Chapter 333: Adopting a Wolf Cub
Q
There were four wolf cubs, each curled up, not big enough for my fist, and it was estimated that it would not be long before I opened my eyelids. It should be about ten days.
As soon as I saw this litter of wolf cubs, I could already think about what was going on.
It seems that this she-wolf, who has a very high IQ, knew that she was dying, so she deliberately lured us over.
It should have thought, let's help raise its cubs!
Otherwise, if it dies, its children will also die because of fasting.
Look at this she-wolf, lying on the edge of the wolf's den, with her little cubs half-wrapped around her, looking at me, whining and whining, and wagging her tail constantly, her eyes full of supplication and anticipation.
That's what it means!
Otherwise, it would never have brought people to its lair for no reason, and in some way put its cubs in danger.
Motherhood is the most common feeling in the animal kingdom, and animals in the nursing period are extremely protective of their children, so some animals that have just given birth to cubs, in order to protect their cubs, will have a fierce temperament and refuse to let outsiders approach.
This can be regarded as a result of the survival of the fittest in the theory of evolution, an animal, if they don't even know how to protect their young, then how can they survive.
And this she-wolf, probably because of her son, took the risk of luring a powerful human like me over when she knew that she couldn't live, hoping that we would help.
Or maybe we just helped it out of the leopard's jaw, so it thinks we can trust?
I thought so.
So he pointed to the little wolf cub under its belly, touched it with kindness, and then gestured: "Do you want me to take them away and raise them?"
The she-wolf kept staring at me with wolf eyes to see me finish, and then she whined twice and wagged her bloody tail.
Looks like it can really understand my gestures.
This is not wishful thinking.
You must know that in this animal kingdom, not only people have IQ, many other mammals, many also have IQ, but relatively speaking, no one is so high.
But it must not be said that it is low, many people who are old enough may have the intelligence of children who are five or six years old, or even seven or eight years old.
In fact, there are also some related stories and legends among the people, such as the old cow that is too old to work, when it is about to be slaughtered by its owner, it will shed tears.
However, many animals with high IQ know how to communicate with people.
If nothing else, let's talk about the close relatives of wolves, and dogs are like that.
People who have ever had a dog probably have the most experience. You give it instructions, it knows what it means, you scold it, it knows how to hang its head and be trained. can even do search and rescue, guide people to the blind, those IQs are not ordinarily high.
The primitive wolf is a social group animal, the class in the group is strict, usually hunting in the wild, and also knows how to divide labor and cooperate, the IQ will only be higher than the dog, not lower than the dog.
I understood what the she-wolf meant. So I tried again, reached out and picked up a few wolf cubs, put them on my sapper shovel, and gestured to the she-wolf, "Then can I take them all away?"
The she-wolf whined and whined a few more times, still wagging her tail.
Wolves and dogs alike, wagging their tails is a sign of kindness and obedience.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with this, this spiritual wolf mother really wants to give her child to me.
Two different species, without language, in this way, barely communicated.
The cave was cramped and stuffy, and I came in and stayed for more than ten minutes, and I couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to get out quickly.
I carefully reached out and touched the she-wolf's forehead, and said, "Don't worry, your children, I will definitely raise them for you, and let them recognize me as the master in the future and follow me to hunt and eat!"
After saying that, he carefully held the sapper shovel and got out of the hole.
Outside the entrance of the cave, Ke Xin waited impatiently, and kept calling into the hole, if I hadn't responded to her, she would probably want to get in.
I crawled backwards, so that with the strength of my knees, I could free my hand to hold the sapper shovel.
As soon as my feet reached out of the hole, Kexin began to pull me: "How is it, what's in it, what are you doing in it with that she-wolf, for so long?"
As soon as I heard this, I felt very wrong.
What else can I do with a she-wolf?
I hadn't taken out the shovel yet, and suddenly said to Kexin: "Girl, is it good to give you a gift, it didn't count before, today is your birthday, I want to give you a real gift!"
Kexin looked curious: "What, is that she-wolf really hiding a treasure in the cave?"
I smiled mysteriously, turned around and took out the shovel, and handed the four wolf cubs to her: "Look!"
When Kexin saw it, his eyes immediately lit up, and a smile like a flower bloomed on his face: "Wow! What a cute puppy, fluffy, so good-looking!"
My face darkened: "What kind of brains are you? What came out of the wolf's den, it's obviously a wolf cub, how can you call it a dog cub?"
Ke Xin had already carefully picked one up at this time, and said, "But it looks like a puppy, I have only seen puppies, but I have never seen a wolf cub...... This wolf cub doesn't seem to be much different from a dog cub. ”
I said, "People are originally from the same lineage, how different can they be." ”
Kexin teased the little wolf cub in his hand for a while, raised his eyes and asked me: "Brother Lele, what are you doing stealing other people's children?
I said, "You may not believe it, but the she-wolf begged me to take her cubs." ”
Kexin shook his head very straightforwardly, expressed his disbelief, and said, "Then, what about the she-wolf?"
I said, "It's almost gone." Otherwise, it wouldn't have entrusted its cubs to me. ”
But when I heard what I was saying, my eyes suddenly widened, and my hand pointed behind me, and said, "Look, it's out!"
When I heard this, I hurriedly turned my head to look.
I saw that at the entrance of the cave, the injured she-wolf really staggered out again!
What's going on?
Could it be that I was mistaken, that it didn't want me to take its cubs?
I saw it come out of the hole, saw us, and with two front paws, it gently bent and bowed down to us.
This...... So this is for us to thank you?
It is said that the wolf is not only a ferocious animal, but also an animal that knows how to repay gratitude. When I was a child, I listened to my grandfather tell me about ancient times, and told a story about a wolf repaying his kindness.
But the heart was beside me, and they were a little stunned, and said, "It's ...... Is it thanking us for taking in its children?"
I nodded, "It should be." ”
Look at the she-wolf, who worshiped us for a while, and finally collapsed by the cave because of excessive blood loss and physical exhaustion.
