119 Reunion
◎The sand was soft, so he fell, but the lion father's rage was instantly ignited.◎
Seeing the cubs looking at the leopard, the lion father also came over to take a rare look.
Lion Dad rarely gossips like this, but he also knows Bangchui, and even when he looks at Bangchui, a very speechless expression appears on his face.
Sometimes the lion father would cover his eyes with his paws. At this time, Qiao Jinnian began to suspect that the lion father meant that he could no longer see.
Of course, that might just be an accidental action by the lion father, but it would always make Qiao Jinnian laugh.
The cub laughed happily, and the lion father opened his mouth wide, came over and licked the cub's cheek.
Qiao Jinnian took the opportunity to crawl into his father's arms and roll around in his mane. As a result, his laughter was so loud that it attracted the attention of Bangchui who was digging a hole.
Because he knew the father and daughter, Bangchui did not run away in fear. After all, he had watched the Two-legged Beasts for several months, and the Two-legged Beasts had not attacked him.
The security alarm was completely lifted, and Bangchui lowered his head and continued digging. In fact, leopards are not very good at digging holes, and their claws are not designed specifically for digging holes.
Bangchui doesn't know how to chase animals, hide, or drag prey home. He can only adopt this method of waiting for the warthog. Because he personally drove the warthog into the burrow, the warthog must be in the burrow now. He just needs to dig out the burrow and he will catch the warthog!
Well, that's the truth, but digging a hole takes a very long time...
It doesn’t matter, the mallet also has its advantages. He is very patient and continues to dig the hole with his head down.
Finally, he dug open the sturdy warthog cave!
So he put his entire leopard head in, bit the warthog's back, and bit the little warthog out.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp--" The little warthog howled madly, not understanding why his home was demolished when he was hiding so well?
Hahaha, Qiao Jinnian gave Bangchui a thumbs up to express his praise!
Bangchui didn't understand her gestures, but he was not afraid of her. He looked up to make sure she wouldn't snatch his food, then he bit the warthog and walked towards his home.
Generally, leopards will put their prey on a tree and eat it slowly. After all, there are animals everywhere on the grassland that like to steal their food, so it is safer in a tree.
No, it’s not always safe in trees. Other species are also good at climbing trees, such as the common enemy of leopards and lions - baboons.
Bangchui had a full meal and was lying on the top of a tree to sleep when he suddenly smelled a pleasant smell.
So he opened his hazy eyes and looked under the tree, and found that there was an antelope under the tree, eating grass leisurely.
Suddenly, Bangchui remembered the hunting method his mother had used before, which was to jump down from the top of the tree towards the antelope, so that he could crush the antelope to death with his weight.
His weight was obviously greater than his mother's, so Bangchui guessed that he would successfully crush the antelope to death.
Aiming at the direction of the antelope, the brave Bangchui took the risk and jumped directly from the top of the tree...
However, he obviously underestimated the vigilance of herbivores. Every herbivore on the grassland lives in fear of being hunted by carnivores since birth. How could they really be as relaxed as they seem?
Just as the club reached the ground, the antelope dodged quickly and easily escaped the fatal blow.
So, what about the mallet?
What should I do? The mallet hit the ground headfirst, almost making a big hole in the ground!
Although the leopard was lucky enough not to die from the fall, he had used 100% of his strength when he hit the ground with the club, and the angle of impact was aimed at killing the antelope. So, at this moment, he actually knocked himself unconscious...
Qiao Jinnian watched the entire scene and thought: It's over now. Could Bangchui be the first leopard in the entire grassland to kill itself by falling off its body?
As it turned out, she had underestimated the leopard's vitality. After a long time, Bangchui woke up on his own.
However, at this time, several vultures had gathered around him. They all thought that Bangchui had fallen to death and almost went up to eat his meat.
Fortunately, Bangchui woke up before they started attacking.
Sometimes, as long as an animal lies on the ground motionless for a long time, even if the prey is fine, the vulture will automatically think that the prey is dead and will bite it to death and eat it.
Qiao Jinnian was worried about Bangchui. In fact, she still hoped that Bangchui could survive on his own because he was quite funny.
No more watching, Qiao Jinnian is going to continue on her journey with the lion father.
After walking for who knows how many days, the father and daughter came to the desert area again. Although it was a desert area, there were no shortage of lakes here, all thanks to the underground rivers.
There are also many more herbivorous animals here, which makes life much happier than during the dry season.
It makes hunting easier for the lion father.
At this time, Qiao Jinnian thought of the four little ones. She didn't know how they were doing now and whether they were living well.
Returning to the valley again, Qiao Jinnian thought that they could stay in the valley for the next two days because the water there was quite delicious.
As a result, when they arrived at the valley, it had turned into an ocean...
Yes, there was a flash flood here, and the animals have left the valley. It no longer looks the same as it did during the dry season.
Okay, the father and daughter won’t go looking for the four little ones anymore, let’s continue on our way.
However, they passed by that area of rocks specifically to see how the lion group with three female lions was doing.
After all, this is the lion pride where my father was born, and Qiao Jinnian also wants to know the latest situation of the lion pride.
The father and daughter stayed in the familiar corner as before, looking down from above, an angle that would generally not be noticed.
Unexpectedly, the lion group really found the stray male lion. They had formed a new lion group and successfully gave birth to a litter of cubs. After counting, there were about 9 cubs.
The cubs are only a few months old and are at their most noisy.
The number of cubs in a lion group is the decisive factor in whether the group can grow and develop. The number of desert lion groups is already very small, and now there are new cubs born, a total of 9. It seems that the desert lion group will not decline in the future and will continue to develop well.
After seeing the latest situation, the lion father seemed to be very satisfied. After all, he was the one who left this lion group, and he did not want this lion group to disappear in the endless wilderness of time and leave nothing behind.
Seeing the little lions harassing their father the lion and vying to bite the tip of his tail, the father felt pain and turned around and slapped the little lions.
The little lions fell down instantly, screaming "Awooo-woo!"
The male lion's slap was so powerful that the female lions were not happy about it and came forward to check if their cubs were injured.
Many cubs are accidentally injured by male lions or larger sub-adults and eventually die. Coupled with natural disasters or invasions by other male lions, most cubs cannot survive to adulthood.
Even if they can survive to adulthood, female lions are at less risk, while a large proportion of male lions will die directly on the way to wandering.
Qiao Jinnian looked at the little lions and imagined that when his father was young, he might have lived next to that rock and would be yelled at by his father if he played with his father's tail. That's why he was annoyed with his cubs now.
As he was thinking, Qiao Jinnian thought that he hadn't played with his father's tail for a long time, so he reached out again and quickly grabbed his father's tail in his palm.
This should be a bit uncomfortable, but her father just gave her an expressionless face, which was an expression of helplessness, but also helplessness.
Seeing that he didn't roar, Qiao Jinnian started playing a game of chasing tails with his father.
The lion father also likes this game very much. He will keep shaking his tail to make it impossible for her to catch it. Qiao Jinnian does not use the method of prediction, but competes with him in reaction ability to see if she can catch her father's tail!
The father and daughter played for a long time, and the lion father kept his mouth wide open, looking very happy.
It was getting late, so after saying goodbye to the lion group here, the father and daughter continued to walk towards the north.
The desert area was finally not so scorching hot. We finally crossed the desert area and arrived at this sandy land.
The lion father carefully captured the scent of prey in the air, followed the smell, and found the giraffe's habitat.
The sand in front of him was very vast, which was the lion father's favorite hunting place. Moreover, there was no sound when stepping on the sand, which made it easier for the lion to hide its body and greatly increased its hunting success rate.
However, the lion father seemed to notice a familiar smell at the same time as he smelled the giraffe.
So, taking Qiao Jinnian with him, the lion father turned around the bushes and saw the four little lions.
Well, how should I put it, the four little ones have grown up completely. After all, it has been several months since they last parted.
The four little ones no longer look like little lions. The male's mane has grown out completely, and he has become a majestic adult lion.
Now, the four male lions have formed an alliance and cooperate in hunting. They seem to be living a good life because their hair is not messy and they have gained weight. They are no longer the skinny lions who don’t have enough food.
Upon noticing the appearance of other animals, the four little ones roared and informed their brothers that there were other lions here and they must be on guard.
Originally, the four little ones were lying on the sand and sleeping, with bushes around them providing them with shade.
However, when the four lions stood up at the same time and prepared to fight, they were shocked to find that the lion who taught them how to hunt and the strange two-legged beast were standing in front of them.
Then, the four handsome lions revealed their true forms in an instant, and trotted towards the father and daughter.
When they came in front of the father and daughter, the four little ones looked very happy, with their mouths wide open, and they were as servile as they could be.
They are just a league of wandering male lions. They have not established their own territory, nor have they formed a pride with female lions. They are still in the naive stage, between adulthood and adolescence, and are relatively obedient.
In appreciation of their timely understanding, Qiao Jinnian walked over and patted each of them on the head, expressing his gratitude for their good work.
The four little ones rushed over and wanted to play with her, but they ignored their own strength and threw her to the ground in the sand.
Qiao Jinnian: "..." Why is this child still so stupid?
The sand was soft, so he fell, but the lion father's anger was instantly ignited.
"Roar——" The lion father pounced on the silly little lion and bit it...
