Zoo: This is a sickly "soft girl".
The staff of Liuzhou Zoo told the reporter that the northeast tiger in the tiger circle is called Wenwen. In 20 10, when Wenwen came to Liuzhou from Nanning at the age of 4, she was a sickly "soft sister" with severe chronic gastroenteritis. She can't digest well. If she is not careful, she will vomit, have loose bowels and even defecate directly.
For many years, in order to treat Wenwen, its keepers and other zoo staff have been worried about it, and together with experienced veterinarians in foreign zoos, they have consulted Wenwen and worked out treatment and conditioning plans.
After years of treatment and conditioning, Wenwen's condition has been controlled, but it has never been cured, and it often appears repeatedly. At 20 19, vomiting, diarrhea and diarrhea occurred again at Wenwen. After difficult treatment, I finally got well, but I still ate very little, so I was weak and thin.
The tiger opened a separate "small stove" in the zoo in his later years.
The reporter noticed that a message board with Wenwen was hung on the railing outside the tiger circle, which described Wenwen's life and health in detail. The staff said that every visitor who saw Wenwen would be worried about its health, but as long as he paid a little attention, he would notice the information board.
It is understood that Wenwen has lived in Liuzhou for 1 1 year. At present 15 years old, she is equivalent to 60 years old of human beings. She has changed from a "soft sister" to a little "old lady". Years of gastrointestinal illness really made her look haggard.
The staff of Longzhou Zoo said that in order to help Wen Wen fight the disease, the zoo opened a separate "small stove" for Wen Wen and fed him with less meals. In addition, in order to make it easier for Wen Wen to digest food better, the breeder changed the original meat block feeding to meat foam feeding, and added gastrointestinal conditioning drugs to the meat foam.
It takes a long time to recover because of the recurrent episodes of warm gastrointestinal diseases. Liuzhou Zoo is also constantly paying attention to its situation and actively adjusting it so that it can enjoy its old age in Liuzhou.
