Chapter 58: Pre-Devonian Creatures
Chapter 58: Pre-Devonian Creatures
In the early morning, the morning mist covers the earth like a thin veil. At this time, everything is revived, and all kinds of animals in the forest are moving.
It is Wang Badao's habit to hunt prey in the early morning, and after patrolling his territory, Wang Badao finally locked on to the target - the hippopotamus herd.
Although there are many species of animals in the Amazon, there are 2,500 species of fish, more than 1,600 species of birds, and various poisonous insects...... There are so many animals you can imagine and can't imagine are countless. But the size of ordinary animals is too small, and they can't satisfy Wang Badao's appetite at all. But an animal like a hippopotamus can be killed enough to sustain a day's consumption. Small animals such as fish, birds, etc., can satisfy their appetite in at least hundreds or thousands.
In the case of choice, Wang Badao naturally does not want to spend more effort, and can kill a hippopotamus at a time.
Wang Badao swam in front of a small tributary, poured into the water, and hid at the bottom of the water.
In fact, due to the increase in size, Wang Badao is also a little distressed, at least the hidden place is not easy to find. The size of the 28-meter python is unimaginable, and even if it is circling, it can cover five or six meters of the ground......
Soon after, Wang Badao, who was under the water, saw the hippopotamus swimming slowly, and he was ready to hunt and kill the hippopotamus......
However, this is also the king's domineering strength, even in the face of the entire hippopotamus herd, he is not afraid, but this does not mean that the hippopotamus is not terrifying!
The hippopotamus is the largest omnivorous mammal among the freshwater species and is one of two extended species in the family Hippopotamidae (the other being the Pyropopotamus).
They prefer to inhabit swamps and reeds near rivers. Foraging, mating, calving, and lactation are all carried out in the water, making it the largest terrestrial mammal in the world. The average hippopotamus is 3.1-4.2 meters long and weighs an average of 1.3 tons.
For adult hippos, although Wang Badao can swallow it, it will inevitably affect his activity and strength after swallowing. Therefore, when it is not necessary, Wang Badao generally does not swallow prey that is much larger than his own size. Of course, the target of Wang Badao is not adult hippos, but hippopotamus cubs.
Wang Badao quietly lurked underwater, quietly approaching the hippopotamus at the bottom of the river......
The herd of hippos in front of him is covered in a thick layer of skin, the skin is blue-black with brick-red markings, and there is almost no hair on the body except for some short hairs on the tail. However, hippos have a lot of fat and are more resistant to digestion than other animals after swallowing, which is one of the reasons why Wang Badao chose to hunt hippos.
Suddenly.
Wang Badao found an interesting thing, he found that there were animals with the same intention as him.
There was actually a crocodile quietly approaching the hippopotamus, and this crocodile was a Nile crocodile. The average hippopotamus has little to do with the Nile crocodile, the two sides basically coexist peacefully, sometimes the Nile crocodile will hunt the lone baby hippopotamus, and the hippopotamus also has a record of attacking the Nile crocodile and killing the small Nile crocodile.
Seeing the Nile crocodile, Wang was so domineering that he was not in a hurry to hunt, but watched from the sidelines. Because, too, it's a joie de vivre!
After being reborn as a python, Wang Badao has no other entertainment activities, unlike human beings, entertainment is developed, and he is not afraid of no entertainment activities, but he is afraid that he will have no time for entertainment.
The Nile crocodile finally approached the hippopotamus herd, and under the surprise attack, successfully killed a hippopotamus cub.
Just when Wang Badao thought that the matter was over, everything was over. Suddenly, a male hippopotamus king, who was several laps larger than an ordinary hippopotamus, became in trouble, roared, and suddenly attacked the Nile crocodile not far away, pouring out his mouth and biting the Nile crocodile fiercely.
The Nile crocodile was clearly unprepared and was bitten squarely.
In Wang Badao's surprised gaze, the Nile crocodile was actually bitten in two by the hippopotamus...... This result is obviously out of Wang's expectations, although Wang Badao has always known that the hippopotamus has an amazing bite, but he never imagined that it could bite an adult Nile crocodile.
How does Wang Badao know that hippos are recognized as highly dangerous animals. The hippopotamus is so short-tempered that it is said that if an animal happens to be standing on the hippopotamus' way back to the pool, the hippopotamus will open its bloody mouth and bite the unfortunate animal to death with its 40 cm long fangs without warning. It is said that there have been cases of tourists who have been attacked by hippos while boating in the river.
Hippos can be immersed in water throughout the day, exposing only their nostrils and eyes at the surface, and can dive breathlessly for six minutes, where they still walk on their legs.
Hippos are very irrational animals, they are very particular about territorial power, and will carry out crazy battles with hippos that invade the territory, which is somewhat similar to the king's domineering.
Moreover, when the hippopotamus is booming, even the small hippos in the vicinity have no time to pay attention, and it is not surprising that they are bitten to death and trampled to death.
After the king of the hippo bit the Nile crocodile to death, Wang Ba once again thought that the matter was over. But things turned out unexpectedly. I saw a ** meter long scaly turtle suddenly jumped out of the bottom of the river, as fast as lightning, in the hippopotamus just bit the Nile crocodile to death, blood stained the red river surface, ready to retreat, the scaly turtle bit the hippopotamus, the whole hippopotamus seems to be made of tofu, and it is easily bitten into a pulp...... The scaly turtle's bloody mouth seems to be a meat grinder, and there is a huge amount of power hidden in it!
"It's ...... Dun's Fish ?!!! Wang Badao exclaimed in his heart.
"But it can't be! The Dunkle fish became extinct 3 or 400 million years ago, so how could there still be a ...... of Dunkle fish in the Amazon? ”
Dunkle is a representative member of the dinosauridae, the largest known member of the shield fish family, a giant carnivorous pachyderm that lived in the Devonian period about 360 million to 415 million years ago, and is the absolute overlord of the Silurian and Devonian oceans. It has the largest bite force and amazing suction power of any known creature on Earth.
Sharks have long been regarded as the most ferocious animals in the ocean. However, if you learn that sharks with a bite force of less than 1 ton are now rampant in the marine world, the Dun's fish, which has been ancient for hundreds of millions of years, may feel that they have "died young". With a bite force of more than 11,000 pounds (5 tons) to devour its prey, it is the most powerful biting creature ever discovered. It's a shark that comes in front of it, and it can tear it in half in one bite! Located at the top of the food chain of the ocean at that time, the Dunkle fish could prey on any kind of creature in the Devonian ocean, and it was probably the first "king of beasts" on Earth; It existed 175 million years before the birth of the first dinosaur on land.
Although the dunkle is powerful, its huge body and size greatly affect the speed and agility of the dunkle's movement, which makes it gradually lose to the small sharks and other carnivorous fish in the evolutionary process. Coupled with the changes in the earth's environment, it eventually gradually left the arena of biological reproduction and evolution.
Wang Badao's heart was full of doubts, because how could there still be a Deng fish alive in this era......?
Wang Badao is not an expert in the study of prehistoric animals, and the reason why he knows the information of the Deng's fish is that there is information about the existence of the Deng's fish in the memory of the black dragon absorbed. Perhaps it was the little attention that the black dragon at that time paid to this first "king of beasts" who suddenly appeared on the earth.
However, after careful observation, Wang Badao found that this Dun's fish had degenerated, and although the speed was incomparable at the moment, the bite force had decreased, and Wang Badao estimated that it would not exceed two tons of bite force. But even a two-ton bite is terrifying, twice as strong as a shark, and one of the races that can dominate even in the ocean! Even the strongest great white shark has a bite force of no more than 1.8 tons, and the great white shark has no natural predators, but there are opponents, and the killer whales that can kill the great white shark in the ocean are killer whales......
