[What? The ranch owner’s cal is lost? Is this for real?]
The old fans who just entered the livestream room couldn’t help but feel a bit schadenfreude when they saw the barrage of comnts.
[Haha, just said a couple of days ago it wouldn’t get lost!]
[Sure enough, without soone watching, problems are bound to happen!]
[Seeing the ranch owner suffer a small loss, why do I feel a bit happy!]
The comnts were very lively.
Jiang Feng, Ma He, and Luo Jinzhu were riding horses together, galloping across the prairie.
The speed of the three horses wasn’t fast.
After running for a while, Jiang Feng took out his phone to check the location of the lead cal.
The cal was a distance away from the ranch, seems to have been gone for a day or two, already quite far away.
The only fortunate thing is, the lead cal is heading back towards the ranch.
Which ans, they are on their way back ho.
Jiang Feng slightly paused, opened the microphone in the livestream room, and said:
"According to the location, my cals are heading back, though they have gone very far."
"When cals are free-roaming, they can be out for days to months, but I have dedicated pastures and water sources, so usually, cals don’t venture into such remote areas."
"Luckily this area has no natural predators for cals, their size is so big that even wolves don’t dare to ss with them."
"Otherwise it would have been quite dangerous."
After saying this, he turned off the livestream audio again.
[Are the cals heading back already?]
[Oh, I thought I could see the ranch owner losing his cals!]
[It’s normal for cals to wander far; people who raise cals are used to it and will go out on motorcycles to look for them when the weather is good.]
[That’s why free-roaming cals usually have trackers, otherwise it’s a hassle to find them!]
Jiang Feng said to Ma He and Luo Jinzhu:
"We have sixteen kiloters left, at this rate we’ll only be back by nightfall."
"Let’s speed up a bit."
Both of them responded, "Okay."
The three continued to run towards the edges of the ranch.
The only fortunate thing is, the weather has been good these days; it’s been sunny and the wind has cald down a bit.
When the wind is strong, it doesn’t need to snow; just the snow on the ground is enough for the wind to blow it everywhere, covering the entire world.
The livestream visuals were pretty wild, attracting a lot of viewers.
Gradually, the three walked out from the edge of the ranch.
There’s a clear boundary here, with rows of sand-resistant forests outside which separate the desolate wilderness from the internal pastures, protecting the ranch’s environnt.
After that, it’s the desolate wildlands.
Desolate to the point where you can’t see a trace of plants on the ground.
Even in sumr, only lone weeds punctuate the area.
Because sand and wind blow in from ti to ti, such wild plants find it hard to survive.
"We’re out, keep an eye on the outside."
Jiang Feng reminded the two.
"Yeah, keeping an eye out."
Ma He responded.
Jiang Feng checked the satellite location on his phone and continued to move forward.
He was about three kiloters away from the herd of lost cals.
Jiang Feng, Ma He, and Luo Jinzhu picked up the pace.
Before long, Jiang Feng finally saw the lost cals from the ranch.
Not far away, the cals were grouped together, leisurely walking back.
Cals are naturally tall, and when a group walks together, they make quite an impressive sight.
A hint of joy appeared on Jiang Feng’s face, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then operated his phone to open the livestream audio.
"Found them, my cals are over there, looks like they are heading back."
"No need to worry."
With that, Jiang Feng glanced over at the cal herd again.
Gradually, his brows furrowed, and the doubts in his eyes grew deeper.
"Old Luo, how many cals did the ranch lose?"
Jiang Feng asked Luo Jinzhu.
"Twenty-four, I counted several tis." Luo Jinzhu imdiately replied.
Jiang Feng pulled out a telescope from his coat to look further.
Then he started counting.
"1, 2, 3....."
"23, 24, 25, 26, 27..."
"I see at least over forty cals, and there are more behind!"
"What’s going on?"
Jiang Feng murmured softly.
The viewers in the livestream room heard Jiang Feng’s words and laughed.
[So, lost twenty-sothing cals, and got back over forty?]
[Wow, is this an unexpected gain?]
[Hahaha, looks like the ranch owner’s cals ended up bringing back soone else’s cals!]
[Still don’t know which pastoralist’s cals those are!]
[These cals are probably males, went out looking for wildflowers, huh, n!]
At this mont, Jiang Feng didn’t know what to say.
Even Ma He and Luo Jinzhu didn’t expect this situation.
Jiang Feng used his telescope to observe carefully.
After watching for a while, he discovered so clues.
He saw several cals with smaller bodies and smaller humps, but their bodies were stronger.
Dosticated cals have full, high, and sturdy humps, which can be held onto when riding.
But wild cals have smaller, delicate humps and cannot be ridden.
At first glance, one can easily distinguish between dostic cals and wild cals.
Jiang Feng’s eyes revealed a hint of shock.
"Impossible, wild cals? Are there wild cals in the Xing League area?"
Jiang Feng murmured softly.
He initially thought that his cals had brought back cals from soone else’s herd, as this had happened before. Generally, cals have markings that can tell them apart.
But upon closer inspection, Jiang Feng noticed that these cals looked quite different from dostic ones.
If they were indeed wild cals, then the situation was quite significant.
According to statistics, the number of wild cals worldwide is less than 1,000, with about 700 living in Huaxia, primarily distributed across the Kumtag Desert and Taklamakan Desert regions.
To protect these rare wild animals, the governnt has set up several artificial watering pools in the wildlife protection areas, providing both fresh water and saltwater zones for different animals.
Therefore, besides wild cals, rare animals like the Tibetan wild ass, ermine wolf, and gooseneck antelope are monitored and protected.
But now, after a stroll, the cals of Jiangfeng Ranch brought back a herd of wild cals.
Looks like there are fewer than thirty.
Jiang Feng was still in disbelief. After watching for a while, he said to the online viewers:
"Those extra cals seem to be wild Bactrian cals."
"Wild Bactrian cals are extrely rare, classified as a first-level protected animal with a very high level of protection."
"Like species such as the Tibetan antelope and Tibetan wild ass, once found, they must be specially protected."
"Let’s put it this way, for these wild cals, the Forestry Bureau might have to establish a protected area for them."
"It’s too outrageous. I’m numb."
His words excited the viewers in the live-stream.
[Wow, wild cals? This is rare indeed!]
[First-level protected animals, the na alone sounds intimidating!]
[It’s unbelievable, it really seems like wild cals, and the deep desert of the Xing League actually has wild cals!]
[This is a big deal, the ranch owner is likely to trend!]
[Dostic cals: Ranch owner, look at the treasures I’ve brought you!]
Ma He and Luo Jinzhu seed a bit nervous.
Pastoralists on the grasslands make a living from herding and are well aware of the protection level of wild animals.
Now that wild animals are rare, pastoralists typically protect them when encountered.
After all, even a slight injury can be very troubleso.
There aren’t many wild cals worldwide, and ordinary people are not allowed into the protected areas in the Tibetan Area, so one can imagine how significant the country’s protection efforts are.
Now his cals are mingling with these wild ones.
It’s truly challenging.
Seeing this, Jiang Feng took out his phone and dialed the police station.
Whenever there’s trouble, call the police.
"Hello, Maodeng Police Station, may I ask what’s the matter?"
Bater’s voice ca from the other end of the line.
"Bater, it’s , Jiang Feng."
Jiang Feng didn’t expect Bater to be on duty today, so he called him directly by na.
"Jiang Feng, what’s up? Has the Golden Eagle gone to your ranch again?"
Bater, hearing it was Jiang Feng, also relaxed his tone and jokingly asked.
Bater was originally joking, the situation with the Golden Eagle and White Wolf made him think Jiang Feng’s ranch was peculiar, as it seed that wild animals enjoyed visiting there.
Although other ranches frequently have incidents like injured protected animals, seldom do they occur twice or even thrice in one place.
"It’s not the Golden Eagle, it’s wild cals," Jiang Feng replied seriously.
"Wild cals?" Bater was stunned.
There really is sothing going on!
"Watch my live-stream, my cals got lost a few days ago, I went out to search and found they’ve seemingly brought back a group of wild cals."
"Wild cals?!!"
Bater couldn’t believe it and asked again.
"I shouldn’t be wrong, they’re about to walk over." Jiang Feng said again.
"Aren’t wild cals supposed to be in the desert over in the Tibetan Area?" Bater asked while opening his phone, slightly shocked.
"From the edge of the ranch outward, there are hundreds of thousands of acres of desert that probably no one has entered for a hundred years; it’s normal for them to erge seeking food in winter."
"Okay, let take a look, then I’ll have to report it upwards. I can’t handle this matter myself either."
Bater hung up the phone and started watching Jiang Feng’s live-stream.
At this ti, the cal herd just happened to walk in front of Jiang Feng.
The drone fild the animals in the distance.
Getting closer, everyone could see more clearly.
Among these cals, there were over twenty that looked quite different from dostic cals.
They had smaller humps, smaller bodies, but appeared more robust.
Wild cals were very vigilant and quite fierce.
The three of Jiang Feng rode horses and stood not far away, and the wild cals, seeing them, all stopped moving.
The cals Jiang Feng raised continued to walk back.
The two groups of cals separated a bit, and then the dostic cals turned around to look at the wild ones.
"They really are wild cals!"
"No one knows how long they’ve lived inside."
Jiang Feng sighed.
He called his cals to walk back while he counted them one by one.
Not missing a single one, exactly 24 were there.
The lost cals were all present.
The group of wild cals glanced towards Jiang Feng and did not continue inward.
The leader of the wild cals glanced at Jiangfeng Ranch’s cals then turned around leading the herd back.
Thus, the two groups of cals parted ways.
Jiang Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
"For wild cals, the wilderness is more suitable for them. Their physical constitution and living habits are like that."
"This is different from dostic cals; it can’t be changed."
"However, the Forestry Bureau might beco busy over this matter."
