Soon, a fluffy white rabbit appeared in Lin Qianxiang's sight.
The rabbit's ears are not very long, with a tuft of black fur on the tips of its white ears. Its whole body is snow-white, and its tail is relatively short. Its snow-white fur looks very warm.
Without a doubt, this is a snow hare.
Snowshoe hares are nocturnal animals, timid and easily startled, tolerant of cold but sensitive to heat, and fond of gnawing on wood.
To adapt to the harsh winter environment of snowy land, snow hares turn their fur white all the way to the roots.
In summer, its fur darkens, often turning reddish-brown, and it is a type of wild rabbit whose fur turns white in winter.
When Lin Qian saw the snow rabbit, he felt it looked familiar and was a little puzzled. He would definitely not let such a snow-white rabbit go if he saw it. Did he catch it before?
But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that there wasn't one.
There aren't many wild rabbits that are completely white; he remembers them all.
Well, you can only blame Lin Qian for being uneducated.
He didn't know that many of the wild rabbits he and Yongqi had caught before were snowshoe hares. However, their fur was reddish-brown and not as thick as it was in winter, so they were less appealing and it was normal that they weren't remembered.
The fur changed, but the body shape didn't change much, which is why Lin Qian thought the rabbit looked familiar.
The snow hare, which is supposed to be active at night, is inexplicably out in the daytime, and with this thick blizzard, it doesn't seem like the right time to go out.
Lin Qianke didn't care why the snow rabbit would be dispatched at this time; in his eyes, it was just a little snack.
Lin Qian subtly swept his tail at Qi Gong, who instantly understood and prepared to attack.
Lin Qian rushed out. There was no other way; the location wasn't suitable for an ambush, so they had to use Plan B.
The snow rabbit was startled by the sudden commotion and fled to the side as soon as it saw the little tiger rushing towards it.
Little did it know that the tiger cub chasing it was merely a ploy to confuse its judgment; the real killing move had already silently circled around to its front!
Courage and speed have a significant advantage in Plan B!
"Well--"
With its throat bitten, it couldn't even utter a complete scream; that broken, distorted sound was the snow rabbit's last chance at life.
Its bewildered eyes were wide open, clearly not expecting that another tiger had already come to its vicinity.
Lin Qian and Yongqi felt nothing after successfully hunting the rabbit. They skillfully skinned and ate the rabbit, finishing their snack in about three minutes.
Lin Qian looked at the blood-stained, snow-white rabbit pelt draped over the tree branch with a sense of regret. Since he hadn't found any prey yet, he couldn't take the rabbit pelt with him while he went hunting, so he could only leave it here for the time being.
I just hope he comes back with this thing in his mouth, otherwise we'll have to give up this beautiful fur in the end.
Whenever this happens, Lin Qian thinks of the chipmunk and envies its spatial abilities.
Of course, he also tried to get the chipmunk to carry other things, but unfortunately, the little guy can only stuff things into its mouth for now.
Therefore, objects larger than its mouth cannot be put in it at all. We can only hope that as its superpowers improve, it will be able to achieve the effect of "a universe within a sleeve", and then it can really be used as a suitcase.
Chipmunk: Squeak!
The mother tiger and the tigress were not surprised by the tactical coordination and results of the two tiger cubs; they had seen this scene many times before.
Seeing that the two brothers had finished eating, Tiger Mom growled, signaling them to continue on their way.
The sky gradually darkened, the sunlight was blocked, and the snowflakes that had stopped falling for a while started to fall again.
After a long journey, the tigers arrived at an area where they often hunted deer.
This area is a mountainous grassland landscape, rich in water and grass, relatively open, easy to run, and close to a river, making it a favorite activity area for deer.
Now that the sparse trees and leaves no longer provide shade, the forest appears even more open, but these days, not to mention the shadow of deer, even the calls of birds are rarely heard.
Just as Lin Qian finished observing, he saw the mother tiger and the tigress walk towards a snowdrift without hesitation.
"Splash splash".
The tiger's claws quickly dug through the snow, and soon, the shape of a red deer was revealed.
This...this is what happened? It froze to death last night?!
Lin Qian looked at the frozen deer with surprise and anticipation, and he seemed to understand something!
The tigress and the tiger mother dragged the deer a bit, and the whole deer came out of the snowdrift.
The mother tiger and the tigress are incredibly skilled at skinning deer. The two sisters can now skin them without damaging them, leaving not even a tooth hole in the deer hide.
This red deer is a female, weighing nearly 200 pounds, enough for a tiger family to have a full meal.
The frozen venison brought a different taste. Lin Qian narrowed his eyes. This kind of meat was less bloody than usual, but it was too frozen. It was refreshingly cold when swallowed.
After they had eaten their fill, the mother tiger and the tigress skillfully buried the remaining scraps and skeletons back into the snowdrift.
Lin Qian didn't know why. The venison had already been almost eaten by them, so why was it still being hidden?
This is naturally the tiger mother and her tigress's habit during the winter. There isn't much meat left, so it's not suitable to take it back right now.
But if they don't find any food next, they can come back and dig it out to eat or take it back with them.
With the ice and snow covering it, the meat can be preserved for a long time, and there is no need to worry about it spoiling in the short term.
Moreover, with such heavy snowfall in early winter, countless animals must have suffered that night.
It's not a good thing for herbivores to suffer too much loss in early winter. Don't be fooled by their effortless abundance of meat in the short term; they'll suffer later.
As winter deepens, herbivores become increasingly scarce, and with food running out, carnivores are forced to fight each other.
