I have a wildlife zoo-Chapter 568 : Designing the Gibbon Exhibit

With the introduction of red-crowned cranes to the zoo, Fang Ye's mind became active.

Once they were on exhibit, a large sum of green leaf coins would be credited to the account, enabling him to think about what to build next and to start designing in advance.

The Predator Gallery was now under construction, with tigers, lions, wolves, bears, and leopards — all the most famous ones were present.

Primate Paradise only had ring-tailed lemurs, macaques, snow monkeys, and golden hair monkeys for now - snow monkeys were also macaques, which indeed felt a bit sparse.

Next, he could perhaps introduce some gibbons, which he was very fond of.

Compared to admiring various animals online, personally visiting the zoo offered experiences one could not get from watching videos or looking at pictures — visitors could listen, touch, and smell.

Take the panda exhibit, for example, each day the animal keepers would pick up fresh panda feces to be showcased to the visitors for a sniff — could you smell that through a video?

Visitors who smelled the panda feces would find it amazing, wow, this panda feces didn't smell bad at all but had a faint scent of bamboo and even smelled a bit like tea leaves.

Gibbons are one of the few mammals that sing in chorus, with males and females serenading each other — their melodious and lingering singing is completely different from the random shrieking of other monkeys.

Gibbons move as family units and have their own territories in the wild, singing in the early morning to signal to their neighbors that this is their domain.

If a gibbon is single, it could use its song to call out to the distant forest, seeing if there are single members of the opposite sex responding, courting through song.

Introducing gibbons meant that visitors could hear their beautiful chorus early in the morning when they visited the zoo.

The gibbon exhibit would be located behind ring-tailed lemur island, with an initial area set at 2000 square meters.

Gibbons didn't just move horizontally on the trees; they moved three-dimensionally up and down, forwards and backwards, left and right, jumping and walking from branch to branch.

To ensure gibbons were comfortable and provided a satisfying display, various trees of different heights were needed to create a three-dimensional environment.

The curvature and shape of the branches were also important and couldn't be randomly planted. There might even need to be some fallen trees, branches, ropes, and rocks to allow gibbons to move naturally and fluidly as if they were in the wild.

Tall trees provided shade to relieve them from the summer heat.

Outside was a four-meter-wide moat; animal keepers could reach the island by stepping on shallow stones or by a small boat, similar to the design of Lemur Island.

Though macaques were seen swimming joyfully in water, most primates were not adept swimmers. Visitors would be able to enjoy the exhibit without visual obstructions across the moat.

When the ring-tailed lemurs basked in the sunshine in the morning, they could just listen to their neighbors, the gibbons singing in the trees — the scene was interesting to imagine.

The details of the exhibit area were intricate, but there was no rush; there was time to design it slowly.

...

The hot spring resort was now in its final stage and would soon be open to visitors.

Although it wasn't ready for business yet, the hot springs were ready for a soak.

So, Fang Ye excitedly sent out a message to notify everyone, preparing for a hot spring barbecue!

Internal welfare, where the staff could experience the hot springs first.

Of course, you could have hot springs in the summer, it wasn't only when the weather got cold in winter.

And soaking in hot springs in the summer is actually quite comfortable. If you feel unbearably hot, just soak in the hot springs to relax your blood vessels and your whole body, dispelling the heat, and it won't feel so hot anymore.

Of course, you can't soak for too long. About 5 to 10 minutes is just about right.

It's rather dull to just soak in hot springs, so why not grill some barbecue while cooling down after a soak? That would be delightful.

The various vegetables planted in the small courtyard are continuously harvested as soon as the chives grow tall.

Those who have tasted the magical potatoes we harvested last time are haunted by its flavor, unable to forget it. Now, visitors to the Panda Restaurant occasionally ask when they can have those potatoes again, saying that price is not an issue.

This year, the farm we bought is still in a phase of soil enrichment. Once the soil there is ready, we will be able to provide a large supply of delicious vegetables and fruits for the restaurants.

Recently, we harvested another batch of potatoes, and Fang Ye, as usual, sent a bag to his mother, who was very happy to receive it. They were indeed delicious.

Grilled chives and grilled potatoes are both very tasty.

The cucumbers planted in the spring are ripe too, ready to be shared with everyone.

Of course, cucumbers don't need to be grilled. They can be eaten fresh.

Cucumbers grown with spiritual soil and spiritual water are each thick and long, pleasingly symmetrical, shining like beautiful jade under the sunlight, and emitting a pleasant, refreshing fragrance that soothes the heart and mind.

They have plenty of burrs on them, and they're crunchy and refreshing when eaten.

This time, it's not just friends shouting for a barbecue in the small courtyard—the staff can join in too.

Fang Ye announced in the group, "Now that the hot spring inn is completed, everyone can come over for a soak after the park closes! And I'm inviting everyone to a barbecue. I'll have the chef from the Lion Restaurant grill a whole lamb for us, along with a variety of grilled vegetables, all from my own organic garden."

He Yifei: "Woo hoo! Long live the Park Manager!"

Guan Shan: "Vegetables grown by the Park Manager, grilled meat from the chef, and hot springs to soak in, this is triple the joy!"

Lin Ying: "Wow, I'm drooling like crazy! Damn, why did you have to mention it so early, Manager? Now I can't focus on work because all I can think about is barbecue!"

Fang Ye: "No slacking! Work properly and keep it up until evening."

Lin Ying: "Roger that!"

Meng Shi: "But can you really soak in hot springs in the summer? /Confused"

Zhang: "No problem at all. I'm from Bayuquan, and when I was going to school, the whole family would go for a few hot spring soaks regardless of the season. After soaking, we'd feel incredibly relaxed and sleep soundly at night. Heh heh, our zoo is really a treasure land, even with a hot spring. Now this is comfort."

Bao: "I've always been looking forward to the hot spring inn being finished so I can take a soak. I've waited so long! Why did everything else in our zoo get built so fast but the hot spring inn took so long?"

Fang Ye internally complained that this system's construction speed simply couldn't compare to that of a regular construction team.

Guan Shan: "Right, speaking of soaking in the hot springs, do we need to prepare swimsuits or anything? I don't have any!"

Fang Ye said, "No worries, there are swimsuits available at the hot spring inn! Consider it a gift from me, one set per person. And you ladies don't need to worry about feeling awkward in swimsuits, there are mixed baths as well as separate ones for men and women."

At that moment, quite a few men inwardly sighed in disappointment!

It would have been a pleasing sight to soak in the hot springs together and see the swimsuits.
