Two days later.
Finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The vegetation all over the mountain is lush and still green, forming a sharp contrast with the withered yellow grassland.
Even the Kino brothers, who do not eat grass, felt excited when they saw this green scene and were full of hope for the future.
Where there are green grass and trees, there will naturally be prey.
The river meanders through the mountains and splits through the mountains, forming a beautiful river canyon.
The trees on both sides of the river are greener and taller, with lush branches and leaves. Walking among them, it feels like you have entered an ancient primeval forest.
Although there are many prey here, they are not easy to hunt.
Dense jungles, dense trees, and complex terrain provide them with various shelters.
For most carnivores, wide and flat grasslands are the best places to hunt.
Chu Xiaoye knew that the happy life of walking, eating, and throwing things like before would come to an end for the time being.
The forest is not suitable for lions to survive.
Therefore, although the environment here is much better than that of the grassland, Chu Xiaoye is not interested.
His target is still the other side of the mountain range.
Follow the river, enter the forest, and continue heading west.
Seeing so many green trees and grass by the river, the baby elephant was so excited that he swung his long trunk around and ate while walking.
This is the first time since he was born that he has seen so much rich food.
This is simply its paradise!
However, the little lioness Doya didn't think so.
She walked very hard on such a road, which took more effort than on a flat grassland.
And her mother, Dora, didn't like this place either.
The surrounding vegetation is lush, which is not only difficult to find prey, but also provides poor defense against enemy sneak attacks.
She needs to be more cautious and careful to observe the signs and sounds around her.
Moreover, it quickly became dark.
The night in the forest is much more eerie than on the grassland.
In this strange environment, no one knows what terrible beasts and killers are hidden in the dark and deep surroundings.
They could no longer continue their journey and had to find a place to rest and wait for dawn.
They like to hunt in the dark, and those invisible killers must also like it.
Chu Xiaoye jumped off the back of the little elephant and found an open place in a forest not far from the river.
He raised his head and looked at the tall trees.
He was used to sleeping in trees, and in this forest, trees were the safest.
But now, he can only look at the trees and sigh.
When will his claws grow
He firmly believed that he would grow his claws again, but he didn't know when.
Is it necessary to wait until his male hormone secretion and sexual maturity
That's too slow.
Since he was riding a baby elephant during the day, he was still full of energy at this time.
However, my stomach was also starting to get hungry.
He had to find something to eat.
As for the two stray male lions and the lioness and her daughter, he couldn't care less.
He is the future high-altitude king, not one of those poor lionesses who need to work hard to hunt in order to stay in the pride of lions!
He would not ask for trouble and support them!
Baby elephants were happily eating leaves and fruits all around.
Brother Kino was exhausted and lay down in the grass to rest.
The lioness and her daughter were also very tired and soon lay down in the grass and fell asleep.
Chu Xiaoye turned around and left, walking into the deep and dark forest.
It's much cooler here, but it has an eerie feeling.
The huge forest was silent.
The soft soles of his feet stepped on the soft grass without making any sound.
And those bright eyes can clearly see far away in the dark night.
However, there is no prey here.
Chu Xiaoye searched for a while and had no choice but to walk towards the river.
Some herbivores will take advantage of the darkness to go to the river to drink water.
He stopped under a big tree by the river, taking advantage of the dense bushes, and waited patiently.
Not long after, there was a sudden "swish" in the calm river, and a dark head popped out.
If you look closely, you will see that it is a crocodile!
The crocodile swam towards the shore quickly. After it climbed ashore, Chu Xiaoye was surprised to find that the crocodile was four to five meters long and was terrifyingly huge!
I saw that its whole body was dark and covered with stiff armor. The tail trailing behind it was thick and long. When it swung, it was powerful and very intimidating!
And in its slightly open mouth, there are two rows of fangs, sharp and cold, pointed and long, denser and thicker than ordinary crocodiles.
Chu Xiaoye had no doubt that if it bit her on the neck, the entire neck would be broken!
This was definitely not the ordinary crocodiles he had seen before!
This guy looks to be at least 500 kilograms, which is much bigger and stronger than an adult lion. Naturally, its fighting power cannot be underestimated!
Of course, the other party's flexibility is definitely not as good as his.
However, he didn't dare to mess with this thing casually. If he was accidentally bitten by the opponent, his small body would definitely be broken into two pieces.
However, what is it going to do when it comes ashore at night
Prey on the shore is not easy to catch for its size and crawling speed.
It stopped in the grass not far from the river.
Then it lay there and stopped moving.
It turns out its eggs were buried there and it was hatching them.
A thought came to Chu Xiaoye's mind, should she wait for it to leave and steal an egg to try
Monkeys steal peaches and lions steal eggs, both for survival. There is nothing wrong with that.
But obviously, the crocodile had no intention of leaving in a short period of time.
Since it is here, there should be no prey here.
Chu Xiaoye sighed and was about to leave when a figure suddenly jumped out of the grass behind the crocodile and jumped directly onto the crocodile's back!
The huge crocodile opened its mouth in a hurry, turned its head, and wanted to fight back!
However, the figure bit it on the neck, making it unable to move in an instant!
Chu Xiaoye looked closely, and suddenly her heart moved. It turned out to be a leopard!
The size of the leopard was not too big, almost twice the size of the crocodile. However, its teeth accurately bit the crocodile's life gate, causing it to Immediately lost the power to resist!
And the pounce it just made was as fast as lightning, leaving the crocodile with no time to react!
The difference in size and strength turned out to be useless at this moment!
Cats eat fish, it is an eternal truth!
The crocodile was very big and had a lot of meat. Chu Xiaoye felt that the leopard would definitely not be able to eat it all, so he decided to be shameless and get a piece of the pie.
This scene seems so similar.
And the leopard's back looked so familiar.
