Chapter 27 (Part I) The Rabbit Kicks His Legs

"Grandpa, I don't know how to raise rabbits?" Ma Xiaomei suddenly thought of a very important thing.

She didn't know how to raise rabbits, so what if Ma Li caught them back?

What should I do if I raise the rabbit to death?

Ma Xiaomei was very worried.

"The hare is simple. They are hardly picky eaters and eat a lot of things. You can feed it with wild grasses, leaves and other plants, all kinds of grasses, greens, straws, etc. Generally, green fodder and juicy feed are fed in the morning and lunch, and green fodder and a small amount of pellet feed are fed in the evening. Grandpa smiled and told him what he knew.

Grandpa had also been fortunate enough to catch a few small animals such as hares before, and how could people in the mountains not catch a few small animals.

Some are also fed for a period of time, and then slaughtered during the New Year's holidays.

Generally speaking, as long as you are not too timid like a bird, as long as you are willing to eat food, it is easy to feed.

"Oh, okay, brother, it's up to you, grandpa has already taught me how to feed the rabbits, you have to help me catch a few rabbits and bring them back!" Ma Xiaomei sat up happily and said mischievously.

Ma Xiaomei listened to Grandpa's statement and felt that feeding small animals was indeed very simple and easy.

All of a sudden, I became very confident.

I looked forward more and more to Ma Li to catch the rabbit and take it home to feed.

"No problem, now that you've found the rabbit's nest, can't you catch the rabbit!" Ma Li, who had a beginner hunter skill, naturally became full of confidence, and quietly walked in the direction of the hare's escape......

The hare is very dense all the way up, and there is a high probability that the hare nest is very high.

If you catch a nest of hares, you won't make much money.

But at least there is a lot of meat at home, which is much better than eating wild vegetable pastry every day!

"Why do you find a rabbit nest and you must be able to catch a rabbit?" asked Ma Xiaomei with some curiosity.

In her mind, she always thought that the rabbit would escape quickly.

I didn't expect the hare to still have a nest.

Therefore, Ma Xiaomei was very curious to ask the grandfather next to her, asking for some experiences that she liked to see.

"Wild rabbits give birth to three or four litters in the hidden rabbit nest every year, 5-6 litters each, and there are almost 20 little hares in a year, and it will be terrible in five or six years! Many crops will be destroyed by hares!" Grandpa thought for a while and said.

Hare still reproduce very quickly, giving birth to a litter in a few months, far more than most other small animals.

If the brothers and sisters had not been separated, and several generations had come together, I don't know how many rabbits would have been born.

"Oh! There can be more than 20 little hares a year! Doesn't it mean that the natural enemies of hares are?" Ma Xiaomei calculated, but still felt that the number of little white rabbits seemed to be a bit too much!

The number of more than 20 little hares far exceeds Ma Xiaomei's cognition, and it is very good to have 5 or 6 little white rabbits in her mind.

I didn't expect to give birth to so many little rabbits, and she didn't know if she should take them home!

"Although there are many natural predators of hares, they are alert by nature, sensitive to hearing and vision, fleeing quickly, and hiding closely, and there are really few who can really catch them! Even the strongest eagles in the sky may not be able to easily take down hares. Grandpa smiled and said.

Grandpa knows what Ma Xiaomei wants to hear!

It's not about ordinary things, she likes things she doesn't know, things that are interesting.

So gradually began to talk a little exaggerated, which made Ma Xiaomei listen to it with relish.

"If there are more hares in more than ten years, then these hares, big and small, will be a disaster. Ma Xiaomei thought about it and nodded and said.

Although she heard Grandpa mention the eagle in the sky, Ma Xiaomei didn't believe it too much in her heart.

Instead, focus on how disastrous the hares can have on the crops.

The more disaster years and famine years, many children in the mountain villages starved to death, and Ma Xiaomei also heard about it to some extent.

Hares are actually harmful to many crops, many crops are what they like to eat, such as carrots, sweet potatoes, vegetables and freshly unearthed bean seedlings, soybean seedlings, broad bean seedlings, soybean seedlings are particularly harmful. Grandpa said with some regret and distress.

It seems that these hares are white and cute, and they look very pleasant and cute, but then again, these hares are still very harmful to the crops.

The hare is somewhat like innocent children, and many times there is no way to handle them.

It's hard to catch them, at least for the average person.

"Grandpa, you haven't said why eagles can't necessarily catch hares!" said Ma Xiaomei with a cute little mouth.

If you want to say that it is true to care about the crops, it will involve whether you are hungry or not, but now Ma Li can catch fish in the river, cook in the kitchen, and make money in the market, so he will not be hungry for a while.

Ma Xiaomei naturally began to pay attention to her more relational eagle.

Grandpa saw Ma Xiaomei's hazy eyes, and saw that the little girl was about to thunder and rain, so he immediately coaxed Ma Xiaomei: "One day the hare came out to find food to eat, and it happened to be seen by the eagle flying in the sky!"

"How high does the eagle fly, how can you see a hare in the grass in the sky?" said Ma Xiaomei, looking at the sky.

Can you see a hare in the grass from such a high point in the sky?

What a look at the eyes!

The eagle's eyes are very powerful, just like us humans are farsighted. Their ancestors have been flying in the sky, and the more powerful their eyes are, the more they can catch prey, and the better they will naturally live, otherwise they will starve to death without food!"

Think of the eagle as a farsighted eye!

They have sharp eyes and can see thousands of meters and beyond.

"Oh, I see, if you don't have a good eye in the sky, you won't have anything to eat, I understand!" Ma Xiaomei nodded and felt that this was the case.

Ma Xiaomei understood as soon as she heard this, if her eyes were not good, she would have no food, what a tragic price she had!

That look must be good!

When the eagle saw the hare hiding in the grass to feed, it struck quickly, and swooped down in the sky, and pounced fiercely on the hare, which knew nothing. Grandpa continued to tell the legend of the hare and the eagle.

The fascinating feeling made Ma Xiaomei very excited.

"It's miserable!, is there anything wrong with the hare?" said Ma Xiaomei with an anxious face.

Ma Xiaomei began to worry about the hare.

At the same time, she was worried about her little bunny-

If you catch a rabbit in Mali, will it be eaten by the eagle at that time?

"The alert hare has a strong sense of hearing and sight – very sensitive. Although he was unable to detect the eagle in the sky at first, he quickly noticed the anomaly in the sky, and instead of running away, the hare rushed to catch the eagle.

But soon the hare was beaten to the ground. ”
