Drying food is easy to say, but in fact, the process of finding food in the vast polar regions is far less easy than imagined.
Qiao Qixi was too hungry. For example, now, they have spent a long time walking through the coniferous forest to the last ice-covered sea.
Here, they met more and more polar bears, busy searching for food.
If the ice is not so thick, the polar bear can stand up and pat it down with a palm, then it can shoot an ice hole on the surface of the ice, and then grab the prey under the ice.
Even Otis is not easy to catch.
He shattered a sheet of ice, but the prey ran away, and he chased it all the way, until the prey swam into the deep sea without ice and drove away.
Qiao Qixi stretched his head, he couldn't control this white ice and turbulent sea.
Odis stared blankly in the direction where the prey was leaving, breathing a little, but he quickly adjusted his direction and continued to search for his prey.
The sea water here is about to be submerged, crisscrossing the ice surface, two hungry polar bears marching forward with wet limbs.
Qiao Qixi found that there was a black shadow on a piece of ice on the opposite side, it was a seal.
But it's a bit far.
If you swim over with all your energy and the other party ran away, it would be more than a loss.
Obviously Odis had the same idea as him, although he stopped to look at the seal on the opposite side, but did not take the next step.
Maybe the seals on the opposite side also found them, but because of the distance, the two can only look at each other in the air, each vomiting in their hearts.
Seal: Let’s run it for nothing if you dare to come here.
Polar bear:...
Generally, polar bears can do nothing but do not force them. If they find that they can’t do it, they will turn around. The Arctic is not the only seal.
That's right.
Qiao Qixi held the small yellow bucket very stubbornly, followed Odis's unrestrained footsteps, and continued to look for other prey on the ice.
As he walked, he found that the two of himself were centered on the seal, almost making a circle.
The position here is easier to get close to the seal, and it is not easy to alarm the other side.
Odis dived into the water, and Qiao Qixi asked the shore to wait obediently, without making a sound.
On the deep blue sea, a polar bear swam quietly to the opposite bank.
The seal basking in the sun did not notice that the danger was approaching quietly.
When hunting, the cunning and calm polar bear came ashore from the snowdrift behind him, and then leaned out more than half of his body.
The uneven sea has won the opportunity for the polar bear to hide himself, and he has enough patience to wait for the opportunity to move.
The little bear in the distance didn't dare to even move his ears at this critical moment.
He held his breath, like a sculptural bear, watching the battle on the opposite side from a distance.
Drying food or hungry, just look at the present.
If he could catch the heavy seal, Qiao Qixi vowed that he would eat two more greasy fats.
Yes, this is a male seal, almost twice the weight of a female seal.
If a polar bear wants to survive a year, it must eat at least 40 seals.
In the last short period of time before the glacier melted, if they could catch it, Odis and Joe Qixi would feel at ease.
Relying on the energy brought by this seal, they can not endure so hard until winter comes.
Odis had always been very patient when he was catching prey, and now it was far from the time he thought was right, but there was a small episode in the middle, he smelled the scent of other polar bears.
An uninvited guest, before he arrived, Odis ended his observation period ahead of schedule, and finally attacked the seal basking in the sun.
Hearing the movement, the other party immediately flicked his tail to the sea, and Odis followed it and dived into the sea together.
Of course the seals are more flexible when it comes to swimming. Otis is easy to lose opportunities in underwater battles.
But he still bit the seal, and as he shook his head, his whole body's hair formed a state of swing in the water.
Due to the resistance of the water, the strength of the polar bear underwater will be affected, so he desperately carries the prey to the shore.
At this time, his sturdy limbs played a big role. As long as the seal is bitten, it is difficult to swim past him.
On the shore, Qiao Qixi waited anxiously.
Odis was in the water and it was difficult to see what was going on under the water, which made him uneasy.
Suddenly, the uninvited guest who was predicted by Odis came in.
Its appearance disturbed the little polar bears on the shore, because at this moment, the distance between them may be less than 50 meters.
This is a rather dangerous distance.
So after a brief consideration, Qiao Qixi chose to jump into the sea and swim towards Otis.
Otis, who was hunting, came out of the water with a clatter, with a prey still in his mouth.
After the wet giant polar bear landed ashore, it immediately killed its prey!
Then he pressed it under the bear's paw, and then raised his head to look at the child.
However, the bank did not find a figure he was familiar with, instead saw a strange polar bear.
Odis was not surprised, he quickly glanced over the opponent, and then stared at the little polar bear swimming in the sea.
The yellow plastic bucket on Qiao Qixi's head is particularly eye-catching on the faint blue sea, like a beautiful landscape.
He swears that he has never swam so fast.
And the reason why he swims so fast is not because there is food in front of him, although he is really hungry.
The reason why he swims so fast is because if he doesn't swim faster, he will become the food of the strange polar bear.
Odis shook the seawater on his body, and after confirming that Joe Qixi could swim over by himself, he set his sights on the polar bear again.
At this time, his aura was extremely overbearing.
It seems to say to the invading polar bear from the air that there is already a master here, get away from here soon, and I won't bite you.
Animals with a keen sense of smell can distinguish friend from foe by smell, and at the same time, by smell, they can also distinguish the strength of each other.
The polar bear knew that Odis was young and strong, so he didn't dare to act rashly, but the smell of blood made the hungry polar bear coveted.
It did not leave, maybe it was waiting for a delicious meal abandoned by the other party.
But it didn't want to think that this male seal was enough for the Odis family to eat several meals.
In this food-poor season, it is impossible for Odis to leave this seal after just one meal.
As the saying goes, Wangshan ran to death, it is not an exaggeration to describe the current situation of Qiao Qixi.
Seeing Odis swimming so easily, he thought he could do it too.
It turned out he couldn't.
It's not that he can't keep going, it's just that he is tired.
Qiao Qixi raised his palms without any pressure, and put the small bucket on his head down, with the bottom of the bucket facing down. The hollow bucket was a natural buoyancy artifact to support his chin.
Although this seems insignificant for the weight of his bear, it can at least reduce the burden.
Anyway, it's better than wearing it on the head for nothing.
It is estimated that Odis would be so anxious to see such a stubborn child.
Can't wait to jump into the water and bring the little bear over.
To Qiao Qixi, he and Odis were slow to do things one by one, and the other was turbulent, and being able to get along with each other in peace was purely a merit of language barriers.
Otherwise, Odis would educate him every day and make a good house without peace.
On this side, Odis waited patiently for a while.
The little polar bear and his plastic bucket slowly came to the shore.
Qiao Qixi threw the bucket up first, then lifted his legs and climbed ashore.
Before going to the sea, he was a white and handsome bear. After going to the sea, he was a big white rag that could pant and looked very embarrassed.
Tired Joe Qixi, lying on the ice to rest, worried about his Odis, came over to sniff his nose.
The huge bear's paw that can slap a faint seal with one palm, press it on the bear with an inch.
Lying on the floating ice, Qiao Qixi couldn't help making a humming sound of enjoyment.
He knew that Odis was not massaging himself, after all, where did a pure polar bear know massage.
Seeing that he was so tired that he was doing health care or something like this, babbled, stopped, but after swimming, the sour muscles were pushed back and forth, and it was really comfortable.
As for Otis' true intentions, it might be to see if he died
In order not to worry the other party, Qiao Qixi got up and shook clean water.
In fact, it's not very tired.
It's just human inertia.
Before coming here, they had been on an empty stomach for a long time, and their bodies urgently needed food.
Odis waited until the bear was safe and sound. He and the bear ate together. As always, this giant polar bear always let the bear eat first, and later.
In this way, you can be alert to the surrounding environment to avoid special circumstances.
What's more, there is a polar bear standing on the other side of the bank, who is conspiring to swim and grab food at any time.
Qiao Qixi gobbled it up and had a full meal, and it was his turn to wait for Odis to eat.
The little bear who didn't know how to tune, changed his past mischievous behavior and became serious.
Because he was a little worried that the remaining seal meat would attract more polar bears to compete.
But fortunately, the place where they are located is like an island in the heart of a lake, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is a battleground for military strategists.
Even if ten polar bears besieged them, they could throw their prey out and let the ten bears fight in the den, and he and Odis took the opportunity to escape.
This polar bear on the ice and snow may have never dreamed that in his lifetime, he would encounter a polar bear who had studied the art of war by his grandson.
Qiao Qixi: I just watched it.
Odis eats fast and eats a lot, because he is really hungry, he can eat 100 catties of food in one go.
This is the polar bear in its peak state.
Moreover, Otis is far from being at his peak, and his ascent space is still considerable.
After eating enough food, the giant white bear licked the blood on its mouth and paws.
Polar bears have hard claws, but they may be damaged. If they are injured, they must be dealt with in time.
Every time Odis finished hunting, Qiao Qixi would look at his teeth, some conditions in his mouth, and his claws.
There have been such cases before.
The polar bear's paw was pierced and never taken out, so the entire bear paw was swollen and pus, unable to heal.
As a bear child with a lot of stinky problems, Qiao Qixi can check Otis' paws at will, because Otis is so used to tossing him.
Although the other party doesn't understand why the bear likes to toss his bear paws, he still patiently indulges.
But Odis doesn't like being checked. Whenever Qiao Qixi tries to break his mouth with his paw, he will avoid it even if he is not fierce.
For example, now, this little bear who is full and has nothing to do is energetic, and he is very interested in his paws and mouth.
This makes Odis want to hide.
Unfortunately, the area of this ice floe is limited, and he can't hide.
To be honest, teeth and claws are so important to the life of a polar bear. Not only do they have to be checked every time they are hunted, it is actually better to brush their teeth every day.
If possible, Qiao Qixi hopes that Odis will live longer, even if he is too old to hunt, but he still has his little friend who is a few years younger.
He will try to hunt and raise Odis, so he must protect his teeth.
There are no ready-made toothbrushes in the wild, but rubbing the hair on the bear's paw can also achieve the cleaning effect.
Sea water is a natural mouthwash and can also play a role in sterilization.
It only takes a few minutes a day to protect the health of the teeth and avoid the embarrassment of being unable to bite in old age.
The current situation is that as a thoughtful fake bear, Qiao Qixi insists on brushing his teeth every day.
After the convenience is completed, you will also rub your buttocks on the snow and roll in the snow every day, which is also indispensable.
Under the constant harassment of this energetic little bear, Odis simply lay on his side on the ice, picked up his head, and buried it in his stomach.
Qiao Qixi was helpless with him, and could only wait for the next opportunity.
