After seeing the crocodile's eyesight, the crocodile's suppression was released, and the nearly four-meter-long crocodile ran toward the pond as if it was escaping.
“I didn’t expect the crocodile to run so fast. Is he frightened? I can’t tell that the big guy is a bit timid.” Cheng Si said.
"Most alligators are mild-tempered, but you need to be skillful and understand their habits." Teve reminded from the side. He was afraid that Cheng Si would be careless and make the same mistake again. After all, Cheng Si was a scumbag with only 0.1 python power in his eyes.
scum.
But Steve didn’t need to remind him about this. Cheng Si had read a lot of reports about crocodiles. Alligators known to be gentle in nature also had many reports of hurting people. He had never seen news about keeper’s hands being bitten off or even fatal.
Just now when Steve asked someone to help, Cheng Si hesitated for a moment because at that moment he remembered another report: someone had his hand bitten off after trying to look into the eyes of an alligator.
Being cowardly does not mean that it is incapable of lethality.
What’s more, it’s such a large beast with a powerful bite.
It not only bites, but also rolls over when it bites!
Who can bear this?
It’s easy to cut it into pieces, right?
Cheng Si shuddered.
He can handle small and medium-sized crocodiles, but such large ones should be left to professionals. The Zhoushan cobra taught him a profound lesson. Don’t try it easily if you don’t have strong skills. If you can’t afford it, try it.
As for Feng Yi, he doesn't think it was him who scared the crocodile, and he is now a mimic, so he is a little heavier than the average person.
Old Josh asked someone to observe the condition of the crocodile, while he took Steve towards the snake area.
Without someone from the research center to lead them, they could not enter many areas. This was not the first time for Teve to come here. He explained to Feng Yi and Cheng Si as he walked inside.
“There are many breeding rooms here, including local snakes and snakes from other places.”
Walking into a breeding room, there are many breeding boxes stacked on top of each other.
A simple office area is separated next to it, and a small breeding box is also placed on the desk.
Old Josh was filling in the entry and exit registration form, and Steve was already craning his neck to look inside the breeding room.
Cheng Si glanced around this small office area and caught a pattern that made him nervous.
“Cobra!”
It is said that once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of well ropes for ten years. Cheng Si was once bitten by a cobra, and now he has overreacted to creatures that look like cobras.
Just a brief glance at the swollen neck made Cheng Si's scalp tighten, recalling the scene of being bitten and the not-so-good memories of being hospitalized.
Extreme discomfort.
Old Josh who was filling out the form was startled by Cheng Si's voice and looked around. Where is the cobra?!
He has cooperated with many Chinese people. Although he is not familiar with Chinese, he still understands key words such as "cobra". Because of this, Old Josh was at a loss when he heard Cheng Si's exclamation. His first thought was
:The cobra in the terrarium 'escaped'?!
However, following Cheng Si's gaze, Old Josh laughed out loud, gave Steve a "you explain" look, and continued to fill out the form. He had brought three people over, and he had to register the information of three more people. Teve left
They came over and looked at the small snake in the terrarium on the table. It was facing them with its neck swollen, looking fierce.
With that body color and this appearance, it looks a bit like a cobra at first glance. But...
“It’s not a cobra, it’s an eastern hognose snake.”
Cheng Si was stunned for a moment, then got closer and looked again.
Oh, it’s a pig.
Hig-nosed snake’s great skill
【Giant venomous snake!】
【I pretended~】
Cheng Si laughed uncomfortably and said, "Ahem, this pig is not big but has a big heart."
He didn't know that hognose snakes could disguise themselves as venomous snakes. Some looked like big triangular-headed vipers, and some looked more like cobras. However, when he saw the swollen neck just now, he had a conditioned reflex.
Feng Yi stood quietly beside him without making a sound. The smell in the breeding room was too strong and he felt a little uncomfortable, but he also took this opportunity to replenish his brain database and remember those strange smells so that he could identify them later.
The snake in the breeding box on the desktop, he didn't see it, he knew it was not a cobra. The breath was different. It was a little snake with no threat. He didn't pay much attention.
Knowing that it was a pig's snout, Cheng Si was no longer afraid, but became interested.
“Can I touch it?” Cheng Si asked.
Old Josh nodded, "Okay."
Cheng Si reached out to touch it and said, "I didn't recognize this gray-black body color just now. I have seen hognose snakes raised by others, but the color is brighter."
While speaking, Cheng Si felt his finger being bumped, but he was not afraid and ignored its bluff.
Hog-nosed snakes are back-toothed snakes. The two fangs are located in the throat. They are not easy to be bitten. They are not very toxic and are not dangerous. The venom is actually more like a mutated version of saliva rather than the venom gland injection of traditional venomous snakes.
poison.
Each person has a different physical constitution and responds differently to the venom of the hognose snake. Most people have no major reaction when bitten.
“The legendary, Eastern Drama Queen, Pig Nose!”
As Cheng Si's words fell, Feng Yi looked over and saw the pig-nosed snake inside, which seemed to be poisoned. It was in pain, twisting and struggling, with its mouth wide open. The snake was thrown out, as if roaring silently, and finally turned its belly to the sky.
The cloaca smells bad.
All this seems to be telling:
This snake is dead and the meat is not fresh. Please avoid it!
Cheng Si turned it over so that its belly was on the ground. But the next moment, the whole snake automatically turned its belly to the sky.
Cheng Si wanted to touch it again, but Steve stopped him, "Okay, moderate. This will have a bad impact on it. Let's not over-stimulate it. Moreover, the poison of the pig's snout has no major reaction to most people, but
There are a few exceptions. An unlucky young man was bitten by one last month and was discharged from the hospital just this week. His allergic reaction was somewhat severe."
Cheng Si expressed his understanding. It’s really hard to tell about allergies. Teve continued: “So, let this poor little guy go.”
Feng Yi raised his eyebrows. Listen, other poisonous snakes Steve called them "little cute", and this Eastern pig called them "little pitiful". Teve sighed, "Compared to seeing them in the breeding box, I would rather
See them digging into the soil in the wild.”
In general, Steve was not very interested in this Eastern pig. Seeing that Old Josh had already filled out the visitor registration form, he said, "Josh, can I go see those cute little pigs your cousin has raised?"
Old Josh’s cousin is also a researcher here, but Josh prefers crocodiles, while his cousin’s research is more inclined to snakes. Especially those large venomous snakes and giant pythons.
“Of course.” Old Josh, who had already filled out the visitor registration form, took them further inside.
There are several small breeding rooms inside, most of which are venomous snakes.
In one of the rooms, researchers were extracting venom from venomous snakes. Teve's eyes lit up: "It seems we came just in time! Do you need help?"
Cheng Si looked inside and saw that most of them were adult large venomous snakes, such as the eastern diamondback rattlesnake that a researcher was holding, a venomous snake that exists in the great swamp. The one in front of him must have been raised for a long time. He had raised a venomous snake of this size for a long time.
You can tell by looking at it that it's not stable.
Look towards the other terrariums nearby.
There are giant vipers, Taipans, black mambas, etc.
Look at the other side.
“Ah this! Is it the little green dragon?”
Look closely at the label on the box, Mangshan original spear-headed adder, that’s right.
“Feng Yi! Brother Yi! Is this one about the same size as the one you caught? What do you think is the difference between the raised one and the wild one?” Cheng Si asked.
“Get fatter,” Feng Yi said.
…”
Cheng Si stopped worrying about whether Xiao Qinglong was fat or not. His eyes were attracted by a big fat house.
“Gabonese viper! No, it seems to be the rhino-horned viper, and the Gabonese viper is in the box next to it. The fat viper is indeed a fat viper, and the visual impact is different!”
The visual impact of slender and slender snakes is indeed different from those of stubby snakes, especially the fat viper in the breeding box in front of you. It has been raised for I don’t know how many years and it looks like a giant caterpillar.
However, no matter how fat they look, they are still dangerous creatures covered in muscles.
They are all the type where Cheng Si is unstable.
Over there, Steve had just caught a snake, taken the poison, asked the researcher next to him who was next, and then said to Feng Yi: "The next one is KC (King Cobra), do you want to try it? That one over there."
Feng Yi looked in the direction Steve pointed, "Okay, I'll do it."
He knew that Steve wanted him to show off more in order to get more resources from the research center here.
Cheng Si took a step back to give Feng Yi more room to move. He stared over there and turned on the camera in his hand. These were the precious materials he could obtain today.
“This king cobra is over four meters long, right? It’s so handsome! It’s as handsome as a fake snake!” Teve’s eyes were also burning, “Look at its calm posture! Its wise eyes!”
A researcher next to him: "Such a magical species! The heart of a king cannot be despised!"
Feng Yi walked over, with a flash of his hand, pinched the king cobra and grabbed it out of the breeding box.
After all, it was a snake that was over four meters long. Feng Yi used his other hand to help him hold the snake and walk towards the experimental platform.
Feng Yi turned around and found that everyone else was looking at him.
One of the researchers was holding a snake hook in his hand, as if he was about to hand him the tool, his hands were stretched out and frozen in the air.
Old Josh looked on with his mouth open. Just now he was planning to sigh KC's kingly style like a poem, but he didn't even say half a word, so it was over here.
Feng Yi's relaxed and casual posture does not look like he has just caught a world-famous giant venomous snake, but more like he is holding a long scarf!
How can they continue to sigh like this?!
They thought that Feng Yi would take this opportunity to charm snakes with a snake hook. Many people who come here will experience it like this. After all, it is a rare opportunity. The researchers also took this opportunity to show off their ability to raise snakes here.
Not everyone can raise a four-meter-long king cobra!
Guests interact with each other and business is mutually beneficial. Only in this way can there be love!
Who would have thought that Feng Yi didn't play his cards according to the routine and ended up doing it with his bare hands!
The words they prepared didn’t even get a chance to be spoken!
Cheng Si's camera did not miss the researchers' reactions. He held back his laughter, gestured to Feng Yi, and said silently: "Niu beep!"
Feng Yi had caught a king cobra before, and the one he caught was a wild species. This one was bigger than the one he caught in the wild, but it was bred in captivity after all, and its murderous intent was not that strong. It didn't take it as a big deal at first, but now he saw it
Everyone else was staring at him. Feng Yi looked at the snake in his hand. Yes, it was a king cobra.
“Do I need to squeeze out the venom?” Feng Yi asked.
The researchers came to their senses and said, "No, we only record the voluntary detoxification during the attack, and do not squeeze the venom glands."
This king cobra was particularly vicious when it bit the venom extractor. The venom was injected into the glass vessel as if desperately, unlike the calm look it had just now.
Cheng Si looked at the amount of venom and trembled unconsciously. If he was bitten...
After the King Cobra, Feng Yi caught a few more snakes, and Old Josh took them to the python. However, this time the researchers were obviously much more enthusiastic about Feng Yi, and they also added their contact information.
On the side where the pythons are kept, the breeding boxes are larger and decorated into small rooms. Cheng Si felt like he was in a reptile house at the zoo.
The green anaconda's head rested on the branch, its cold eyes stared through the glass, and its forked tongue flicked out.
Cheng Si asked Feng Yi: "It is staring at me. Do you think it is in a daze or thinking? Or is it thinking about something else that is not good?"
Feng Yi glanced at it and replied: "Compared with thinking and other things, I believe it is just in a daze after eating."
Cheng Si breathed a sigh of relief, "This kind of big snake is still very scary at a close distance. It feels like it can easily swallow me with its size."
Controlling the camera in his hand, Cheng Si walked to the python.
Anacondas and pythons are different, and they are also divided here. In addition to green anacondas, there are also yellow anacondas, red-tailed anacondas, etc., but Cheng Si is not very interested in those. Teve pointed to a few on the inside
The large breeding box was shown to Feng Yi, "Those over there are our main targets for this activity."
Feng Yi walked over and remembered the different smells of these kinds of pythons so that he could distinguish them better when he entered the swamp.
Cheng Si stood in front of a breeding box: "Is this the super species that the python bosses mixed up in the swamp?" Teve rarely looked serious, "Well, it's a more dangerous creature."
Cheng Si took a photo, "The head doesn't look big, but the torso can fit me in." Teve nodded in agreement, "Yes, with a slap face and pouty lips, this little painted face looks cute, but it can swallow a whole meal."
It’s just a deer.”
Feng Yi, Cheng Si: "..."
How cute is this guy!
Don’t describe it randomly!
Cheng Si didn’t dare to face the description of “slapping face and pouty lips” anymore. He knew that Steve was always not normal when facing reptiles, so he turned sideways and talked to Feng Yi.
“This python is just like the anaconda just now. It looks like it is in a daze. What do you think it is thinking now?”
Feng Yi hesitated for a moment, then said: "I think it may have a little... malice that is difficult to explain clearly."
