I have a wildlife zoo

Chapter 60 The Not-so-Bright Appearance



Qian Keke propped her chin with her hand, unable to help herself she exclaimed, "Wow!"

Tang Xiaoxin felt her heart pounding and a blush spread across her face, "This... this look in its eyes, it's electrifying..."

Chestnut's expression appeared rather serious, while Red Bean's seemed a bit resentful and wronged.

Actually, it wasn't that they were feeling that way, but rather the shape of the white "eyebrows" above their eyes was slightly different.

Chestnut's white eyebrows were thick and met in the middle, resembling a middle-aged person deep in thought, while Red Bean's white eyebrows were rounded and spread to the sides, with a mouth pouted, giving off the appearance of the resentful air of a young girl confined to her boudoir.

The two red pandas did nothing at all, simply hiding in the cave and staring blankly outside, yet they had already captured a legion of fans.

The visitors were all mesmerized by the adorable red pandas, exclaiming and admiring in low voices.

"I can't even, they're too cute."

"Wow, I took a picture, I can make an expression pack for covert observation!"

"I'm utterly charmed."

"I really want to touch them."

"Aaah, look, it turned its head, it's looking over here!"

"Really, its ears even moved a bit."

After a while, Chestnut seemed to feel that there was no danger and slightly lowered its body before boldly leaping out of the cave.

Its four paws almost touched the ground simultaneously, and its round and plump body was thus exposed to the eyes of the visitors.

Then it turned its head from side to side and started to walk on the ground with its little black chubby legs.

The red panda did not tiptoe or walk with stealth; its chubby front paws were lifted flatly and placed down just as flatly, and there was a kind of charmingly naive and cute clumsiness to its gait.

As Chestnut walked, it turned its head to survey the surroundings and then looked up towards the opposite side.

There, on the perch, were several fresh shoots of umbrella bamboo!

This was a part of their food enrichment.

The natural foraging process for animals includes identifying the presence of food through environmental smells, sounds, and visual cues, tracking and searching for food, and obtaining the food through actions like hunting, digging, exploring, etc., then using the specific abilities of the species to process the food: tearing open the carcass of prey with sharp claws and teeth, cracking the hard shells of nuts...

In this process, all the animal's senses are involved, offering the chance to exercise and strengthen survival abilities.

Even in a captive environment, animals prefer to obtain food through their own efforts rather than being directly fed readily available food.

Otherwise, if the foraging behavior is deprived and the innate foraging drive is not released, in the long run, animals may develop unpredictable behaviors, that is, stereotypic behaviors.

Some visitors followed Chestnut's gaze, "Hey, look there's bamboo over there!"

"It must want to eat bamboo!"

But to get to the bamboo, it needed to figure out how to climb to the top of the perch.

A slanted log connected to the perch, the bottom half hidden by the green leaves of the bushes.

Chestnut walked up as if on a balance beam, its body plump yet its footsteps stable, making its way smoothly upward.

However, there was still a small distance to the tender leaves of the umbrella bamboo.

Chestnut pushed off with its hind legs, stood up straight, and used its front paws to pull a shoot of umbrella bamboo towards itself, pressing it down with one paw, then bit into the tender leaves, deftly rolling the bamboo leaf into its mouth, and started to munch with relish, "chomp chomp."

"So smart!"

"Wuuu so cute, I want to take one home!"

"Hey, the other red panda came out too!"

Red Bean was a bit more timid than Chestnut, taking a good while to emerge from the stone cave.

Carefully turning its head, it observed the surroundings while moving forward.

Hmm, there's a tree to the left front, and a rock on the right...

```

It seems like there's no danger after all!

Red Bean gradually relaxed, her walk becoming lively, her paws springy as if they were fitted with springs, and her butt bounced in a very Q-elastic manner.

Her fluffy dark brown tail also swayed with her steps, adding an extra dose of cuteness.

Turning her head, she spotted a stone next to her and suddenly got startled, arching her back in panic and hopping away!

She stood on two legs with her arms up, struggling to balance herself as she stumbled backward before quickly standing upright again, trying to hold her arms out wide, glaring at the stone with a fierce yet tense look!

You you you you you... When did you, this stone, get by my side!

After shaking her arms left and right to scare it for quite some time, the stone remained indifferent, showing no reaction whatsoever.

A great deal of confusion filled Red Bean's tiny eyes as she leaned down and patted the stone with her paw.

Pia!

Why aren't you moving! I'm hitting you, you know!

Stone: ...

Mi Jin captured the whole process, covering her mouth as she couldn't help but "haha" laugh, this red panda is too funny!

The other visitors couldn't stop laughing either!

"Goose goose goose goose goose, oh wow, I'm dying from laughter."

"Why does it seem like its brain isn't working quite right?"

"I think it's put all its attribute points into cuteness, so it's run out of intelligence."

"Being clumsy is really so cute, don't you think!" Qian Keke's girlish heart fluttered, her eyes sparkling with hearts.

While Tang Xiaoxin was enjoying the scene, a question arose: "Keke, why do you think the red panda is raising its hands in surrender?"

Qian Keke instinctively looked at the nearby signboard that had a picture of a red panda raising its hands, so she hurriedly said, "Xiaoxin, look, it seems to be written here."

"What is it?"

Both girls read the text on the signboard together: "Do you know the meaning behind a red panda raising its hands? Although the sight of red pandas with their hands up is very cute, as if they are surrendering, in reality, this is their reaction to feeling threatened. By standing up and raising their hands, they make their figure appear more imposing as a way to warn their opponent..."

"So that's how it is!" the two said in unison, suddenly feeling enlightened.

Looking back at the red panda in the exhibit, it seemed even more adorable and endearing.

From behind, Mi Jin found an angle and took a photo of the little girl with a pure and natural smile, pointing at the silly and cute red panda to her companion.

The combination of both cuteness unquestionably multiplied the attraction, making it perfect as an illustration, and she had a premonition that this article was going to be a hit!

Red Bean patted the stone and sensed something off as the stone did not react.

Forget it, if I can't figure it out, I won't think about it anymore.

Her front paws fell back to the ground, she bypassed the stone, and suddenly saw Chestnut eating bamboo on the perch.

Oh my, you've got goodies and you didn't even call me!

Red Bean immediately forgot about the earlier incident and hurried over.

At that moment, Fang Ye walked into the exhibit.

The red panda exhibit was a design he was immensely proud of. On the first official day of its opening, it was natural for him to see if the red pandas were happy in their space, and how the visitors were reacting to the adorable antics of the red pandas, was everything he enjoyed the most in "Planet Zoo."

"Brother Fang Ye!"

Tang Xiaoxin sensed him and turned her head to see him, exclaiming with delight.

"Isn't this... um, what's her name?" Fang Ye remembered the little girl but had forgotten her name.

He mumbled indistinctly, asking with a smile, "Did you bring your classmate here to have fun today?"
