The golden python was stolen.
On the morning of June 8th, 2065438+03, "Brother Walking Snake" posted in Changzhou Hualong Lane Forum, "I got reliable news that' Little Darling' died. Does Wujin Agriculture and Forestry Bureau really dare to steal bars? Take another golden python as a' little scorpion' to identify it. "
As mentioned in the post, Xiao Guai was 3.65 meters long and weighed 53 pounds when he was detained. Brother snake walker wondered, "I can't be thinner, but the zoo is only three meters long." In addition, the little darling has been there for almost a year. He should have grown taller, and it should be nearly four meters. Didn't you say protect? How can you protect it to death? " In this regard, "snake brother" said that he insisted on suing the Agriculture and Forestry Bureau and told the end.
Later, Tian Hui, the snake runner, said, "I learned from my friends that Xiaopi has been dead for several days. I have been waiting for Wujin Agriculture and Forestry Bureau to send me a notice of punishment so that I can sue normally, but it has not been sent to me yet. It turned out that there was a reason. "
As for the body length of the golden python "Little Darling", Tian Hui said that he had measured it and it was 3.65 meters. "Little darling was sent to the zoo for almost a year. Under normal circumstances, you should molt three times. Molting once should be 8- 10 cm long, and molting three times should be at least 24 cm long. That is to say, it should be close to four meters now, and the golden python in the zoo is obviously still.
Tian Hui said that Wujin District Agriculture and Forestry Bureau informed him to identify the golden python "Little Darling" again. In this regard, Tian Hui said that he did not understand. He said it had been appraised before, so why should it be appraised now? Is there something fishy in this? He speculated that something had happened to "Little Darling".
Agriculture and Forestry Department: alive and well.
For the statement that "Little Darling" was stolen, the stationmaster Bian of the Forestry Workstation of Wujin District Agriculture Bureau thought it was nonsense. He said, "The golden python is alive and well now. How can it die?" The stationmaster thinks that Tian Hui, the "snake walker", has no evidence on the Internet. If he has any questions, he can go to the scene to see the situation of the golden python, or he can entrust others to understand it. "Without any factual basis, he (Tian Hui) made a complete rumor."
"Why hasn't Tian Hui's punishment notice been given to him?" The stationmaster explained: "The golden python has always been a matter of great concern to everyone, and our superiors have also asked us to properly handle this matter. We have not been dragging our feet all the time, just want to make this thing more complete. " At noon yesterday, the stationmaster Bian has asked relevant experts to identify the golden python "Little Darling" and confirm that it is a national first-class protected animal. Next, they will follow the procedure.
The zoo clearly stated that it was the same snake.
Regarding the question of whether the golden python has died, the person in charge of Yancheng Wildlife Park clearly denied it. "This is a mobster." He also said that Tian Hui had raised the issue of snakes losing weight before, and the zoo had also improved the food. Now it has been feeding beef and chicken.
Regarding the problem that "Little Darling" became shorter, the person in charge of the surname Lu agreed to measure the body length of "Little Darling". Soon, a staff member came to the scene with a tape measure. The person in charge of the surname Lu and the staff walked into the glass room from the side door.
Measurement of garden staff: the body length is 3.3 meters, which is reduced by 12 cm.
It is easy to measure the body length, but it is difficult to measure the exact length of a live python. The person in charge of the surname Lu and the staff first carried the golden python onto the glass, intending to measure it horizontally. But the golden python is not obedient at all. As soon as it was put down, it deflected its head and intended to swim to the edge of the inner wall. In desperation, the staff caught the tail of the golden python. Unexpectedly, it can't catch its tail at all. As soon as it touched its tail, the golden python began to curl up and swim more distorted.
After a while, the head of Lu swam to the inner wall with the golden python. When he almost straightened up, he stretched the tape measure and measured it.
Soon, the person in charge of Lu came out of the glass room and told everyone that the length of this golden python is 3.3 meters. At the beginning, the golden python entered the park for 3.42 meters, but now it has been shortened by 12 cm.
When she was sent to the zoo for the first time, Tian Hui also disagreed with the length of the golden python. He said it was 3.65 meters.
Media reporter's measurement: the body length is 2.6 meters, which has shrunk by 82 centimeters.
As several media colleagues present objected to the measurement made by Mr. Lu, who thought that the measurement length was obviously too long, Mr. Lu agreed that media reporters would go into the glass room together for measurement.
After that, the reporter and three other colleagues, as well as the head of Lu, walked into the glass room. It rained yesterday, the outdoor temperature was low, the air conditioner was turned on inside, and the glass room was warm. In the face of so many people, the golden python is not shy, but is not good at all, swimming around.
Some media colleagues slowly touched the head of the snake several times, and the golden python seemed to calm down slowly. Then, it swam slowly forward in an S shape. Taking this opportunity, the media colleagues began to measure the golden python with a tape measure from the top of the head, and then slowly pulled it back in an S shape until it reached the tip of the tail, which was about 2.4 meters. Considering the snake's bending, several reporters lowered the tape measure to 2.6 meters.
However, for the measurement result of 2.6 meters, the person in charge of Lu said that he did not recognize it.
Yancheng Wildlife Park: This will happen during feeding.
Even at 3.3 meters, the golden python is shorter than the original 12 cm. Will snakes get shorter when they grow up? In this regard, the person in charge of Yancheng Wildlife Park Lu explained that it was summer when I first entered the park, and the temperature was high in July and August. It's June now. The temperature is low these days, and I lost some weight when feeding, so the body length of the golden python is shorter than before. He also said that, like golden pythons, sometimes the reproductive process will be shortened.
Nanjing Hongshan Zoo: I haven't seen it, so I can't give a definite answer.
Will golden pythons get shorter during feeding? A person in charge of Nanjing Hongshan Forest Zoo said that their zoo also has golden pythons, but so far no shortening of body length has been found.
"I also went online to find information about the shortening of snakes in the process of breeding, but I didn't find any information about golden pythons. Our zoo has not studied these situations. " The person in charge said that this question cannot give a clear answer.
