I have a wildlife zoo

Chapter 1: 1 I hope the director is okay

"Director, Director! What's happened to you?"

Seeing her own director suddenly fall to the ground, making heavy intimate contact between his head and the ground, as a pool of blood slowly spread, Lan Li was like a scared little deer. After a moment of being at a loss, she hurriedly knelt down to check on him.

Then she became even more panicked, "Eh~ The director isn't breathing! What do I do, what do I do! Should I call an ambulance?"

???(0?0.)???

"Damn! Hiss~ That hurts like hell!" Fang Ye felt his head swell and ache, as if it had been bombed by ten thousand high-explosive shells. His nerves burned and twitched, and he couldn't help but curse to alleviate the pain. With Lan Li's help, he sat up from the ground.

He frowned and gently pressed the swollen bump.

Hiss~ That hurts!

Press it again!

Hiss, that really hurts!

Lan Li couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, putting away the phone she was just about to use to call an ambulance.

It looked like it wasn't anything serious!

In a soft voice, she said, "Director, here's some tissue; wipe the blood off. Your nose is still bleeding!"

"Thank you!"

Fang Ye took the tissue almost reflexively and thanked her.

Suddenly coming to his senses, he looked at the unfamiliar girl before him, then at the surrounding cages with iron bars. Why did it look so much like a zoo?

Hadn't he just been at home, playing a game called "Planet Zoo" late into the night?

He had played until he fell asleep, and now what was going on?

Confronted with an incomprehensible situation, Fang Ye's brain momentarily crashed, "Who are you? Where am I?"

Lan Li's eyes widened slightly, her expression turning to one of panic.

It's over, the director hit his head on the ground and has amnesia!

Without hesitation, she pulled out her phone again and started dialing, her voice serious and sad, "Hello, 120? This is Linhai Zoo..."

Fang Ye quickly grabbed her hand and disconnected the call, "Stop, stop, stop, let me think for a second!"

He closed his eyes.

Bits and pieces of memories emerged as he made an effort to recall, reassembling and connecting them together.

A moment later.

Having retrieved his memories, Fang Ye's face showed a hint of peculiarity.

It turned out he had transmigrated!

The planet he was currently on was named Blue Planet.

Blue Planet's culture, geography, technology, and other aspects were not much different from Earth's where he had been before. However, when it came to zoos, they were just in their infancy. The reasons, those who know, know.

Zoos, unlike other recreational facilities, are not simply places for people to relax and have fun. They hold a more important mission – to influence public consciousness through their exhibits, animal conservation, and educational work, making people respect, pay attention to, and ultimately protect nature.

Countless examples have shown that if humans don't learn to respect and comply with nature, the harm they do to it will ultimately come back to harm themselves.

On Earth, the development of zoos went through four stages.

```

Initially, it was cage-style displays, designed entirely from the visitors' perspective. For instance, the bear mountain and tiger mountain had a depression where a crowd would gather around the pit and look down on these dangerous animals, laughing and throwing food, even pelting them with stones, while the animals, being watched from above, would feel immense psychological pressure.

Such exhibition methods could only increase visitors' disdain for animals and their arrogance in believing humans are the supreme beings of nature, which was completely contrary to the attitude that zoos should convey.

Backdrop displays were simply an upgraded version of cage displays, adding painted backdrops or landscaped backgrounds within the enclosure to make it aesthetically more pleasing for humans, but it was meaningless in terms of improving animal welfare.

Moreover, due to designers' lack of ecological knowledge about the animals, mistakes were often made, like creating polar ice and snow backgrounds for temperate penguins, which was very detrimental to the animals' physical and mental health.

More advanced exhibit types incorporated ecological elements from the animals' habitats into the display areas and allowed interaction with the animals, such as ecological or even immersive displays, emphasizing atmosphere creation and empathy, giving visitors the experience of "visiting the animals' homes."

Only when visitors saw animals living freely and happily in environments close to their natural habitats could they fully appreciate the beauty of the animals and nature, and thus, develop a genuine love and respect for them.

Otherwise, no matter how many signs were put up advocating for the protection of wild animals, or how eloquently the guides spoke, one could not resonate with or acknowledge the sight of animals looking lifeless and lethargic in their dirty cages.

On Blue Planet, zoos were essentially stuck at the level of cage and backdrop displays, with very few moving towards immersive ones.

The original owner of this body was also named Fang Ye. It was not coincidence, but rather an inevitability created by the overlap of countless parallel universes.

However, the Fang Ye who had crossed over was just a regular game and anime enthusiast, while the original was indeed a bona fide rich second generation.

From a young child, the original had loved visiting zoos, especially to see tigers and elephants.

But as the number of visits increased, he gradually noticed that the animals in the zoos were listless and inactive, lacking the liveliness and vigor of the wild creatures he saw on television.

The behaviors of visitors banging on the railings or even throwing stones and shouting at the animals to get them to move disgusted him to the core.

Thus, he harbored a beautiful wish to open a zoo where animals could live freely and humans would treat them with respect and care.

After graduating from college, the original used the red envelopes he had saved from childhood New Year celebrations and the living expenses he had economized on during university to buy a small zoo.

Accessing these memories, Fang Ye could only sigh with envy and a touch of jealousy, "It's nice to be rich, I was still broke after graduating from college, and he was already living his dream life!"

What boy doesn't dream of owning his own zoo, right?

Before taking over the zoo, the original was full of ambition and had many ideas for construction and change. But once he actually took charge, he encountered a myriad of problems and realized it was no easy feat.

For example, he put up prominent signs next to the enclosures prohibiting feeding and banging. The original and some staff would patrol regularly and try to persuade visitors patiently.

But the visitors wouldn't listen! They continued to do as they pleased.

When annoyed, they would retort indignantly, "What a lousy zoo, this isn't allowed, that isn't allowed, I'm not coming back!"

Many visitors felt, "I paid for a ticket to enter this zoo, who are you to tell me I can't feed the animals?"

They saw it as a form of entertainment.

Another example is in the feeding department; the tiger was given the freshest beef, never skimping on the quantity.

Although the tiger was well fed, it still looked lethargic, leaving the original at his wits' end.

Especially when a monkey fell ill, the veterinarian didn't know what was wrong, their expertise was truly limited.

The original could only watch helplessly, anxious and frustrated.

Eventually, it was a veterinarian from another zoo who cured the monkey.

Encountering one problem after another was overwhelming.

With so many pressing issues, the original would stay up until two or three in the morning researching and learning relevant information, then get up early at four or five to take care of and observe the animals. He was constantly busy and always on edge.

Already nearing exhaustion, he had just knocked his head in a fall, and unfortunately, that was the end of him.

Alas, humans can be so fragile at times.
