morning.
At dawn, Chu Xiaoye woke up from the heat.
The scorching sun continued to bake the long-dried land mercilessly.
Chu Xiaoye had to wake up Little Curly Wei and Meimei and quickly went to hide in the shade under the tree.
Father Leng had already gotten into the dense bush, lying inside with his mouth open, motionless.
The lionesses also hid in the dense bushes.
During the day, if there are no accidents, they will lie like this and stop moving.
On the grassland in the distance, the ground began to crack.
The withered grass stretched its head, and the herbivores seemed to have disappeared, and no one could be seen anymore.
Even the air he breathed seemed to be burning, hot and hot.
Chu Xiaoye lay uncomfortable, got up and went into the bushes behind, deciding to go to the orchard to find some fruits to eat.
By the way, try out the newly evolved left claw.
Catherine looked at him secretly, hesitated for a moment, then immediately got up and followed him.
She likes to follow him and spy on him.
Even if there is no contact, just looking at him from a distance, she will be very happy.
As soon as Chu Xiaoye walked into the fruit forest, she saw a flowery tail and a patterned butt exposed from the dense grass.
Not far ahead, there was a bird with brilliant feathers, pecking at rotten fruits on the ground.
"The little female leopard is hunting birds?"
Thinking of the arrogant look of this little female leopard when she passed by here last night, Chu Xiaoye decided to teach her a lesson.
He lowered his body and lurked quietly.
As soon as he got close, he suddenly roared "Ouch" and rushed forward, directly pressing on her body, preparing to scare her!
But why did this little female leopard suddenly become so slim and petite
"Whoosh—"
The animal under him hurriedly twisted its body and got out. Then it jumped three meters high, bared its sharp teeth at him, and let out a sharp roar!
She has a pair of long ears, patterned fur, slender limbs, a slender and petite figure, and a face that is very similar to a little leopard!
It turned out to be a serval cat!
Chu Xiaoye was stunned for a moment and looked at her in astonishment.
The serval bared its sharp teeth and let out a threatening hiss. It looked at him with horror and ferocity on its face, and its body was trembling slightly.
And the little bird that was pecking at the fruit had been frightened and flew away.
"Ouch—"
Although there were mistakes first, the lion's face should not be lost.
Chu Xiaoye roared feigning ferocity and took a few steps forward.
Serval Cat did not hesitate, turned around and ran away, very fast, and instantly disappeared into the bushes in the distance.
The preying success rate of this animal can be said to be the highest among carnivores on the entire grassland, and can even reach 100%.
Of course, they only prey on small animals, such as mice, birds, and even insects.
They have agile movements and strong jumping ability, but are petite in size and look like domestic cats. Therefore, they have become the targets of many humans for hunting and trafficking.
They are almost on the verge of extinction.
Generally speaking, in a dry season like this, they would not appear in the shrubbery where large carnivore groups reside.
Thinking of the Komodo dragon last time, Chu Xiaoye had a vague premonition in her heart.
Could it be that the environment in the periphery or elsewhere has been seriously damaged
Indiscriminate deforestation by humans continues to encroach on the living space of animals, and various poaching and hunting have also brought many animals to the brink of extinction.
When will such behavior stop
As a member of this grassland, Chu Xiaoye had to worry about whether his future living environment would be irreversibly damaged.
At that time, no matter how powerful he was, where could he go
Human intelligence and strength are definitely not something that an animal can compete with.
Could it be that by then, these animals, who are struggling to survive on the grasslands, will be captured in zoos for human viewing
Or was he cruelly trained and domesticated
No!
A lion will never be a slave!
If that day comes, he will definitely run away far away, or fight them desperately!
Even if he dies, he will not be imprisoned!
"Ouch! Ouch!"
While he was thinking wildly, the little leopard suddenly ran out of the forest in front of him and roared at him anxiously.
The little leopard was lame on one leg and was obviously injured.
Chu Xiaoye hurried over and was about to check her injuries when the little leopard suddenly turned around and ran away lamely, still roaring anxiously, as if begging.
Chu Xiaoye's eyes narrowed and he immediately followed.
Soon, he heard the trembling roar of the female leopard, and her voice seemed to be full of panic.
At the same time, he smelled the scent of a lion.
Through a thicket.
The figure of the female leopard immediately appeared on the grass in front.
She huddled on the ground, baring her fangs, her body was covered in blood, her body was shaking violently, and she was obviously extremely frightened.
And beside her were three adult lionesses.
That was the lioness of the Seno pride.
They were all pregnant, but their fur was messy and they looked haggard. Their open mouths were drooling, and they had obviously not eaten for several days.
And this female leopard is what they want to prey on today!
With the leopard's speed and agility, and with so many trees nearby, it was absolutely impossible for these lionesses to bite her like this and surround her.
The only possibility is that this little leopard, who always loves to run around, was ambushed by the lionesses and bitten by them. Her mother rushed to the rescue without hesitation, and this scene happened. .
Chu Xiaoye turned her head and looked at the little leopard beside her. Seeing her trembling appearance, she was really pitiful.
Poor guy wants to fart on her!
However, these three lionesses are really unscrupulous!
This bush is the territory of their Leng father lion pride!
Wasn’t the lesson learned by the Komodo dragon last time enough
They blatantly crossed the border and robbed food resources that did not belong to their territory. This was a taboo and a violation of the rules!
"Ouch—"
Chu Xiaoye roared angrily and walked over.
He is a member of Father Leng's lion pride, and he cannot ignore this behavior of invading his own territory to snatch food resources!
Since this leopard mother and daughter live in their territory, they belong to their cold father's lion pride!
Even if you want to eat, it’s up to them!
But it’s no other lion’s turn!
The three lionesses that were besieging the female leopard immediately stopped biting and looked at him fiercely.
It turns out to be just a young lion!
They were immediately relieved.
Even if their Seno pride lacks one male lion, it is definitely not comparable to this cowardly lion!
Since this stupid young lion today is seeking death, they can just take the opportunity to bite him to death and make this lion group even weaker!
By then, this territory will completely belong to their Senor pride!
