I have a wildlife zoo

Chapter 302 Mural

Fang Ye and Zhuang Xiaobai had discussed the mural project for the zoo, and today Zhuang Xiaobai also brought over junior and senior students from the Academy of Fine Arts.

A total of more than a dozen people got off the charter bus, each carrying large and small bags, curiously looking around!

In addition to painting supplies, they also brought their own clothes and luggage.

The task of painting murals was quite substantial and not something that could be completed in a day or two, so the students would be staying at Linhai Zoo for a while!

Although they were students, the compensation, looking at Zhuang Xiaobai's face, was not bad at all.

"Senior Xiaobai, is this the amazing zoo you were talking about? It looks pretty ordinary to me."

"Wow, the air feels so fresh! The wind is so comfortable!"

Zhuang Xiaobai replied to a junior, "Don't judge by the unremarkable entrance, there's a universe inside! You'll see once we go in!"

Fang Ye had already been waiting at the entrance for a while and immediately went up to meet everyone as they got off the bus, warmly greeting them, "Xiaobai, thanks a bunch! Hello there, students from the Academy of Fine Arts!"

Zhuang Xiaobai introduced him with a smile, "This handsome guy here is the director of Linhai Zoo!"

"Hahaha!" Fang Ye laughed radiantly, "Eh, Xiaobai, you're dressed quite stylishly yourself today!"

"Hello, Director!"

The Academy of Fine Arts students greeted him with a barrage of hellos, looking at him curiously.

They had already heard from Zhuang Xiaobai that the zoo's director was an Archdruid who could befriend any animal, incredibly magical! And he was a second-generation rich kid; he managed this zoo as a hobby!Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He seemed to be shrouded in an aura of mystery!

After exchanging a few casual words with Zhuang Xiaobai, Fang Ye told everyone, "The dormitories have already been arranged for you all; let's first go to the dorms so you can put down your stuff."

"Got it!"

"Thanks, Director!"

When they passed the alpaca enclosure, the girls immediately ran over excitedly, "Wow, alpacas!"

He then suggested, "The environment of Madagascar Island is quite unique, and many animals are found only there. We could draw some little Easter eggs on the trees, like a panther chameleon or something."

"Yeah!" Zhuang Xiaobai nodded and accepted the suggestion, "What other animals? Zoo director, could you provide a list? I will paint a few interesting ones. And the environment can just be based on what you have on Lemur Island, right?"

"The panther chameleon is in the reptiles and amphibians exhibit, you might want to take a look if you're going to paint it," Fang Ye said seriously, "As for the environment and trees and such, I will have the staff compile some information for you to reference."

He certainly didn't want to end up with a mistake like tropical penguins against a polar ice and snow background.

Zhuang Xiaobai laughed, "No problem, we will start with the mining part anyway."

...

Leading Zhuang Xiaobai's juniors, they arrived at the dorm to drop off their backpacks. Each person was carrying a large or small bucket, filled with brushes, paint, and palettes, marching majestically towards the ring-tailed lemur exhibit.

When they reached the lemur exhibit, everyone exclaimed in amazement!

The wide surface of the water rippled and in the middle of the tan island, many cactus-like plants and stout, baobab trees stood.

Some ring-tailed lemurs were running on the ground, their tails erect like question marks, others were hopping from tree to tree, and some sat on branches, staring at them with bright eyes.

They couldn't help exclaiming, "Wow, it's really beautiful here!"

"No wonder the senior likes to stay in the zoo!"

Suddenly, a junior sister noticed a ring-tailed lemur with odd behavior, standing in a squatting position, arching its back, rubbing its black and white striped long tail on its legs and arms, and looking around with its head moving left and right.

Curiously, she asked, "Hey, what's that one doing?"

"It looks like it's scrubbing itself!"

The crowd looked over and immediately burst into laughter.

The ring-tailed lemur's long tail acted like a washcloth, scrubbing back and forth - indeed a fitting image!

Fang Ye explained, "It's their mating season now. Ring-tailed lemurs are quite unique animals. They have scent glands, and the smellier the males are, the more attractive they are to females.

They rub their tails against their scent glands to get their own smell on it, then wave their tails at competitors, engaging in a duel with scent to determine the winner!"

"Shocking!"
