Fang Mingyuan remembered that in his previous life, he had seen that due to inbreeding of the South China tigers bred in China, five or six out of ten newborn tiger cubs could not grow up healthily, and some even appeared deformed.Moreover, even if they grow into adult tigers, their body size is obviously smaller than that of wild South China tigers captured before, and their physical fitness has declined, so they are more likely to get sick.

Wang Yugang gave Fang Mingyuan a surprised look. He didn't expect that this young man knew about the degeneration of tiger species. "We have also taken this into consideration, so from the very beginning, we numbered the eight Siberian tigers and recorded in detail the parents of each newly born Siberian tiger, so as to avoid the decline of genetic diversity caused by inbreeding. So far, the time is still short, and the Siberian tigers raised in the center can also guarantee to avoid the occurrence of inbreeding. From a long-term perspective, if we can capture new wild Siberian tigers, that is of course the best. If we say No, we want to cooperate with the Soviet Union to introduce wild Siberian tigers from there, so as to improve the tiger species. But now it seems that we may not have the funds to carry out this plan.”

Fang Mingyuan nodded. It seems that Director Wang Yugang is quite thoughtful about all aspects of the center's future development, except for the lack of funds.

He was right. In theory, as long as the Heihe Daozi Feline Breeding Center persists through the most difficult days in recent years, it can initially realize the goal of raising tigers with tigers.You must know that in China, Chinese medicine has always had a tradition of using multiple parts of the tiger's body for medicinal purposes, among which tiger bones are the most important.Products such as tiger bone pills, tiger bone paste, tiger bone glue, and tiger bone wine were once popular in the world.At most, there were [-] to [-] enterprises producing tiger bone-related products in China. On average, thousands of kilograms of tiger bones were used every year, and the annual output value exceeded [-] million yuan.

But...he probably doesn't know that within a few years, this seemingly perfect industrial chain will collapse overnight before the center can produce benefits.What awaits them in the future is a torment that will last for more than ten years, until Fang Ming passed away.At that time, under the pressure of the international community, the country completely banned the trade of tiger products, and at the same time deleted tiger bones from China's Pharmacopoeia.Fang Mingyuan remembered that this incident should have happened in the mid-90s.As a result, the tiger breeding industry has become a pure investment industry with no return.

Wang Yugang and Li Guangcheng exchanged glances. After talking for a while, both of them noticed that the young man in front of them was extraordinary.It wasn't how luxurious his clothes were, nor was his knowledge admirable, but the temperament of a superior who seemed to have everything under control, which made the two of them feel as if they were talking to the officials in the province.And the two of them could also see that the four tables on the second floor, with nearly ten people, seemed to be all together.And the others all looked like subordinates of this young man.The two of them, who gritted their molars to treat guests, knew how expensive the dishes in this western restaurant were, and this one, even his subordinates also brought them for dinner, how much would it cost!

"According to ecologists, in an ecosystem, the higher the biodiversity and the richer the species, the more stable the system; on the contrary, the more fragile the system becomes, the more prone to catastrophic changes. Therefore, not only Siberian tiger, any species in this ecosystem has its own role in regulating, regulating ecological balance and species balance. As the creature at the top of the food chain, the importance of tigers is self-evident. And animals have a certain The excellent genes in this aspect may be used by humans in the future. If this species is extinct, these genes will naturally not be found again. This is an immeasurable loss. And as the largest and most powerful tiger among the existing tigers The Siberian tiger is also of great value in Chinese culture. There are often descriptions of tigers in ancient Chinese literature, ancient paintings, and poems. I myself can’t imagine that if a child asks Wu Song to fight a tiger in the future, what kind of animal is a tiger? At that time, I could only point to the catwalk, what kind of feeling was there when it was a ferocious carnivore hundreds of times larger than it." Wang Yugang continued.Everyone fell silent.

It can only be said that this is a kind of sadness, just like now people can only use portraits and fossils to imagine the elephant bird, which was once the largest bird in the world.The elephant bird, also known as the dragon bird, mainly lives in the forests of Madagascar, Africa, the fourth largest island in the world. "Longniao" means "high raised bird".In terms of size, it is much taller than the ostrich, the largest bird in the world. More than 300 years ago, it could be called the largest bird in the world.Its eggs are also much larger than ostrich eggs.The number of dragon birds has always been small.By the 17th century, the number of residents in Madagascar had increased to more than ten times before, and they accelerated the progress of developing nature and plundering natural resources.A large area of ​​forest was cut down and turned into farmland, making the long birds homeless, and many long birds died as a result. 1649 was the last year that the local residents were able to record and kill the Lun bird.Since then, human beings have never found any traces of Lunornis, and its title of the world's largest bird has also been handed over to ostriches under human interference.

"Director Wang, how much is a dead tiger worth in the market now?" Although he had heard about the prices of some tiger products in his previous life, Fang Mingyuan still wanted to confirm it from Wang Yugang.

"This thing, to be precise, has a price but no market. At least there is no open market." Wang Yugang hesitated and said, "From the perspective of overseas prices, the size of a tiger skin ranges from 10,000+ to 20 It’s all possible, tiger bones cost 8000 yuan a kilogram, tiger claws cost 3000 yuan a piece, and fresh tiger meat, someone once offered me [-] yuan a kilogram.”

Fang Mingyuan thought about it in his mind. An adult Siberian tiger must weigh more than [-] kilograms. Even if some of them are useless, their value will be close to one million yuan. Don't those poachers dare to take risks.

"Isn't it true that just these tigers in your center are worth nearly [-] million yuan?" Lin Lian was also surprised.

Li Guangcheng sighed and said, "It's worth nearly [-] million yuan, and it can't be spent. Tigers are national first-class protected animals. Even if they are bred by us, they can't be slaughtered casually, and they can't be sold outside. There is money on the books, but cash is not enough." It’s useless to come out! Now that the tigers are starving, the employees in the center are also counting on getting some money to prepare for New Year’s Day, but on this account, alas..."

The five of them fell silent. Fang Mingyuan could understand the depression in their hearts. This made an achievement, but it became a burden instead.The staff of the breeding center are also human beings, they also have families, parents, wives and children, and they have to work hard to make a living. Now not only can they not get rewards from the government, but they can't even get the salary they deserve. How can they feel balanced.As the leaders of the center, they must have a difficult life.

It's just that this kind of animal protection work is not a business for money. It should have been invested by the state. If they asked them to allocate more funds from their hands, it would be better to expect Grandet to make a kind donation.Unless it is said that the Heihe Daozi Feline Breeding Center has received continuous attention from the central government or some big boss in the province, otherwise, in recent years, there is no need to expect the province to meet the financial needs of the center.

Fang Mingyuan recalled the information about Siberian tiger breeding in his previous life, tapping his fingers on the table subconsciously.To help is to help. In my previous life, I was just a half-home boy with no rights, no money, and no power. As for wild Siberian tigers that are on the verge of extinction, and breeding Siberian tigers frequently starve to death, I have no intentions. It is necessary to make efforts for the reproduction of Siberian tigers.

It is not impossible for Fang Mingyuan to donate hundreds of thousands or even millions to the center, but the Heihe Daozi Feline Breeding Center cannot always rely on losses to survive.And as the number of tigers increases, the funding gap will become larger and larger.Although no matter how big he is, with Fang Mingyuan's current net worth, as long as a part of his annual income is set aside, it will be enough to fill the gap, but this is not a long-term solution after all.Teach a man to fish rather than give him a fish!

Wang Yugang and Li Guangcheng secretly exchanged glances, it seems that there is a connection, this young man of unknown origin may be able to help him solve some difficulties.This is the east corner of the lost, and the sangyu harvested. I thought that the money spent here was a waste of money, but I didn't expect to meet a noble person.

"Director Wang, Section Chief Li, have you ever thought that with the current number of tigers in your center, you can build a tiger garden in this ice city and open it to tourists for them to watch tigers up close? I think , which is still quite attractive to a lot of people.”

"Watching tigers up close? How close?" Wang Yugang asked strangely.The tigers in the zoo are either in the Tiger Mountain, where tourists watch them condescendingly, or in cages, watching them through iron fences. The distance is not too far.

"The two of you have seen Animal World, and it has been mentioned that in many countries in Africa, there are large-scale wildlife sanctuaries. Tourists can also enter the sanctuaries to watch wild animals accompanied by guides, such as Talk about giraffes, bison, and even lions. It’s just different from being in a zoo. People sit in a car and look at animals that can move freely outside the car. Between the two sides, there is only a layer of glass windows with barbed wire and iron sheets. Car body." Fang Mingyuan said casually.
