condition has gotten better and better. Only baby sea otters without the protection of their mother sea otters.

Early in the morning, Chen Xing, who was resting in the cage of the room, was suddenly picked up by David who walked into the room and packed into an air box. After about ten minutes, the box carried by David finally became stable. The box door on one side was finally opened and tilted downward at an angle.

"thump!"

With the sound of water, Chen Xing in the box was poured into a large open-air pool by David without precaution.

Fortunately, Chen Xing is not afraid of water, and he can float on the water by relying on his hair, otherwise he would be terrified at this moment.

Suddenly transferred to this big pool, after Chen Xing recovered from being caught off guard just now, he swayed his limbs quickly, floating in this big pool and began to swim slowly.

The pool is circular, except for a door where David put Chen Xing in just now, there is no opening and it is completely closed.

In the center of the pool is a small white platform a few centimeters above the water surface. Now Chen Xing can easily climb onto the platform from the water, climb onto the platform, and slide back into the water easily, so he can take a short rest.

Of course, sea otters are creatures that can live in the water, in the ocean, all day long, even when resting and sleeping, even without a platform.

However, Chen Xing was not very old at this time, and the fluff on his body had not yet fallen off. If he floated on the icy water for a long time, his body temperature would easily drop. Therefore, this dry platform above the water surface is still a small sea otter like Chen Xing. Effectual.

Chen Xing swam freely in the pool for a while, wandering almost every corner, even the green bionic seaweed in the pool was played by him for a while, and then he climbed to the platform in the center of the pool, looking up. Put on your body, shake off the water droplets on your body, and bask in the sun to warm your body.

The pool is open-air, and the warm sunlight can directly shine on Chen Xing on the platform, warming his body.

Chen Xing lay on the platform and closed his eyes, basking in the sun leisurely. The time passed little by little, and the cub's sleep time was always long, so he felt sleepy after a while, and went to sleep without any resistance.

However, just when Chen Xing was about to fall asleep, the sound of the pool door being opened came from his ears.

Chen Xing immediately opened his hazy eyes and looked towards the pool door.

At first hearing the sound of the pool door being opened, Chen Xing thought it was David who was going to take it back.

As a result, at this time, Chen Xing saw that the person standing by the pool was indeed David, the breeder, but David was still carrying an air box in his hand, and it was a large air box, and there was even an air box in it. something.

David's movements are very skilled, repeating the movements of transferring Chen Xing into this pool this morning.

Standing on the edge of the pool, David opened the flight case, tilted the flight case, and the contents flopped and slid into the pool.

Just like Chen Xing this morning.

The next second, David closed the pool door with the empty air box and left the pool.

Chen Xing stopped paying attention to David, the breeder. He focused his attention on the black "object" that David had thrown into the pool just now.

As soon as the black "object" entered the water, it immediately twisted and swam freely in the water. It seemed that the swimming style was much more familiar and agile than Chen Xing just now.

Chen Xing and the audience in the live broadcast room recognized this familiar black "object" as another sea otter.

And this sea otter is still an adult sea otter, and his body is much bigger than the current Chen Xing.

【Ah ah ah! Is this an adult sea otter? How is it still so cute! 】

[So cute, it swims so well, it really is an animal that has been living in the water! 】

[In the future, stars can also grow into this shape! It's so cute. It's already so cute in the puppy period, but it doesn't become ugly when it grows up, and it's still so cute! 】

[So what did the breeder put such an adult sea otter into the pool and stay with the stars? 】
