Yan ganghui was stunned: "good guy, such a big watermelon, the elephant picked it up easily with his trunk!"

Su Hui was amazed at the intelligence of the elephant: "Wow, it''s really powerful. She knows how to step on it before eating!"

Bobo stepped on watermelon with great discretion!

Let the watermelon crack, but it won''t become rotten and inconvenient to eat.

It was rolled up and juiced, revealing the sweet red soil. First, it was sent to the mouth and chewed a little twice, and then the whole was sent to the mouth. The mouth moved and chewed slowly.

Wrinkled and old, his eyes narrowed and seemed to enjoy it.

Put it in your mouth, put your nose in it and suck it. It''s like people have to wordy their fingers after eating potato chips.

It''s very pleasant to eat a watermelon in summer to quench summer heat and thirst.

"Hard core eat melon!"

"Eating a big watermelon is like eating a jujube!"

"Wow, do you eat watermelon peel?"

"Of course! There''s nothing for elephants to eat."

"It''s an elephant!"

The tourists were talking about it.

Someone smiled and asked, "headmaster, is this melon ripe?"

Fang Ye smiled: "I run a zoo. Can I give elephants raw melons and eggs?"

After giving Bobo the watermelon, she took another one out of the bag and handed it to Pingping. Meiling had already eaten the watermelon happily. By the way, she also took one back to Meilan. They all began to eat the second one. You''re welcome at all.

Seeing Meiling eating watermelon with her nose pulling the bag and preparing to eat the third, Fang ye said nothing: "you eat the one in the bowl and look at the one in the pot! One elephant is just two melons. Your share has been finished!"

Patted Meiling on the nose and took the bag away.

Meiling hesitated whether to forcibly grab it or not. She thought it over or forget it!

Originally, he was very grumpy in the elephant camp and had no good feelings for humans.

Now, after coming to the zoo, the activity ground is also open. You can walk freely in it. No one pokes her with a sharp elephant hook. This can''t be done, that can''t be done. There are various Fengrong projects for sand pit mud bath to relieve boredom, and you can stay with your good friend Meilan at any time.

In addition, the daily feed will be mixed with a spirit recovery pill, and gradually the resentment dissipated a lot, and the temper was not so grumpy.

Every time Fang Ye comes over, he brings them delicious food. I don''t really want to hurt him.

So he opened his mouth, roared and whispered at Meilan, stamped his feet, and signaled to go to activities together after eating.

Meilan glanced at Meiling, put her nose out and shook Fang Ye. The two elephants gradually walked away.

Meiling went to the side of a dirty hollow tin ball, held the ball flexibly with her nose and pushed it for a while.

This is her favorite toy recently!

It turned out that there was a tire in the playground, which was also kicked by an elephant. As a result, Meiling sat up and directly crushed the tire.

Recently, I customized a durable iron ball for them to play.

Then he kicked it gently with his foot. The iron ball immediately rolled on the sand and rolled towards Meilan. Meilan also kicked it.

It''s like playing football. Meiling is playing. The sand is flying. It''s fun.

"Elephants can play football!"

"How lovely!"

Pingping looked at Meiling playing football and seemed to want to play with her. She looked at Fang Ye.

Fang ye said with a smile: "Ping Ping, wait until you come back. This will fix your feet!"

He said to the tourists, "have you ever seen an elephant pedicure?"

The tourists showed curiosity and shook their heads one after another!

"Do elephants need pedicures? It''s really strange. I heard it for the first time!"

"Why fix the elephant''s feet?"

As we all know, the elephant is the largest land mammal in the world! An adult Asian elephant weighs 3-4 tons.

For such a huge creature, all its weight is on its limbs and four feet. Foot health is very, very important to them. It can be said that a little carelessness will lead to disaster.

It seems that the elephant''s feet are ordinary, just a big foot board. In fact, its foot structure is very fine. There is a sponge like tissue inside, which can cushion the huge pressure from the elephant when walking or standing.

The dense nerve tissue can help elephants accurately perceive the ground and finely coordinate the state of their limbs.

Just as our nails will grow, so will the toenails of elephants, and the soles of their feet will gradually produce dead skin.

If you don''t care for a long time, the dead skin is too thick, the nerve perception becomes insensitive, you can''t feel the pressure and coordinate your limbs well when walking, the toenails are too long, and the elephant seems to be walking on tiptoe, which is very awkward.

In this way, the force on the joint is uneven. Over a long time, it will cause joint deformation and pain, and bring pain to the elephant.

That''s why we have to fix the elephant''s feet! "

A tourist asked, "then why don''t wild elephants need pedicures?"

Fang ye said with a smile, "it''s very simple. Wild elephants need to find food and water. They walk a lot every day. The growth and wear of soles and nails are in balance.

However, captive elephants walk a lot less. The sand paved in our playground, coupled with various abundant capacity, allows elephants to walk around and move all the time, just to increase the chance of natural wear on the soles of their feet.

It''s the same with us. We evolved from monkeys. In the past, when we lived in trees and climbed trees every day, our nails naturally wear. We inherited this wear amount, but now there is no place for wear, so we need to cut our nails often. "

The example is very simple and easy to understand. Everyone understands it.

Some tourists looked at their nails and thought about it. It turned out that it was like this. They never thought about why their nails would grow all the time before!

Fang ye said, "I''ll take Pingping to fix his feet. If you are interested, you can follow the nursing center. That''s the nursing center over there."

Touched Pingping''s nose and waved, "Pingping, come!"

Walk in front and follow behind!

Su Hui was very interested: "go, go, this scene can''t be missed!"

……

Heping came to the nursing center, and the radio near the elephant Pavilion also played: "Hello, tourists, the head of the garden is preparing to repair the elephant''s feet at this time. Do you want to know how to repair the elephant''s feet and what the elephant''s feet look like?

If you are curious, you can come to the elephant care center to watch... "

The tourists are walking outside. They need to make a detour and come slowly.

The outside of the elephant care center is a railing. The transparent railing is convenient for tourists to visit, and the ceiling is shaded. It looks very elegant.

After a while, seeing that the tourists were almost coming, Fang Ye clapped his hands and greeted the breeder: "OK, let''s start!"

There are also some thin slashes between the two vertical thick railings to prevent elephants from sticking out their noses. There is a rectangular opening in the middle, with a height of about 50cm.

The small hole held a slender target stick, pointed to the flat left foot and pointed to the railing again!

I put my nose out first. I made a small mistake. I consciously took my nose back and put my left foot on it.
