The two little groundhogs that just left were clearly out of number; they might have been eaten by foxes.
"Egg, Green, the groundhogs carry germs, so we can't get too close to them."
"I understand, Mom."
"Qingqing knows too."
Lu Fangfang patted the two children's heads, then rode her little donkey and turned east.
Along the way, she looked around and found that there were pika burrows everywhere on the grassland, and many pikas were munching on the tender grass.
Beside the pika, there were also a few small birds, which looked somewhat like sparrows, pawing at the ground in the meadow, looking for food.
"Egg and Green, the bird next to the pika is called a snow sparrow."
"Mom, there aren't any trees around here, so where do they live?"
Qingqing looked at them curiously.
She was good friends with the chubby chicks at the breeding farm and knew that birds had to build their nests in trees.
"Their nests can't be in trees. You see, they get along well with pikas, so their nests are in the pikas' burrows, and some even build their nests in caves in the rock walls."
Lu Fangfang stopped the little wild donkey for a moment and continued explaining to the children.
"Mommy, Mommy, why are they so friendly with the pikas?"
Just as Lu Fangfang was about to explain, she saw a Pallas's cat hiding in the grass in the distance.
She recognized the Pallas's cat; it was none other than Cat Tyrant.
She quickly told the two children to look in that direction.
The cat tyrant crouched low and kept moving forward, trying to hunt the pikas in front of him.
It took a few more steps, and suddenly the nearby snowbirds took flight.
The pika, which was munching on tender grass, turned around and fled into its burrow without hesitation.
"Meow~"
The cat tyrant wagged its tail and meowed angrily.
It glanced at the two-legged creature ahead, then turned and left.
"Egg, now you know why the snow sparrow is on good terms with the pikas, right?"
Lu Fangfang looked down at her son with a smile.
Hmm...
Egg seemed to understand something. "Mom, the snow sparrows can spot the cats in advance. Once they fly away, the pikas know the cats are coming, and that's how they get along."
"My son is so smart."
Lu Fangfang patted the little wild donkey and followed Cat Overlord for a while.
Compared to the fierceness of the cat king when I first met him, the cat king is now much more mature and looks much more indifferent, not even paying attention to the two-legged beast on the donkey.
"Little wild donkey, let's go take a look to the north."
"Giddy up!"
As soon as she reached the area of the pile of rocks, Lu Fangfang discovered a Tibetan fox and a Pallas's cat fighting.
They are the offspring of a female Tibetan fox and a feline overlord.
"Awoo~"
"Meow~"
The two fought for a while, neither gaining an advantage, and then they dispersed.
Lu Fangfang patted the little wild donkey forward and followed the Pallas's rabbit to a large rock.
"Huh?"
She looked closely and discovered the faint shadows of several Pallas's cats deep beneath the large rock.
Dandan's eyesight is better than Lu Fangfang's.
He pointed to the bottom of the big rock and said excitedly, "Mommy, there's a kitten! There's a kitten!"
"Mom, can we take one home and raise it?"
Egg turned around and looked at its mother expectantly.
"Egg, the Pallas's cat has a mother too. How can you bear to take it away from its mother?"
Egg clenched its fingers, looking very conflicted.
"Then...then I don't want it. I want the kitten to stay with its mother."
"Egg is great."
Lu Fangfang lowered her head and kissed her son, then patted the little wild donkey back to the pasture in front of the farm.
At this point, the little yellow dog and the tuft of hair had made up.
In the sunset, the two little guys groomed each other, looking very affectionate.
Lu Fangfang looked at the two of them and smiled.
In a few more days, perhaps a baby Tibetan fox will be born.
She turned to look at the little wild donkey and couldn't resist patting its head.
"Little wild donkey, look at that little yellow dog, he's already brought his wife home. When are you going to bring a wild donkey home?"
"Oh...ah..."
The little wild donkey snorted and lowered its head toward her cloth bag.
"You big glutton, you ate all the candy in my pocket. Alright, let's go home and make snow chicken soup."
Lu Fangfang called out to Dandan and Qingqing, and led the little wild donkey home.
