Chapter 1456: A Tricky Problem

Father Yang is eloquent. He described the process of a coyote attack on a young man who lost his way and illegally selling drugs as vividly as a witness.

Zhang Zian listened with great interest and kept asking, “How did you know so clearly what happened yesterday? Do you usually listen to overseas radio broadcasts?”

Father Yang shook his head. “No, there is a priest who knows him in the neighborhood where the young man lives. He heard it from him, and I heard the recount.”

Zhang Zian roughly understands that although it sounds strange. There are often people in the United States who are doing illegal acts while teaching and spreading the faith. He doesn’t know how they usually deal with the teachings of God in their hearts but commit crimes with their own hands at the same time.

“That person is fine afterward?”

“He’s okay. After the coyote ran away, he painfully picked up the gun that had fallen off his hand. He thought that the gunshot might have been heard by people and that the police would soon come. He simply wrapped his wrists and then left immediately,” Father Yang replied.

Unlike the employees in Binhai City’s scrap purchase station, the priests’ recounted story should not be too exaggerated and should be very close to the facts.

“Coyotes are so abundant to such a point, but no one cares about doing something about it?” Zhang Zian said with emotion. This is the difference in national conditions. If it is a domestic issue in China, it may have already caused a storm all over the city.

Father Yang said with regret, “Things don’t always pan out like what you think. There will always be voices that oppose it, and these coyotes should have come out of the forest parks. The source of these coyotes is in the forest park, but in the forest park, hunting them is illegal. Not only that, even in San Francisco, shooting or poisoning coyotes is also illegal.”

Zhang Zian was speechless.

The United States is generally a law-abiding country, and serious people are unwilling to take risks to commit illegal acts. Otherwise, expensive lawyer fees and prison disasters are waiting for you, as for other types of people … they don’t care about the threat of coyotes at all.

Therefore, it is impossible to poison coyotes with drugs such as isoniazid.

To kill or not to kill. It is unrealistic to expect the coyotes to leave willingly, making this a real headache.

Father Yang said, “In my opinion, there are two possible ways, either to find the source of the coyote’s temperamental mutation or to introduce the coyote’s natural enemies. The former is not easy, and the latter is not easy as well, and its effects are slow.”

“The natural enemy of the coyote?”

Father Yang nodded. “For the coyote, the biggest natural enemy is not humans, but their close relatives, the gray wolves in North America, have been almost made extinct by humans. Therefore, the territory of coyotes has continued to expand, from Mexico to the Arctic Circle and all the way to the ground. Rats, to as large as elk, are all their hunting targets. Previously, the northern valley of Yellowstone Park was also plagued by the presence of coyotes. Later, scientists reintroduced the long-disappeared gray wolf into the area, and the gray wolf would prey on coyotes. Just like a coyote would prey on a pet dog, after some time, the coyote was completely driven out of the northern valley.”

This is a biological control method. However, whilst the coyote was expelled, the problem of the gray wolf arises … The gray wolf is arguably fiercer to deal with than the coyote.

As for the source of the coyote’s mutation …

Zhang Zian wasn’t sure, but maybe it wasn’t the sudden temperament change that caused them to attack adults, but some other factor.

If those factors are not eliminated, even if the coyote is expelled by the wolf, he is afraid that the next problem is the wolf.

“Do you have any opinion on the cause of the coyote’s sudden change of temperament?” he asked.

He felt that Father Yang’s trip to the United States might be related to coyotes, but he did not want to understand why such a thing should be done by the priest. It should be a biologist’s job instead.

Father Yang said cautiously, “It is not clear. Food poisoning, water pollution, environmental changes, disease factors, human stimuli may all have similar effects on coyotes, and we need to investigate carefully before we can conclude … sorry, When I say this, will it affect your interest in traveling?”

“That’s not true. I think it’s interesting,” Zhang Zian laughed.

“In fact, in San Francisco, as long as you don’t travel at night, it’s relatively safe. You don’t have to worry too much, just be careful when you leave the city to play in the surrounding area, and try to avoid doing things by yourself to avoid unnecessary accidents.” Father Yang cautioned, kindly.

“I see, thank you.”

As the stewardess pushed the dining car to deliver the meal, the conversation between them came to an end.

After dinner, they began to feel sleepy, and they took a nap. Although they continued to talk after waking up, they didn’t mention the coyotes. Father Yang said some interesting things and experiences while studying in Belgium. As for Zhang Zian, he told of his experience of traveling to Egypt in response.

Unconsciously, this long-haul flight was nearing the end, and San Francisco was in sight.

The plane began to descend, and a brown colored ground appeared at the end of the endless ocean.

Generally speaking, this is a pleasant flight experience. Although there is no high-quality looking flight attendant, nor are they sitting next to young beauties, he did not feel lonely.

Intentionally or unintentionally, Zhang Zian and Father Yang did not exchange contact information, because both of them knew that if they wanted to find each other after returning to China, he would just go to the church in Nancheng District, Binhai City. However, for Zhang Zian that is without religion, there does not seem to be a need to go to church.

So they all think that this pleasant conversation is their first and last conversation.

After grabbing his luggage and leaving the airport, Father Yang politely asked Zhang Zian if he would be taking a ride to the city.

Zhang Zian saw someone driving to pick up Father Yang. They are two foreigners. Judging from their temperament, they seem to be Father Yang’s counterpart in his occupation.

He feels that this is not convenient. People may have private words to say to one another, so he declined the invitation and chose to take the cheap Metro instead.

To save money on this self-funded trip, instead of staying in a convenient but expensive hotel in the city center, he booked a slightly off-site bed and breakfast online, in advance, through Airbnb. It took a lot of time for him to choose a house. The general principle is that the location can be a little away from the city center, and the room can be small, but there must be enough privacy for him, and he does not want to live with the landlord.

After connecting with the landlord and checking into the premises, he checked the room and felt satisfied. Thus, he released π from the mobile phone, which needed to write novels daily. He decided to leave the other elves on his phone for now. Otherwise, if he chose otherwise, he doesn’t even need to think about sleeping that night.

After a little packing, he fell onto the bed, called the Matthew Davis Foundation, confirmed that he had arrived in San Francisco and would attend their celebration. Then, he began to sleep, trying his best to overcome the jet lag as soon as possible.
