After three days of treatment at the private hospital in Sydney Palace, the reindeer named Little White by Anna was placed in the Sydney Royal Zoo.
During the treatment, Arthur's mother Princess Louise, Queen Mary, and the two little ones would visit Little White from time to time, both to satisfy their curiosity and because they had a fondness for such fluffy and pure white animals.
Although they were reluctant to have Arthur send Little White to the Royal Zoo, they knew that instead of keeping it at the Sydney Palace for the royal family's private viewing, it would be better to let people from all over the world watch it, both to add to Arthur's legend and to demonstrate the generosity of the Australasian royal family.
After all, the Australasian royal family wanted long-term rule, and the prestige of the royal family was far more important than the interests of the royal family.
During these three days, the Victoria Newspaper and the Australasia Daily were the only two media and newspapers able to access Little White in Australasia.
These two newspapers also made use of the news gap to extensively report on Arthur's legendary hunting of Little White and even unusually included photos of Little White in the newspaper.
It was like hunger marketing; if Little White had been sent directly to the Royal Zoo, people might not have been so expectant.
After the three-day healing period, on the day Little White entered the Royal Zoo, the tickets for the zoo were quickly sold out, and the people gathered at the entrance of the zoo were even clamoring for the zoo to pre-sell the second day's tickets in advance.
It's worth noting that zoo tickets are generally non-refundable. This means that if people buy the tickets and something comes up the next day, they may lose a considerable amount of money.
Although the price of the zoo ticket is only 0.35 Australian Dollars after the discount, just a little more than two days' wages for Australasians.But this does not mean that the ticket price is not expensive. Even if converted to later generations, if the average income is calculated as 5,000 per month and 60,000 per year, the ticket price for a zoo like the Royal Zoo would be about 350.
For ordinary people, there might not be many who can afford and are willing to pre-purchase a zoo ticket for 350 in advance.
From this, it can also be seen how much the Australian people welcome Little White. If it wasn't for the fact that such a rare white reindeer has only been found once in Australasia, Arthur even considered listing it as a national treasure of Australasia.
In fact, after Butler Kent returned to the Royal Palace, Arthur's previous decision to collect endangered plants and animals from future generations was already being implemented.
Negotiations are currently underway with some countries in East Asia and Europe. If the progress goes smoothly, they will be able to purchase and transport them back to Australasia within one to two months.
The first batch of precious wild animals and plants purchased include the Caribbean monk seal, Mexican grizzly bear, Blackbear worm-eating warbler, Kien Mountains wolf, and Wake Island rail.
These are all wild animals that became extinct in the 20th century, and their value is self-evident.
Of course, it is now only the beginning of the 20th century, and although many of these animals have already decreased in number, they can still be found with careful searching.
Arthur's goal is to establish an endangered animal museum in Australasia. By the time these animals become extinct elsewhere, the surviving animals in Australasia would be unique treasures.
