Grandma Zhangmei Farm｜Feeding Capybara King

I think everyone was burned by Capybara~ Especially the sluggish appearance of their hot springs, which is too healing. ❤️The park is really good to create an atmosphere, and also moved the shape of the Japanese garden, Capybara Does it look like you take a bath in your courtyard like an uncle (thinking about it after facing the wall)?

"What is a capybara? 》
Capybara is a semi-aquatic creature, and alsoThe largest rodent on earth (so it looks a bit like a big mouse + rabbit?)They come from the savanna and jungles of South America except Chile. They are also highly socialized creatures. It’s really cute to see them huddled together on the side. The staff in the park said that there are 20 capybaras. I've just arrived here, so I'm a little nervous and haven't adapted yet. Curiously, we touched the water temperature and found that it was cold water, and the smoke behind it was just a landscape, not a real hot spring.

The interactive area of capybara has two areas, one area is relatively small, and the other area is a large courtyard. Capybara mainly feeds on grass, aquatic plants, bark and fruits.There is Miscanthus for feeding capybaras at the park site.It feels a bit thorny and hard, so be careful when handling it. I heard from the staff that capybara only likes to eat the soft and soft areas in front of Miscanthus, and don’t like to eat the hard parts behind. Maybe the one we fed was more greedy, and the whole Miscanthus was eaten up ?

Don’t look at the little capybara, thinking he moves lazily and slowly,I heard that the capybara can run seriously at the fastest speed of 50km per hour, which is already the speed of a motorcycle!At that time, we just heard its high-frequency call. I heard that their biological clock has arrived. Like humans, they want to go home from get off work~

Grandma Zhangmei Farm｜Feeding Sika Deer

The park provides mulberry leaves to feed the sika deer with the ticket. If you like to feed, you can check in and show the staff, and more mulberry leaves will be sent to the guests. I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but the sika deer here is much more gentle.I think of the deer in Nara, Japan, they will bite their clothes when they see the biscuits in their hands. The sika deer here are so good.?

Grandma Zhangmei Farm｜Gourmet

When queuing, it is recommended to exchange food and snacks first. There are many vendors stationed outside the park, and you can exchange food with tickets. There are red bean cakes, okonomiyaki, ice cream, and the popular scallion pancakes, which are crowded with people waiting to enter the park.
