After spending five days in Lagos and tasting all the seafood, Olsen set off for Bauchi in northern Nigeria.

They spend the next two days at the wildlife sanctuary in Bauchi.

Driving two jeeps, they began to drive straight inside along the entrance to the reserve.

Africa is the flat continent with the most plains in the world, and its grasslands are a haven for wildlife.

Zebras, wildebeests, antelopes, giraffes, African elephants......

These wild animals, which can only be seen on TV, appear in front of them one by one as the car goes deeper.

Not far away, a few trees were propped up on the ground like umbrellas, and a few baboons were standing on the trees looking at them.

"It's an acacia tree, it's full of thorns, except for baboons, no animal can get up, and it's also an evergreen tree of the savannah.

Ancestors say that giraffes don't have long necks at first, but in order to survive, they have to work hard to make their necks longer before they can eat the leaves of the acacia tree. ”

The tour guide explained to them while driving.

This legend was very interesting, and it also made Tang Tian and Olsen laugh.

"What's that?"

The car drove forward a little further, and several barrel-like trees appeared in front of them, and it looked like at least a dozen people were hugging.

The top leaves of the tree are sparse and grow very strangely.

"It was a gift from God, the totem of Africa, the greatest treasure of our ancestors, the baobab tree."

When the tour guide talked about the tree, a strong devotion appeared on his originally lazy face.

If he hadn't been driving the car, he might have really knelt down like a god.

From the mouth of the guide, Tang Tian and Olsen heard about the function of this tree.

After listening to them, they can also understand the reason why the tour guide is so pious.

Africa is a paradise for wildlife, but it is also the most water-scarce continent, with Nigeria, for example, costing 50 yuan a tonne of water.

And the trunk of this tree, which looks like a big bucket, is basically filled with water.

When water is particularly scarce, Africans will dig several holes in the trees and then draw water directly to drink.

And it's not just the water inside the tree, but the few trunks at the top of the tree that produce something called baobab.

According to the guide, the fruit tastes like bread when baked, and it tastes delicious when stir-fried.

At first, Olsen was only interested, but when he heard that it was delicious, he directly instructed the guide to drive the car that way.

On top of the tree was a group of baboons, screaming at the sight of them approaching.

The tree is called Baobab because the fruit is a favorite of monkeys and baboons.

The tour guide was very professional, and after going down, he greeted the bodyguards in the back car and shouted very threateningly at the baboons in the trees.

After the baboons lost their momentum, they all ran down from the baobab trees and fled in a hurry.

Tang Tian and Olsen were stunned when they looked at it in the back.

Sure enough, the solutions to the problems here are the most primitive.

Driving away the baboons, the guide pulled out the climbing tools directly from the trunk.

It can be seen that he should usually do this kind of thing.

The texture of the tree is very loose, but fortunately it is not very high, and the guide climbs it with dexterity, and then directly knocks down the fruits.

The fruit is yellow and looks a bit like an unripe coconut.

They fought a dozen of them, put them in the trunk of the car, and then continued to drive forward.

When they arrived at the temporary camp where they were resting, they all got off one after another.

The tour guides and bodyguards roasted baobabs, and Tang Tian and Olsen were holding binoculars to look at the scenery on the grassland in the distance.

Because it was summer, the weather was hot, and it was almost noon.

The animals that used to walk on the grassland tried to hide in the shade of the trees as much as possible to avoid the evaporation of water from their bodies.

It was also under the shade of these trees that they saw the king of the steppes that they had never seen before, the African lion.

The African lion is the largest lion and second only to the Siberian tiger among cats, making it the true king of the grasslands.

Those manes on the head of the male lion look domineering and leaking.

Where they are, the other animals stand far away, for fear of being food in their mouths.

But fortunately, lions are solitary animals, otherwise the biological population of this grassland would have been greatly reduced.

Olsen took out a telephoto camera to take a picture, and Tang Tian turned the telescope elsewhere.

In a relatively low-lying area, a herd of African wild buffalo gathered.

There should be a pond there.

Wild buffaloes are large and have horns, and even the female lioness at the peak of their peak do not dare to attack them at will.

As soon as they went there, they directly took over the entire water source.

The other animals had to wait on the periphery and wait until they had finished drinking before going in.

This is the magical place of the African savannah, where predators and prey are in a relatively balanced state.

But just as he was watching, suddenly a lame and injured female lion entered Tang Tian's sight.

Its stomach was shriveled and it looked like it hadn't eaten in a while.

Tang Tian had watched some of Zhao Zhongxiang's shows before, and he still had some understanding of the survival of African lions.

The most impressive thing is the African lion and the "flat-headed brother" honey badger, the honey badger is not afraid of the sky and the earth, and is not afraid of the African lion.

But in fact, the fundamental reason why African lions don't fight honey badgers is that the pay-to-reward ratio is very low, and the risk is very high.

Winning is just a small piece of meat, but once you get hurt, you are likely to face death.

Here, the laws of nature are cruel.

Just like the female lioness Tang Tian saw, she couldn't finish hunting because she was injured, she starved, her combat effectiveness was further reduced, and death was only a matter of time.

"What are you looking at?"

Olsen's voice came at this time.

"That lion is so pitiful, it wants to drink water, right?"

Olsen must have picked up the telescope and looked over there.

"Not necessarily, it looks hungry."

Tang Tian opened his mouth and said.

He said this with a hint of surprise in his tone, for the lioness was already in a state of attack.

But an injured lioness attacking such a herd of wild buffalo is almost like committing suicide.

"Ahh

At Olsen's scream, the lioness rushed towards the herd of buffalo, which it targeted for a calf.

But before it could rush to it, the adult buffalo next to it all stood together to protect the calf, and the peripheral buffalo even used their horns to top the lioness.

The lioness looked a little sluggish in her reaction, and her stomach was almost pierced directly, and although she dodged, she was still injured, and blood was flowing from above.

It limped away from the buffalo herd and stood unwillingly at a distance for a few moments before leaving with its head bowed.

It should not be far from death.

Olsen was a little distressed.

However, Tang Tian didn't react much.

If the lioness really bites the baby buffalo to death, then it should be distressed for the buffalo again.

Just like the previous tour guide who drove away the baboons to get the breadfruit, the natural competition law in Africa is the most direct, and the strong survive.
