Chapter 21 Appetite Recovery



The sharp tiger teeth completely tore open the wild boar's belly, and its internal organs slowly flowed out along with the blood.

Tiger Mom tore off a piece of liver and placed it in front of Courage.

Tiger Mom already had a general idea of ​​her youngest son's gluttonous nature; if his internal organs weren't separated, this little rascal could stick his whole head inside.

Then she'll be covered in blood, and I'll have to lick it off for her, which will waste time.

In the past, the tiger mother would never have thought of these things; licking and cleaning her cubs is an animal's instinct.

But now, Tiger Mom's usually slow-thinking mind has started to work, and she has actually come up with the concept of "delay".

Upon seeing the fresh meat, Yongqi wagged its tail and happily rushed forward to feast.

Tiger Mom tore off a piece of her heart and placed it in front of Lin Qian.

Clearly, Tiger Mom has gradually made this behavior a habit; her eldest son is strong and intelligent, and she is happy to give him special tutoring.

Smelling the delicious aroma of meat, Lin Qian's thoughts were immediately drawn to the food, and he lowered his head to eat with pleasure.

Wild boar offal tastes pretty good, just not as good as deer or bear offal.

After finishing the pig's heart, Lin Qian stopped eating the internal organs. He preferred eating pure meat to the messy offal.

Wild boar meat tastes just as good as venison or bear meat. In fact, the unique pungent smell of male wild boars gives the meat a distinctive flavor. It seems we should pay more attention to this type of prey in the future.

As Lin Qian ate the meat, he couldn't help but plan his future menu in his mind.

He has already eaten brown bear, deer, and wild boar, so he obviously doesn't have a deep understanding of tigers' diet. After eating more of them in the future, he probably won't be so interested in wild boar meat anymore.

Tigers are highly opportunistic predators; to put it bluntly, they are not picky eaters and will eat whatever they come across.

In this vast primeval forest, there are very few animals that tigers cannot eat.

However, tigers don't have many favorite prey. They usually prey on medium to large mammals, including various wild deer, wild sheep, wild cattle, wild boar, red deer, sambar deer, roe deer, musk deer, and other ungulates.

The types of foods that Lin Qian has tried so far are all considered common among them.

Yes, he's a tiger who's never seen the world!

A nearly 160-kilogram adult wild boar was quickly devoured by the mother and her three cubs, with almost a third of it consumed (without removing bones).

The wild boar's internal organs were eaten first, and its limbs were gnawed away.

This time, Lin Qian observed carefully and found that Tiger Mom ate about 20 kilograms of pork, while he and Yongqi each ate less than 1 kilogram.

It seems that his and Yongqi's appetites have almost returned to normal, and their appetites have decreased compared to the previous few days.

A typical adult Siberian tiger eats only one meal a day, consuming about 12 kilograms of meat per meal. Nursing cubs, on the other hand, eat very little.

Seeing her significantly increased appetite, the tiger mother paused for a moment, but didn't think anything was wrong. Strength and physical growth are inseparable from food; this is common knowledge among wild beasts.

It could feel that its weight and strength had increased recently. The tiger mom was very perceptive of its own changes, which was its means of survival.

Compared to the occasional hunger pangs of the past few days, its appetite today was quite normal, and it no longer felt hungry again so quickly after eating, which relieved it somewhat.

If it were hungry like that every day, it probably wouldn't have enough time to hunt.

Tiger Mom wasn't too bothered by the changes in her body and the impact of her increased appetite; she was just a little worried.

Being physically stronger makes hunting easier than before, but it also increases the demand for prey.

Its appetite has increased, and it has two cubs to raise. As the cubs grow, its hunting burden will only become heavier and heavier, and it will not be any easier than before.

Now that her appetite has returned to normal and she no longer feels hungry often, the little bit of worry in Tiger Mom's heart has dissipated.

After eating her fill, Tiger Mom didn't stop; she picked up the remaining wild boar meat and immediately left.

The fresh blood and bits of meat on this ground will soon attract other predators. If you don't want your prey to be stolen, you'd better leave quickly.

Putting aside everything else, the mess of severed intestines and entrails scattered all over the ground will soon attract "cleaners" like crows.

The two tiger cubs, having eaten their fill, trotted along after their mother.

The mother and her two children walked lightly and happily.

Today was a very fruitful day.

As night fell, the tiger mother, having had a successful hunt during the day, naturally wouldn't go out hunting that night. If nothing unexpected happened, she could enjoy a leisurely and carefree life for the next two days.

After drinking her bedtime milk, Lin Qian, who was lying in the grass nest, quickly fell asleep.

As the moon rises and sets, the forest silently repeats its unchanging jungle night, and nothing is said throughout the night.

As the sun rose, Lin Qian suddenly opened her eyes. As soon as she was awake, she couldn't wait to rush into her mother's arms to drink milk.

That's right, he's still breastfeeding.

The adorable little tiger cub is hungry!

After finishing its milk, Yongqi cried out for meat. Its little belly, full of milk, was round and bulging, but Tiger Mom didn't even glance at it.

Courage suddenly felt wronged and threw herself on her brother, howling as if she were whining and complaining.

Lin Qian had no choice but to take her simple-minded younger brother to practice climbing trees.

Having survived a brush with death and discovered the energy contained in the fruit, Lin Qian was certain that the world had undergone a transformation, and therefore the dangers in the jungle were definitely not to be ignored.

Their daily training not only cannot be neglected, but must be continuously strengthened!

The mother tiger showed no interest in 'training' her two cubs. Her massive body lay quietly on the grass, and she soon dozed off.

Tigers are mostly nocturnal, so they spend most of their daytime resting and sleeping, and the tiger mother naturally follows this habit as well.

After taking a nap, Tiger Mom, feeling hungry at noon, dragged out some wild boar meat.

Courage, with its keen sense of smell, immediately leaped down from the tree and charged over, howling.

Lin Qian stood on the tree trunk, raising her paw to cover her face, unable to bear watching her younger brother's incompetent behavior.

Little did he know that he himself had already licked his lips with his little tongue.

The still relatively fresh wild boar meat was once again shared among the mother and her two cubs. Today, their appetite had decreased again but recovered somewhat.

Lin Qianxiang thought it was because he had already eaten a large meal yesterday.

She's been eating for two consecutive days, so it seems Tiger Mom is burning even more calories than before.

He and Yongqi, on the other hand, could only eat a few bites before they couldn't eat anymore. The two of them ate less than two pounds of meat together today.

After observing and comparing, Lin Qian found that his and Yongqi's food intake had basically returned to normal levels, and their bodies had not shown any significant changes.

Strength, weight, and speed have not increased significantly after these few days of training, remaining at the previous level.

Indeed, how could one make rapid progress with normal eating and exercise? It really does require "external force"!

But external forces are beyond his control. For now, he can only do his best to strengthen his training and make himself and his courage stronger.
