Chapter 498: Dividing the Fruit
The battle between an elephant and a crocodile broke out suddenly and ended quickly.
In fact, in the African savannah, especially in the dry season, it is not uncommon for this crocodile to attack elephants, rhinoceros, hippos. In the African savannah in the dry season, the water source with water is the most dangerous place in the entire savannah, and there is absolutely no one.
Although crocodiles can starve, sometimes, crocodiles can even go without food for a month or two after a full meal. But even if this intimidating creature can starve, it still has to eat. And there is obviously more than one crocodile in this small lake, so many crocodiles are crowded in a small lake with an area of less than two thousand square meters, then there must be enough to eat, such as the first crocodile that Tang Feng and Sophia saw in the sun, and there must also be those who can't eat enough, such as this poor and unlucky crocodile.
As long as the crocodile is hungry, it catches what to eat, not to mention the young elephant, and sometimes, the hungry crocodile even attacks the adult elephant.
Not only crocodiles, but also hungry lions, spotted hyenas, and African wild dogs will do the same.
This is the law of nature.
Sophia covered her mouth and stared at the scene in front of her, until the baby elephant was escorted away from the lake by two female elephants, and Sophia breathed a sigh of relief.
"Honey, that baby elephant won't be a problem, will it? I see a lot of blood from its nose, should we find a way to treat that baby elephant? Sophia grabbed one of Tang Feng's arms and shook it.
Tang Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know if it's okay or not, that baby elephant has just been attacked, whether it's the male elephant or those female elephants, it shouldn't be a good idea to contact them at this time." But. That baby elephant is very badly injured, and if it is not treated in time, I am afraid that the baby elephant will not live long! Hey, I'll give it a try. Let's go, go back to the car with me and get some fruit, elephants like to eat fruit! ”
There was a lot of fruit on the pickup truck at the back of the car. Tang Feng had prepared it before entering the grassland, because Sophia, the girl, liked to eat fruits very much, so Tang Feng poured out a large number of fruits from the space, all kinds of them, which were prepared for Sophia.
This season, you won't find any delicious fruit in the arid African savannah!
As soon as she heard Tang Feng say this, Sophia didn't care that the fruits were prepared for her, so she excitedly pulled Tang Feng and ran to the camp.
Running in front of the pickup, Sophia rolled up her sleeves and joined Tang Feng. Unloading all the fruits on the back of the pickup truck, Tang Feng borrowed a trolley from the black brother, barely loaded half of the fruit on it, and then carried the first aid kit, politely rejected the idea that the hyenas and bears wanted to follow over to have a look, and pushed the trolley to run to the group of elephants.
At this time, it is not necessarily a good thing that there are more people, if it is not for Sophia's life and death, she will follow her. Tang Feng didn't even want to bring Sophia.
When the two men ran to the other side of the lake with the cart, the elephants still did not leave. A female elephant was licking the baby elephant, but the baby elephant was obviously very injured, and at this time she couldn't even stand up from the battle, lying on the ground and screaming in a low voice.
The crocodile's mouth is pretty powerful. Although the bite force of the Nile crocodile is not as strong as that of the bay crocodile, the bite force per square inch is as high as 2,500 pounds, and the bite force of an adult Siberian tiger is only 1,200 pounds!
The trunk of an elephant is almost always made of muscle, and there are no bones in it, not even cartilage. If it is the trunk of an adult elephant, it may be able to withstand the tearing and bite of the crocodile, but this young elephant is not so lucky, under the bite of the Nile crocodile, the nose of the young elephant is almost about to be bitten off, this injury, almost has pronounced the death sentence of the young elephant.
Tang Feng and Sophia pushed the cart and slowly approached the elephant herd, including the male elephant, several elephants turned around in unison, staring at the two people who kept walking, their huge noses were raised, and their feet began to move uneasily, it was obvious that these elephants in Wanji National Forest Park did not have a good impression of humans.
It's no wonder that these elephants behave like this, because even in this national forest park, there are often poachers who poach elephants, and many elephants die at the guns of poachers, so it's no wonder that these elephants have a good impression of humans!
Tang Feng also knew this, but seeing that the baby elephant was about to be unable to resist, if it was not treated at this time, the baby elephant might really be finished, so Tang Feng did not hesitate to use the function of "consciousness control".
Consciousness control is not the same as vein condensation, and the energy consumed is very small. The star core has to consume 2% of the energy storage to activate a survey function, but the energy consumed by this consciousness control function is almost negligible, even if Tang Feng controls the more than twenty elephants at the same time, the total energy consumed is not even 0.1%.
The African elephant is a very intelligent animal, ranking fourth in the animal kingdom after chimpanzees, bottlenose dolphins and rhesus monkeys. An adult elephant has an IQ equivalent to that of a four- or five-year-old child, which shows how smart an elephant is.
As soon as the consciousness control was deployed, the elephants immediately became docile, but in order to cover up this sudden situation, Tang Feng threw some bananas at a distance, as well as some sugar cane and apples and carrots.
Tang Feng controlled the elephants to roll up the fruits with their noses and put them in their mouths, and then the elephants stopped snorting at Tang Feng and Sophia.
"Wow, look at them, they don't seem to be hostile to us anymore!" This change can be seen almost immediately, even by a rookie like Sophia.
In fact, when these elephants eat the fruits, even if they don't use conscious control, these elephants will be able to easily accept Tang Feng and Sophia, those fruits produced in space are not a joke, even if these elephants are smart, they will definitely not be able to resist the temptation of those fruits. Confused. However, for the sake of safety, Tang Feng did not revoke the consciousness control, but slowly approached the elephants with Sophia.
The elephants approached Tang Feng and Sophia very docilely, sniffed at the two of them with their trunks, and gathered around. Sophia took a large amount of fruit from the cart and gave it to the cute big guys, while Tang Feng approached the dying baby elephant. (To be continued.) )
