Chapter 469: 9 Dogs and 1 Mastiff

The name "Tibetan Mastiff" does not specifically refer to a certain type of dog, but generally refers to a large mastiff living on the Tibetan plateau. As long as it is big and hairy, it can be called a Tibetan Mastiff. In this sense, there is no purebred Tibetan Mastiff in pet classification. For a dog that doesn't even have a quality standard, the economy will collapse sooner or later.

Zhang Zian held his breath and stared at the projection screen without blinking.

He has heard a little about the collapse of the Tibetan Mastiff economy, but after all, it is too far away from his own life, and he has not paid special attention to it. At this time, he has witnessed it with his own eyes through unedited videos, and he can truly understand what is a nightmare created by human beings.

Tibetan mastiffs are too big, eat too much, and there is too little food on the plateau, so they can never get enough to eat. Whether it is feces or food thrown by tourists, it is all for their goal. Driven by hunger, they can do anything.

As soon as the camera image changed, Xu Gang continued to explain.

"What you are seeing now is the stray dog ​​shelter center jointly funded and built by the local government and the temple in order to alleviate this hidden danger. A total of 5 such shelters have been built, housing about 5,000 stray dogs, but there are still More Tibetan mastiffs are wandering outside, mating at will, and multiplying more Tibetan mastiffs. In order to feed their stomachs, some people have witnessed them attacking livestock with wolves - but they are supposed to protect livestock from wolves, but now wolf dogs For adultery."

In a vast field surrounded by barbed wire, there are hundreds of stray dogs, most of them are Tibetan mastiffs. At the end of the field is a small, simple building. In the building, there are two farmers who look like people who use shovels to stir together the food mainly made of highland barley flour, so that there is almost no meat residue. When they were done mixing, the two tapped the floor with their shovels, signaling to eat. A dense pack of dogs immediately gathered around several U-shaped troughs, scrambling for these seemingly unnutritious foods.

The food in the trough was quickly robbed, and they looked up at the small building, but the building was empty, which meant that today's lunch time was over, and the next meal was tomorrow.

"An adult Tibetan mastiff needs to eat three or four catties of cooked beef every day to get enough to eat. However, thousands of stray Tibetan mastiffs here can only eat a few hundred catties of flour every day. Even so, the monthly expenditure on food is two to thirty thousand yuan. , paid by the local temple, how long it can last is unknown.”

Seeing this, Zhang Zian noticed a problem. It stands to reason that these Tibetan mastiffs eat so little every day, they should be starved to the brim, but it is clear that some Tibetan mastiffs in the video are still as strong as cattle.

A somewhat emaciated yellow Tibetan Mastiff failed to grab the food, and was still hovering near the trough, trying to find some food scraps. It was too hungry and too focused on finding it, so it didn't realize that the crisis was approaching.

Suddenly, a huge black shadow pounced on it,

He opened his mouth and bit the back of its neck. The yellow Tibetan mastiff was aroused wildly, and with a loud roar, he rose up to resist, turned his head and bit the attacker, and two figures, one yellow and one black, wrestled together.

The yellow Tibetan mastiff was much larger than ordinary dogs, but the attacker was bigger, like a combination of a lion and a bear, and had an overwhelming advantage in strength. In addition, the opportunity was lost. After the initial resistance, The yellow Tibetan mastiff has been gradually lost and has fallen behind.

The blood stained the neck hair of the yellow Tibetan mastiff, and the smell of blood made the black Tibetan mastiff fierce. With a twist of its strong neck, a lion suddenly came and shook its head, throwing the yellow Tibetan mastiff more than two meters away.

With a muffled bang, the yellow Tibetan Mastiff landed heavily on the ground like a sandbag, twitched a few times and stopped moving.

During the fight between the two of them, the other Tibetan mastiffs watched from a distance in fear, not daring to take half a step closer.

The black Tibetan mastiff walked over majestically like an emperor, and pulled the yellow Tibetan mastiff a few times with its front paws. Seeing that it didn't respond, it immediately lowered its head and began to eat its corpse.

A few Tibetan mastiffs were salivating and dared to come over to share a share of the pie. The black Tibetan mastiff raised its bloody mouth and let out a roar that shook the whole field, scaring the few Tibetan mastiffs back with their tails between their legs. .

It was only at this time that everyone saw the true colors of this black Tibetan Mastiff. It was an iron-clad gold Tibetan Mastiff. Most of the hair on its body was black, only a little yellow on its limbs and chin. The blood of the same kind was stained red. Thick and dense hair covered its whole body, and its long mane made it look mighty like a lion. Long-term cannibalism made its originally black eyes slightly red.

Zhang Zian's heart felt chills, his hands and feet were cold.

He remembered an old saying that has been handed down since ancient times - nine dogs make one mastiff, which means to put several young mastiffs in a pit, provide only a small amount of food, and let these young mastiffs commit suicide in order to survive. Cannibalism, the only surviving mastiff in the end is the mastiff of mastiffs, with an extremely ferocious temperament.

Isn't a shelter for stray dogs with food shortages just like an oversized pit?

This iron-clad gold that was killed out of thousands of Tibetan mastiffs must be regarded as the king of mastiffs!

No wonder...the number of Tibetan mastiffs in this shelter is obviously less than 1,000. It turns out that a food chain in which big fish eat small fish has been formed. Be food for other mastiffs.

The video ends here.

Zhang Zian couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately raised the question in his heart: "Director Feng, do you mean to let Fei Masi and the police dogs escape from the siege of these Tibetan mastiffs?"

"Yes, you listen to me first." Feng Xuan raised his hand to signal him to be calm. He could understand Zhang Zian's feelings. The filming of this part of the script was extremely dangerous, and no one would want his pet dog to take such a risk.

He stood up, paced back and forth to consider his words, and then said earnestly: "Maybe you will laugh at me as an antique, but I always believe that movies are not only for entertainment, but also should carry some social responsibilities. I never make vulgar movies, Maybe that kind of movie is easier to gain fame and fortune, but there are too many people who have come to make it, and I am not alone. I make anti-Japanese movies because I don’t want young people to forget that period of history; I make police and gangster movies because I want to To support the righteousness of the society; similarly, I made this movie—”

Pointing to the mastiff king frozen on the screen, he continued: "I want the society to pay attention to these wild beasts that wander around Tibet and attack people and animals, and let more people know how much damage they have caused to Tibetans and the local ecological environment. If someone can help, whether it's a donation or a donation, then my film will have more meaning."

Zhang Zian was full of complaints at first, and felt that Feng Xuan didn't consider the safety of these police dogs at all in order to make the movie more thrilling, but he couldn't say a word after hearing this frank and heartfelt words.

Xu Gang took up the conversation and said: "According to statistics, 180 people in Tibet are bitten by stray dogs every month. This is only the statistics, and if those who have not been counted are added, the actual number may more than double. In addition, these stray Tibetan mastiffs are not just as simple as attacking people and animals. They can also transmit echinococcosis to humans. In some areas, 1 in 8 people is infected with echinococcosis. This disease is also called "worm cancer" ’, extremely difficult to treat, and the mortality rate is extremely high.”

Having said that, Xu Gang turned off the video and put a few pictures on the projection.

"This is a child infected with echinococcosis. The main reason for the spread of echinococcosis is dog feces infecting water sources, and the local drinking water disinfection situation is obviously not as good as that in the mainland."

A few little boys and little girls were lying on the hospital bed. Their faces were yellow and emaciated, and they looked at the camera dully. One glance made people feel distressed and sad.

"Can't we kill them directly?"

Lao Yang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said a very cold word.

"Unfortunately not, it would be nice if it was that simple." Xu Gang shook his head regretfully, "This is the most troublesome problem - although the stray dogs have caused great harm in the local area, the Tibetans do not allow them to be killed. We To respect the local customs, you can’t kill animals, you can only build shelters like this, keep them in captivity and then sterilize them. This is a race to compete whether stray dogs breed faster, or we move faster.”

Feng Xuan sighed: "I know it's dangerous to shoot this scene, and I will provide safety measures within my ability, set up a power grid and a barbed wire fence, and let the new pyrotechnician bring an anesthesia gun, but after all, there is no 100% guarantee that the flying The safety of Mars and other dogs... So, I asked you to choose those eliminated German shepherds as stand-ins for Femarus and other police dogs, and use stand-ins to shoot this scene, what do you think?"

He looked into Zhang Zian's eyes and said in a discussing tone.

All the eyes of everyone present fell on Zhang Zian, while he scratched his head in distress, unable to make a decision for a long time.

In fact, there is no need for Feng Xuan to ask him, he can shoot this scene forcibly, and asking him is out of respect for him.

Feng Xuan's idea is correct. These eliminated German shepherds are destined to die. If their death can bring society's attention and improvement to the Tibetan mastiff flood, then they can be said to die well, and they may not necessarily die. .

The only problem was that Femas would certainly not agree to let other dogs take risks for him, no need to ask.

Ever since he was a child, Zhang Zian has had the most trouble with the choice between the "little self" and the "big self". If he stayed out of the matter, he would definitely say——does this need to be considered? Of course, it is to sacrifice the small self to complete the big self!

Being in it, he couldn't say it so easily.

After thinking about it, he stood up and shook his head, then turned and walked out, "I'm sorry, Director Feng, I..."

As soon as he took a step, the corner of his trousers was caught.

Looking down, it was Femus biting the hem of his trousers.

"Femas, I want to be an angel." It said, with a holy light shining in its pupils.
