Chapter 497: Great Trampling Technique!

Tang Feng turned his head to look and found the shadow of a herd of elephants in the jungle in the distance.

The herd consists of about 20 elephants, including one particularly large adult bull, the others are slightly smaller females, and of course there are some juveniles and juvenile bulls.

The African elephant is the largest land animal on Earth, and this huge animal is a social animal. However, in contrast to lions, a single male lion dominates the pack, and in an elephant pack, an adult male elephant has no status.

The female elephant is in charge of an elephant herd, because most of the members of the herd are her female offspring, and the male elephant has no status in the herd, so the male elephant must leave the herd when he reaches the age of fifteen, and only occasionally return to the herd during mating. There is a strict hierarchy in the group, and the members of the group are usually very peaceful and friendly with each other.

The group of elephants that suddenly appeared in front of him was obviously a typical elephant herd, and the sturdy bull elephant didn't know why it stayed in the herd, but the size of this bull elephant was too big, perhaps because of this reason, this elephant herd would allow this big guy to stay in the elephant herd and provide a strong force guarantee for this elephant herd.

Although African elephants are invincible in the grasslands, these large, mild-mannered creatures tend to compete with other animals in a gentle way. It is only when there is anger or fear that it is possible to harm other animals, and even the strong rhinoceros should be shunned. While the adult African elephant is not afraid of any animal attack, the young elephant is unable to withstand attacks by lions, hyenas, dingoes, and vultures, so the group often stands in a circle and remains vigilant during rest in order to defend and defend itself. And even if the mother elephant senses the slightest danger, she will use her long trunk to alert her cubs.

Therefore, the presence of a particularly large male elephant in a herd is a very powerful deterrent to carnivorous animals that covet their young.

The average African bull elephant can reach about six meters in length. The height at the shoulder can reach three and a half meters, and the weight can weigh up to five tons. But the male elephant in front of him is obviously much larger than the average male elephant. This big guy is definitely more than seven and a half meters long by sight, and his shoulder height is definitely more than four meters, as for the weight, look at its big thick legs that look like four marble pillars, this guy must weigh at least seven tons.

Such a big male elephant is relatively rare, and Tang Feng didn't expect that it would be near this small campsite. I was able to see such a big bull elephant.

The elephant herd was apparently not in a hurry to come to the small lake for water, as they were now more keen to bathe themselves in the sand. The elephants used their large, dexterous snouts to roll up the sand from the ground and spray each other, spreading the forest in the distance.

It's not that elephants like to bathe in the sand, but that there is a kind of grass root under the sand, which is a very popular food for elephants, and elephants are very edible animals, and they spend their lives except sleeping. The rest of the time is spent eating and walking in search of food. An African elephant can travel up to 16,000 kilometers a year to fill its belly

The elephants tossed around in the forest for about twenty minutes. Only then did Pu fan his big ears, shake his long nose, and walk slowly towards the lake.

Elephants usually have weak eyesight, and almost every elephant is born short-sighted, but their long trunks are very good and raised. You can smell it from a few kilometers away in the wind.

The male elephant reminded the strong man that after coming to the lake, he did not rush to drink, but raised his long trunk, swayed around a few times, and then. The big guy's head didn't move towards the position where Tang Feng and Sophia were standing, and it was obvious that the big guy smelled something unusual.

The elephant was not very far from Tang Feng and Sophia, about forty meters away, which made Sophia a little scared. Human beings are really small in front of such big guys.

But maybe this male elephant has just been recruited into this herd, accompanied by a group of female elephants, which makes it feel very good, after glancing at Tang Feng and Sophia, it is estimated that it is because it is not clear to see, or it does not feel a threat from these two humans, so this big guy is shaking his head and preparing to go to the lake to drink water with those young elephants and female elephants.

More than 20 elephants lined up by the lake to drink water, and the scene was quite spectacular. These big guys leisurely stick their noses into the water, like pumping machines, sending a large amount of lake water through their noses to their stomachs. The trunk of an elephant is amazing, although elephants are mammals, above the esophagus behind their nasal cavity, there is a special cartilage that acts as a "valve". When the elephant sucks water, the muscles in the throat area contract, the "valve" closes, and the water can enter the esophagus smoothly without entering the trachea. After drinking, the remaining water in the nose is sprayed, at which point, the "valve" automatically opens, and breathing proceeds normally.

Sophia raised her camera and snapped more than a dozen photos.

But at this time, the change was sudden, and a young elephant that looked like it was only a few months old suddenly tossed, Tang Feng looked at it, but found that the young elephant's nose seemed to have been bitten by something in the water.

"Oh no, that baby elephant was attacked by a crocodile!" Tang Feng was shocked in his heart and said loudly to Sophia.

Those crocodiles hiding under the water, although they dare not attack the adult elephants, but for those young elephants will not hesitate to attack, these crocodiles will often take advantage of the baby elephant to drink, lurking on the shore, and then bite the nose of the baby elephant, as long as the baby elephant can be dragged into the water, then the baby elephant basically has no possibility of survival.

The baby elephant was suddenly attacked, and a female elephant standing next to the baby elephant suddenly became anxious, stretched out her big nose and wrapped one of the young elephants back and pulled it back, while a female elephant next to her also strode over and hit the crocodile with her big nose.

However, the Nile crocodile obviously did not intend to let go of the baby elephant, and its sharp teeth bit the nose of the baby elephant tightly, saying that it would not let go of anything, and the baby elephant screamed in pain, and the blood on the nose suddenly came out.

Seeing that the young elephant was about to be unable to resist, Tang Feng even took out the gun he was carrying, ready to kill the crocodile, but he heard an extremely loud roar, and then Tang Feng saw that the male elephant who was still lazy just now raised his big nose, revealing two tusks that were one meter long, and ran over angrily.

The next moment, Tang Feng opened his eyes, because after the male elephant ran to the young elephant, he did not pull the young elephant with his nose like those female elephants, but stepped directly on the crocodile.

Tang Feng also couldn't help but grin, just thinking about it, Tang Feng felt uncomfortable for the crocodile, a male elephant weighing more than seven tons stepped on it directly, what kind of concept is that?

I saw that the crocodile that was still biting the young elephant's nose and did not let go of its mouth, after the male elephant's big feet stepped on it, he immediately opened his mouth, and a sound comparable to a bull's roar squeezed out of the crocodile's throat. Obviously, no matter how fierce the crocodile is, it is nothing in front of the male elephant.

And that's not all, maybe that young elephant is the son of that male elephant, Nima, dare to bite Lao Tzu's son, Lao Tzu has to step you out of the!

Then, the situation that made Tang Feng stunned happened, because the water on the shore where the crocodile was located was very shallow, so the male elephant did not hesitate to step on it, and the other three big-footed girls also stepped on it.

Tang Feng even saw that the male elephant actually jumped a little bit

Holding a big grass, has this male elephant practiced? Otherwise, how could this set of "big trampling techniques" make it so smooth?

You must know that an adult elephant cannot leave the ground on all fours at the same time, but how did the male elephant in front of him do it?

As soon as the four big-footed girls stepped on it, the murderous Nile crocodile suddenly fell silent. Damn, it's scary to think about, a big guy with more than seven tons of weight is jumping on you, you try! It's the lightest to step on your, and I guess the internal organs of that Nile crocodile have been crushed by this bull elephant!

And this is not the end, maybe the male elephant thinks that this is not enough, this big guy not only did not stop after stepping on it, but raised his head and melon seeds, and then arched down suddenly, and two thick and strong big white teeth directly gave the crocodile a pair.

The male elephant raised its head again, and the crocodile that kept twitching was actually picked by the male elephant and flew out seven or eight meters away (to be continued. )
