Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl-Chapter 297 - : The Young Female Bear That Suffered a Great Calamity

Chapter 297 -297: The Young Female Bear That Suffered a Great Calamity

Old Gao was very content; he had finally found the perfect place for his work.

The rescue station, though small, was fully equipped and lacked complex interpersonal relationships, enabling him to concentrate on his research without disturbances.

After chatting for a while, Xiao Shen, who had gone out to walk the cat, returned with the little lynx.

Following them was Little Jin, lazily yawning.

“Mr. Chen, when did you get back?”

Xiao Shen put down his backpack and camera and sat down next to Chen Ying.

Though he had grown darker and leaner, he had also become stronger.

“Mr. Chen, can you take a look at the footage I shot today while training the little lynx?”

Though the little lynx had a heart condition, its symptoms had decreased significantly after two months of treatment.

Chen Ying hoped that before it was sent to the Wildlife Park, it could experience the beauty of nature.

Thus, after it was able to move around, he remotely instructed the setup of a playroom for it and had Xiao Shen take it out for activities every day.

Now, it seemed the results were quite good.

“I have written down all the activity records for the little lynx, and I have also saved the footage of its daily exercises by date. It’s scheduled for a follow-up check on the eleventh of next month, and I have already made an appointment with the protection center.”

The Giant Panda Protection Center had better and more comprehensive diagnostic equipment, and important examinations were always conducted there.

“Elder Sister Dao wants to remodel the first floor. She said that Professor Careyes from Panthera through a foreign foundation has donated a Digital X-Ray imaging system and a high-end microscope. Together with our existing equipment, we have enough to establish a miniature wildlife hospital.”

Previously, the rescue station had a DR system, but it was a second-hand model purchased from a pet hospital.

This set of DR systems, along with the portable ultrasound machine, could meet the needs of most feline animals.

Even if the tiger mother needed emergency care, the rescue station could handle it. (Touch wood, the tiger mother should never be in trouble!)

The old machines that were dismantled could either be sold or moved to the Xiaozhai Village rescue shelter to continue being used.

Chen Ying welcomed their suggestions after listening to the discussion.

Dao Meihua and Little Sen had gone to the city to buy supplementary equipment and supplies; they were not expected to return for another two or three days.

After checking all the rescued animals at the station, Chen Ying went to Xiaozhai Village to help for half a day.

From Dr. Wang, the new veterinarian in Xiaozhai Village, he learned that Street Rat and the young female bear had actually moved to live in the mountain behind the village.

And they had broken into someone’s silkworm house.

“Although the silkworm house hasn’t been used for many years, the owner was using it as a storage space. These two bears went in, wrecked everything, and wouldn’t let anyone near to clean up.”

Vet Xiao Wang said, “Typical Street Rat! There are no wrong nicknames, just mistaken names.

“The veterinarian from Bear Garden below the mountain came to examine the young female bear once and suspected she was pregnant. Since black bears have delayed implantation, they thought their aggressiveness might also be because the young female bear was not particularly strong, and Street Rat was worried about her, so they simply decided to take over a human’s house.”

This Street Rat, cunning as can be.

After helping finish the last surgery, Chen Ying was just about to grab a bottle of honey to check on Street Rat when he heard a commotion outside.

Before he could see clearly, he felt himself being embraced.

Not only being hugged, but the big fellow was grabbing and biting, tugging at the hem of his jacket vigorously.

“Stop pulling, I’ll come with you.”

Chen Ying almost stumbled, but fortunately, he steadied himself by grabbing the doorframe.

He grabbed a bottle of honey and followed Street Rat up the mountain.

As he passed residential houses, every family’s doors were firmly closed, but heads were clustered on the walls.

He rushed into the silkworm house and saw the young female bear lying on the ground, grunting and appearing very uncomfortable.

When Chen Ying approached, the young female bear unusually showed a resistant expression and wouldn’t let him get close.

Anxious, Street Rat tried to nuzzle her with his head and was also met with a hefty slap.

Following up, Vet Xiao Wang looked in from the doorway, then ran to the next room, cut up half a basin of apples, and drizzled them with honey.

The owner of the silkworm house was very understanding; after finding out the young female bear wanted to give birth there, he rearranged everything, purposefully clearing out two rooms for the two bears to use.

One room served as a bear den, while the other stored fruits and fruit-cutting tools.

Chen Ying took the fruit handed over by Xiao Wang and asked him to contact the veterinarian from Bear Garden. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

The young female bear was a bear bile bear released by Bear Garden, and they had detailed medical records for her.

While waiting for the veterinarian from Bear Garden to arrive, Chen Ying did his best to calm the young female bear. Besides stroking her head, he avoided touching any other parts of her body.

The Bear Garden veterinarian arrived quickly, and without any small talk, immediately started examining the young female bear.

When it was time to draw blood, the young female bear became agitated. Chen Ying, unconcerned for his safety, donned a leather apron and held the young female bear’s head in his arms.

Perhaps familiar scents had a calming effect, or maybe she knew these two-legged beasts wouldn’t harm her.

The young female bear grunted and called, but she never opened her mouth wide to show her teeth at Chen Ying.

After the examination, the veterinarian looked grave.

“There might be a pathological change in her body; she needs a more detailed examination.”

However, the young female bear was confirmed pregnant, and just like humans, radiological examinations are extremely unfriendly to the fetus.

Chen Ying thought for a moment and decided to start with an ultrasound.

Every bear bile bear has some health issues, more or less.

The condition of the young female bear was considered good, but whether due to pregnancy or another cause, she had fallen ill at this critical time.

The village shelter here also has a portable ultrasound scanner, though it’s bigger than the one at the emergency station and not as precise.

Vet Xiao Wang brought the machine over and took the opportunity to learn.

“Here, there might be a tumor.”

Both benign and malignant tumors could be present in the abdominal cavity.

For animals like Bear bile, due to the past bile extraction behavior, there is a very high possibility of malignant changes within the abdominal cavity.

Thinking of this, the three doctors fell silent.

The young female bear’s condition had been good for the last two years; they had only been drawing blood and testing feces annually. They never expected such a situation at this critical moment.

Chen Ying’s whole demeanor darkened; he looked at the results on the screen, his mind scrambled for a moment, but he quickly gathered his emotions.

“Don’t panic, first confirm if the discomfort is related to the tumor. Then think of ways to determine whether the tumor is benign or malignant.”

As for the baby, everything should prioritize the health of the young female bear.

The young female bear seemed to sense something; it whimpered twice, covered its stomach, backed away, walked to the corner, and curled up, its small eyes warily watching everyone.

“Is it protecting the baby inside its tummy?”

Vet Xiao Wang was young and the most emotional.

Seeing the young female bear like this, his eyes reddened.

The veterinarian from Bear Garden patted Chen Ying’s shoulder and decided to take the young female bear back to Bear Garden for treatment and care.

“Don’t worry, it might not be a malignant tumor; it is still young; if not this litter, there can be another.”

Vet Xiao Wang listened on the side, feeling like he was in a scene where an obstetrician comforts the family of a pregnant woman.

Looking at the Street rat guarding the young female bear, Vet Xiao Wang sighed, then turned his gaze outside to the Silkworm house.

Several employees from the Hive stood not far away, each carrying two buckets of five-jin honey jars.

They had heard that the young female bear was pregnant and feeling unwell, so they came especially to see it.

Chen Ying looked at the X-ray for a good twenty minutes, then exhaled.

“I also think it’s unlikely to be malignant, but to be sure, we’ll need to do an abdominal CT or MRI. Do you need my help contacting someone? I know people from the radiology departments in the two nearby counties.”

The Bear Garden veterinarian did not refuse Chen Ying’s proactive offer; getting a local human hospital to perform the check-up would be ideal.

Even if no tests were done, given its current condition, its body would naturally terminate the fetus’s development.

After much persuasion, they finally got the young female bear to obediently get on the transfer vehicle of Bear Garden.

Initially, the Street rat was not supposed to go, but it was so worried about the young female bear that it squeezed on board.

Chen Ying was worried that the vehicle would be overloaded.

Fortunately, the journey was not far, less than five kilometers from the village to Bear Garden. Villagers rode motorcycles to help clear the way, reminding oncoming vehicles to be cautious.

Bear Garden had made preparations for their arrival; the vehicle stopped directly at the outermost isolation area, and the two bears were confined together.

Chen Ying had contacted a radiology department director in advance, and the director had agreed to help coordinate.

Chen Ying gave the Bear Garden veterinarian the director’s phone number, so he could bring the people and bears directly to see the director.

After being busy and returning to the emergency station, it was almost dark.

The few people at the emergency station sighed deeply upon hearing about the situation.

The atmosphere became quite somber for a moment.

However, it did not last long before the roar of two young bears followed by the distinctive cries of three giant panda cubs came; five bear cubs tumbled into the emergency station’s woods and started their daily ruckus.

Now, these five cubs could pinpoint the location of the emergency station without their mothers and find Chen Ying immediately upon arrival for food, followed by various play activities.

Uncle Zhao and Uncle Yi were particularly fond of the little ones; they kept replacing toys with batch after batch, all handmade by them.

Not just them, but other staff members of the Protection Station also adopted this habit, occasionally making enriching toys for the cubs and often using their patrolling opportunity to help check equipment.

Anything broken was not repaired but replaced immediately.

Xiao Shen heard from Little Sen that one-third of a storage room at the Protection Station was filled with items prepared for these little ones.

Apart from the bear cubs’ toys, toys for the little lynx were also plentiful.

The playroom arranged for it contained durable and attractive wooden items, swings, and a cat climbing frame, all made by Uncle Zhao and others.

The condition was to occasionally come over to take some photos to feed to the fans on the Protection Station’s official social media account.

Indeed, watching the carefree cubs play was the best way to relieve sorrow.

The little lynx, originally sleeping in the cat’s nest, also came out when it heard the bear cubs’ voices, squeaking softly, wanting to play with its older brothers and sisters.

Chen Ying picked it up and placed it on Little Yueya’s belly.

Little Yueya glanced at it, adjusted its posture to make the little lynx more comfortable, then continued to munch on a delicious carrot, crunching away.

Seeing Little Yueya enjoying the carrot, the little lynx leaned over to lick it, then spat it out, shaking its head vigorously.

Then it jumped down, ran to its playroom, rummaged for a while, and dragged out a wood mouse to try and feed Little Yueya.

“Good grief, when did it stash the mouse!”

Xiao Shen paled, almost collapsing.

Others turned to look at him, puzzled: “It’s quite normal for big cats like lynxes and leopards to store extra food; what’s the big fuss?”

Only Old Gao seemed to have thought of something, turned his head, bit his lower lip, and struggled to hold back his laughter.
