1033.Battle of the Bird's Nest (4/5)
Seeing a group of people, the emus were not afraid, four or five big birds gathered together to look at them curiously, and then slowly approached. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
This bird is very friendly and never pecks people unless it provokes it. It is also not particular about food, mainly eats grasses, and also likes to eat some grass butterflies and insects.
The reason why I saw people come together is because New Zealanders are more loving to wild animals, and when they find out, the first thing they do is not hunting, but feeding, and they will put some bread, sausages, biscuits and other things for the birds to eat.
These emus have been fed by humans, and they have a good memory and can remember some experiences.
If they have been hurt by someone, they will run away when they see someone, and if they have been fed by someone, they will take the initiative to run to ask for food when they see someone.
Emus are very good runners, reaching terrifying speeds of up to 70 kilometers per hour and flying for hundreds of kilometers in a row.
Just as there are ostrich races in Africa and North America, and there are emu races in Australia and New Zealand, the emu has wings, but it has completely degraded and cannot fly, but can only run.
It seemed that a few horses were running towards him, and seeing the emu running at a gallop, Xiao Meng was a little scared, and the huge gap in stature made it only dare to quack on Wang Bo's shoulder, but did not dare to fly out to attack.
If it had rested on a flock of parrots, whoever dared to rush at it like this would have flown up and attacked.
The reaction was even more intense was the flock of parrots, and when they saw the emus, they quickly flew up, but the pecking parrots were very stupid birds, some birds could not fly when they were nervous, and some flew and flew into the trees and fell.
In short, the scene was chaotic, and Li Xing said: "It's like A got into the girls' bathhouse." β
Na Qingyang: "Get out!" Lao Tzu only enters the men's bathhouse! β
The parrots, which had not yet flown up, gathered together and looked at the emus tremblingly.
In this way, Wang Bo knew why they showed that silk posture after seeing Xiao Meng just now, and dared them to ask Xiao Meng to lead them to fight with the emus.
Obviously, the two sides have been in contact before, and Wang Bo estimates that the emus have just come to the nest forest in the last few days, and should have attacked them with the domineering attitude of pecking at the parrots, trying to drive them away.
The docile nature of the emu does not mean that they are cowardly, and under the lure of the heart of the bird's nest, they also show the domineering side of their personality and clean up the sheep.
What supported Wang Bo's guess was that he saw that many parrots had messy feathers, and Xiao Meng had only cleaned up a few parrots, so what happened to the other parrots? It can't be beaten by a possum, right?
The reason is in these emus.
Where Atulu is there, there is food.
When the emus ran over, they saw the big sausage in the hands of the Maori man, and surrounded him with his big feet.
However, unlike the parrots, they did not go up to grab them, but gathered around Aturu like puppies, stretching their necks and waiting to be fed.
"It's not bad." Aturu had hidden the sausage in his pocket, but when he saw that the emu didn't come up and grab it, he took it out again and tore it into small pieces and divided it out.
The pecking parrot is also a foodie, and the smell of sausages is heavy, and those on the ground who saw that the emu did not pay attention to themselves, they flapped their wings and flew over, grabbed the sausage fragments and flew away.
The emus were in a hurry, but they didn't attack the parrots for food, they just winked disapprovingly, and continued to honestly search the ground for food.
The parrots that flew up to the trees glared down, and the good temper of the emus seemed to give them some idea, and they flew down to grab the sausage pieces to eat.
A large sausage in Aturu was snatched up in minutes.
Finding that there was no food, the emus walked slowly and leisurely into the woods on their long legs.
Li Xing said: "I have been to several countries, except for New Zealand, these birds in other countries dare to be so unvigilant, and they have long been caught and exterminated!" β
Emus have great economic value, they can weigh more than 45 kilograms, the meat is tender and delicious, and the content of fat and cholesterol is low, it is a healthy green food.
In addition to meat, their skin is also valuable, with good air permeability, high toughness, soft touch, and raised pores that can increase beauty, and they are very popular in the international market.
There are also emu eggs, their shells are naturally dark green, unique among birds, emu eggshells have three colors, which are dark green, sky blue and white, and the handicrafts carved from this eggshell are extremely collectible.
Many of the most important MΔori handicrafts are carved from emu eggshells.
The hair of the emu does not form a feather, so it does not contain static electricity, and it is commonly used as a dust sweep of high-precision instruments.
The most amazing thing is that there is a fat bag on the back of the emu, each of which can produce four or five catties to eight or nine catties of oil, this oil has strong permeability, and is now used in cosmetics and anti-inflammatory drugs, and has a strong effect on sports injuries.
All in all, this big bird is a treasure, and the whole body is a treasure.
However, the emu are not farmed in large quantities in New Zealand, and the government is so stubborn that they are afraid that the bird will spread and will not allow them to breed in the wild.
Of course, if you think about it, these birds can grow to 1.8 meters tall and weigh 180 pounds, and if they really flood, it will not be difficult to destroy New Zealand's ecosystem.
In short, the New Zealand government has been conservative in this matter, but it is not unfounded.
"Shall we hunt two? It is not illegal to hunt emus. "I've eaten them, they're chicken-flavored, crunchy, and they're absolutely delicious when grilled over the fire." β
Wang Bo glared at him: "Master Xing just praised the people of New Zealand for being more beautiful, can you not embarrass you New Zealand natives?" β
Aturu laughed and said, "At this point, I'm MΔori, not Kiwi. β
The emus wanted to go into the woods, and the parrots were reluctant.
They had been beaten by emus before, but I don't know if it was the appearance of Xiao Meng, the big brother who took the lead, that inspired their courage, or if the emu behaved a little weakly when they competed for sausages before.
In short, the parrots are domineering again.
They can't allow emus in their nests, and how can they allow others to snore next to the couch?
So when the emus were about to fly into the woods, several strong sheep called a few times and attacked from the air.
Xiao Meng's high-altitude attack is like missile bombardment, and the landing of a sheep peck parrot in the air is like a San airborne soldier who forgot to open his parachute after jumping off an airplane.
They are best at jumping on the backs of their opponents and attacking them with their sharp mouths and powerful claws.
However, emus have thick, smooth brown feathers, and they have sebaceous glands on their backs that secrete some fat stores into fat pockets.
In this way, the parrot is more tragic. (To be continued.) )
