Chapter 583 - 501: Big Gold: Sis, Watch Me—I’m Super Good at Feeding! (Part 2)
But there’s indeed a big problem.
First of all, those golden cats are not pure wild animals. They have already adapted to captivity and artificial feeding. Bringing them into the wild, whether or not they’ll unleash their instincts is uncertain, but they’ll definitely feel scared.
Moreover, the place to build the animal shed must have a water source and enough facilities for sewage treatment and disinfection.
The emergency station is not as strict because most of the animals there are temporary residents. They’ll be transferred to the animal shed area of the protection station for further treatment after surgery.
The animal sheds of the protection station had these issues considered during the initial design.
As for Jinya and them, the mountains and forests are so vast; everywhere could serve as their litter box, so Chen Ying doesn’t need to worry about this issue.
After a few days of brainstorming and extensive communication with Yin Li and colleagues from the Provincial Forestry and Grassland Bureau Wild Protection Department who are responsible for supervising this matter, the location was tentatively fixed next to the stone beach area downstream of Old Bear Gully.
The woods there are sparse, providing plenty of open space, and water sources are relatively convenient. Most importantly, it’s Big Gold’s territory, and on the opposite side of the river is a new, young, and strong golden cat.
The design and construction are handled by a professional engineering team, and Chen Ying only needs to provide technical support later on.
Since the construction of cages outside the usual location requires the addition of some inspection equipment, we definitely can’t run to the emergency station for every little issue that arises.
As for managing and caring for the cages, staffing issues are easily solved.
Each of the three zoos provides one person, who will take care of duties in three shifts. Plus, Chen Ying and Little Sen will also come over to help during the day, so the workload isn’t too heavy.
