Chapter 654
Chapter 652 rescues hamsters
The students present at the scene heard that they had to rescue the hamsters, and they widened their eyes at the same time. They were excited to varying degrees and listened carefully.
Zhang Zi An took advantage of this rare opportunity to first tell them about the principle.
Hibernation is an instinct for many animals. From small rodents, medium-sized reptiles, and even large carnivores such as bears, hibernation is chosen to cope with harsh environments in response to cold weather and food shortages. These animals have reduced body temperature, reduced metabolism during hibernation, and can even not eat, drink, or move throughout the winter.
Hamsters also have some degree of hibernation, but compared to those well-known hibernating animals, the hibernating ability of hamsters is barely an entry level.
Other hibernating animals will be professionally prepared before entering hibernation, eat themselves fat, store enough fat in the body to consume and keep warm, choose a shelter that is sheltered from the wind, comfortable, secluded and safe, hide yourself in Inside, when it is drilled out, it has already blossomed in spring.
Shishi likes to keep her and Liu Lalang’s Labrador wearing a sweater to keep warm. Zhang Zi An specifically told her about the “specific surface area”. The smaller the size of the animal, the larger the specific surface area, the easier it is to lose temperature. Large dogs do not need to wear clothes in winter, only small dogs are needed depending on the situation. Hamsters are much smaller than small dogs and are more sensitive to temperature changes.
The hibernation of hamsters is very hasty. They don’t know how to plan ahead, and they will temporarily enter hibernation when they encounter a bad environment that cannot survive. This kind of hibernation is very dangerous and may not wake up. Everyone can’t stand it. I think that this kind of life-saving behavior of hamsters is called “hibernation”. I can’t help other animals. I simply call the hibernation of hamsters “pseudo hibernation” or “fake hibernation.”
Although Zhang Zi An has only been for a few minutes, he has found several details that are problematic. For example, the shelves without pure wood chips and containers are located on the north side instead of the south side, the indoor humidity is slightly larger, the utensils are not qualified, etc. It is the cause of hamsters entering hibernation, but the most essential reason is that the temperature is too low.
“I will help you move the shelf to the south window for a while. The reasons for the false hibernation are: low temperature and short sunshine time. Now you are preparing for something, let us save them first.” Zhang Zi An After thinking about it, I assigned the task: “Is there a kettle? It can be used to boil water. Also, is there a syringe? Or something similar.”
“There is a kettle in the classroom, I will take it.” A little boy volunteered.
Wang Yaning said with a frown: “The syringes seem to be in the biology classrooms and school hospitals… but the biology classrooms and school hospitals are now closed. The biology teachers and school doctors are not there. Do you want to buy them outside?”
“I will go, I know there is a commissary in the vicinity that sells toy syringes.” Another little boy raised his hand and said. After Zhang Zi An agreed, he ran a few steps outside and ran back and asked: “Buy a few?”
“1, the cheapest.” Zhang Zi An raised a finger.
“Okay.” The little boy also ran out.
“Someone with sugar?” Zhang Zi An asked.
“I… I am carrying sugar…” Little celery and another girl outside Wang Yaning said weakly.
“It takes a while to add some sugar to the hamster, so can you contribute your sugar? Just one piece, no, half a piece, a little bit.” Zhang Zi An asked gently.
“Good… good.” The little girl grabbed a few pieces of sugar from her pocket and placed it on the table.
Zhang Zi An nodded to her, and then said to everyone: “Now everyone reaches out and rubs their hands like this, and their hands are hot.”
He quickly rubbed both palms and demonstrated to everyone.
They also learned how he looked, and after a few squats, the palms were red and hot.
“Well, now everyone holds a hamster in the palm of their hand. When the temperature is down, they will pick up their hands and then sigh.” Zhang Zi An said, first pick up a hamster from the vessel and warm it up.
The three little girls each chose a hamster, held in the hot hand, put it on their lips, and whistled for them.
This is the easiest and safe way to warm up. It is used for warming up hamsters with hot water or electric blankets. It is not easy to control the temperature and may be self-defeating.
However, Zhang Zi An just knows this method, never tried it himself, can’t work, and he has no end in his heart.
Heat is continuously transferred from the palm of your hand into the hamster, and the hot air exhaled in your mouth licks their head like a warm breeze.
“I am back!” The little boy who went to the classroom to take the electric kettle came back first. He held a silver stainless steel kettle high in his hand. “Is this OK?”
“Well is OK…” Zhang Zi An stared at the kettle with a black line. “But the question is… is this an electric kettle? Is it a base for powering up? Are you going to drill wood for fire?”
The girls also found this situation and were teased and laughed.
The little boy snorted and looked at the kettle in his hand, suddenly yelling and stuttering: “I… I will take it again…”
“Wait a minute!” Zhang Zi An called him. “Put the pot down and get the base.”
“Oh.” The little boy was so shameless that he ran out quickly after he dropped the pot and ran faster than he had just run.
After a while, the little boy who bought the syringe went back and bought the toy syringe. Zhang Zi An also assigned him a hamster to let him learn how they warmed the hamster.
After a few more minutes, the little boy in front finally brought the matching base of the electric kettle with a red face.
“Now take half a pot of water, boil the water, be careful not to burn it.” Zhang Zi An assigned him a task.
Half a pot of water, just a few minutes to boil.
Zhang Zi An handed the hamster in his hand to the little boy. He used a small cup to hold a half cup of hot water, and took a very small piece from the candy bar and put it in hot water. The small pieces of sugar quickly melted away.
He shakes half a cup of hot sugar water, waits for the water to cool to the right temperature, probably slightly higher than the human body temperature, so use a toy syringe to pump a syringe of water, then poke the mouth of the little boy’s hamster to It injects some warm sugar water into its mouth.
Feeding the hamster to the syrup, he did the same, and the other hamsters held in the palm of his hand were fed warm sugar water.
He put down the syringe and can do everything. The rest is only patient, I hope that these hamsters will be strong enough to survive.
The small celery stared at the silver fox hamster in the palm of her hand. If the eyes had temperature, her gaze would surely melt the ice.
Suddenly, her palms tickle, as if she had been scratched by something.
The hamster’s body squirmed a few times and opened his eyes.
