90 Black Panther
◎So she only needed to look carefully to quickly distinguish from the shadows that there stood a black panther that had successfully hidden in the shadows!◎
This sub-adult white lion fully demonstrated the most standard posture of submission of a lion.
The little lion's snow-white fur is rare to begin with, and its ice-blue eyes are so beautiful that they can melt people's hearts. Now, the little lion opened its big blue eyes, showing its belly, with the words "I'm very pettable, come and pet me" written all over its face.
This was the first time Qiao Jinnian had seen such a beautiful lion. It was even more beautiful than the white lion king she had seen on TV.
She remembered seeing a white lion king in the wild. However, because the white lion's hair was too conspicuous, it was difficult for it to catch prey and was also ostracized by its own kind. Therefore, it was often injured and had many black scars on its body.
Also, because the lion king didn't like to take a bath, his hair looked a little dirty, so we couldn't take a closer look.
But the fur of this sub-adult cat in front of me is particularly clean. I don’t know if it’s because it just took a bath, it’s soft and cute.
Although Qiao Jinnian really wanted to go up and rub him, he did not act rashly. After all, the lion father in front of him wanted to deal with the two lions who dared to wander into the territory of his own lion group.
This is a question of territorial sovereignty and the dignity of the territorial lions. Some of the more ferocious territorial lions will even brutally bite stray lions to death, and some will even eat them directly.
However, the lion father is a kind lion, this is what Qiao Jinnian knows about his father.
Again, if the two lions in front of him were invading stray lions, Ryan would fight to protect his territory, but the two lions in front of him were obviously not invading, and they certainly did not deliberately break into their territory.
In this case, Ryan actually just needs to expel them.
However, this sub-adult knelt so quickly that Ryan was caught off guard.
You say he's weak, but he's just a minor, shouldn't he kneel down? So there's nothing wrong with what he did, it's the right way to save your life.
White lions definitely have a hard time surviving. When they want to hunt, herbivores can easily see them, so hunting them is particularly difficult.
Therefore, if white lions want to survive, they need to work harder than ordinary lions. That’s why white lions often have good fighting capabilities, which are all because of their training.
On the contrary, the old lion, although also afraid of Ryan, did not slide to his knees as quickly as the sub-adult lion, but he also lowered his head and lay in front of Ryan to show his submission.
Because they had mistakenly entered the territory of another lion group and were not in the right, quickly surrendering was the easiest way to avoid war.
Looking at the old man and the young boy in front of him, Ryan originally wanted to show mercy to the old lion. After seeing how hard and diligently he fought to survive that day, he had no temper towards him at all now.
But the lion's territory cannot be violated, so Ryan stood up and roared at the old man and the young man: "Roar--"
This was the roar of a lion that expelled them. Obviously, there was no malicious intent, it was just to make them leave quickly.
After being driven out by the territorial lion, the old man and the young boy had nothing to say. This was already the best outcome, so they headed south again in the direction they came from.
Looking at the receding figure, Qiao Jinnian couldn't figure out what the relationship between the white lion and the old lion was. Why did he only see the old lion hunting that day and not the white lion?
This white lion is no more than one year old, and is quite large. It doesn't look like the old lion, so they are definitely not father and son.
I don’t know what the relationship between the two is. Qiao Jinnian just feels sorry that he didn’t touch the white lion.
After a while, Reiner came back with his prey, which turned out to be a leopard...
No, isn't it the rainy season now? Why would Reiner go hunting leopards?
Qiao Jinnian was a little depressed. Although she knew that it was normal for a lion to eat a leopard, she had never seen Ryan eat strange things. He usually ate herbivores.
However, Ryan did not say much about Reiner capturing a leopard. Instead, he started sharing food with his son.
Ryan wanted to leave a leg for Qiao Jinnian, but she waved her hands to refuse.
Fortunately, there were some fruits and dried meat in Qiao Jinnian's woven bag, so there was no need to grill meat for the time being.
Seeing that the cub still had food, Ryan didn't force it.
The two lions, each weighing over 300 pounds, had a huge appetite and quickly finished eating the leopard.
After eating, everyone rested for a while and then continued to walk west to complete their patrol mission.
This time, they passed by the bushes and encountered another group of baboons on the road.
The group of baboons screamed "wa wah wah" and ran madly into the bushes, not knowing what was happening.
Qiao Jinnian thought this was Da Zhuang's tribe, after all, this place was not far from Da Zhuang's tribe.
However, when she didn't see Da Zhuang, Qiao Jinnian realized that they were not from Da Zhuang's tribe.
As I was walking forward, suddenly a leopard rushed over from the side and pounced on one of the baboons at lightning speed, biting it to death.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp--" The baboons who had already run far away found that their companion had been bitten to death by the leopard. They all turned around and gathered together again, looking for the leopard for an explanation.
Baboons are a highly social group. How could they allow one of their members to be eaten by a leopard for no apparent reason? Even if they have to snatch the body of the member back, they will do it!
As a result, the number of baboons here increased, and now exceeded 40. These dozens of baboons roared loudly and were about to come over to surround the leopard.
Baboons are numerous and powerful, and are a notoriously ferocious species. They were about to tear the leopard's hand off.
The leopard had no choice but to put down the baboon corpse in its mouth, jumped onto a tree, and after a few jumps from the top of the tree, it came to the entrance of the bushes, then jumped from the tall tree to the ground and escaped.
When the baboons saw the leopard run away, they went back to look at the corpses of their own kind on the ground and were extremely angry. They had remembered the grudge. The next time they met the leopard, they might keep staring at her, and even wait for her to give birth to cubs, and then they would definitely steal her cubs.
The baboons carried the corpses of their own kind and continued to run forward. It must be that the leader was leading the tribe to find food.
After watching the love-hate drama between the baboon and the leopard, Qiao Jinnian realized that it had nothing to do with her own lion group, so she continued riding on her father's back and walked forward.
But as soon as they came out of the bushes, they saw the leopard again.
Ryan didn't bother to pay attention to the leopard. After all, leopards were not picky eaters and had a wide range of diets, eating everything. There was no major competition between them and the lion group.
But Ryan wanted to follow the leopard to see what was happening in the bushes, so that he could understand the distribution of species within his territory.
No wonder Reiner didn't go looking for herbivores. There were quite a few herbivores along the way, but there were many leopards.
After just a few steps in the dense forest, they saw several leopards, not sure whether they were male or female, climbing trees and even living in trees.
Qiao Jinnian no longer recognized the leopard that he had just seen fighting with the baboon. After all, they all looked similar.
However, when she looked up and observed the leopards, she always felt that something was looking at her. Relying on her sixth sense, she quickly looked in the direction of a big tree.
But she saw nothing. The trees over there were lush and leafy, and one tree connected to another, forming a large area of shadow.
Qiao Jinnian is a human being, not a predator. She can see more colors than ordinary predators, so she only needs to look carefully to quickly distinguish from the shadows that there is a black panther standing there that has successfully hidden in the shadows!
Oh my God, Qiao Jinnian was dumbfounded. It was definitely a shiny black panther!
No wonder he hid in the shadows. If she wasn't a human, just an ordinary prey, the perfectly invisible black panther wouldn't be able to see her at all!
The black panther was lying in ambush in the shadows, looking around for prey, but unexpectedly, he was staring into the eyes of a strange two-legged beast.
The biped even rides on a giant lion.
Black Panther: “…” No, a lion can be ridden?
The black panther's eyes are green, like the color of emerald, so clear and beautiful, and it looks especially like a night elf.
Ryan is an animal from the grassland and generally does not appear in dense forests, but the leopard is not as strong as him in combat, so he just came to see what the situation is here.
Knowing that this was a dense forest where leopards gathered, Ryan prepared to return to the arid grassland. The environment here was not suitable for lions to run long distances, nor was it conducive to their hunting.
When Qiao Jinnian was leaving with her father, she looked back as if she had sensed something, and saw the black panther actually walking out from the shadows. He was really black all over, so beautiful.
Unexpectedly, when she came to the southern desert this time, she not only saw a white lion cub, but also a black leopard.
Both of these colors are very rare in this grassland.
Finally out of the dense forest, Ryan felt much more comfortable. This was where he belonged.
After patrolling their territory, the man and two lions continued to head back home.
They were almost home, and Qiao Jinnian was determined to bring a living creature back. The three lioness mothers had been too busy taking care of the sub-adults recently, so she had to follow her father around.
Feeling uneasy, Qiao Jinnian hurriedly ran after an antelope. Since he didn't bring a cloak this time, it was difficult to lure the animal over, so he had to use his bow and spear to hunt an antelope.
After some archery practice and a long journey, Qiao Jinnian finally walked back with the antelope tied to his body. There was no other way, as this was for sub-adults to practice hunting, and he couldn't just kill and eat it directly.
Seeing his cub riding his prey back home again, the lion father was speechless. If his facial expressions continued to develop, they would almost evolve into human expressions...
Qiao Jinnian stuck out his tongue, took the hemp rope as a whip, and directed the antelope to walk back by itself.
The sub-adults and lionesses came out to greet the two male lions, and also saw that this strange sister (aunt) brought them living things again.
I don’t know if it’s due to practice, but in this rainy season, this group of half-grown boys have made rapid progress and learned to work in a team. The leaders are the two sub-adults who took the lead in chasing them back in the beginning.
Some Leos show excellent leadership skills from a young age, which is innate.
The children are almost two years old and have grown a lot taller, but the dry season is approaching...
