Section 215 Tianshan Snow Leopard
Suddenly, we heard Brother Yixiu's weak and whispering voice: "I'm so hungry, I'm really hungry, is there anything to eat, I want to eat."
"We listened to a burst of surprise in our hearts, it seems that this Tianshan Snow Lotus is really a miracle medicine, although there is no medicine to get rid of the disease, but Brother Yixiu obviously looks much better, and he can still speak, although the voice is still very weak, but it has been much better, it seems that his life is worry-free, but what makes us worry is that the dry food that we finally brought to Tianshan has been eaten up by us. Hu Jiaojiao said bluntly: "Oh, it's all because we are greedy, there is no food in our pockets, and it looks snowy here, ice and snow, and there is nothing to eat, what can I do?" Wang Gongzi said disappreciatively: "There should be some plateau animals such as rock sheep, ibex, argali, etc., and there should also be plateau rabbits, marmots, rats and other small animals, as well as snowcocks, horse chickens, Rainbow pheasants and other birds, but they are probably hiding in the crevices of the rocky cliffs right now, and it seems that we need to find a way to lure them out. "Everyone is worried, can't think of any way to lure those small animals hiding in the depths of the snow sea to appear, is full of ambition, fortunately our luck is not bad, really said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.
Suddenly, a stupid argali, out of the snowdrift, galloped past in front of our eyes, we immediately launched an attack and pursuit of it, because several of us are strong in martial arts, so it didn't take long, the poor argali, was trapped in the beast, was taken down by us in one fell swoop, we were triumphantly cheering, suddenly, a gust of wind blew from the cheeks, a gust of snow from the overhead, a quick and alert, flexible, good at jumping white object with lightning speed from the back of the cliff more than 4 meters high, jumped up, straight to our high-headed horseThen a big red horse in front of us was unfortunately hit, it neighed at the sky, screamed, and fell down with a bang, and the blood gushed out, and the blood flowed endlessly, staining the snow-white earth.
A huge object appeared in front of our eyes, its fur was grayish-white, with black spots and black rings, and a long, thick tail
Known as the "King of the Snow Mountains". Also dragging a long tail, staring at us with fierce eyes, not good, it turned out to be the snow leopard, this is the king of the Tianshan Mountains, this important big cat carnivore and often near the snow line and between the snow activities, hence the name
"Snow Leopard". They are rock-dwelling animals in the highland area. It is often active in the environment of permanent ice and snow alpine bare rocks and cold desert zones, and has seen snow leopard footprints on the summit ridge of the Qilian Mountains from 4,500 meters below to 4,100 meters above, and on the snow at a height of 5,400 meters on the north slope of Mount Everest.
It often inhabits the mountains at an altitude of 2500~5000 meters. In summer, it can be seen on the high mountains of 3000~6000 meters, and in winter, it mostly drops to 2000~3500 meters with the migration of food.
Some snow leopards still live in the mountains at an altitude of 5,000 meters in winter. It is located on the top of the ice peaks and snow mountains, far away from the hustle and bustle, quite a lot
The momentum of a lone ranger who is "whimsical and alone". This snow leopard is not to be underestimated, it is very powerful, the snow leopard has highly developed skills such as distributing blood and regulating breathing.
It is sensitive to oxidative changes, and high-altitude mountains such as the Tianshan Mountains in China are the main distribution areas of snow leopards. Good guys, our luck today is really good, not partial, actually ran into this king of the snow, but it is really fierce and auspicious, it looks more than a meter long, and the tail length and the body is about the same, there is also a meter, the weight is visually measured, it seems to be 80 kilograms, but if it is reduced many times, it should still be very cute, like a docile cat, but the behemoth in front of us is not cute at all, it is yellow with green light, fierce and evil looked at us, I don't know what its next move isγ
However, as the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, we are invincible, we call this rare good opportunity, just take a closer look at the tiger eyeing the tiger, the invincible snow leopard, only to see its whole body gray-white hair, and the fur is very thick, covered with black spots.
The black spots on the head are small and dense, its back, body side and the outer edge of the limbs form irregular black rings, the black ring is larger the more towards the back of the body, there are several small black spots in the black ring on the back and side of the body, the black ring on the outer edge of the limbs is grayish-white, there are no black spots, starting from the shoulders on the back, the black spots form three lines until the tail root, the black ring edge of the back is wide and large, the tail end is the most obvious, and the tail tip is black.
Its iris is yellowish-green, and its pupils are round when illuminated by strong light. It opens its mouth and roars, and its tongue has many keratous barbs at the ends, and the spines on the tip and edge of the tongue form many fleshy protrusions.
5 toes on the forefoot and 4 toes on the hind foot. The forefoot is wider than the hindfoot, with keratinized claws at the end of the toes, slightly curved, and sharp tips.
There are thick and long coarse hairs between the toes, palmar pads and toes. The skull is slightly wider and rounded than shaped. The ventricles are larger.
The broad frontal process and postorbital zygomatic orbit are both long and acute. The nasal bone is short and wide, and its anterior end is particularly wide. The zygomatic arch is thick.
The frontal process of the maxilla is triangular and extends beyond the posterior end of the nasal bone. The interorbital space is wider. The herringbone crest of the adult beast is towering, and the old body is even more significant.
The protrusions of the abnormal bone protrude backwards, pointed and thinly straight. The tympanic cavity is flattened and low, and the paraoccipital process is long and extends below beyond the auditorys.
The mandible is broad and thick, with a straight lower edge. It grinned with teeth and claws, staring at us with a fierce look, and roared again, only to see that its teeth were also very distinctive, its upper and lower incisors were in a horizontal row, the central pair of incisors was smaller, and the outer incisors were the largest.
The canine teeth are well developed and their inner blades are sharp. There are 3 left and right maxillary premolars, and the second premolar is small and has only one cusp.
The third premolars are laterally flattened and triangular, with a less pronounced low cusp after the main cusp. There are 4 cusps on the outside of the upper lobe.
The second pinnacle (anterior cusp) is the largest, tall and pointed, with only one low cusp (protocusp) at the anterior end of the inner margin.
The molars are small and transverse. There are only 2 lower premolars left and right, the first and second premolars are absent, the third and fourth premolars are developed, the third premolars are flattened laterally in the shape of a mountain, the main cusp is in the center, and there is a small tooth tip in the front and rear.
The main cusp of the fourth lower premolar is tall and central, with one small cusp in front and two small cusps in the back. The lower molars are large.
The back tooth spike is slightly higher than the front spike, which has to bite down, but it is a fatal injury, and we must be very careful with its fatal mouth.
It stood in front of us with its teeth and claws open, its eyes moving non-stop, probably thinking about how to launch an effective attack on us, a fatal blow.
