"Chief Wu, the nature park is fully completed now, just the high-altitude cableways haven't been finished. We can release the tiger now," Director Wang replied.

"Alright, let's get it done now. I have other things to do, Hei Pi and the others are still waiting for me up in the mountains."

Seeing everything was ready, Chen Yang didn't waste any more time and said directly.

"Alright, I'll take you there."

Director Wang nodded again and then had someone help carry the tiger into the park together.

Although the park was built in the mountains, walkways were constructed, so carrying the thousand-pound weight was not troublesome for the group.

In just a little while, they arrived at the designated tiger area.

Because the park's theme is natural scenery, aside from some sturdy wire fences and walkways, everything else was just like a primeval forest.

Towering trees, natural shrubs, mountain springs, and stone forests were all present.

Seeing such an environment, Chen Yang was very satisfied.

For a zoo to reach this level, it's indeed designed perfectly.

Chen Yang went along with them to release the tiger, then left the iron cage in the park.

Because the lock on the cage was broken, taking it up the mountain was useless, so he just left it there.

"Director Wang, this guy has a big appetite, it's a bit of trouble for you to take care of feeding it regularly for the time being. I'll find someone to take over once the park construction is complete," Chen Yang said to Director Wang.

Director Wang didn't hesitate and agreed with a smile.

"Alright, I'll arrange it."

"Okay, I have other things to do, so I'll be leaving first."

Chen Yang nodded, then left the park and quickly returned to the medical center.

In the medical center, there were some anesthetics, which were completely sufficient for use on large beasts.

After bringing all the anesthetics, Chen Yang went up the mountain again.

Although the road up the mountain was more difficult than descending, Chen Yang was going empty-handed this time.

So his speed was even faster than coming down.

He turned into a fleeting shadow, shuttling at full speed through the forest.

In just twenty minutes, he returned to the vicinity of the water source where the trap was set up.

When he returned, Hei Pi was discussing something with Old Sun.

Seeing Chen Yang come, the two had surprised expressions again.

"Yang Zi, you came back so fast? Did something happen on the way?" Hei Pi asked in surprise, looking up and down at Chen Yang as if checking for injuries.

"Nothing happened, I returned safely and came back again," Chen Yang said with a smile.

"So fast? Are you flying or something?"

Hei Pi's face became even more surprised.

Chen Yang smiled slightly and didn't elaborate on this topic, instead shifting it, asking Hei Pi and Old Sun what they were discussing just now.

Old Sun was as surprised as Hei Pi but didn't ask more, pointing upstream from the pool and saying, "When we were checking the traps, we found a black bear's den inside a big tree and were discussing how to lure it into the trap."

"A black bear?"

Hearing this news, Chen Yang was quite surprised.

Because according to the normal ecosystem, capturing a tiger here would mean no other large bests should appear nearby.

Large predators have fixed territories.

If two large predators live in the same area, a conflict is bound to erupt.

They will fight until one side leaves the territory.

But unexpectedly, there was still a bear above the water source.

"Yeah, a very large black bear, definitely weighing no less than that tiger," Hei Pi nodded at this moment.

"Have you thought of any ways yet?" Chen Yang asked.

"Not yet," Hei Pi shook his head.

Old Sun spoke up, "This black bear is not like the tiger, it's smarter, and its brute force is even stronger than the tiger's. I bet our cage won't be able to contain it."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang immediately took out the anesthetic he brought.

"No worries. As long as we can get it into the cage, one shot and it will settle down," Chen Yang said with a smile.

Seeing the anesthetic in Chen Yang's hand, Old Sun's face showed a relaxed smile.

But the problem of how to get this black bear into the cage remained.

"Old Sun, Hei Pi, why don't you take me up there. I'll check the terrain and think of a way. Waiting here is not a solution," Chen Yang thought for a moment and said.

"Alright."

Without hesitation, Old Sun immediately nodded in agreement.

Then he led Chen Yang, walking upstream along the water source.

After about five or six minutes, they saw, from afar, nestled in a bush by the stream, a massive dead tree trunk.

The giant trunk was hollow, indistinguishable from an ordinary root from the outside.

But people living near the mountains know black bears love making dens in such trunks.

Although they hadn't gotten close, Chen Yang could still tell.

"Is that trunk the den?" Chen Yang stopped and pointed at the trunk to ask.

Hei Pi and Old Sun also halted their steps, nodding: "Yes, that's the black bear's den. Hei Pi saw it crawl in, it's huge."

Chen Yang listened, without speaking, he scanned around, observing the nearby terrain.

He noticed the surrounding vegetation wasn't very dense, many areas were grassy, making the view very open and not suitable for hiding traps.

With such terrain, it's no wonder Hei Pi and Old Sun couldn't figure out a good solution.

Setting up a trap does seem rather difficult.

"Old Sun, why don't we try to overpower it and catch it by force?" Chen Yang pondered for a while, and this was all he could come up with.

Old Sun heard this and felt embarrassed.

"Yang Zi, maybe not. These old bones of mine can't exert any force, and black bears are very fierce this season. Using brute force would be very difficult," Old Sun said with a wry smile.

"Yes, Yang Zi, the danger from a black bear is even greater than a tiger. Let's try to outsmart it," Hei Pi added.

Both Hei Pi and Old Sun advised against it, fearing things would go wrong.

But Chen Yang was confident in his abilities.

He had only used four-fifths of his strength dealing with the tiger, and despite how formidable this bear might be, he was sure he could handle it.

The only problem was the risk of it freaking out and causing chaos.

"Old Sun, Hei Pi, I know what I'm doing. You two go get a big iron cage, I'll figure out how to deal with it," Chen Yang rethought, then said.

"Alright, we'll go do that," Hei Pi admired Chen Yang greatly and immediately followed instructions upon hearing Chen Yang's plan.

When Old Sun was about to leave, he offered his hunting rifle to Chen Yang for self-defense.

Chen Yang declined with a smile.

"Old Sun, you'd better hang onto the rifle; you all need it more," Chen Yang said.

Old Sun smiled and agreed, took the rifle, and left with Hei Pi and the others.

After seeing them off, Chen Yang prepared all the anesthetics he brought.

He also got a giant syringe, sucking up all the anesthetics into it.

"This amount should be enough; one shot should take it down for sure."

Chen Yang tapped the syringe, pushing out all the air inside.

After preparing the anesthetic, Chen Yang started walking toward the trunk.
