Beast Studio

The audience was mesmerized.

Following Liu Wei's popular science, I imagined the scene of Komodo dragons hunting their prey, and I shuddered.

It's really a bit cruel.

On the screen, the Komodo dragon, which has always been afraid of the branches in Liu Wei's hands, suddenly moved its head. The camera recorded its face moving from far to near at a somewhat fast speed.

This time the audience was quite frightened.

"Ouch~, my mother, you scared me to death!"

"I'm so scared that I'm pissed!"

"This guy is a little naughty!"

"He actually killed a carbine!"

"Caught off guard, awesome!"

Liu Wei stared at the Komodo dragon and smiled: "Do you want to be so naughty?"

The tree branch in its hand danced a few times, then it turned around again, looking in another direction, raising its neck high and sticking out its tongue.

Liu Wei turned around to calm the audience, "Brothers, calm down, I'm right next to it, and I'm not nervous either!

We continued chatting and just mentioned its teeth and body strength. To sum up, the Komodo dragon’s mouth is a natural meat-cutting machine, and it doesn’t jam!”

“It’s a pity that I didn’t see the Komodo dragon hunting with my own eyes!”

“Awei, don’t they all say that Komodo dragons eat carrion?”

Liu Wei shook his head and said with a smile: "To ordinary people, the Komodo dragon likes to eat carrion like vultures, hyenas and other animals, but I just mentioned that its super high prey success rate is extremely rare in nature.

Let me tell you this, many excellent predators have the habit of devouring carrion, such as the crocodile we encountered before. The habit of eating carrion does not mean that it does not have excellent hunting skills. Think of it in the Agusan Swamp. You can feel it when you meet a crocodile.

The Komodo dragon is nature's top hunter, and its hunting skills were inherited from its ancestors who lived in Australia millions of years ago.

Students who like geography and history should be aware of the changes of the earth over the centuries.

Before the Ice Age, Australia was a gathering place for large creatures. In order to obtain food, the Komodo dragon had to evolve to a larger size and possess stronger hunting skills in order to survive in that environment of the jungle.

It seems that it has become the largest living lizard in the world.

However, at the Australian Institute of Zoology, scientists also discovered vague fossils that were larger than the Komodo dragon, more than 6 meters long!"

"Damn it, a six-meter-long lizard is so scary!"

"Australia is a paradise for animals to survive!"

"Learn about Mountain Fire!"

"Hey, what a pity, it lasted three months!"

"How many animals have lost their lives!"

"The funniest thing is that the officials proposed to hunt camels to protect water sources. I don't understand what they are thinking?"

Liu Wei: "Nature has extremely strong purification capabilities and never needs our human intervention!"

“Big thumbs up!”

"Yes, this is a very good statement!"

"I'm really worried about the fate of mankind!"

Liu Wei smiled and said: "Brothers, cherish the present and live a good life."

After speaking, Liu Wei looked at the giant lizard in front of him.

It had remained motionless for some time.

It seemed that the intimidation against Liu Wei was over. His anger subsided and he naturally became quiet.

The other monitor lizard that it had just fought with had already left this exposed place and was probably looking for a place to cool off.

Liu Wei picked up the tree branch and waved it in front of the expressionless monitor lizard's eyes. The monitor lizard twisted a little, crawled a few steps to the side, and turned its head to look at Liu Wei.

"Hey, don't you get hot when you stay under the bright sun?" Liu Wei asked the Komodo dragon.

The monitor lizard stuck out its tongue.

"Okay, you're awesome, I'm leaving!"

Liu Wei pretended to turn around and took a few steps. When he looked back, the Komodo dragon was still where it was and did not take the opportunity to catch up.

"Friend, I'm going to have heatstroke soon. Go find a cool place to take a nap!" Liu Wei waved.

After watching Liu Wei walk away, the Komodo dragon slowly bent its body and crawled away lazily with its shoulders raised and lowered.

Liu Wei looked back and said, "Brothers, it has gone. I know many viewers haven't seen enough. Don't worry. Since you can encounter two hot-tempered monitor lizards under the conditions of sunlight exposure, then where there is water, There are Komodo dragons everywhere, and there may be more of them.

If we are lucky, we may witness the Komodo dragon hunting scene. I have just told you so many professional things, and I need to shoot some on-the-spot material for you to digest.

Let’s continue on our way to find the source of water in this low-lying bush!”

"A conscientious anchor always thinks about the audience's viewing experience!"

"You deserve to be angry!"

"To be honest, Ah Wei is the most dedicated outdoor anchor on the entire network!"

"The key is Awei's live broadcast content, other anchors can't come either!"

"That's true, hahaha!"

Liu Wei observes the moisture of the soil on the ground to determine the source of water.

After walking forward for more than ten minutes, some black mud pits appeared in front of us.

He stopped to look at it for a few times and said, "Brothers, what do you think of when you see this puddle?"

"Niu rolling pond!"

The barrage is consistent.

The first thing that comes to the mind of the audience is a cow rolling through a puddle.

The evidence is obvious, including the cow's hoof prints next to the puddle and the filthy black muddy water in the puddle.

Liu Wei nodded, "In hot weather, buffaloes like to soak in such puddles. They roll in them and turn up the humus deposited in the puddles, so that the water in the puddles turns into black water. , and also exudes a foul smell.

But for the buffalo, the black muddy water covering its body can prevent mosquito bites.

However, if you encounter a Komodo dragon, it will be a different outcome.

Everyone should have a basic concept in their minds now. After being bitten by a Komodo dragon, it will bleed profusely. If the buffalo soaks the wound in such a mud puddle, you can imagine that the wound infection will be serious!"

"It looks disgusting, there are definitely a lot of bacteria in it!"

"Anchor, you mean the Komodo dragon will still hunt buffalo?"

"A buffalo weighs over a thousand kilograms. Even lions and tigers have to struggle. Can a Komodo dragon do it? Its bite force is so weak!"

Although Liu Wei has popularized the working principle of the Komodo dragon's mouth in detail, the audience still cannot regard large mammals such as buffalo as the prey of the Komodo dragon.

Even crocodiles will not easily provoke adult bison, and Komodo dragons cannot compare with crocodiles in terms of bite force and size. The audience questioned Liu Wei's words.

And it is a question that seems to have a theoretical basis.

Liu Wei looked at the questioning barrage and smiled. He knew that doubts would definitely arise in the hearts of the audience, and analyzed, "Brothers, so far, we have a total of two pieces of information.

First, there are Komodo dragons active here. According to its living habits, it likes to be active near water sources during the dry season.

Second, there were buffaloes in the waterhole in front of us.

Putting the two points together, I would make a bold guess that Komodo dragons will hunt buffalo for food. Is this more objective? "
