Post-90s animal "Daddy" Wang Shuo:

How to teach Internet celebrities to throw garbage?

Media coverage

"Come climb a few steps, take two steps, and say hello to everyone..." At 2:30 p.m. yesterday, at the "Mengbao Kindergarten" in Beijing's Wild Animal Park, the new Internet celebrity Ruili was under the care of childcare worker Wang Shuo, showing her "skills" to tourists, and her healthy and lively appearance attracted a round of praise.

Rayleigh is a cute little chimpanzee who is now over a year old. Its health and cuteness are inseparable from Wang Shuo, the "grandfather" of the post-90s who carefully takes care of it every day. As a nursery, Wang Shuo has been working in beijing wildlife park for more than six years, and the young man in this post is not only studious and inquisitive, but also constantly comes up with new "ideas", from zero-based feeding "Xiaobai", to now becoming a very experienced senior nurseryman, he has paid a lot.

In the six years of Beijing Wildlife Park, Wang Shuo has raised more than 200 baby animals, including gorillas, tigers, lions, spotted hyenas, alpacas, etc. Ruili is the fifth chimpanzee baby he has raised. "Raising animal babies, like raising their own children, is the most difficult in the first month of life, and they have to take care of them 24 hours a day, measure their weight twice a day, feed them every hour and a half, and pay attention to Rayleigh's bowel movements at any time." That's how I 'survived'. Wang Shuo said.

Don't look at Wang Shuo as a big guy, but his heart is as thin as a needle. Ruili is also the first juvenile female orangutan in Beijing Wildlife Park, weighing less than other juvenile males. In the process of feeding, how much is needed for the proportion of milk powder, how to make Rayleigh's weight growth reach the standard growth rate of 400 grams per half a month... Wang Shuo carefully observed Ruili's weight change every day, adjusting its feeding ratio little by little, from 1 to 10 to 1 to 6, and finally allowed Ruili to reach the standard of 400 grams in half a month.

While ensuring the healthy growth of animal babies, Wang Shuo will also come up with some new "ideas" in feeding. For example, using the habits of animals to carry out some simple skill training, the orangutan Coy, who is more than four years old, now knows how to throw it in the trash when he gets the apple skin. This "conditioned reflex" comes from Koi's love of tearing cotton from a plush toy since she was a child, and Wang Shuo will train it to throw cotton into the trash. Then slowly changed the cotton into apple skin, and over time Coy became a "net red orangutan" who would "throw garbage".

Wang Shuo said that watching these small animals be healthy is his greatest achievement. Today is the first day of the 11th National Day holiday, and Wang Shuo will be with Ruili to welcome the arrival of every tourist during the seven-day holiday. Article/Reporter Wu Wenjuan
