Livestreaming the Hunt

There were several splashes of water in succession.

Dark red shadows, big and small, rushed out of the river like whack-a-mole.

It's a hippopotamus!

Everyone recognized it at a glance from the obvious features such as the thick head that looked like a pig, the dark red skin, and a pair of small eyes that glared.

[Fortunately, Lao Kui kept his mind! 】

[It is said that the hippopotamus bite force is amazing, I am afraid it is a big butt in one bite! 】

[But I always think hippos are so cute! 】

[The cute one, have you forgotten the primitive man who showed Lao Kui the way before? Didn’t he just have his feet bitten off by a hippo! 】

...

The big butt was also taken aback when he saw the hippopotamus popping up out of nowhere. No matter how good his nose was, he couldn't smell the underwater smell. This was why Old Hei was successfully attacked by the crocodile.

Wang Kui couldn't help but be thankful that he tried throwing things first.

This is a group of hippopotamuses consisting of three female hippopotamuses, two male hippopotamuses, and five young hippopotamuses. Among them, the leading "leader" has a body length of about 3 meters. Among hippopotamuses, it is already a very large individual , the weight may have exceeded 2 tons, and it can compete with the Indian rhino that Lao Kui met in Kaziranga!

in.

The leading male hippopotamus has been staring sideways at Wang Kui. Although everyone knows that this is the way herbivores look at people, its huge body, coupled with its small ears that are bigger than the bottle cap, and There is always an inexplicable sense of joy in eyes as small as fingernails.

"Chi! Chi!"

Wang Kui heard him keep exhaling through his nose, "It's angry, it's warning me to disturb their rest..."

Before he finished speaking.

A female hippopotamus opened her mouth wide behind.

Although water lovers have seen hippos in zoos and film and television works, and have many impressions in their minds, they still can't help being a little surprised when they see the most realistic wild hippos open their mouths up close.

Because the opening angle of this female hippopotamus' mouth is very exaggerated, almost reaching 90 degrees, especially its lower canine teeth, which are bent inward and are as thick as two or three fingers of an adult, like a broken steel bar, with abnormal incisions sharp.

"We have to back off..."

Wang Kui stretched out his hand, indicating that he was not a threat, and immediately led them back, especially Scarface.

Because in this team, he and the black bear are the largest, and Hippo obviously listed them as the key "objects" of care. After all, Scarface's hardware conditions and fierceness are there.

"If you encounter this kind of situation in the wild or in the zoo, you must be careful. Don't think that hippos are only good in water, not on land. In fact, hippos are good at diving but poor in swimming. The reason for escaping."

"On the contrary, the speed of hippos on land can sprint 100 meters in just 9 seconds, which is even more exaggerated than the current record of the fastest 100-meter ceiling for human beings. It is difficult for ordinary people to escape their attacks. In addition, they With a strong sense of territory and a fierce personality, not to mention humans, even crocodiles, or even the same kind, they dare to go up and fight!"

The more the audience listened to Lao Kui's explanation, the more excited they became.

[Since the hippopotamus is so powerful, who is more powerful than the rhinoceros or the elephant? 】

[I think the hippopotamus should be more fierce, right? 】

[Why do I feel that rhinos are more fierce? 】

[In terms of bite force, the crocodile should be the strongest, right? 】

Wang Kui retreated 30 meters from the river all the way. After seeing the female hippopotamus put her mouth down, he analyzed to the audience: "This question is actually easy to draw conclusions. As I said before, wild animals In the comparison of combat effectiveness between humans, body size can never be ignored, the so-called mass crushing kills a person, human fighting sports still need to divide the weight, let alone a beast without fighting skills."

"Even the strongest tiger ceiling, the Kaihuang 085 I mentioned before, can't beat the Asian elephant. There is no doubt that the first echelon of the herbivore ceiling is the elephant. As for the rhinoceros and the hippopotamus, whether it is Indian Rhinos are still African rhinos, and their average weight is far higher than that of hippopotamuses."

"According to the actual combat data given by many national parks in Africa, hippos and white rhinos have fought against each other many times. I got angry, and the hippo was hit by the big horn, and the latter would definitely be seriously injured, not to mention the bigger and more aggressive Indian rhino."

"So, in my heart, elephants are number one, rhinos are number two, and hippopotamuses are number three among land herbivores!"

Wang Kui's explanation is very graphic, so that although many water friends did not witness it with their own eyes, they still believe it.

Taking advantage of this wave of enthusiasm, some viewers also asked about the PK of crocodiles and hippos.

To this.

The answer given by Wang Kui is also very clear, that is, hippos are stronger than crocodiles.

"In Africa, hippos and Nile crocodiles are neighbors, and the size of the two is very different. Basically, hippos have been bullying Nile crocodiles, even to the point of beating you when they are upset, but adult Nile crocodiles will also hunt and kill small ones. hippo."

"Aside from actual cases, in terms of data, the bite force of hippopotamus is very strong. There is also a theoretical basis that the measured average can reach 1,800 pounds, which is close to 900 kilograms. The bite force of the largest crocodile, the crocodile, has been proved to be close to ten times that of humans. times, at about 1700 pounds, it is not as good as a hippopotamus, like the kind of mouth that has a bite force of several tons, it is either a fabrication, or an extreme individual."

There are all kinds of data about animals, articles written by online marketing accounts are everywhere.

But Wang Kui only picks the ones that are based on actual measurements, which is why he has always been able to convince the audience.

After the gossip, since there were hippos nearby, he took them around in a circle, avoiding the hippos, and prepared to swim down the river.

"Since there are hippos around here, almost no crocodiles would like to be around."

While they were drinking water, Wang Kui took off his shoes, knotted the laces, and hung them around his neck, preparing to cross the river directly. The fact that there were animals resting proved that the flow of the river was not fast and there was no danger.

then.

He took the lead directly and stepped into the river first.

Maybe it was because he had been in the sun all day, when he stepped on his bare feet, he felt a cool feeling, from the soles of his feet all the way to numbness in his scalp.

No wonder this hippo likes to soak in water.

The silt on the river bed is very soft. Fortunately, there are no sharp things, only some aquatic plants, such as branches and stones, which are either washed away by the current or corroded and become smooth.

As Wang Kui stepped deeper, his whole foot sank into the mud. When he reached the middle of the river, the water level had already reached the level of his chest. Leisurely passing by.

Interestingly, although the guy with Scarface started the slowest, he was the fastest swimmer.

[The black bear's swimming skills are so good? 】

[No wonder Lao Kui will bring a black bear. This guy should be regarded as an all-round beast. He can eat vegetarian food, eat meat, and is not picky about food. He also adapts to various terrains, going up to snow-capped mountains and down to rainforests. Can swim, hunting ability is not weak! 】

[So it seems that Lao Kui has a scarred face this time, it is difficult for Galiban to pass through a river like this! 】

[Unfortunately, black bears are too small to ride, and brown bears and polar bears cannot adapt to the tropical environment. 】

...

When the audience was struggling with Lao Kui's mount, he had already landed.

"Bears are not suitable as mounts. Their front paws are weaker than their hind paws. The shoulders cannot support the weight of humans for a long time, including cats. The spine and shoulders cannot bear it, so they are not suitable for carrying goods. , only animals with well-developed front shoulders like horses, cows, and deer are more suitable."

Wang Kui wiped his feet dry, put on his shoes again, said something, and continued to go north.

After working for a long time, it is already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and it will be dark in two hours, so there is not much time left for him.

Walked more than 500 meters.

The sun was about to set, and the whole jungle was dyed orange.

He had planned to end it here and set up a campsite and light a fire first, but unexpectedly, the big butt suddenly found a few balls of feces under a tree in the front left.

It was some small balls of black feces, some like the feces of cattle and sheep.

Wang Kui walked over and put his hand on it directly, "It's not warm anymore, but it's very wet, it should be just stretched not long ago..."

After saying this, he crushed the feces, and it turned out that the feces were very finely crushed like matcha powder.

【Wow! Doesn't this anchor feel disgusting? 】

[The novice is still asking if he is sick, but the veteran has already started to vomit! 】

[Don't ask, asking is professional! 】

[Old Kui said that the excrement of herbivores is just a little smelly, not as smelly as omnivores and carnivores! 】

He listened to the camera, "This is a typical herbivore feces. In fact, this thing is not disgusting, because it is all plant fibers, and the bacteria are much less than omnivorous feces. Many children in African tribes even have herbivorous feces. Whoever vomits far away, the water contained in it can also temporarily save your life!"

"We distinguish feces mainly from the aspects of shape, color, dryness and wetness, and the substances contained in them. Bovine feces are generally large, so we can first rule them out. Although ruminant animals have excellent digestion, they still suffer Leave some grass stalks, especially cattle and sheep that are not picky eaters and like to eat coarse materials."

"So the rest are deer and giraffes, keep looking!"

Having said this, he let the hounds smell the feces and continued to search the vicinity carefully.

It doesn't take a moment.

Lao Hei found traces of gnawing on the stems and leaves around the second bush more than ten meters away.

Wang Kui focused on the branches and stems, "Other animals in the deer family basically use their teeth to bite trees, but you have also seen the tongue of Jiapi. mouth, so we only need to see if there are many tooth marks on it, and we can draw a rough judgment!"

as expected.

There are really no tooth marks left on the branches like when Lao Kui tracked down those herbivores before.

"There is a high probability that it is Kapi!"

A look of eagerness began to flash in Wang Kui's eyes. Jiapi were rare and unobtainable. Although it was already evening, he decided to take the risk of chasing them.

Thus, the second round of search began.

With the feces and saliva on the bushes, the hounds were very aggressive, especially Lao Hei. In less than half a minute, the tracking route was clear.

After walking about 200 meters.

The audience found a second pile of feces through drone photography, and this time there were not only feces, but also some obvious footprints.

Wang Kui asked the big pigs to smell the footprints to see if there was any asphalt-like secretions. He took out his mobile phone and called up the photos of the footprints taken next to the puddles when he was tracking the first Jiapi.

Comparing the two pairs, except for the slight difference in size, the similarity rate is close to 90%!

To know.

Even if they belong to the same artiodactyla, the feet of different families and even different species are different. In this way, it can be basically concluded that this is the second one that Lao Kui judged the subconscious escape direction of Jiapi at that time! !

Wang Kui continued to touch the feces, "This one is even wetter than the last one. Looking at the footprints again, it is clear and obvious, and it was not long ago!"

"In the theory of hunter tracking, according to the freshness of the feces and the depth of the footprints, there are several combinations and divisions to deal with different situations. Clear footprints like this are generally the prey who stay here for a long time. For a long time, or left in the walking state."

"If it is in a running state, the footprints are generally not clear. This kind of footprints staying in place, combined with wet feces, indicates that the target has stayed here for a long time. It is a rest without a clear target, and generally will not go far. In this regard, hunters generally adopt a solution to set up traps or ambushes on the spot, and use bait or sound to attract the target to turn back and approach!"

"But just like mathematical formulas are not omnipotent and cannot be applied mechanically, so is the theory of hunters. Gapi is a shrewd and timid animal. To deal with this kind of animal, the calls of the same kind or herbivorous cubs will not attract it. If you don't pay attention, it will scare it away!"

then.

Wang Kui only took out the parachute and the machete, and temporarily set up a simple noose trap here. Instead of staying in ambush, he chose to continue chasing.

at dusk.

The sky gradually became darker and darker, and there were occasional roars of wild animals in the forest.

But he was not afraid, and still followed the hound.

Until I walked more than 50 meters.

Suddenly.

The big butt stopped.

"It seems to be close to the target point!"

Wang Kui swung the hunting bow from his back, replaced it with an anesthesia arrow, and pushed aside the grass in front of him. Under the bright red sunset, there was a black shadow in the shape of a wild horse standing in the forest, not knowing what to do next. What a stay.

Observing through a telescope, it can be confirmed from the texture of the thigh and the head that this is a hornless female Gapi!

"The emperor pays off those who have painstakingly worked hard!"

He was also very excited to find the second one so quickly.

But when it was thinking about how to approach the goal.

Boom!

Boom!

2 in 1, monthly pass????!
