I have a wildlife zoo

The first ball game ended, and it was the Poet Team, with better coordination, that won the match.

Win or lose, everyone seemed full of zest, and their conversations grew much louder, a far cry from their previous sullenness without visitors, marking a complete turnaround in spirits.

The goal of ensuring the parrots enjoyed themselves was achieved.

The online viewers were also charmed by the parrots' vigor, feeling much more relaxed.

After receiving their food rewards, Jinzhi and the others couldn't wait to fly back to the field, ready for another round.

This time the team members were shuffled.

After several games, both teams had their share of wins and losses.

After the strenuous athletic competition, they seemed a bit tired.

Fang Ye said to Jin Martin and the others, "Take a break if you're tired, I'll leave the ball court here for you, play whenever you want."

He then smiled at the camera, "It's still early, I can take everyone around for a bit more, since there's nothing else going on now."

"Let's go see Ice Cake and Jiaojiao!"

"Xiaoqiao, Xiaoqiao! Sugar Pack!"

"I want to see the red panda!"

Fang Ye thought for a moment and snapped his fingers, "Right, let's go check out the cultural exposition area, the maple leaves there are beautiful."

In this season, the north was already bitterly cold, withering all the vegetation, while in Linhai, where it was the coldest time of the year, the maple trees were at their most vividly red and beautiful.

Walking along the path of the cultural exposition area, there were fiery red maple leaves fallen on the light green grass, forming a continuous, soft red carpet.

Light golden Sunshine sprinkled upon clusters of fiery red maple leaves. When the mountain breeze blew, the maple leaves swayed gently, producing rhythmic rustling sounds. Some leaves were blown from the treetops, slowly drifting down like dancing butterflies, looking incredibly romantic.

Through the red maples, the Sunshine also exhibited a golden luster, like an orange-red sunset reflecting through the woods, offering a fairy-tale-like sensation.

The viewers watching the dreamlike scenery were amazed!

"Wow, so beautiful! These are truly 'fiery' maple leaves!"

"I can feel the joy through the screen, it's so beautiful…"

"This is just too gorgeous, is this heaven?"

"I wish I could lie on those maple leaves and sleep an entire afternoon away!"

"I dream of living in such an environment."

"Three Rivers Brigand" tipped an airplane!

"Five Zero Four" tipped 10 rice balls!

Fang Ye picked up a maple leaf and showed it off to the camera.

Under the Sunshine, the maple leaf appeared crystal clear, with the veins prominent like capillaries, shimmering with the last brilliant splendor of life.

He recited softly, "The little maple secretly drank overnight dew, but relied on the lonely pine to conceal its drunken hue."

In the romantic imagination of poets, the maple tree might have stolen some wine, which is why the leaves turned so red.

In fact, it's due to the drop in temperature, as the green color in leaves comes from chlorophyll. When it gets cold, trees begin to reduce the nutrients and water they provide to the leaves. Chlorophyll decreases and is replaced by anthocyanin and carotenoids, bringing yellow and red hues to the leaves!

Generally speaking, October is perfect for enjoying maple leaves. However, in Linhai, due to the warmer climate, maple trees only begin to turn yellow in October, with December being the prime season for viewing.

It's now January, and these maple leaves will probably wither away soon."

"Our director really is erudite! A poet at heart. Be honest, is there anything you can't do?"

"My heart longs to go, too bad I can't visit the zoo right now! I'll have to wait until next year."

Arrived at the red fox exhibit.

In the red fox exhibit, a small amount of snow had been laid out in the activity area.

Pristine white snowflakes settled upon the fiery red maple leaves, weighing them down, swaying back and forth with the breeze.

There was a spot where the snow was exceptionally thick, piled up to 30 centimeters—this was for the foxes to play at burrowing in the snow.

Sugar Pack ran back and forth, wagging her fluffy tail, leaving her own footprints in the soft fallen leaves and snow piles, occasionally lowering her head to sniff around.

Having fattened up and swapped for fluffy, soft winter fur, she looked chubbier than usual, and the fur on the tip of her tail was even whiter.

Although Sugar Pack was the affectionate type, she could still have lots of fun by herself when there were no visitors around.

There were no other foxes in sight; they probably felt the weather was too cold and had snuggled into their warm nests to sleep.

Sugar Pack came to a particularly thick pile of snow and cocked her head at it, as if awakening some kind of instinct within her.

She agilely leaped onto a nearby stone and crouched down slightly.

Tonight, she would have a delightful hunt!

With a bound, she leapt up gracefully like an elegant diver, her body tracing a beautiful arc in the air!

Her entire body plunged into the snow pile, leaving only a big tail exposed, waving back and forth.

It looked like a "fox radish"! The swaying tail was like the leaves of a radish.

Soon, the tail vanished from sight, and a fox head covered in white frost popped out from beneath the snow pile.

Sugar Pack vigorously shook her head from side to side to cast off the snowflakes, then crawled out like a caterpillar, having a genuinely great time.

"So cute!"

"Hahahaha, this fox really knows how to have fun!"

"Too funny, acting just like a goofy floof."

Fang Ye laughed, "Have any of you heard of a palm strike technique that descends from the heavens? This is the legendary skill of the fox species, the Fox Ascent Palm Strike!

Just kidding, this is actually a very common hunting technique among foxes! Foxes use their keen hearing to detect the activity of small animals; then they leap into the air and come crashing down, able to break through the thick snow to capture their prey."

After Sugar Pack emerged from the snow pile, she pressed her chin against the snow and lay there, refusing to get up.

Lying in the snow pile, she seemed to be sinking into a soft, comfy mattress.

She kicked her legs and swayed her body from side to side, the fluffy big tail also swishing around, sweeping out traces in the snow.

Squinting her eyes in contentment, she resembled a cat that had sniffed some catnip.

Oh boy, rolling in the snow feels so good!

When Fang Ye entered the activity area, he greeted with a cheerful smile, "Sugar Pack, I've come to see you!"

Upon hearing someone approaching, Sugar Pack immediately pricked up her ears!

Looking at Fang Ye, she wondered if he had seen her rolling around just now?

If the aloof Xiaoqiao had been spotted in such a fox-dignity-losing scene, it would have hidden away in embarrassment straight away.

But Sugar Pack didn't mind and happily ran over instead.

She reached Fang Ye's feet and playfully bit at his shoelaces.

Fang Ye quickly stopped her, "Hey, you can't bite the shoelaces!"

Sugar Pack then "yipped" and acted coquettishly, Park Keeper, I've missed you!

Fang Ye stretched out both palms and chuckled as he rubbed Sugar Pack's fluffy neck and cheeks.

Sugar Pack willingly lifted her neck to make it easier for Fang Ye to stroke her!

She looked utterly obedient, her eyes gradually narrowing, making the viewers envious.

Fang Ye gently pinched Sugar Pack's ears and inquired, "Where are Xiaoqiao and the others? Are they sleeping?"

Joyfully running ahead, Sugar Pack led the way.
