The live broadcast drone awarded by the system is pretty good!
It belongs to the black technology category, with ultra-long battery life, ultra-clear resolution, and intelligent lens focusing, but it still requires soone to control it.
It's possible to take the macaws out for so air, but the premise is that the macaws know to co back after flying a circuit.
He Yifei has been working on behavior training for the macaws lately. The training thod is simple, blow a whistle and feed the macaw a nut or fruit at the sa ti.
Using the whistle as a command is primarily because if the birds fly too far, they may not hear a shout, but a whistle can easily help them orient themselves.
The macaw itself is very smart!
After a period of training, it understands that blowing the whistle ans there are good things to eat, so it flies over when it hears the animal keeper's whistle.
If it's reluctant to fly over, it may be due to insufficient trust, but it certainly understands after so many repetitions.
Fang Ye was thinking that now it was ti to test the results!
With regular training and the macaws being fed every day, knowing who's taking care of them, they should return smoothly.
Besides, several macaws ca here together as good buddies, so there's a layer of companionship concern as well.
The emotional bond is crucial to whether or not they will return after being released!
Once the tropical rainforest aviary is complete, they could introduce more macaws. If there were hundreds of beautiful macaws flying together, the sky would look like it was graced with a rainbow made of macaws or showered with a rain of macaws. The sight would certainly be stunning to visitors.
So might ask, isn't that just an animal performance, and didn't we talk about rejecting animal performances?
This depends on the specific circumstances. Indeed, many animal performances greatly jeopardize animal welfare, such as tigers jumping through fire hoops, dolphins juggling balls, and so on. However, flying does not violate the nature of birds.
Training birds to fly in a zoo provides them the opportunity to fly freely in a larger space, which is beneficial for maintaining their flight capabilities and for their physical and ntal health.
This type of behavior training is positive reinforcent training, which implies the animal keeper provides a pleasant stimulus after the animal performs the desired behavior.
Through flight demonstrations, animal keepers can introduce the benefits of this training for birds, which is also a part of conservation education.
Traditional animal performances, on the other hand, firstly violate the nature of the animals. In nature, would tigers jump through hoops of fire, dolphins juggle balls, or bears walk on tightropes?
The training thods often involve negative reinforcent, aning an aversive stimulus is removed after the animal performs the desired behavior.
For instance, elephant-riding is a feature of tourism in Southeast Asia, where elephants obediently carry tourists, dance, or even paint.
Elephants seem very intelligent, capable of painting, but the training thods behind this are very cruel, even appalling.
The trunk of an elephant is extrely sensitive, able to sll and taste, and is vital for eating and drinking. Yet, the trunk must endure a paintbrush being brutally stuffed in for painting.
How do you make an elephant obedient and cooperative? Because elephant skin is tough, there's a sickle-like tool specifically for them called an elephant hook. If the elephant is slightly disobedient, the sharp hook is jabbed into its head, neck, or ears, causing it great pain.
And while dolphin performances look beautiful, and dolphins seem gentle and adorable, being watched by many during performances, the repetitive shows and strong lighting, along with the applause and cheering from the audience, create a noisy environnt that tornts the dolphins.
High-difficulty stunts like mid-air flips can lead to twisted intestines, and as a result, they often suffer from depression, stomach ulcers, and other diseases.
I digress.
Seeing Fang Ye looking intently, He Yifei asked, "Director, what have you noticed?"
Fang Ye had already assessed the situation with the Eye of Observation and said confidently, "Hmm, I think Xiaowen is missing the sky!"
"Missing the sky?" He Yifei was taken aback by the remark. Could it really be seen that clearly?
He had originally thought it was a problem with the food!
However, he had great respect for the Director's observation skills, even able to discern such details as the peafowl that liked beautiful won and little lolis.
After hearing about this from Tang Xiaoxin, he paid close attention several tis and found it to be true. That peafowl not only liked beautiful won, but also little girls. It never fanned its feathers when only groups of older won or male visitors were around!
So he looked carefully at Xiaowen and noticed that Xiaowen's gaze did seem a bit sorrowful, sitting lonely on one end of the perch, wings wrapped tight around its body like a wet raincoat. Watching its cheerful and loudly cackling companions, it occasionally raised its head at a 45-degree angle to gaze at the concrete ceiling, its lonely eyes seemingly saying:
I was born a bird, and for that I'm sorry.
The joys and sorrows of other parrots do not resonate with ; I find them noisy.
I'm not depressed, I just want to shed so tears.
I miss the sky a little, but I can endure.
The flowers outside the cage have blood; how I long for those nuts.
How heartbroken I am, the walnuts know, the peanuts know, the sunflower seeds know, the animal keeper does not.
After watching for a long ti, He Yifei inwardly sighed; the Director's observational skills were as sharp as ever!
Why hadn't he noticed it before?
Having graduated from taking care of a blue peafowl that liked to show off its fancy tail feathers to beautiful won before running all over the place at alti, only to be dragged back, to a clever and colorful macaw that knew how to politely greet people with a hello, this was a testant to the trust in his abilities.
He didn't want Fang Ye to think him too useless, only to be demoted back to the peafowl post and unable to enjoy the envious gazes from the new assistant keepers. After watching for a while, he slowly nodded and feigned calm, "Hmm, it seems it does miss the sky indeed! So..."
But as he was about to continue, he beca conflicted. If it was hunger, he could satisfy it, but if it wanted to fly, should he take it outside to fly? What if it flew away and didn't co back?
Fang Ye stroked his chin: "That's why we have to take them outside for a bit of flying."
He Yifei imdiately nodded earnestly in agreent, "Indeed, we should take them outside for a flight. It'll be good for their physical and ntal health. They can't properly fly in this enclosure; staying inside all the ti, their wings will rust."
What's there to worry about? With the Director there, even tigers and wolves obey orders, let alone parrots flying off.
Although planning to let them fly, conducting the first flight in a quiet environnt with no disturbances was best. Fang Ye decided to wait until the visitors had left.
He instructed He Yifei, "For now, put on so music for them!"
A whirlwind of thoughts flew through He Yifei's mind as he seriously considered which music would be appropriate: "Xiaowen likes to listen to artistic music, maybe play 'South of the Southern Mountain,' 'Rainy Day,' 'What Kind of Love,' 'Autumn Won't Return'?"
Fang Ye turned around with a 'are you serious?' expression =_=||: "You haven't been playing these songs for them routinely, have you?"
He Yifei scratched his head, feeling a bit guilty. Wasn't Xiaowen fond of this kind of music?
Fang Ye made a vigorous wave of his hand, like Garen in the bushes delivering a fatal blow to a lost enemy champion: "Play sothing lively and festive! 'Good Luck Cos,' 'Happy New Year,' get those played!"
