Howling in the Mountains

On the TikTok short video platform, as the topic of West Rainbow Zoo went viral online, videos tagged with related topics naturally received strong promotion from the platform.

At this moment, a video that had just been uploaded by a user immediately caught the attention of numerous netizens.

The star of the video was Li Hua, the Siberian tiger that had just become famous in the West Rainbow Zoo.

The video's creator was evidently among the first batch of visitors to enter the tiger enclosure, and from their perspective, Li Hua appeared to be an absolutely terrifying massive beast.

As a result, the video garnered nearly a million views within just minutes of being uploaded, and the comment section exploded with activity.

"Damn, how short must the video creator be to make a tiger look this huge?"

"Have you considered that maybe it's not that the video creator is short, but that this tiger is actually this big?"

"That's impossible, if we go by these proportions, this tiger would be the size of a tank. Even for a Siberian tiger, it couldn't possibly be this large."

"Forget Siberian tigers, even African male lions don't grow this big - it's almost elephant-sized!"

"Wait, look at the chicken in its mouth - that should be a full-grown hen, but in this tiger's mouth, it looks like a chick. Based on that proportion, this tiger really must be this massive."

"It's not just the hen - see that artificial mountain? It should be over two meters tall, and it barely reaches above the tiger's shoulder height. This is truly a giant tiger!"

"Those paws, those arms, that massive build - can this really be something that evolved under natural conditions?"

"A normal tiger's paw strike can send an adult man flying - this tiger's paw strike could probably send Mike Tyson flying."

"Tyson: Thanks a lot, mate - it wouldn't just send me flying, it would literally slap me to death."

"If you put 10 Tibetan Mastiffs against this tiger, how long do you think they'd last?"

"You're so naive - given this tiger's appetite, I'd say it could last a whole day, by which time all those mastiffs would be fully digested."

"Where are all the lion fanboys now? I bet even a full-grown male lion wouldn't last three minutes against this beast."

"What? Three minutes? That lion must have some really tough bones to chew on then."

"Is this the kind of thing Xu Song fought back then?"

"Damn Xu Song, if he went up against this, he'd turn into a grey profile picture real quick."

"Bros, don't hold me back, watch me slide tackle... and help clean the tiger's teeth."

"Is this tiger really from West Rainbow Zoo?"

"Looking at how run-down everything is, it must be West Rainbow Zoo - Ningnan City Zoo's enclosures aren't this shabby."

"Speaking of enclosures, how the hell can this broken cage contain this Siberian tiger?"

"True that, even I couldn't be contained by this cage - one hit from my keyboard and it'd be in pieces."

"I think this tiger probably finds the visitors outside quite adorable."

"Of course, they're all tender morsels - one bite each, won't even get stuck in its teeth."

"If something did get stuck in its teeth, that person would be the ultimate tooth-sticker."

...

In less than half an hour, the comment count under this video exceeded 500,000.

And other videos featuring Li Hua the Siberian tiger received similar attention.

Almost every video garnered massive view counts and likes.

As a result, more and more netizens learned that West Rainbow Zoo had such a formidable beast in addition to its pair of bumbling pandas.

As Li Hua was becoming an internet sensation, other visitors in the park also learned of her existence, and they began flocking to the tiger enclosure from other areas of the park.

While expressing their amazement, they didn't forget to throw food into the tiger enclosure.

Seeing the visitors' enthusiasm running high, Yang Lin quickly went aside to make a phone call.

"Hello, Director Li? This is Little Yang from West Rainbow Zoo. Please send me 500 more chickens."

"Yes, unload them at the side entrance, don't let the visitors see. I've been telling them these are all free-range chickens."

"As for the price, I'll calculate it at 30 yuan each."

"No profit? What do you mean no profit."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Lin couldn't help but smile.

Originally, Li Hua needed to eat 5 chickens and 20 jin of pork per day, which was a significant expense for him.

But now he didn't have to cover these expenses at all - as long as visitors remained enthusiastic, Li Hua would have endless chickens to eat.

Thinking about this, Yang Lin couldn't help but recall the gluttony talent he had previously acquired.

He had initially thought this talent was completely useless, but now looking at it, it was a perfect match for Li Hua.

Just as this thought occurred to him, Li Hua, who had been eating chickens one after another, suddenly stopped.

Judging from her satisfied expression, she must have been full.

The visitors outside the enclosure also noticed this.

"Oh, looks like the big tiger is full."

"How could it not be? I counted, it must have eaten over thirty chickens just now."

"Can it really eat that much?"

"How else do you think it got so big?"

"Did you hear that, Xiao Bao? You need to eat a lot to grow big - look at this big tiger, it's so big because it eats a lot."

A man holding a child said seriously to his little daughter in his arms.

The little girl's face showed a thoughtful expression after hearing his words.

A moment later, she asked innocently:

"Then who's stronger, daddy or this big tiger?"

"Of course daddy is stronger," the man had barely finished speaking when Li Hua, who had been lying contentedly on the ground, suddenly stood up.

Under everyone's puzzled gaze, she leaped onto the nearby artificial mountain that was over two meters tall, and then opened her massive blood-red maw toward the sky.

ROAR!

With an earth-shaking roar, all the trees in the zoo began to tremble.

Even the visitors who had mentally prepared themselves couldn't help but be startled.

Of course, not all visitors were intimidated by Li Hua's display of power. Many who had managed to press their camera shutters right as Li Hua was roaring showed expressions of delight.

Particularly one elderly gentleman in his fifties wearing a green vest.

He was now excitedly looking at the image he had just captured, as if he had taken a masterpiece.

And besides this photographer-like elderly man, another elderly gentleman wearing white martial arts clothing also showed an expression of extreme excitement.
