Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 401 Devil’s Horns

Devil horns?Ingested by mistake?

Wang Lu was a little confused for a moment, but after Parker's explanation, he realized that the so-called devil's horn was actually a herbaceous plant whose local name was Maltenia grass.

The reason why it is called such an exaggerated name is because the two ends of its fruit stick out sharply like sheep's horns and have hard thorns. As for sheep, this creature has always been a symbol of evil in Western culture, so there is Devil's horn is such a title.

And even though it is just an ordinary herbaceous plant, due to its unique appearance, it can also cause fatal harm to animals living in the wild.

After the devil's horn matures, the fruit falls on the grass, which is very inconspicuous. When wild animals that eat grass step on it, they often suffer from pain. If they accidentally eat it into their mouths or nostrils, such as deer and gazelles, Such animals may even suffer unbearable pain, go crazy and die.

This can also explain why Xiao Wangcai is so abnormal.

"Xie Te, why did I ignore this thing? Xiao Wangcai is a real man. Those animals that accidentally eat the devil's horns don't have such stable emotions!"

Parker looked in admiration. After all, Xiao Wangcai's tolerance has exceeded his imagination. Some animals accidentally eat this thing and make more manic movements than it does. Even herbivorous animals will appear in a state of madness, let alone Lions are at the top of the food chain.

Wang Lu asked his doubts.

"Xiao Wangcai will not take the initiative to eat grass, what is going on!"

Wang Lu still couldn't figure out why the carnivorous Xiao Wangcai accidentally ate the fruit of a herbaceous plant.

"Oh boss, countless weird things happen every day on the grassland. There is nothing surprising about this. In fact, the incident of a lion accidentally eating a devil's horn has happened before. I guess it may have been after Xiao Wangcai stepped on this thing. When I was in pain, I was so angry that I wanted to vent my anger by eating it, but this is what happened!"

After Parker said this, Wang Lu quickly checked the little guy's four paws, and sure enough he saw a trace of blood on one front paw. It might be what Parker had speculated.

Then, under Parker's guidance, Wang Lu carefully observed the little guy's open mouth, and then inadvertently saw an inconspicuous figure deep in the throat.

Obviously, this is not a small problem. The severe pain makes Xiao Wangcai unable to even perform simple actions such as swallowing. If no one helps it deal with it, the only thing waiting for it is hunger and death!

Fortunately, the veterinary team from Serengeti National Park arrived at the ranch in less than half an hour.

After a simple examination, the other party also confirmed that the little guy's symptoms were caused by the devil's horns.

"We need to perform a minor surgery on this male lion's throat to remove the foreign body. Anesthesia may be required. Now its throat muscles are too tight. Forcibly removing the foreign body will cause considerable damage. After anesthesia, Once its throat muscles relax, this risk will be greatly reduced, so I'm afraid it will take some hands to calm it down!"

The head of the veterinary team was also very respectful to Wang Lu. After all, they got a huge amount of tips from Wang Lu last time.

When Wang Lu heard this, he smiled and waved his hands and said:
"You don't need so many people, Wangcai will cooperate with you!"

After saying that, Wang Lu made a gesture to Wangcai:
"Good boy, don't move. They will help you, and soon you won't be in such pain!"

Wang Lu's words were like magic. Xiao Wangcai lay down obediently and waited motionlessly for the veterinary team to give him anesthesia.When the veterinary team saw this scene, they all had expressions of disbelief, but soon began to prepare cautiously.

Before anesthesia, they needed to put a mouth-expanding device on Xiao Wangcai to ensure that Xiao Wangcai's mouth would be open under anesthesia and could accommodate their device for surgery.

"Well done! Put it on baby!"

A black female nurse on the veterinary team also put the instrument in front of Xiao Wangcai, and then said with a smile. The result was only dissatisfied saliva from Xiao Wangcai, but she quickly stopped because of the pain in her throat.

"Hey madam, I want to correct you a bit, Wangcai is the lion king, don't use those unworthy names to describe him, he will be angry!"

Parker said with gloating that after all, only the boss and the proprietress in the entire ranch could call Xiao Wangcai a good boy!
Xiao Wangcai, who had already fallen down, let out a low growl from his throat to express his attitude.

After such an episode, the protective gear was successfully put on, Xiao Wangcai was also injected with veterinary anesthetics, and fell into a drowsy sleep.

After confirming that the muscles in the little guy's throat were completely relaxed, the veterinary team carefully removed the devil's horn stuck in Xiao Wangcai's throat through a laryngoscope, and then performed a simple disinfection work.

Wang Lu saw the source of Xiao Wangcai's pain. The thing was very small, no bigger than his own little finger, but its shape was exactly as Parker described, with sharp horns on both ends, somewhat similar to goat horns.

While Xiao Wangcai was waiting for the anesthesia to wake up, Parker and Wang Lu took the veterans to the lion's habitat, searched carefully, and indeed found traces of the Maltagna grass.

These herbaceous plants with devil horns are very inconspicuous mixed in the grass. If you don't pay attention, you will never think that they are so dangerous. No wonder those wild animals eat them accidentally.

"In fact, they often hurt animals like deer that feed on ground grass, causing them to go crazy and die, so it's also called deer-killing grass."

Parker picked up a Maltese grass and said.

"Move and clean all these damn things for me. I don't want my good boy to endure such pain again!"

Wang Lu also started giving orders, and Parker immediately covered his head:

"Boss, I fully understand your love for Xiao Wangcai, but this is a large grassland. If you want to identify these Maltagna grasses one by one, this is a project comparable to building a dam!"

Faced with this guy's collapse, Wang Lu also touched his nose in embarrassment. It seemed that it was a bit too much...
"Then use that John Deere 9620rx to carve out a safe area for my good children to move around, eradicate them all, and then plant oil sedges!"

In response, Parker could only nod silently.

It’s great to have a rich dad!
