Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl Chapter 52 – Chapter 52 Chapter 52 Brother Ying The International

Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Brother Ying, The International Long-Distance Call (Sister breaks out of prison and charges to the rescue upon hearing her brother is in danger!) Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Brother Ying, The International Long-Distance Call (Sister breaks out of prison and charges to the rescue upon hearing her brother is in danger!) The scent of battle carried off into the distance with the mountain winds.

The nearest to the battlefield was the Sichuan Golden Monkey Group.

A bunch of monkeys, never ones to shy away from a spectacle, gathered round, quickly claiming the best spots in the peanut gallery.

Following them was the Long-tailed Owl Mother.

But wood owls, not very lively during the day, watched a while, and once certain their territory wasn't threatened, flapped their wings and flew back.

Mama Panda was the first to arrive on the scene.

She embodied the adage “For the strength of the mother is second to none” to the fullest.

Upon arriving, she charged straight at the Black Bear.

Don't ask; the tactic was clear: deal with external threats before internal struggles.

The street rat Black Bear, in the throes of battle with the Social Panda, found a formidable Mama Panda crashing the party.

Come on, are you and your hubbie teaming up against me alone? Got any shame?

The street rat Black Bear was a sly one, not one to take hits if he could avoid them. Taking advantage of being toppled, he tucked and rolled, kicking up dust and stones as he rolled into a ravine.

The Social Panda was set to give chase, but then, catching sight of Mama Bear out of the corner of his eye, he broke into a goofy grin.

Mama Bear had no interest in why he was going nuts, raising her right front paw to swat at the big head, all the while growling menacingly.

“I'm going, don't be mad.”

The Social Panda had no intention of further inciting Mama Bear's wrath, turning around and running a distance before stopping to watch.

Seeing her mother, Sesame scrambled down the tree in a fluster, and before touching the ground, was tossed by the ear onto the dirt by Mama Bear.

This recklessly troublesome bear cub, might as well be discarded.

As Mama Panda was roaring and hitting Sesame, Mendun'er ran over.

Having lived comfortably in the Rescue Station, with someone to groom its fur, its glowingly white hair stabbed at Mama Bear's eyes.

“Roar, what are you doing here? Did you teach your little brother to run away from home?”

Mendun'er hit the brakes with its butt, looking bewilderedly at its mother.

“Baa, it definitely wasn't me. If I were him, I'd never leave Mom!”

Finding one's own food is never as sweet as being fed by mom; any bear knows which option to choose.

Mama Panda looked at her eldest daughter and youngest son, so angry her belly shook, opening her mouth to curse them out.

Yin Li and the others were much slower to arrive, and by the time they did, the fight had ceased.

Now, it was Mama Panda's solo show of discipline.

Chen Ying, controlling the drone, circled around, seeing the street rat Black Bear skittering along the ravine towards the mountain. He breathed a sigh of relief.

The other half of his worry stuck on the Social Panda.

This big guy didn't dare to stay in one place, pretending to leave, only to circle back to the slope here, hiding behind a tree and peeping.

Unable to decipher its intentions, Chen Ying could only use the walkie-talkie to ask Yin Li and the others to keep an eye out, and see if they could lead Mama Panda, Mendun'er, and Sesame back to their original spot.

Mendun'er had come to join in, only to end up scolded by its mother. A bit peeved, it shook its fur and pretended nothing was wrong as it headed back.

A few steps in, it suddenly stopped to sniff deeply.

This scent, seemed strangely familiar?

Mendun'er had previously lived in another conservation area, and had only come over this year for mating purposes. It had thought it would encounter a hulking male bear and perhaps get pregnant, but…

Thinking too much only brought tears. To think there were male bears who didn't desire beautiful female bears! Ridiculous!

Perhaps the memory was too fresh, as Mendun'er, picking up a faint scent on the wind, looked warily around.

At that moment, Mama Panda also calmed down, nudging Sesame's rump to walk ahead.

This wasn't her territory, nor was it her eldest daughter's. To be safe, better rest awhile in the humans' care.

After walking a few meters and seeing her eldest daughter stop, on guard and looking in another direction, Mama Panda followed her gaze, spotting the Social Panda who was impossible to hide behind the trees.

Mama Panda did not stop her pace but gently bit Mendun'er, urging it to keep up.

Yin Li and the others maintained a safe distance, following Mama Panda toward the Rescue station.

“Did you get the fight on camera?” Yin Li asked Little Deng.

Such scenes were rare, whether shared on public accounts or work groups, they were extremely precious research footage for studying giant panda behavior.

Although he wasn't specializing in pandas, after spending so much time with those panda fanatics, he had become more perceptive in certain aspects than ordinary people.

For instance, the Social panda's current behavior seemed like… it had taken a fancy?

While relaying the situation to Brother Ying via walkie-talkie, he also kept an eye on the surroundings.

It wasn't that he was suspicious, but he felt that the animal activity around the Rescue station had been unusually frequent in the past couple of months.

Half a year ago, even squirrels were a rare sight here, but now, not to mention Big Cats following us at any time, whole groups of giant pandas are appearing.

When they reached the forest on the outskirts of the Rescue station, where they could see the red house's roof, Chen Ying, carrying a tablet, arrived with Jinya.

Jinya rushed to Mendun'er, sniffed its belly, nudged the languid Little Zhi Ma, and then returned to circle around Chen Ying's legs and “ow-ow” twice.

Chen Ying, out of concern, handed the tablet to Yin Li and went over to pick up Little Zhi Ma to check for any injuries.

When Mama Panda saw Chen Ying, she sat down with a thump, the entire demeanor of an old mother turning somewhat melancholic.

“What's wrong, Cat Mother?” Chen Ying put Zhi Ma down and pulled out some snacks from his waist pack to feed to Cat Mother.

Cat Mother lay back, assuming a defeatist posture.

She really, really did not want to raise anymore young!

Mendun'er, seeing that Chen Ying didn't feed it any tasty snacks, went over wanting a hug and opened its mouth waiting to be fed.

Chen Ying did not oblige but patted its forehead instead.

“Today you climbed over the fence to escape, so as punishment, no snacks for you.”

“Meow? How can you do this?” Mendun'er looked at Chen Ying with a face of shock, “Do you not want me anymore now that you have a little brother?”

Chen Ying was at a loss for words.

He really didn't know how to respond to that.

However, from Mendun'er's reaction today, after a check-up upon returning, the date for its release should be decided.

It was late July, and according to weather forecasts from previous years, areas above 2500 meters altitude had already entered autumn, and by October, snow would start falling.

Mendun'er needed to return to the wild soon to adapt to the weather changes and prepare for winter.

The path that Cat Mother had shown them before now had three points where infrared cameras had been installed, hoping to capture more animal footage.

Conservation workers and Forest Patrol would significantly reduce their time in the wilderness during winter, especially when the snow sealed off the mountains. It was all about timely retrieval of footage to confirm the well-being of animals.

“Mendun'er, your previous territory has been handed over to your mother, have you decided where you will live?”

Mendun'er shook its head, not wanting to deal with Chen Ying.

The sulking Mendun'er was later coaxed with a cornbread enhanced with honey specially made by Little Sen.

Mama Bear returned to the Bamboo forest with Zhi Ma, planning to rest there for a while before heading into the mountains with Zhi Ma in a few days.

Today's event was a close call with no harm done, but Chen Ying told Yin Li that he wanted to personally fund the repairs of the Forest Cabin and move some equipment there before winter arrived.

“The revival of the species is definitely good news, but correspondingly, the incidents of animals fighting and vying for territory will increase. So, I still want to build the Forest Cabin as a temporary rescue point.”

Yin Li had expected this and nodded, “I know, I've got some money left, take it for now, and you can pay me back when you have the funds. Also, I think Dr. Xiao Song is considering staying, why don't you talk to her? You run between two places, and we should have someone stationed here after all. Little Sen's main focus is on giant pandas, only you two are in clinical veterinary.”

Chen Ying thought about it and said he would talk to Xiao Song in private.

A young woman spending her days on the mountain with a bunch of old men, naturally, some with too much on their minds would stir up gossip behind the scenes.

Sister Dai had mentioned to him before that the report to upgrade the Rescue station to a management station had not been approved yet, and it might be postponed to next year.

Before the upgrade, their personnel were already at full capacity; if Xiao Song didn't stay, others were reluctant to come, and if he went into the mountains, the workload would fall completely on Little Sen and Duanmu, which was a bit too much pressure for them.

While the two brothers were discussing their next steps, Duanmu suddenly came out to call Chen Ying for a phone call, his expression a bit odd.

“Brother Ying, it's an international call!”
