Chapter 49: Sitting on the mountain and watching the leopard fight
Aida Awati and the little tiger brothers have been walking in the hilly area for the past few days, and they have seen a lot of animals that they have never seen before. Not knowing their names, the two teenagers could only say "the one with the pointed mouth" and "the one that looked like a pronghorn". Cute and cute.
Now, they sat on the top of a low ridge that guarded the western gate of the hills, resting and watching the animals in the distance move and "play".
Pointing to a snow leopard squatting on the top of a small hill, Evati said, "Look over there, there's an animal that looks like Leda." ”
Aida looked in the direction of Evati's finger and saw the snow leopard at a glance. "It's not like Leda at all," Aida said. Leda looks yellowish-brown from a distance, and it is off-white. Leda had a big head and looked mighty, but its head was small, as thick as its neck, and it was ugly to death. ”
The snow leopard's paws are wrapped in fur and have a large contact area, like a ski, so that it does not sink too deep into the snow, thus increasing its running speed. It has a thick layer of fluff and a thick, long tail. The thick fluff is good for heat preservation and ensures survivability in alpine areas. When it sleeps, the thick and long tail tip protects the front of the nose to block the air conditioning and protect the heating, so as not to lose too much body temperature. Another great use of the tail is that when it climbs trees or climbs, the tail can be supported on the ground to help it with strength.
Aida laughed at the snow leopard's small head, which was as thick as a neck. This is due to the fact that she does not understand the phenomenon of resistance. Needless to say, every part of the snow leopard's body is made for running. Including its small pointed ears.
Unconsciously, the two teenagers and the two tiger cubs have been going over the mountains and mountains for more than a month.
The boy's face was no longer immature and fair, and the wild wind had painted it a brownish-red, rough and dry, wind-resistant and cold-resistant, and from a distance, it looked like two adults whose height had not grown.
Fate and hope are also much tougher than before, and they are no longer the kind of lazy guys who stop and go and have to be embraced. Instead, they prefer to run ahead, looking left and right, like a trailblazer.
The cheetah, which had been crouching on the top of the mound, had been there for a long time. It kept staring ahead, like a sculpture, motionless. Maybe the temperature of its butt has melted the snow and ice below, and the water is running under its paws.
Hehe, as soon as he said this, the snow leopard seemed to hear it, and it raised its mouth, slowly turned its head, and sniffed over and over again, over and over again.
It most likely sniffed something and began to look to the side. But it can be concluded that it is definitely not a herbivore. Because, many herbivores are less than 500 meters away from it.
"It may have smelled something new," Awati said. ”
Aida said, "No. These days, fate and hope are like this. Let's hurry up. ”
"Let's rest a little longer." Aiwati, who wanted to see the end, said, "Tomorrow will be on a flat road, let's step up and ensure that we don't delay the trip." As he spoke, he took his fate in his arms.
Hope never suffers, it saw that Evati hugged fate, took the initiative to come to Aida, rubbed Aida's leg with his head, Aida stroked Hope's head a few times, picked it up, and kissed it on the mouth. Hope yawned and half-closed his eyes in contentment. Aida also pressed her face to Hope's head and closed her eyes to rest.
"Aida, look, there's another one of the same color coming over there." Evati said excitedly.
Aida looked up and saw that there was indeed a snow leopard walking towards the one on the top of the hill, and the speed was not fast.
When it climbed to the top of the mound and tried to get closer, the one that had been crouching there pounced on it, intending to attack it.
The visitor raised his two front paws, protected himself, and stepped aside.
The previous one returned to its place, crouched down again, and stared ahead.
The one who came saw that the one who had no intention of fighting it before, tried to get over again.
The previous one was really angry this time, and it lunged at it, biting the comer on the neck a few times.
Although the comer was wary, he used his two front paws to block and open his mouth to fight back, but because he was below, coupled with the "loss", he rolled on the ground and left in a hurry.
The previous one only chased a section and gave up. Squatted down again where he had stopped.
When the one who came saw that the one before was no longer chasing, he stopped running. It stretched its neck, put its mouth on the ground, and sniffed as it walked, until it thought it could make a mark, pouted its buttocks, sprinkled a bundle of pee, and turned around to sniff, which may be equivalent to the "XXX here visit" left in a conspicuous place when modern people travel, right?
Definitely! It's just ridicule.
Male carnivores urinate on roadsides or obvious markers (leaving smells) for three main purposes: one is to make road signs so that they don't get lost when they come back; The second is to enclose the territory for yourself and warn those who come that the property rights of this place have been owned, and you should not enter! Third: it is to cover the signs (smells) of other animals that have been circled before, telling the former that the world is public, and Hugh is domineering! To put it simply, animals make markers, like boundaries between neighbors, hoping to recognize each other.
However, the boundaries of neighborhoods are mutually recognized and observed. The boundaries of animals are extremely turbulent. For the strong, under the whole world, it is not my soil, even if you sprinkle the blood circle, it will not help.
It's ridiculous to say that animals want to occupy territory with just a bunch of pee of their own, so as to stop laughing! In fact, they also understand that this is absolutely impossible, but they still enjoy it, and even if the allantois are shy and their mouth is dry, they still try their best.
- It's in their nature. If you want to change it, you have to evolve it for thousands of years.
Evati couldn't understand it, and said: "Those two guys who look like Lida look like they give people a look, and they do two martial arts fights, and they disperse before they see each other." In that case, it's better not to fight in the first place. ”
Awati was devastated and dejected.
"Maybe it's because of the blood. It's like a brother in a family, who seems to be really fighting, but in fact, they are all merciful. ”
In fact, the one who came made a special trip to woo the previous one. Maybe it's the one who didn't have the same as before, or maybe it's not needed physially for the time being.
After the visitor left, the previous one crouched for a moment, stood up, and slowly walked in the direction of the herbivore.
The herbivores in front are mainly bison and pronghorn.
Aida clapped her hands and said to Evati, "Great. We can finally sit on the top of the mountain and watch the beasts hunt. ”
Evati "shh ”
The snow leopard walked straight for the pronghorn antelope. When the distance was about forty meters, it stopped.
The herd spotted the snow leopard, and although it did not run, it moved a long way in the direction where the snow leopard had gone. The distance has been completely distanced.
The snow leopard stood up. It's rethinking the plan.
The herd of bison in the distance, seeing that the pronghorn antelope had moved away, grazing on the side.
Seeing this, the snow leopard squatted down again. Sculpture in general.
"The smaller the animal, the more timid and intelligent it is. The bigger you are, the more daring and stupid you are. ”
Aida refused, saying, "Mammoths are so big, Etta is so big, are they stupid?" ”
Knowing that Aida was raised by Mammoth Eta, Evati inadvertently hurt her, and did not say anything more.
The herd of bison is about a hundred or so, large and small, and looks like a large area that will make any beast of prey salivate.
The snow leopard crawls down, not moving, carefully choosing its prey and the time of attack.
In the distance, the pronghorn saw the herd of bison move towards the place where they had been, grazing on the grass and slowly turning back.
The snow leopard is really beautiful in his heart. The tip of the tongue licks the nostrils so that it stays well unobstructed so that it can breathe normally while running.
Before the bison herd knew it, they had approached the snow leopard.
The snow leopard also chose the target, just waiting for the opportunity, just hoping that the closer the better.
Aida and Awati looked at each other earnestly and stopped talking. They want to see the excitement of the snow leopard catching its prey, and they also want the herd of antelope and bison to leave as soon as possible and not let the killing. These are all desires that they cannot control, so they can only go with the flow.
He is a master hunter! The herd of bison had already entered its running range, but it did not act rashly, and began to creep closer.
The bison herd suddenly realized that there was a killer more than ten meters away from them, and in an instant, they turned around and fled.
The snow leopard jumped up and caught up with a baby bison in a few leaps. The little bison was unexpected, and before he could react to what was going on, his neck was already firmly clamped by the snow leopard's teeth.
The little bison dragged the snow leopard for a few steps, and then fell to the ground, its hooves waving in the air.
"Yikes! It's amazing! That speed, it's like flying. Aivati said in amazement.
"You say, is it as good as Leda?"
"Nope."
"Why?"
"Leda is a tiger. My father said that the tiger is the king of the snow. ”
Aida said happily, "Ivati, your father is a master hunter. ”
After seeing the whole process of the snow leopard hunt, Evati gave the little tiger brothers some meat, and they walked down the ridge and began to march.
The snow leopard dragged the baby bison for dozens of meters, probably because the baby bison was too heavy to drag it. He stood there and looked around, unloaded one leg as fast as he could, and left with his mouth in his mouth.
The one that had been driven away came, and it stood in front of the little bison that had been opened and was missing a leg, and it raised its nose and sniffed around, and then it was feasting.
In the snowy region, wherever there are animal carcasses, there are dire wolves, and there are all kinds of scavenging birds.
More than a dozen dire wolves rushed to the scene and formed a circle, trying to snatch food from the snow leopard's mouth.
The snow leopard wants to eat, but also to expel the dire wolf, and the mouth "whine" intimidates.
A dire wolf tried to bite the baby bison by the neck, but was scared away by the comer.
The dire wolf also tried to bite the little bison on the neck, but was bitten to the ground by the comer, rolled over, and cried.
The dire wolves take turns snatching over and over again.
Seeing that the snow leopard really couldn't get rid of the dire wolf, he licked his mouth and turned away.
Dire wolves swarmed up, "whining" in their nostrils, biting desperately, fighting each other a few times from time to time.
In the face of food, the dire wolves, who have always made other beasts feared and irritated by fighting in groups, are not so united and harmonious. The only law is that the strong eat first, and the weak take a breath.
Herbivores can own a meadow with each other without interfering with each other. Carnivores only eat in families and never share them with other families or families. Only the dire wolf, there is a slight difference. Fight collectively, share collectively. It's just a matter of precedence.
Perhaps, the weak, longs for harmony. Strong, dictatorial and domineering. …… The latest ~ chapter Baidu search: 〃 blue * color * book * bar 〃
