Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl
Chapter 441 - 420 Jinya Snatched a Kid Back_3

While the front gate was reserved for the two Tibetan Mastiff puppies.

The names of the Tibetan Mastiff puppies had also been chosen: one, with an iron-gold coat like its mother's, was named Black Gold. The other, with reddish-brown fur, was named Red Lion.

Red Lion was slightly larger in size, a female, but with an extremely domineering personality. Her brother Black Gold was often pressed down and beaten by her.

Uncle Tashi was very fond of Red Lion, and had mentioned to Chen Ying several times that when Red Lion grew up, he was undoubtedly going to pair her with an excellent male Mastiff and he wanted to pick one of the resulting cubs.

Chen Ying certainly had no objections, especially since the care of these two Mastiffs still relied on Uncle Tashi's help.

After frolicking with Jinya for a while, upon seeing Chen Ying emerge, Red Lion scrambled over to him, hugging his leg for affection.

"I've never seen any other Tibetan Mastiff that loves to be coddled like you."

Despite his tone of feigned annoyance, he couldn't hide his smile. He lifted each Mastiff puppy in one hand for a good cuddle before setting them down to play on their own.

On the other side of the road, a group of young people squatted, recording a short video of him playing with the Tibetan Mastiffs on their phones.

Jinya, seeing Chen Ying come out, quickly squeezed through the gap in the door to attend to her cubs.

Little Jin hesitated for a moment, then followed along.

The little lynx was lying on its side, occasionally letting out one or two whimpers.

Jinya and Little Jin stood up on their hind legs, opened the iron door of the neighboring cage, and jumped right in.

This cage was prepared for slightly larger animals; Jinya and Little Jin squeezed in just fine, with barely enough room to turn around.

The little lynx regained consciousness half an hour later.

Weakness and pain made it let out a low whine.

Jinya had fallen asleep. Little Jin, upon hearing the sound, woke up and ran to find Chen Ying.

"Awoke? Just in time; the milk is also ready. Let's have it drink some milk first, and then I'll cut up some meat to feed it."

While speaking, he took out a warm bottle of milk, entered the observation room, and found the little lynx awake, still whimpering and trying to hide in the corner.

He walked over, extended his hand for the little lynx to sniff.

Though his body was mixed with the scents of fierce animals, the little lynx still found comfort and nudged his fingers with its mouth, looking up at him.

After having eye drops administered, its right eyelid was still bloodshot and swollen.

He pushed the milk bottle into the mouth of the little lynx. It hesitated, took a tentative suck, and then gradually took hold of the bottle and actively drank with loud slurps.

The two little Tibetan Mastiffs peeped in mischievously, unable to see the high perch in the cage, but they could smell the scent of another animal and a hint of blood.

Red Lion started barking wildly first, posturing as if to attack the cage.

Jinya and Little Jin turned their heads in unison, lying down in the cage to watch the little Tibetan Mastiffs show off.

While drinking milk, the little lynx slowly nudged its way to the edge of the cage, peering down with its right eye to see only a vague, dark, bouncing figure below.

After concentrating hard, its head was gently pushed back by Jinya from the next cage over.

"Ow, don't look. That creature is not worth your time."

Upon hearing this, Red Lion was even more spurred on; it was so beautiful, even its mother said it was the prettiest doggy, and this odd-looking animal dared to snub it!

Red Lion barked even more vigorously, its cries so loud that Chen Ying's ears ached, and he had no choice but to forcefully carry Red Lion and Black Gold out and shut the door.

Jinya and Little Jin could open doors by themselves, but the two little Tibetan Mastiffs certainly couldn't.

After dinner, Chen Ying went to check on the six little calves again. Red Lion and Black Gold insisted on following him, entangling around Chen Ying's feet the whole way and nearly tripping him several times.

He couldn't bear to scold them, so what could he do but spoil them.

Red Lion and Black Gold had basically never been on this side before.

During the construction before, Uncle Tashi always kept them locked in a room, for fear that the young mastiffs with their fiery temperaments would bite and injure someone.

But it was different with Chen Ying; both seemed much more obedient.

Well-fed, well-rested, and receiving dedicated care, within just a day, the little calves had mostly regained their vitality.

The two bottle-fed calves of particular concern had been separated into different pens, with someone specifically assigned to feed them formula and concentrate morning and night.

"Brother Ying, the department sent a notice asking us to check in every three days, and we might need your help to guide us there next time."

"No problem, I need to go look for the lynx anyway. Let's go together."

They also knew that Jinya had brought back a little lynx, and everyone came over to inquire about it. Hearing that the little lynx was injured and infected, one of the female veterinary students volunteered to go and clean and change its dressings.

Chen Ying didn't refuse; the lynx's condition wasn't serious – daily wound cleaning and eye drops would suffice.

He had other matters to attend to anyway, so he left the task to the female student.

After examining all the calves one by one and reporting the daily summary, the female student followed him to the opposite observation room.

The little lynx had finished eating and was already asleep, this time with its head turned towards Jinya next door. Jinya was also slowly licking its head through the barrier.

"Jinya, stop, it's still got bacteria on it. Don't lick it. Wait until it's better, and after we've treated it for parasites and cleaned it, then you can."

It wasn't that he was afraid the little lynx would transmit any diseases; mainly, the area where its eye was infected must have been itchy and sore. It might have used its paw to rub the area. Since felines also rub their heads and faces with their front limbs when washing themselves, who knows if it might spread secretions.

He had only done a brief cleaning with a clean towel before, which couldn't guarantee it was thoroughly clean.

Hearing him say this, Little Jin quickly used its paw to hook around Jinya's neck and pull her aside. It even tried to pry open Jinya's mouth to have a look.

Chen Ying chuckled inwardly and went to rescue Jinya.

The female student watched their interaction with envy, but she didn't dare to approach.

Dr. Chen could be close to those animals without getting scratched, but it didn't mean they could.

The last one who didn't believe it and tried to touch Jinya got a long bloody scratch on the back of their hand, and now they've been transferred from here.

He handed the medical record to the female student and mentioned the areas that needed special attention.

"When you go to clean its wound, you must be careful to take protective measures. Wild animals carry many dangerous viruses, so don't be reckless."

He opened the adjacent supply cabinet, which contained more than a dozen unopened protective gear sets, each use needing to be logged in the notebook beside it.

After giving instructions, the female student casually asked where he was going tomorrow.

"I'm going to the wild to look for medicinal plants."

"Ah, Dr. Chen, you're interested in that too?"

"No, it's Dr. Dao who needs to survey the medicinal plant resources in this area."

The female student instinctively glanced outside and inwardly cursed.
