Chapter 107: Chapter 107 Chinese Do Not Cheat Chinese Leopard

The black panther opened its eyes skeptically and let out a grumble.

“Chinese don’t cheat other Chinese leopards!”

Chen Ying solemnly pat its chest, while the two young men behind him nearly hurt themselves trying not to laugh.

Chinese don’t cheat other Chinese leopards, but you, black panther, were imported from Malaysia!

The black panther didn’t understand the twists and turns of human thinking, but feeling reassured, it perked up and requested to return to its territory immediately.

The keeper looked at Chen Ying doubtfully, gritted his teeth, and applied to the leadership.

The zoo authorities responded quickly, agreeing to release the black panther back to Leopard Garden, but instructed close monitoring of its condition and insisted on immediate intervention if any problems arose.

Chen Ying accompanied the black panther on the transport vehicle, and once back in Leopard Garden, he even climbed a big tree with only his protective gear on, staying with the panther.

The safety patrol vehicle stood guard nearby, ready to intervene at the first sign of any emotional disturbance in the animals.

Chen Ying wasn’t bothered by the heat, dressed securely, and sat up and down the tree with the black panther.

“Come, let me show you the beautiful domestic leopards in our zoo, don’t say I didn’t keep my word.”

The tablet came in handy once again.

In fact, all this was just for show; animals selected their partners based on direct sight and scent. These pictures wouldn’t help in reality.

But the black panther felt that this two-legged beast was very reliable and truly wanting to help!

The pictures whirl and the main goal was to distract the black panther.

Indeed, no longer distracted by other thoughts, the black panther calmed down and even snuggled up to Chen Ying, lying on his lap to watch him flip through the images.

The leopard didn’t understand, but it enjoyed watching!

The eyes of the people in the vehicle were all wide with amazement.

“Damn, Brother Ying’s technique is phenomenal, isn’t his talent one of a kind?”

They mentioned the Great Druid in jest, but they all knew it was just a joke.

But Chen’s affinity with wild beasts was almost supernatural, including the keeper who had cared for the black panther for two to three years. He had to admit, reluctantly, that compared to Chen Ying, he could only hug it when the panther was weak; as soon as it got better, it would turn its face and not recognize anyone.

Chen Ying, still wearing his headset, heard the people in the vehicle and smiled without a word.

“Brother Dai, this black panther probably has psychological issues stemming from the distress of its mating season. It doesn’t like the female leopard, but when it can’t harm the other, it chose self-harm.”

This conclusion was somewhat difficult to accept but was the most likely cause.

“Let’s arrange a blind date for it. It probably prefers strong female leopards. It favors leopards over black panthers, but it wouldn’t hurt to try with black panthers, too.”

He didn’t have resources for black panthers on hand, and due to lighting, their true fur color and pattern didn’t come through well in photos, so a face-to-face meeting would be best.

However, arranging a blind date wasn’t as simple as just talking about it; it required selecting a suitable mate, seeing if the other zoo had the same intention, and considering costs and the distribution of the offspring.

It was quite a complicated process.

This year’s mating season was just around the corner, and it could be a bit late to start thinking about it now.

The mating season for male leopards isn’t fixed, but female leopards usually have theirs from October to April of the following year.

But making applications, discussing, and negotiating would all take time, and there needed to be enough time for the leopards to get to know each other; being ready by next year would be considered lucky.

Since the cohabitation had failed, the female leopard had also been brought back.

This female leopard had a much more placid, Zen-like disposition and was quite laissez-faire about having babies.

Chen Ying was quite interested in it and planned to find time to have a chat with it.

If possible, he had a silly one over there, and who knows if they might hit it off?

However, the issue of captive animals mating with wild animals is more complex than cooperation between two zoos, and without the right opportunity, there’s basically no chance.

He spent the whole afternoon in Leopard Garden, and by the evening, there were two beautiful jaguars added next to the artificial lake in the park.

The two sisters came to drink water and were also waiting to be fed.

It wasn’t long before a feeding truck came by; when it was still quite far away, it dropped several live chickens and three rabbits.

Leopards have big appetites, requiring about four kilograms of food per day. Each leopard nearly needs two chickens and one rabbit every day. Occasionally they are also given live sheep and piglets to practice hunting and killing skills.

The black panther laid on a branch, gazing fanatically at one of the jaguars, chin resting on his front paws, making barely audible noises from its throat.

“It’s really beautiful, so strong, it must be able to have strong kids.”

Chen Ying sneakily took a photo, the panther fixated on the jaguar looked just like a train pervert!

The two jaguar sisters opposite noticed it too and after peacefully staring at each other for a while by the water’s edge, they walked away with calm and steady steps.

“Come on, Little Black, they’ve gone and you’re still looking. Go and eat, I’m heading back. I’ll come to see you again tomorrow.”

“Can you bring a female leopard over tomorrow?”

“It’s probably not possible, these things can’t happen so fast. You’re so strong and handsome, with a sleek and shiny coat. We’ve got to find a good match for you, an ordinary leopard wouldn’t be good enough for you, right?”

“That’s also true.” The black panther shamelessly agreed, laying down and yawning, “Okay, you can go, I’ll rest a bit before I eat.”

Back in the car, Chen Ying patted his head, “Let’s go, head back and rest. You guys discuss which domestic zoo has a flower leopard in need of a mate.”

He couldn’t help with this matter anymore.

All the way back to the rest area, the black panther’s keeper finally couldn’t help asking Chen Ying.

“Brother Chen, how did you know that the black panther’s self-harm was because it didn’t take a liking to any of the leopards?”

“I guessed it; after all, the black panther can’t talk.”

Chen Ying thought for a moment and added another sentence.

“Even now the triggers for self-harm in humans aren’t clear, let alone animals. I analyzed the possible causes for this behavior from all aspects and used the process of elimination to change its psychological state.”

After eliminating diseases, the impact of a sudden change in environment, and the relations in the food chain with nearby animals, the possible directions become clearer.

Even if Chen Ying and his team hadn’t come, given enough time, the park staff would probably have figured out the problem on their own.

Chen Ying just shortened the time needed for this process and minimized the harm from the black panther’s self-injury.

After hearing Chen Ying’s explanation, the zoo staff readily accepted his reasoning.

The keeper even recorded Chen Ying’s words on their phone, planning to go back and understand it better in the hopes that they could handle such a situation on their own next time.

Chen was sweating buckets and guiltily changed the topic.

“Where are we staying tonight? I plan to observe its condition again this evening. Psychological issues can’t be completely resolved in one go; we need to see if it shows any other extreme reactions when faced with a matching leopard.”

Especially for the leopard prepared for sharing the enclosure, which witnessed the self-harm of the black panther, it’s hard to say that the black panther wouldn’t hurt it out of spite or embarrassment.

It’s not highly likely, but the possibility exists.

Chen Ying had a very good impression of this psychologically stable female leopard, and he was even thinking about finding an opportunity to match her with the silly one in Snow Mountain in the future. He definitely couldn’t let the black panther harm her.
