61. It's lucky
Just go over this long dense forest, climb over the high mountain, and you can see the forest where it was born.
It was born there, grew up healthy under the care of its mother, and was given half of its mother's territory when it became an adult.
But alas, the forest is getting more and more barren, and it has to embark on a lonely journey to find a new home.
In this life, it has crossed mountains and mountains, and it has also fought with its own people.
It has preyed on countless animals, and as it grows up, it has accumulated a wealth of hunting experience and slowly mastered its skills, and it is happiest at that time.
It finally finds a stable and lush forest to make its home, then goes into heat, mates, and raises offspring.
She was the queen of the forest and an excellent mother.
But the mortal body cannot withstand birth, old age, sickness and death, and with old age and weakness, it has long lost the robustness and beauty of its youth.
Luckily, it was lucky enough.
He was not plundered by his own kind in the cruelty of the forest, nor was he killed by other predators due to old age and weakness.
Even, it has strong and affectionate offspring, and when it is old, it can still get prey from its children from time to time, otherwise it will have died on the way to hunting.
It's already its luck to live so long.
Tiger Dad looked at his mother's back, hesitantly trying to keep up, but instinct told him he couldn't.
It wasn't until the figure of the old female tiger was gradually submerged in the woods that the tiger father slowly came back to his senses.
Looking at the dense forest, Tiger Dad felt a wave of sadness in his heart, which made it uncomfortable and angry, but there was no way to vent it.
Even at that time, it returned from wandering outside, defeated his father, snatched the throne, and drove out his father, who was already old. It doesn't feel that way either.
It just follows the rules of the race and fulfills the craving in the bloodline.
But now, it felt a little less like a beast......
The changes in Tiger Dad, Lin Qian didn't know.
In the middle of the night, it heard the roar of a tiger belonging to Tiger Daddy in the distance.
Sadness, anger, depression...... Mixed with total total emotions.
When the tiger mother heard the tiger roar, her eyes showed a hint of worry, but it quickly dissipated.
Next, Lin Qian could always hear a tiger roaring from the mountains and forests in the distance, it was the voice of the tiger father.
Lin Qian sensed the meaning of the tiger's roar, and then looked at the tiger mother who only occasionally showed a hint of worry.
At this time, he suddenly understood that the old female tiger was "grandma".
Tiger Dad's wail lasted for three days.
During these three days, the mountains were shaken, and the animals were restless and afraid, trembling under the roar of the tiger, and all the animals were more cautious, fearing that one of them would lose their lives if they were not careful.
Sensing that the tiger roar was gone, Lin Qian also knew that the "funeral" held by the tiger father was over.
Maybe the old female tiger is still alive now, but Daddy Tiger has indeed held a funeral.
(The author isn't sure if this is the case with tigers, but in a documentary video, a female tiger screamed and howled for three days after learning that her mate was gone/dead.)
So, tigers also have feelings! )
Although the tiger roar disappeared, Lin Qian began to worry a little about the tiger father.
The sorrowful screams for three consecutive days are enough to see how sad Tiger Dad is.
Just when Lin Qian was worried, in the evening of the same day, Tiger Dad appeared.
The mighty colorful tiger, full of exhaustion, like a wounded giant beast, was filled with a sad atmosphere all over his body.
The tiger mother stepped forward and gently comforted her spouse.
Lin Qian hurriedly trotted forward, rubbing his tiger father hard, hoping that his small body could bring comfort to the tiger father.
Courage is also rubbing against the tiger father, and the little tiger cub is still low, as if comforting the tiger father.
Probably because of the warmth of his wife and children, Tiger Dad recovered a lot of energy, rubbed Tiger Mom, hugged the brothers and licked them again, and then fell asleep.
Lin Qianhe and Courage did not leave the arms of the tiger father, and the two little ones curled up in the arms of the tiger father, squinting and sleepy next to the big tiger.
The tiger mother looked at the father and son gently, and turned away gently.
Night has come, and it is going to hunt.
Tiger Dad stayed in this small home for three days, and then left full of energy.
The mother and son continued to live their own small lives by the pond, and Lin Qian became more and more diligent in training his hunting skills.
In late summer and early autumn, when the tiger is 6 months old and grows to 9 months in size, it has decided to attack the real big game.
Lin Qian didn't go with courage this time, the tacit understanding of the brothers was in place, and it was indeed easier to succeed in cooperative hunting.
But after all, they are tigers, and fighting alone is what they are good at.
What will happen in the future, Lin Qian can't predict, ensuring that he and his courage have a strong enough ability to protect themselves is the first thing.
Therefore, as soon as the evening came, the tiger mother came out to hunt, and Lin Qian followed with courage, and said that the mother and son were hunting separately.
The tiger mother was originally a little worried, but now the growth of the tiger cubs is enough to protect themselves, even if they encounter danger, as long as they shout, they can quickly arrive nearby.
So under Lin Qian's insistence and courageous and excited eyes, the tiger mother agreed.
Lin Qian walked slowly, looking for a target in the forest.
Hunting requires luck and patience, and the process of finding prey is a long test.
However, Lin Qian was lucky today, he had only walked two kilometers, and he saw a small group of red deer grazing a hundred meters ahead.
Red deer are also known as European red deer, octopatal deer, red deer. It is a large deer species, second only to the moose. The body length is about 180 cm, the shoulder height is 110-130 cm, and the adult male weighs about 200 kg, and the female weighs about 150 kg.
Red deer have a dark brown body with some white spots on their back and sides.
Among them, the horns of the stag are large, usually divided into six to eight prongs, and some can reach nine to ten prongs, and the second fork of the horn is close to the brow fork. Hinds have no horns.
The six adult red deer, none of which had antlers on their heads, were apparently females.
Red deer are creatures in which male red deer mostly walk alone, while female red deer travel in pairs. Male red deer will only travel in company with female red deer when they are in heat.
There are no bucks in this group of red deer, which is exactly what Lin Qian wants.
But it's a pity that there are no red deer.
Lin Qian looked at the sturdy red deer herd and hesitated.
Although I was going to try to hunt large game, it seemed that the difficulty was a bit too high......
However, if you look for prey again, you don't know how much time it will take, and you may not be able to meet the prey.
After thinking about it, Lin Qian still planned to give it a try, even if it failed, it would be nothing, and the female red deer would not be able to hurt it at all.
Looking at the huge body of the red deer, Lin Qian couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
It's gluttonous!
If you can hunt one, you can definitely eat a tiger for two or three days!
He lowered his breath, leaned on his stomach, looked for cover, and crept close to the herd of red deer.
These red deer were grazing and eating happily, completely unaware that they were being targeted.
