Is There Any Law? They’re Raising Protected Animals Like Farm Pigs

(Livestream + No Romance + Comedy + Lighthearted) The variety show Animal Care has begun airing. Based on the locations and contestants, the program has selected three animal conservation centers. From the start, contestants must care for a nationally protected animal: the notoriously difficult golden pheasant. At the first center, the student caretakers believe animals should be cared for with tenderness. “Your hands are dirty and you’re feeding them? No, golden pheasants can’t eat food contaminated with hand sweat.” “They’re thirsty, so give them untreated water? No, it needs to be distilled at one hundred degrees and sterilized first.” At the second center, the student caretakers rely on high-tech methods. “The feed ratio is one to eight? No, the golden pheasants will only eat it if the figures are accurate to six decimal places.” “You’re using scissors by hand during delivery? No, you need specialized, expensive equipment.” As a result, after several years, they can barely raise a flock. Then there’s Guo Gang, the old hand caring for animals at the third center, which is livestreamed. The whole internet is stunned. Student: “You raise golden pheasants like wild chickens?” Guo Gang: “Sure do.” Student: “You chase them with a bamboo pole. Aren’t you afraid you’ll go to jail?” Guo Gang: “They need to be healthy to hatch chicks. Just look at how many I’ve raised.” Just when everyone online thinks Guo Gang is going to ruin the protected animals and spend the rest of his life behind bars, the number of protected animals he raises explodes. Netizen: “There are half a million golden pheasants now. Can we keep them as pets?” Netizen: “There are already dozens of giant pandas. It seems every elementary school in Sichuan has one.” Netizen: “Guo Gang, what else can you raise? You’re about to make the protected species list obsolete.”
