Chapter 118: Sitting on the Mountain and Watching the Tiger Fight
Looking closely, the entire migration team is actually very particular about the formation.
On the periphery of the procession are a circle of large adult herbivores, much larger than the meso-clawed beasts outside, such as crested tooth and giant rhino. Because of their protection, carnivores do not dare to come forward to provoke.
Further inside are the cubs of these herbivores, not as tall and strong as their fathers, but most of them are not too small. The smaller ones are more tightly wrapped inside, and almost only the thick thighs of the elders can be seen.
Moreover, small animals such as Archaeopteryx are also interspersed among these large animals. For them, it's the safest place to stay on the road. Tall crested tooth beasts and the like didn't seem to resist this, and they didn't bother to expel them.
So under normal circumstances, it is not easy for those carnivores on the periphery to harvest something to eat in such a tight line. If you rush inside, you will only be trampled to death.
They can only cautiously follow these large groups of creatures from far and near, occasionally encountering a sickly solitary animal, and then swarming to eat it. While this may sound almost unrealistic, the fauna is so large that if you are patient, you will always find such an opportunity.
If you're lucky enough to catch a giant animal like a dinosaur, a medium-sized herd of mesoclawed beasts can rely on the meat to last until the entire fauna returns a few months later. As a result, this great migration attracts many good hunters, ready to eat the food that comes to their mouths.
"Boom!"
With the sound of something crashing to the ground. A crested tooth herd suddenly erupted into a violent commotion. Qiao Hua looked over there, only to see that the large team that was originally moving forward suddenly appeared a small cut off.
From the angle at which the dwarf tyrannosaurus was standing, it was just enough to see what was happening in the crest-toothed herd below. A juvenile crest-toothed beast, untold by exhaustion or illness, collapsed to the ground after a long trek.
Several adult crest-toothed beasts stuck out their tongues and licked the calf's head for a long time, trying to regain the little one's vigor in this way. But the latter, though on all four legs, was trying to get up from the ground. In the end, it still ended in failure.
The herd that had stopped because of this incident began to stir, and some of the adult crest-toothed beasts behind began to roar uneasily.
If the crown-toothed herd is left behind by the large group because of its long stay, the entire herd will be in an extremely dangerous situation, and it may be attacked by carnivores at any time. Without the protective role of the large team, these crested tooth beasts are really tough with those hunters on the periphery, and they will definitely lead to heavy losses.
Although the adult crested tooth next to the little one still felt unwilling. But the current environment forced them to abandon it and continue to turn their heads and drive forward.
The carnivores, who had an extremely sensitive sense of smell and hearing, all smelled the special atmosphere here for a moment, and before the herd in front of them left, they were already eager to rush in, but in the end, they were afraid of the power of the outermost giant beasts and chose to continue to wander around the periphery.
At last. Once all the animals had rumbled past the front, some of the mesoclaws were finally able to gather around the small crest-toothed beast that had fallen to the ground and began to pounce in all directions.
The little crested tooth struggled weakly, roaring incessantly under the siege of the Medium-clawed beasts. Finally, a burly medium-clawed beast pounced on the little crest-toothed beast and bit it down the neck, finally ending the poor little thing's life.
Qiao Hua, who was standing on a mound not far away, saw this situation and felt that from a certain angle, this little crested tooth beast should actually be grateful to the medium-clawed beast that bit it to death. Because of the existence of this medium-clawed beast, the little crested tooth was able to avoid more torture in the last moments of its life.
Although the manner in which the baby crest-toothed beast died seemed somewhat brutal. But in Qiao Hua's eyes, this is actually a not bad result.
The natural food chain is an interlocking chain. In this way, it is only natural for carnivorous mesodons to eat crest-toothed beasts. If it wasn't the little crested tooth that died. There will still be other animals that will be in the belly of the Medium-clawed beasts. From this point of view, the death of the little crested tooth can be regarded as having a certain value.
Although this dwarf tyrannosaurus still carries some human emotions, there are some things that require him to look at them with a more rational attitude. Qiao Hua didn't have the compassion of the Buddha to cut meat and feed the eagle, and he was also a member of the food chain, so talking about hoeing the strong and helping the weak was equivalent to being a. The son also wants to set up the archway, which is ridiculous.
"Squeak-"
At this time, the kernel suddenly jumped twice on Qiao Hua's back. After comprehending the meaning of this cry. Qiao Hua turned his head and looked in the other direction.
Over there, the four ancient giant pigs were like four mountains. Slowly moved towards the Middle-Clawed herd. Two medium-clawed beasts had already spotted the behemoths not far away, and began to let out some kind of warning roar at their companions.
Qiao Hua carefully counted the number of clawed beasts. There are seven of them. However, the combined weight of these seven medium-clawed beasts may not be as heavy as the four ancient giant boars. Probably these ancient giant pigs have already noticed the situation here, but they are just a step slower. Now seeing that the clawed beasts want to snatch the fruit that belongs to them, they are naturally unwilling.
Qiao Hua felt that the situation seemed to have become interesting, and simply watched the upcoming dragon and tiger fight with interest on the spot.
The number of middle-clawed beasts was relatively large, and in an arc-shaped formation, they faced several ancient giant pigs running over with heavy steps, and let out a series of roars. But the ancient giant pigs completely ignored such a deterrent, and even regarded it as a provocation, so they rushed over even faster.
"Hmph-"
Although the cry of the ancient giant pig seemed very imposing, these behemoths running like large armored vehicles, the wind that was wrapped in them rushed straight towards the clawed beasts.
The group of mid-clawed beasts that had been in a defensive stance just now immediately roared and dispersed, while the ancient giant boars rushed past where they had just been in a crushing posture.
“duang、duang、duang……”
Before the big guys could turn around, the Middle-Clawed Beasts had already spotted this opportunity and pounced on an ancient giant pig at the back at lightning speed. (To be continued)
