I have a wildlife zoo

Everyone marveled at the ring-tailed lemur's unique habit when they heard about it!

Using this strange posture, the ring-tailed lemur repeatedly rubbed its tail against its scent glands.

After a long bout of rubbing, it finally finished, standing its long tail erect like a Spartan donning a cape with a spear in hand, its diminutive frame radiating an aura of defiance.

Normally its tail was a curved question mark, but now it had become a straight flagpole, an unsheathed sword!

When it ran headlong into another lemur with its tail held high, their eyes instantly sharpened.

"Kid, you're quite arrogant! Do you not take me seriously?"

"Hmph, and you are some nameless nobody!"

"Let's see if you're still this tough after I defeat you!"

"Good, I was hoping you'd say that!"

Both ring-tailed lemurs then stood upright on their hind legs, butts in the air, as their long tails cleverly reached over their heads, waving up and down as if fanning themselves, it was as if they were fencing with their tails in a duel of swordplay!

They kept their gaze locked on each other. "I fan, I fan, I fan! Take this stink!"

"Now eat my stinky attack!"

Seeing this spectacle, onlookers couldn't help but remark, "So this is a duel between ring-tailed lemurs..."

"With all their bluster, I thought a fierce battle was about to erupt!"

"In a sense, it's quite intense..."

Fang Ye found the scene amusing and took out his phone to snap a few photos and record a video, for it was his first time witnessing such peculiar behavior from ring-tailed lemurs.

After a while, one of the lemurs on the right, either tired from wagging its tail or perhaps overwhelmed by the stench, started to slow down.

The one on the left saw its chance and made a pouncing gesture!

"Whoosh!" The lemur on the right, as though equipped with springs for paws, bounced swiftly off the ground. With a series of small and large leaps, it disappeared from sight in no time.

Zhuang Xiaobai clapped his hands, "Alright, that's enough fun with the ring-tailed lemurs, let's get to work."

The students raised their brushes enthusiastically in response, "Oh!"

Zhuang Xiaobai then started to set tasks and began sketching the outline on the wall, while Fang Ye stood by and watched for a bit before slipping away.

...

Originally, he had planned to go back to study, but then he remembered that it had been a while since he last visited Charcoal and the others. Missing them, he took a detour to the wolf exhibit.

The Wolf Exhibit!

He had just entered through the staff passage when he saw a lone wolf curled up on the grass not far away, looking rather solitary.

On hearing footsteps on the grass, the wolf lifted its eyelids for a brief glance at him.

Fang Ye wondered which wolf this was and knelt down in front of it, patting its head, "Lame Leg? Why are you always here by yourself; don't you play with the others?"

Lame Leg licked Fang Ye's palm and looked up at him silently.

"Alright then, if you prefer being by yourself," Fang Ye said, and with a wave, he walked away.

This was a wolf with a story!

It had the look of someone who'd been through a lot, perhaps an active member of the pack in its youth. But after many battles and the parting of friends, it had become reclusive.

Continuing forward, he scanned the exhibit area and soon spotted a few wolves on the hillside.

Yarn Ball was playing with Doudou; it seemed they were engaged in a game of hide-and-seek!

Doudou hid behind a tree, occasionally peering out quietly and looking around.

After checking Yarn Ball's position, quickly pulling back its head!

Yarn Ball sniffed the scents, looking into the woods, inching closer to Doudou's hiding spot.

Then, suddenly, Doudou sprang from behind the tree with an excited shout. Yarn Ball, taken by surprise, had its eyes wide open, and its tail shot up in shock, bouncing backwards, while Doudou was already rapidly running away.

Yarn Ball was startled for a moment but quickly recovered and dashed toward Doudou to give chase, both wolves running all the way to the pond before swiftly returning.

Doudou's speed was still a bit lacking and was soon caught by Yarn Ball. The two wolves tumbled to the ground, rolled a couple of times, and then both got up.

Hide and seek is a game that many animals play, starting from the time they are cubs, playing behind their mother's body.

Bushes, pits, hills, and rocks are all common hiding spots. The game is simple, but the fun is endless!

In the process of playing hide and seek, it's possible to exercise the abilities to hide, track, and run in pursuit—essential skills for survival in the wild.

Charcoal and Mizzle were also lying on the hillside, a few meters apart.

Although the two wolves were quite close, Mizzle always disliked Charcoal being too clingy. She quietly lay there watching Yarn Ball and Doudou chase and frolic around.

Charcoal positioned his hind legs like a frog, his body flat on the ground and head turned towards Mizzle, looking pitiful and lazily wagging his tail.

Then he got up and walked over to Mizzle!

Taking advantage of the moment Mizzle looked up and yawned, he quickly lowered his head and stuffed his mouth right into hers.

"Wifey, shall we kiss?"

Mizzle: …

If I say I don't want to kiss you, will you stay away?

After closing her mouth, Charcoal laid his paws on Mizzle's, lying beside her, gazing into her eyes affectionately, "Wifey, another kiss, shall we?"

He stuck out his tongue and licked Mizzle's nose!

Then with his rear end up in the air, he turned his head ninety degrees, stared straight at Mizzle, and licked her mouth with his tongue: "A kiss, a kiss!"

Mizzle, with no other choice, stuck out her tongue and licked Charcoal's mouth back!

Just as Charcoal was about to continue being affectionate with Mizzle, he suddenly saw Fang Ye and became excited, panting, "Pant, pant!"

He ran towards Fang Ye like the wind!

Boss, to not see you for a day is like an eternity! I've missed you so much!

Fang Ye squatted on the ground and hugged Charcoal, rubbing his head and grinning, "Every time I come to see you, you feed me dog food. Fortunately, now I also have a girlfriend!"

"Pant, pant!"

Charcoal stood up, paws on his shoulder, and let out a hot, wet tongue across his lips in a messy lick!

Boss, you seem to have eaten intestines for lunch!

"Hey hey!" Fang Ye was a bit helpless, letting Charcoal lick him a couple of times before pushing his head away.

The downside of coming to the wolf exhibit is that these wolves always want to get affectionate with him!

Charcoal was still eager to lick, but seeing Mizzle coming over, he quickly gave up his spot.

Mizzle's gaze conveyed satisfaction, "Good performance today!"

Once Mizzle had her turn, Yarn Ball, Doudou, Little Cabbage, and the others were already lining up nearby, all looking at Fang Ye expectantly.

Fang Ye, with no other choice, also let down his chin for them to lick!

The wolves in the wolf exhibit didn't have bad breath because the bones in the meat they're fed allow them to naturally clean their teeth while chewing on the bones.

Lying on the green grass of the hillside, Charcoal on the left hand, Mizzle on the right, and the other wolves lying nearby.

Lying there leisurely with them, blowing in the breeze, basking in the sun!

When the mood struck, he'd howl with the pack, joining in a chorus.

"Awooo~"

After Fang Ye howled once, the pack immediately responded, howling along in a melodious and joyful chorus.
