A few days ago, I saw a lizard raised by a netizen on a certain video. Not only was it very obedient, but it was also a little cute? Although cute, lizards are cold-blooded animals after all, so veterinarian Xiao Ming will not raise such cold-blooded animals for the time being hahaha. Nowadays, more and more people are raising this kind of exotic pets. Some people really like them, and then they do a lot of strategies because they like them, so there is no problem in raising them. Some people follow the trend and raise exotic pets purely out of curiosity and pursuit of attention. This is very bad, not to mention many accidents will happen, and things like abandonment of pets will also happen.
Although it looks like it was seen in front She has watched so many videos, but the actual operation is another matter. There were a lot of bumps and bruises while raising hedgehogs, but they did not put the hedgehogs' lives in danger. But one time when she was helping the hedgehogs to bathe, she almost lost her life. The two little hedgehogs died in vain.
What happened was that the woman learned from her friends that hedgehogs are animals that like heat and are afraid of cold, so when she bathed the hedgehog that day, she specially put warm water and turned on the bathroom heater. Yes, just to keep the hedgehog warm, it can be said to be very careful. But while she was bathing the hedgehogs, the phone rang at home, so she left the hedgehogs alone and let them soak for a while. After all, it wouldn't take long just to answer the phone. Unexpectedly, the call lasted for a long time, and while the woman was answering the call, she gradually forgot that the hedgehog was still in the bathtub.
When she comes back, I found that the two little hedgehogs were all red with their bellies facing up. It was obvious that they had been burned to death! The woman was still wondering. She had clearly put warm water in her just now. What was wrong with it? It turned out that the woman sat under the bath heater at first, blocking part of the direct radiation, so the hedgehog would not be threatened. But as soon as the woman walked away, the heat energy could only be irradiated on the hedgehog and the bathtub. Is this possible? "Cooked"?
Fortunately, the woman discovered it in time and quickly rinsed the hedgehog slowly with room temperature water.It took a long time for the hedgehog to finally recover. Sigh, if it's a little later, I'm afraid I'll have to eat hedgehog meat, right? This kind of carelessness is not uncommon in human real life. Many parents take their children out in the car and forget their children in the car when they get out of the car! If it is a hot summer day, the consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, I hope many parents will be more careful.
When raising a hedgehog, there is generally no need to bathe it. Occasionally use warm water and brush the surface of its body with a toothbrush. There is no need to wash it in water. Also, don’t wash it often, at most once a week. When you keep a hedgehog, you need to check its health frequently to prevent it from getting sick. One is to look at the luster of the thorns, the second is to see if the body is plump, and the third is to look at the tightness of the hedgehog's thorns. If any abnormality is found, it should be checked in time. If you are sick, you must take good care of it and treat the disease as soon as possible.
