聰明動物
三腳狗功夫 PETER BADENHUIZEN ◎撰 救援者說,小柳和阿風6個月大時需要將右前足截肢。這一窩哈士奇小狗崽只有這兩隻一出生就有缺陷, 得用肘行走,如果有3條腿應該比3 個狗掌更適合牠們。 主人本來打算安樂死,還好救援組織介入了。 我們不怕小柳和阿風會很難照顧,很快也發現,牠們自己也不擔心。現在牠們8歲了,成天活蹦亂跳,走過的山間小徑也有數千公里。牠們的跳躍動作簡直滿分,我們甚至得在庭院四周建起2公尺高的圍欄,以免牠們翻越。牠們偶爾也會跌個狗吃屎,但馬上就彈起來繼續前進。我真心認為牠們並不覺得自己和其他狗有什麼不同,唯獨別要求牠們「握手」。 我的大塊頭兄弟 F.R.H. ◎撰 幾年前,我在雪梨以西的藍山一帶買了塊地,設計規畫後準備自建屋舍。有一天,我忙著將木釘鎚進地面,標記房屋占地面積,沒注意到離我很近的地方就站著一隻袋鼠。牠直挺挺站在一片開花的山楂樹旁, 儼然在護衛樹叢。 這位大塊頭鐵定是山頭老大,從牠的頭、胸上打鬥的傷痕,還有耳朵撕裂破碎的樣子,說明牠絕對是位戰士。牠盯著我又插進幾根木釘,咕噥一聲後, 便大步跳走。從那之後,牠常常來拜訪,不過中間還是會隔一小段距離。房子蓋好後的某一夜,在攝氏零度以下的天氣,一位袋鼠客人踩在前門墊子上,嚇了我一大跳。當時我正在測試露台的燈,這位「大塊頭」一躍就是3公尺高,降落在草坪上。我打開前門,牠也瞪大眼睛看著我,我告訴牠:「儘管把我家墊子當自己的用。」後來,我們發展出巧妙的關係,我靠近牠,牠也不會跑走,而是埋頭繼續啃食我家草坪。牠知道我不會傷害牠,牠也不破壞我的家園,彼此相敬如賓,保持適當距離。…
