Yu Yiqu, an expert in endangered animals, opens his eyes to find himself transformed into a wild South China tiger cub.
He struggles to stand up, lifts his fluffy head, and lets out his first...
Chapter 39: Mackenzie Wolves (VIII)
Thanks to that enthusiastic supporter who was very suitable to be a university lecturer, Yu Yiyun finally knew the names of her father, mother, and the Queen.
At the same time, he also knew that the wolf pack he was in was the Adam wolf pack that was brutally destroyed by the 'Four Tyrants' of the Lecce wolf pack.
"…Adam's pack is my favorite pack, and I still can't accept it."
"Jin Tong, you must avenge your father and bite the four tyrants of Lecce to death!"
"Otherwise, I and all the supporters of Adam Wolf Pack will not be able to swallow this bitter pill!"
The supporters spoke eloquently and with tears streaming down their cheeks, but Yu Yiyun did not have many thoughts in her mind.
The so-called "revenge" is merely the emotion they impose on wolves from a human perspective.
If revenge really exists in the animal world, how could wolves ever take revenge when so many animals have been killed?
Even if what the other party said is true, if we remove the human emotions from the story, the essence is nothing more than a fight for territory among wolves.
Just as South China tigers will seek out more fertile territories due to food shortages, wolves will do the same.
In the case of scarce resources, "plundering territory" is just a survival choice made by wolves.
Yu Yiyun could not forgive the enemy beast that caused her family to be destroyed and her to become homeless.
But they would not fight to the death with the Lecce wolves at all costs just for such subjective emotional factors as "revenge".
Born as wolves, "survival" is the family's greatest goal.
What's the difference between him seeking revenge on the Lecce wolf pack and committing suicide?
Putting aside the passionate declaration of revenge of the enthusiastic supporter, Yu Yiyun extracted the changes of his wolf pack and the general situation of several surrounding wolf packs from his eloquent speech.
Apart from his own wolf pack, Yu Yiyun was of course most concerned about the queen's wolf pack.
Although not much information was obtained from the boys, 'Teresa likes to raise puppies' seems to have become a consensus in the human world.
Yu Yiyun thought about the dogs in the wolf pack and wanted to correct him:
The Queen prefers to keep Huskies!
Look at her eldest son, he is so brainless and has been brought up to be so pure.
If you participate in a Husky competition, you will definitely win the championship.
The hot-blooded supporters squatted by the hot spring, chattering for two hours, and left reluctantly until closing time.
During this time, he stretched out his hand countless times, trying to secretly rub the wolf cub.
The black ball dodged with the help of its excellent dog paddle.
Horrible upright ape!
Retreat!
Finally, the people left and the black-haired ball climbed up to the shore grunting.
I shook my hair and found...
I can't shake it.
The first snow came suddenly, but its momentum should not be underestimated.
In just a few hours, the surrounding temperature dropped below zero.
As soon as Yu Yiyun climbed out of the water, ice crystals immediately formed from the tips of her hair to the roots.
The black hair solidified in clumps, as if it had been sprayed with the strongest hairspray.
If I had known earlier, I should have caught that savage and used him as a bath towel!
[Dog face confused.jpg]
The savage had already disappeared, so he had no choice but to rub his freshly washed fur everywhere, rolling on the ground to get rid of most of the ice crystals.
The raven spread its wings and flew down, landing on the black ball's head. It pecked at it twice and then became impatient, yelling and calling him a fool.
How in the world is there a stupid dog that gets covered in ice after soaking in a hot spring?
"Oh, oh, oh..." Yu Yiyun made a coquettish little voice.
I'm already honest, please let me go.
With the help of the raven, most of the ice crystals were finally removed.
Yu Yiyun walked home in the cold wind and dark night.
There was not even a moon in the sky after the snow. Fortunately, wolves are nocturnal animals. Their eyes are better than the best night cameras and they are not afraid of the darkness.
There are no tourists in Yellowstone Park at night, but it is not quiet.
The sounds of wild animals could be heard everywhere, along with the high and low howls of wolves.
Some wolves are calling their companions to hunt in the first snow.
Some wolves send out mating signals, hoping to find a mate before winter and form a new pack.
There is also a husky, just barking randomly...
Social animals communicate closely with each other, and many signals are common.
Yu Yiyun vaguely understood the calls and found them quite interesting. She was going to go home and tell her mother and the queen where the wolves were, when they hunted, and so on.
In a large wolf pack, there are wolves that are specifically responsible for keeping watch and collecting information.
The sentinel wolves will remember the sounds they hear, and if they encounter an unfamiliar smell, they will roll over on the spot and rub it on their fur, then bring the information home to share with the pack.
The wolf cub is only half a year old, but he is already capable of doing the job of keeping watch~!
The sky was getting darker and darker. Yu Yiyun, whose hair was covered with ice crystals, was shivering with cold. She quickened her pace, hoping to get home before nightfall.
The night after the snow was cold and windy, and he began to miss the warmth of sleeping between the marshmallow and the white collar.
My body is cold and my paws are cold too, so I need their help to warm them up.
White Collar, Marshmallow: Don’t come over here!
When he was still some distance away from home, Yu Yiyun suddenly heard an unfamiliar wolf howl coming from the southwest.
It sounds like a stray wolf invaded the wolf pack's territory and was expelled.
The Mackenzie wolf breeds once a year during late winter.
Therefore, in late autumn and early winter, large numbers of wolves who want to establish their own families will set out on a journey to find a mate, hoping to give birth to cubs by next spring.
Some male wolves who cannot find a mate will sneak into the wolf pack's territory and look for the female wolves they like.
The mate chosen by a stray male wolf is most likely the precious daughter that the chief couple raised with great difficulty, eating mutton and venison at the same time.
From a human perspective, it's like a wild boy who gets involved in society, sneaks into his own home through the window, and seduces the spoiled little princess who has been pampered to adolescence.
How could the chieftain and his wife tolerate this? !
A stray male wolf that sneaks into the territory will most likely be besieged by a wolf pack.
Yu Yiyun glanced at him sympathetically and thought without thinking:
Fortunately, Zhen'an was not born as a wolf, otherwise, with his ability to flirt with other women, all the wolf kings and queens in Yellowstone would chase after him and bite him!
The black ball thought happily and raised his paws to go home.
After hearing the third wolf howl, I finally realized something was wrong.
The wolf cub, who had a poor sense of direction, looked toward the southwest again, and finally realized:
That area is the territory of the Zhina wolf pack.
The Zhina wolf pack is ruled by four brutal male wolves. The leader is called Lecce. Ordinary stray wolves will smell the scent from afar and will definitely run away as far as they can.
Which wolf is so brave!
Sneak into Lecce's house to choose a princess, are you trying to kill yourself?
Yu Yiyun, who is forever young and always loves to join in the fun, can't restrain her passion for gossip.
After hesitating for 0.5 seconds, the dog sneaked towards the crime scene with the raven, who also loved to watch the fun.
Even though they were still several kilometers away, Yu Yijun could already hear fierce biting and fighting.
The black ball quickly sped up and ran over to watch.
Fortunately, the wolf cubs had very little body odor, and their black fur gave them a natural advantage at night, so neither side of the battle noticed a dog approaching quietly.
Yu Yijun was too lazy to even hide. He just lay there carelessly, watching the two fighting parties with great interest.
The ones who have the numerical advantage on the field should be the two tyrants and a small follower who provides the atmosphere.
The tyrant was worthy of being a tyrant. His roar was accompanied by "crunching sounds", as if he was going to bite off the invading wolf's bones.
Even at night, the wolf being besieged by the three of them could be seen to have fur as white as snow without a single spot of other colors.
What beautiful fur!
Want to touch!
The 'white fur' attribute is loved by humans, but it is actually very disadvantageous for animals.
Except in the snowy winter, the white fur of the white wolf is too eye-catching, telling its prey from a distance "I'm coming to eat you."
In other words, all albino species that can survive in the wild are extremely powerful.
Sure enough, the white wolf showed no sign of surrendering when besieged by three male wolves.
Baimao seized the opportunity and bit the leg of one of the tyrants.
While he was rolling on the ground, he ran past the tyrant in the opposite direction of the wolves.
The triangular encirclement formed by the three wolves was immediately broken up.
The remaining two wolves chased after them immediately, but the little follower ran obviously slower.
The white-haired man ran a few hundred meters and suddenly stopped, confronting the tyrant wolf that was chasing him head-on. After a few bites, he threw him to the ground.
Seeing that both tyrants were injured, the little follower was so scared that he slowed down, slid down to his knees in front of the white-haired man, and his ears became distorted by fear.
Baimao ignored the cowardly little follower and didn't even bother to give him a glance.
With blood that did not belong to him on his body, he slowly turned around and left.
From his erect tail it could be seen that he left the territory of the Zhina wolf pack not because he was expelled.
It’s just that he didn’t find the female wolf he liked.
Yu Yiyun squatted not far ahead, watching the White Wolf, who had won a great victory in the "one against three" battle, slowly walking towards him like a god of war descended from the sky.
The wolf cub was stunned for a moment and did not hide immediately to avoid conflict.
By the time the black fur ball was a beat slow to get up, the male wolf with blood on his face was already close at hand and sniffed the little wolf through the air.
"Woo woo?" The white wolf took the initiative to speak, as if asking something.
"Eh?" Yu Yiyun opened her clear eyes wide, not understanding a word.
The white wolf howled a few more times and saw that the wolf cub's eyes were becoming more and more confused.
“…”
I don't understand anything. I'm afraid I met a fake wolf.
It was the first time that Yu Yiyun saw such genuine helplessness on the wolf's face, and she secretly felt aggrieved.
I have only been a Heavenly Wolf for over forty years, and it is already amazing that I can understand the meaning of communication between family members.
The stray wolf speaks a foreign language, how can the puppy understand it?
Yu Yiyun made two "Ah-woo" sounds at him, wanting the white wolf to go with him to the vicinity of the territory to find an experienced dog language translator.
Although we have a few wolves at home, they have no experience of wandering.
But the Zhixie wolf pack has taken in several stray wolves, so they can definitely understand the White Wolf's "secret language"!
Yu Yiyun ran into Theresa's territory, waking up the sleeping loser, biting its tail and dragging it to the white wolf.
When the two male wolves met, the air froze instantly.
Yu Yijun clearly felt that the white wolf was upset. It barked at the air twice, then swung its tail and left angrily.
The defeated dog got angry after being inexplicably roared at by the white wolf, and turned into a husky and barked at the black fur ball.
Yu Yijun, who had to bear all the responsibilities for no apparent reason, looked confused and had no idea what she had done wrong.
——No wonder he didn’t know.
Baimao carefully confirmed Yu Yijun's scent and found that he did not belong to the Zhina wolf pack.
The puppy spent the entire afternoon in the hot springs and was so clean that there was not a trace of wolf smell on his body, and it was impossible to distinguish the scents of other family members.
Because Baimao had too high standards, he couldn't find the female wolf he liked. So he wanted to try his luck and asked the little wolf cub to introduce him to a strong and beautiful female wolf.
After talking for a long time, the not-so-bright wolf cub finally reacted and ran forward with him.
Baimao: You’re running so fast, you must be trying to introduce a female wolf to me!
Running to the place where the wolf pack marked its territory, the wolf cub wooed and asked White Hair to stay and not move.
Baimao just wanted to find a mate and didn't want to conflict with the wolf pack, so he squatted there cooperatively, waiting quietly for him to bring the beautiful female wolf over for a date.
Who would have thought that after waiting for more than an hour, the dog that had returned brought back a...
Male, wolf!
He is still the kind of sloppy, incompetent, and bad male wolf at the bottom of the wolf food chain.
Baimao's expectations were dashed, and he immediately got angry and walked away wagging his tail.
The loser was woken up for no apparent reason and scolded for no apparent reason, which made him so angry that he started yelling at the black fur ball.
After roaring, the defeated dog looked at the lonely back of the white wolf as it left alone, thinking that this male wolf had a pretty good temper.
If I were in the same situation, I would definitely not be nice to the whole world!
The poor little wolf cub, who was not very worldly-wise, had no idea what was going on in the end. He just thought that Baimao was picky and had a bad temper, and didn't like the dog language translator he found.
Since Baimao had left, Yu Yijun was too lazy to bother making any more trouble. He went home, dug a nest, and fell into a deep sleep.
I was frozen to a white collar and marshmallow, and had nightmares of being buried in the snow all night.
After the first snow, the temperature in Yellowstone Park dropped rapidly.
Most prey set out at the same time, migrating to warmer climes.
The forest wetlands are far from volcanoes and geysers and are among the coldest areas in the world in winter.
When a cold wave hits, the puddles near the territory freeze at night and only melt for a while when the sun comes out at noon.
It has been a long time since any large herbivores came to drink water near the puddle, and prey has become increasingly difficult to find.
In this situation, several wolf packs living in forest wetlands have spontaneously expanded their hunting ranges and often search for prey outside their territory boundaries.
In just one week, Yu Yiyun had met the powerful leader of the wolf pack twice.
When they met for the first time, the super-masculine leader with nearly twenty big wolves did not take the wolf pack seriously at all, and passed them and chased after the prey that Christine had already locked on.
Christine is a calm person and doesn't plan to confront the wolf pack head-on.
Considering that the success rate of this hunt was not high, she immediately led the wolves to retreat.
The second meeting was six days later, and the location was still near the wolf pack's territory. The super male leader took a fancy to the prey that Christine had targeted.
After forming an alliance with the wolf pack, the wolves started hunting alone, and the purpose of the training was more important than hunting itself.
In fact, they had just eaten yesterday, and except for the black ball, the other wolves were not hungry.
This time, in addition to finding food for the gluttonous black-haired ball, Christine also wanted to try out the latest lineup of her own wolf pack.
Because gloves can be used for hunting!
Gloves' injuries were not serious, and after two days of recuperation by the wolves, he was able to resume normal activities.
She used to be a bottom wolf in the Zhiheng wolf pack, and she was often not well fed, which led to her developmental delay.
The other wolves trained their hunting skills on her, but Mittens had no one to train with and only learned the simplest ways of chasing and biting.
After recovering a little, Mittens was eager to contribute to the wolf pack that had adopted him, even if it was just to bite the prey's hind legs hard like before, risking breaking his ribs.
However, the new pack did not immediately let her join in the hunt.
The black ball took her to the allied wolf pack and served as the eagle that catches the chicks.
No matter how weak Gloves is, he is, after all, an adult wolf who is 30 months old.
Eagle catches chicken. If the 'eagle' is not strong enough, the game will not be exciting!
However, the other wolves in the pack were too strong, and the half-year-old cub was unable to fight back under their claws.
After choosing and choosing, gloves are definitely the most suitable choice for wolves!
Gloves never expected that the chasing and hunting skills that the wolf pack had no chance to practice in the past would be re-trained in the new wolf pack.
In just a few days, Gloves and the puppies made rapid progress.
The new wolf pack never mistreats its family members with food, and even when allied wolf packs are present, they will still give Gloves enough meat.
Queen Theresa was very far-sighted.
Although this female wolf has not made any hunting contributions for the time being, she has performed quite well in teaching her cubs to hunt.
So the wolves, up and down, allowed Mitten to get his share of the food.
After half a month of assessment, Gloves completed his graduation exam.
She killed a coyote on her own and qualified to participate in the hunt!
With severe winter approaching, every hunt by the wolf pack is crucial and no member is allowed to make mistakes.
Before the official hunt, Christine and the eldest princess, leading the latest lineup of wolves, planned to practice their claws with gloves.
Unexpectedly, the expedition got off to a bad start. As soon as they found their prey, they ran into a pack of wolves.
The two wolf packs passed each other, and the super male leader and the male wolf who had previously expelled the gloves recognized the 'former employee' they had driven out and were visibly stunned.
In their imagination, Mitten has poor hunting and social skills, and being expelled from the wolf pack will lead to his death.
The super male leader is high and mighty and doesn't care about the lives of the lower-level wolves.
Before today, he even forgot that there were low-level wolves wearing white gloves in the wolf pack.
I was caught off guard when I saw the gloves, as if the employee I had fired had won a big order for the new company.
The super male leader immediately rushed towards the wolf pack, intending to bite the gloves standing behind the princess.
In the past, whenever the leader pounced on him, Mittens would immediately tuck his tail between his legs and lie down in submission.
But not this time, she bravely raised her tail, dodged the leader's bite, and let out the most ferocious roar.
"Woooooo!"
You are no longer qualified to make me surrender!!!
Christine and the eldest princess, who originally planned to calm the situation down, turned around at the same time and stood in front of the gloves, roaring at the super male leader.
The super male leader relies on his own strength and never takes the female wolves seriously.
If things don't go his way, he will even bite his partner.
Now, facing two female wolves, he rarely attacked.
Yu Yiyun bared his teeth, and lay prone on the ground beside his mother's legs, secretly making up his mind: if the super-hero leader dared to attack, he would definitely tear a piece of flesh from him.
The account for biting mom last time has not been settled yet!
The other members of the Zhiheng Wolf Pack stayed quietly in the distance, with no intention of helping the Wude leader.
After a stalemate of several minutes, the superhero leader finally chose to retreat temporarily.
After confirming that the wolves had left, the gloves lost their strength, tucked in their ears and whimpered softly.
Christine and the eldest princess came over, and Xuan and Da Huang also rubbed against them to comfort the frightened family members.
In fact, Mittens was whimpering not because she was afraid, and she couldn't tell why.
During the subsequent hunting process, Gloves performed exceptionally bravely.
Even though its body size is not as big as wolves of the same age, its fighting spirit is just as strong.
Whether hunting with the alliance or with her own wolf pack, her performance was outstanding.
Gradually, Gloves even replaced the elderly Christine, standing beside the eldest princess and charging with her.
Several times, the eldest princess saw the gloves beside her, as if her sister had never left her.
The forest wetland is so large. Later, the small wolf pack encountered the horizontal wolf pack several times, and on the surface, they were in peace.
But Yu Yiyun knew that as prey became increasingly scarce, competition among wolves would only grow more intense.
In this situation, frequent encounters with neighboring wolf packs are not a good sign.
Besides, there is a huge gap in strength between the two wolf packs.
In recent times, prey often appeared on the edge of the wolf pack's territory. There was no guarantee that the super-dominant leader of the wolf pack would decide to expand his territory one day.
The black fur ball rolled over and secretly decided to be prepared.
Um!
Get ready when you wake up!
The cold weather has arrived.
When the calendar turned to late October, heavy snow covered Yellowstone Park, turning the whole world into pure white.
The Alliance wolf pack was very lucky; Blizzard had just acquired a moose, so they didn't have to go out hunting in the snow for the time being.
After filling her stomach, Yu Yiyun leaned close to Theresa's ear and made a coquettish sound.
After all, they have been together for two months, and the queen is no longer fooled by the boy's appearance.
He has been well nourished recently and his body shape has caught up with that of his nephew, and his fur is shiny and plump.
The queen used her mouth to nudge the wolf cub's round belly, flipped him to the ground, and rubbed him like a stuffed toy, asking the scheming cub what his next move was.
Yu Yiyun, who was treated as a stuffed toy, thought about the "conspiracy" she had planned. She lost all her temper and continued to make obedient "whimpers" to please the queen.
Seeing that the dog was being unusually well-behaved, Theresa had a premonition that the trouble the dog would cause her next would definitely not be easy.
Sure enough, one quiet night, the sleeping wolves were awakened by a dangerous howl.
Christine opened her eyes almost immediately.
She was all too familiar with that howl.
A few months ago, after the same frequency of howling sounded, she never saw her husband, second daughter, and two underage children again.
The old things happened again, and the wolf nature in Christine, who had always been gentle, quickly awakened.
This time, she can't lose any family members!
The eldest princess, who had also experienced the destruction, recalled that autumn night, the resolute back of her father Adam as he left, and the wolf's claws leaving deep marks on the snow.
Now, it's her turn to protect the family!
Ah Xuan and Da Huang jumped up and woke up their three younger brothers and sisters.
The last time there was a wolf fight, their father blocked the main force of the enemy wolf pack to buy time, and their two sisters tried their best to protect them, which gave them a glimmer of hope.
Now, Xuan and Huang must protect their younger siblings.
You must be like your elder sister and protect your younger brothers and sisters at all costs!
Yu Yiyun, who was sleeping, heard the wolf howls one after another. He shook his ears, got up lazily, and stretched his body.
“Ah!”
Trash wolf, he actually attacked me when I was sleeping, so insidious!
But it doesn’t matter, Yu Yiyun is more insidious than them.
The wolf pack's actions were slower than expected, but the clever wolf cub had made all the necessary preparations.
In the past few days, before the snow fell, Yu Yijun led the Paw Patrol to collect a lot of pine nut balls, chestnut shells, sharp stones, and hard tree branches, and buried them all on the road from the horizontal wolf pack to the point wolf pack.
The snow was very thick, and the wolves had to jump one step at a time to move forward. You can imagine how painful it was to step on that stuff.
This small move is not enough to stop the wolves, but it can buy more time for maneuvering.
Then--
The raven flapped its wings and flew into the air, uttering a high-pitched cry.
Soon, all the ravens that inhabited the forest wetlands began to sound the alarm.
Boss Crow has worked for a black-hearted boss for a long time and has also learned how to bribe others.
Use half an antelope to turn all nearby ravens into your own information transmission network.
Wolves have very sensitive hearing and can detect movements ten kilometers away.
While the wolf pack was still struggling with the 'speed bump', the howling of another wolf pack reached their ears.
Her Majesty the Queen, who had been well prepared, led her wolf pack through the snow and fought against the wolf pack together with the allied wolf pack as agreed.
There is a shortage of food in the territory, and the Zhixie wolf pack, which consists of 14 wolves, also needs to expand its territory.
In an instant, the offense and defense were reversed.
The wolf pack, who thought they had a sure win, were trapped in an area full of ambushes.
By the time they reacted, they were already being attacked from both sides by two wolf packs, just like Poland in 1939.
