Have you ever met someone who treats pandas like children? In this world where the head is squeezed for profit, there is a "strange person" who treats pandas as treasures and is still very happy to deal with pandas every day.
In the fast-paced life, people continue to lose a lot of beautiful things, and many original things are gradually replaced.
Yong Yan, who graduated from junior high school, waded through the mountains and waters to the deep mountains and old forests, and did the dream job in the forest area - studying pandas.
In order to protect a panda, he confronted more than 30 antelopes and escaped with wisdom from the threat of wild bears. What's in the picture again? Let's move on.
First encounter with panda "Little Qinya"
Yong Yan, former director of the Giant Panda Research Center of Foping National Nature Reserve in Shanxi, is also a famous giant panda expert in mainland China.
He is different from the average college graduate expert, only the level of beginner Chinese, at the beginning he was only a ranger, he can become a leader in the field of giant panda research, completely with hard work and love.
But these titles are not enough to show Yong Yan's obsession with pandas, how much does he love pandas? Everything has to start with the panda "Xiao Qinya".
"Xiao Qinya" was born in the autumn, and in the spring, Yong Yan and the forest staff also witnessed the courtship contest experienced by the mother of "Xiao Qinya".
It was a "beautiful woman" of pandas who exuded charm, and in the spring, five male pandas fought to the death in order to get it.
According to Yong's strict description, the fighting pandas desperately bite each other, one bites each other's noses, one bites each other's paws, tearing each other apart, and the five pandas are trembling, desperately fighting for the final victory, they hug each other tightly. In the distance, you can see that the panda is bleeding everywhere and its ears are red.
The surrounding trees are also stained with blood, in short, in order to get the "spring", they really experienced a life and death battle!
The beautiful "Spring" stood proudly on a rock in the woods, screaming, as if to cheer for the eventual acquisition of his lover.
After a long battle, the winner was finally decided, the champion was able to hold the beauty as desired, and "Spring" also mated with the brave who defeated the four strong opponents as desired.
A shocking courtship battle came to an end, and with the end of the battle, the romantic love and reproduction of "Spring" and the panda warrior began.
In the blink of an eye, the time has come to autumn, the layers of forests are dyed, and shaanxi Foping, located in the southern foothills of the Qinling Mountains, has entered the most beautiful season, and the animals that have experienced love and mating have begun to multiply.
At that time, Yong Yan was collecting and researching in the mountains and forests, walking around in the mountains, on the way he was moving forward, the streams were babbling, the peaks were as high as the spires, reflecting the green sky, and suddenly, there was a discovery that surprised him!
It turned out that they saw "spring", Yong Yan couldn't believe his eyes, and at the beginning of the year, it beautifully caused five pandas to fight, and now it turned out to be a different picture.
"It squatted in place for a long time, did not move, and even changed the habit of eating and chewing for more than ten hours a day to fill its stomach, almost did not eat or drink all day, and it was chubby, and it had lost a lot of weight."
All these changes are because of the "little Qinya" in his arms, his little baby panda. The once proud and reserved beauty has become a strong and calm mother, almost unrecognizable.
The name "Spring" came from this - seeing that it protected its own cubs so much, Yong Yan gave this strong panda mother a vibrant name, called "Spring".
And this baby panda, in the mother's arms is tightly held, its spring mother does not let go of it for a moment, Yong Strict either sees its small head, or sees his little paws, "spring" wraps it tightly.
This unexpected discovery made Yong Strict excited, and they watched their every move by the side of the mother and daughter.
Be struck by the great maternal love of "Spring"
Lao Yong they found that "Spring" is very fond of its baby panda, it does not eat or drink nor willing to put the child down, when it has to move the baby panda, it will gently take the baby panda with its mouth and change the position.
Afraid of the baby's cold, it has been using its upper limbs to hold the baby in its arms, sticking to the softest position of its belly, maintaining this extremely uncomfortable sitting position until the legs are numb and sleepy, and only making slight posture adjustments.
When the staff on the mountain saw this scene, they all felt touching, "This panda protects its own cubs, just like people protect children." ”
The lively baby panda kept stomping in her mother's arms, as if she wanted to break free of her mother's arms, and seeing that its vitality was so tenacious, Yong Yan thought in his heart: "Today's baby is probably the descendant of that warrior." ”
In order to commemorate the previous year, the giant panda Qinling subspecies was recognized by the scientific community, and Yong Yan named this healthy and lively baby panda Qinya.
At this time, "Xiao Qinya" is still a female panda who has just reached the full moon, the body has just shown the color of black and white, and the sparse soft hair is covered on the soft and small body, although the body is small, it constantly shows a lively nature, and constantly dances its limbs in the arms of her mother.
Seeing that "Xiao Qinya" was so cute, Yong Yan immediately developed an incomparably loving heart, and because he had been studying pandas, he had a hidden worry about the future fate of "Xiao Qinya".
In previous studies, Yong Strict found that captive pandas often abandon their children, perhaps because they are kept in captivity, these panda mothers never want to take care of their children, and the panda babies they give birth to all need artificial feeding to grow up.
"Spring" single-handedly takes care of its baby panda, can it persist? Will it abandon "Little Qinya"? When he thought of this, Yong Yan's heart was full of worry.
Lao Yong's worries are not completely unreasonable, there are indeed many great maternal love in animals, but after all, it is still a minority, especially single mothers like "Spring", if you want to take care of the baby, you have to suffer all kinds of hardships, sometimes you can't leave one step, leave for a little longer, the baby will be in danger, in the face of such difficulties, how to do "spring"?
Will it really abandon Xiao Qinya?
Sure enough, after a day of torrential rain, Yong Yan suddenly received a report that Qin Ya was abandoned by his mother, and his whole person seemed to receive some critical blow, he didn't want to run directly to the mountain, the road was slippery after the rain, and there was danger, but he couldn't take care of anything, and his only worry at the moment was Qin Ya's life safety.
After arriving at the mountain, Yong Yan found that Xiao Qin Ya was really alone in the cave, its spring mother was missing, Yong Yan immediately picked up Xiao Qin Ya lovingly, comforted it and checked whether it was injured, and after seeing that it was safe and sound, Lao Yong breathed a long sigh.
It didn't rain on the way there, but Yong was drenched in wetness, his hair was dripping with strands of water, and according to him, he was running up the mountain too quickly, which was all my sweat.
The staff around them all guessed that Xiao Qinya must have been abandoned by the spring, and persuaded him to take Xiao Qinya back to feed, it is only more than two months old now, although the hair has become thick and thick, it can adapt to the outside temperature, but it still does not have the ability to survive alone, if abandoned by his mother, it will soon die.
The scene of taking care of Xiao Qinya in the past in the spring immediately appeared in front of Yong Yan's eyes, it was so precious to this little baby, afraid that it would bump into it, not to mention abandoning it, Yong Yan did not think that spring would abandon his children, if it was not actively abandoned, was it that spring encountered some accident?
As soon as he thought of this, Yong Yan's heart mentioned the throat eye, and he quickly organized people to look around and silently prayed, hoping for a safe return in the spring.
The people who went out to look for it soon found the spring, it turned out that she was eating bamboo not far from the cave, she was really hungry, and quickly ate there, but when the searcher approached it, it immediately left this secret bamboo forest, and ran back to the cave like lightning, picking up Xiao Qinya, worried that someone would hurt her.
Everyone was shocked by the great maternal love of spring, it is far more conscientious than everyone thinks, captive pandas can not be compared with it, spring maternal love, comparable to human love for future generations, is also very great in the animal kingdom.
In the past two months, Yong Strict has been looking in the eyes, after experiencing this oolong incident, he can't help but feel more sad about the spring, this single mother is too hard, in order to take care of the baby can not forage, the weight dropped sharply, and then continue, the health of the spring will be in danger.
Looking at the posture of spring, for the sake of Xiao Qinya, it even gave up its own life, so Yong Strictly decided to help Spring guard QinYa like his own children from now on.
It was easy to make up his mind, but it was difficult to do, and what Yong Yan did not expect was that in the next period of time, he would fight with wild bears, antelopes and other wits and courage, and staged a scene of "tiger mouth escape".
2. Together with spring, guard "Little Qinya" with life
Yong Yan has always been a low-key person, he is wise, he has gone through many vicissitudes, and he has dealt with many problems of encountering wild beasts in the mountains and forests, but this time, he seems to underestimate the difficulties he will face.
In the beginning, the guard work was very troublesome. Because of the sensitivity of spring, yong strictly they did not dare to make any sound, a little movement, spring will hold Xiao Qinya and escape, until it is safe to come back.
Later, Yong Strict found that the original spring was afraid of the sound of leaves and branches, and the sound of people talking did not react to it, after which Yong Strict went to care for Xiao Qinya's mother and daughter, and could only watch motionlessly to prevent "hitting the grass and frightening the snake".
Speaking of striking grass and frightening snakes, once, Yong Yan really touched the snake, and now I think about it, I still pinch sweat.
At that time, Yong Yan was near the spring and Xiao Qinya, he suddenly felt that the instep of his feet was cold, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, when he saw the goosebumps on his body, he immediately trembled, and the snake was slipping past the back of his feet, just slipped a small half of his body, and most of them were waiting to slip by.
Yong Yan had dealt with all kinds of small animals in the deep mountains and dense forests for so many years, and this was the first time he had encountered it, he said, "It really frightened me." ”
Lao Yong did not dare to move at that time, the first was worried that Spring and Qin Ya's mother and daughter would be frightened, and the second was afraid of alarming this snake, because it was moving forward on the back of its feet, if it disturbed it, it might be frightened and bite itself.
Therefore, although Yong Yan's heart had mentioned the throat eye at this moment, he could not show it, he had to be calm and self-assured, otherwise, if this was a highly poisonous snake, he would be bitten every minute.
Fortunately, the snake slipped away, and Lao Yong's composure not only saved himself, but also spared Chun and Qin Ya's mother and daughter from being disturbed.
However, compared to the difficulties that followed, this is only a small thing.
Once, yongjian they were suddenly surrounded by more than thirty antelopes on the mountain.
The antelope, which looks flowing and peaceful and harmless to humans and animals, is actually very threatening, they can weigh up to 400kg, and they have sharp horns like two daggers, which are very dangerous for wild boars, not to mention people and pandas.
Lao Yong said sarcastically, "Such a big behemoth, a hoof stepped on, you must not step on me into meat sauce." ”
Really afraid of what is coming, the horns of the antelope herd are rubbing against each other, staring at Yong strictly, the two young men who are traveling together are young and vigorous, they have not seen any "big scenes", at this time they are scared to death, drilling into the arms of Lao Yong, and have been asking what to do.
Lao Yong is their mentor and respected strongman, he has worked in the mountains for more than thirty years, accompanied by wild animals every day, experienced countless dangers where their lives hang by the line, at this time, they can only count on Lao Yong.
But in fact, when encountering this situation, Yong Yan also pinched a handful of sweat.
But the wise man of the alpine wilderness immediately thought of a way, and he said to his companions, "Learn how to bark dogs." ”
Perhaps too frightened, the two people even forgot how the dog barked, so Yong Yan barked first, followed by the second, and then the third, the intricate dog barking was undulating, the antelope pulled their legs like frightened and ran, the huge total weight shook to the rocks on the mountain rolled down, and the antelope herd fled in a mighty way.
It turned out that the antelope was afraid of the jackal, and the bark of the dog was similar to the call of the jackal, with this experience, it is estimated that the two young people also summed up some key life-saving methods, the mountains are far away, the beasts are overgrown, these methods will always come in handy.
However, the thrilling experience is not over, and this time, only Yong Yan is alone.
At that time, he was walking in the bamboo forest, and the road under his feet seemed to have an invisible magic, rugged and winding and with no end in sight, as if to summon him to a place where he might encounter danger, and just as he was concentrating on moving forward, suddenly, a big dog bear stood up!
Yong Strict also immediately stood still, just like that, the bear stared at him at a distance of about 2 meters, he also stared at the bear, looked at each other for 10 seconds, these 10 seconds were so long, Yong Strict sweated all over his body, did not know what to do, what he did not expect was that after 10 seconds, the bear turned his head and left, Yong Strict felt that the feeling of fear came up, and he felt that his legs were soft and could not stand.
I don't know if I have been with animals for many years, contaminated with some habits that make animals feel kind, so the bear turned his head and left, but for Yong Strict, this is still an experience that almost killed the bear's mouth.
These three experiences are all major events that almost killed Lao Yong, but in fact, in the process of daily protection of pandas, there are countless major injuries and minor injuries, and it is impossible to say the end.
Spring let your guard down and begin to dive deeper
After the Antelope incident, Spring obviously relaxed his vigilance against Yong, and he could safely take Xiao Qinya, who was more than three months old, to play in the bamboo forest in front of Lao Yong, but still let Xiao Qinya keep a distance of at least two or three meters from Yong, once Lao Yong crossed this safe distance and was close to Xiao Qin Asia-Pacific, Spring would immediately rush over and drag the child away.
In order to protect Xiao Qinya, Spring will also attack the east and west, observe Lao Yong them, Spring's cleverness is far beyond Yong's strict imagination, which also makes him more and more interested in the study of the mother and daughter, in order to understand Spring and Xiao Qinya more deeply, he follows the footsteps of the mother and daughter, recording the details of their lives every day.
How many sticks of bamboo do they eat a day and how long does it take to eat one? How is the bowel movement? How many poop groups are there? How many times to urinate? Drink water several times, etc., all the records are supported by patience and details, according to Yong strictly speaking, in the winter, sometimes need to track for 48 hours continuously, and at the end of the day, the whole person seems to have a panda perspective, and the road is unstable.
Colleagues in the forest area joked that as long as Lao Yong stayed with the panda, he forgot everything.
Yong Yan was deeply immersed in the happiness of being with the panda, and he himself said bluntly: "Although it is so hard, I still feel very happy, and after being with the panda, I forget everything." ”
The pace of the days gradually moved north, and slowly, winter arrived. Winter was the season that made Yong shudder, Xiao Qinya was only five months old now, could it withstand such a cold?
Thinking that Xiao Qinya's father was a warrior who had defeated four pandas, they felt a little comforted.
When winter really came, Yong Yan saw Xiao Qinya jumping out of the snow with her mother to forage for food, and this worry was considered to have landed.
Day after day, month after month, Yong Strict they have been accompanying and guarding Spring and Xiao Qinya, watching Xiao Qinya grow from two months old to five months old, and then nine months old, until she comes out of the appearance of a lively girl.
During this time, Yong Strictly watched like a child of his own, watching Xiao Qinya waddle and walk, slowly and steadily advancing one foot deep and one foot shallow, watching the four-month-old climb a tree for the first time, learning to sleep in the tree like his mother to protect his safety, walking into the snow for the first time to leave cute panda paw prints, and going out with his mother for food for the first time...
It seems that our little Qin Ya has finally grown up, and Spring has been relieved about this little guy, agreeing to go out alone to forage for food, but Xiao Qin Ya, who travels alone, can exhaust Yong Strictly, it is like a reckless girl, curious about everywhere, causing Yong Strict to change the camera position all the time.
All kinds of good memories kept pouring into Yong Yan's mind, and when the spring of the next year came, he was a little frightened because
He knew that according to the laws of panda life, soon after, in the spring, his mother would take Xiao Qinya to move to a higher mountain.
Almost a year later, he gave all his love to Xiao Qinya and Yong Strict in the spring, unconsciously feeling sorry for him. It was hard to get the complete trust of Qin Ya and Chun, and now even if they took pictures around them, the mother and daughter were not moved, but they were about to leave.
Sure enough, the day after that, Xiao Qinya and Spring suddenly disappeared, and Yong strictly verified his guess, and then he silently searched for them many times higher, but to no avail.
It wasn't until half a year later that Yong Yan suddenly met Qin Ya's mother and daughter by a small river. Because he had guarded it for nearly a year, Lao Yong recognized them as soon as he saw them.
Yong Yan, who had been empty in his heart, was filled with sudden happiness at this moment, and the size of Xiao Qinya in front of him was almost the same size as his mother's in the spring.
"It was very interesting to cross the river with his mother there, and his mother went first, and then waited for him to come, and he was right next to the river, and he didn't dare to cross it." He probed the water with his paws, probing and probing, and then his mother was next to him, just like his mother was reprimanding the child, and Qin Ya still didn't dare to pass, and then his mother came over."
The whole face is warm and beautiful, as if the mother is talking to the child.
However, this meeting was very short, and he knew that when he grew up, Xiao Qinya would soon go to another forest area to open up his own territory, which was a way for animals to prevent inbreeding.
For a long time after that, Yong Yan was thinking about Xiao Qinya, and he didn't know how he was doing now when he was married? Are there any warriors fighting for it, whether they have their own little babies, will they encounter any danger?
Life will always turn over, we all go farther and farther in the bondage and warmth of love, looking back, Yong Strict has paid infinite love for Spring and Qin Ya, and the research record of the mother and daughter has also made an important breakthrough in yong strict research on the breeding of giant pandas in the wild.
His photos for Spring and Qin Ya have also become a classic of panda photography, which has been reprinted by the media around the world, attracting more people to care for and care for giant pandas.
As a forest animal guardian, Yong Strict is out all year round, and in the process of cultivating feelings with his family, he is always inseparable from pandas, he also remembers that he used to send home the panda photos he took, and his children will take the photos to the class to share with their friends, and their hearts are full of pride.
Nowadays, his own children also have children, Yong Strict is still stationed in the mountains to study pandas, he regards this cause as his eternal pursuit, we seem to see him walking cautiously, striding to the higher part of the mountain forest, looking for the traces of Xiao Qinya along the zigzag wild trail, sunrise and sunset, he stays here with full concentration, he dedicates everything to the cause of guarding pandas, the only expectation is that he hopes that everything he does can make Qin Ya and his friends live a better life.
