Chapter 875: Migrating Zebras
Since the spotted hyena is called the second brother of Africa, if you want to survive in this small territory of the savannah, you will naturally have to deal with it many times in the future.
This is just the first wave, and there will definitely be many more to come.
"This time there are only eight of them. A pot of boiling water can easily drive them away. But next time, there may be twenty or even forty of them. That would be dangerous. We must not be careless."
After resting for a while, Bifang stood up, put out the spreading wall of fire with water, and cleaned up the mess alone.
In order to block the hyenas' attack as much as possible, Bifang kicked the flames apart to form a wall of fire, expanding the range of the flames.
Although in order to avoid causing grassland fires, Bifang would clean up the surroundings before each fire, the spread of the flames has obviously exceeded the safe range and must be dealt with as soon as possible.
[It's okay. I believe that no matter how many there are, they will be a small blow to me.]
[Harley: Lao Fang and I are so strong, killing people all over the grassland]
[You are responsible for the random killing, I am responsible for the gaga]
[Fang Shen: That year, I put my hands in my pockets and didn’t know what an opponent was.]
【Harley: I was eighteen that year, standing like a minion. 】
[Child, you should respect the fastest hunter on the grassland]
After cleaning up the last spreading sparks and expanding the safe zone, Bifang put all the firewood into the final expansion pit, covered himself with furs, and after confirming that there were no other dangers nearby, he lowered the roof, said a few final words, and closed the live broadcast.
The only sounds in the wilderness were the sound of burning dead wood and Harley's muffled breathing as he had not yet recovered from the danger.
In the small space of the camp, the cheetah kept circling along the wooden fence.
The scene of being surrounded by spotted hyenas was still lingering in the cheetah's mind, making it difficult for it to let down its guard and rest.
This is a very common situation for the naturally weak cheetah. Bifang did not offer much comfort and chose to let time solve everything.
About half an hour later, Bifang, who was lying on the ground and about to fall asleep in a daze, finally sensed that the cheetah, which had been pacing non-stop, had lay down, curled up into a ball, and leaned against him.
"I'm asleep."
…
The loud noise rolled and spread from far to near, rapidly expanding in circles.
The ground was rumbling and shaking, raising countless dust particles that flew through the new green grass. The dewdrops on the tips of the grass shook twice, fell to the ground, and soaked a small area of light brown.
What a commotion.
Bifang turned over and sat up, turning on the live broadcast, but found that Harley had already woken up, his curvy body curled up into a ball, his fear obvious.
After experiencing the dangerous situation last night, this guy is now a little frightened.
[What’s going on? Such a big commotion]
【Has it been renovated? 】
[What’s the point of pretending to be a prairie? Why do you want to give the prairie a middle part?]
【Could it be an earthquake? 】
The audience in the live broadcast room also heard the roar of the earth. Without even bothering to say hello in the morning, they hurriedly asked what happened to Bifang.
Unfortunately, Bifang is also confused now, but judging from his experience, he thinks it is not an earthquake.
The cover above the head was opened a little, and some light came in.
The arrival of the spotted hyenas last night did not lead to a high-intensity conflict, but facing a group of predators still consumed a lot of my mind and energy, and I ended up sleeping until dawn.
Bifang was thinking in his mind, but his eyes were looking into the distance through the gap, observing the surroundings vigilantly. Only then did he discover that on the horizon not far away, there was a wild dragon coming from a rolling dust!
As the dragon rolled, the earth also trembled. The smoke and dust were uneven in height, and from a distance it looked like layers of overlapping scales.
"That is..."
Bifang squinted his eyes and stared for a long time. His gaze seemed to penetrate the dust and he recognized from the black and white who was rushing towards him.
"Zebra herd!?"
zebra!
There are still so many of them.
The audience in front of the screen was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of the return of the great animal migration that they had learned from Bifang several days ago.
Great Migration!
It’s definitely a great migration of animals!
[Fuck, this is animal migration? ]
[This is too spectacular]
[Awesome! I thought it was an earthquake.]
How many heads does this have?
[Not sure, at least thousands of them, right?]
Bifang roughly estimated the number and said, "Definitely more than two thousand."
"Zebras are very social animals and live in groups. They forage together and groom each other's fur. Even old individuals will not be expelled from the group and live alone."
"But the group is usually not big, at most about 10, compact and not loose, but this is under normal circumstances. Once they are ready to migrate, they will gather together and the number will be exaggerated."
"This is also the vanguard of all migrating animals."
The animal herds participating in the great migration are divided into three armies: front, middle and rear.
Leading the way are more than 200,000 wild zebras, followed closely by millions of wildebeests, and bringing up the rear are 500,000 gazelles.
The main reason for this is that their food range is different.
Zebras like to eat high-layer new grass, the middle-layer tender grass is just the food for wildebeests, and the bottom-layer short grass is the delicacy for small gazelles.
Following the herbivores are groups of ferocious carnivores such as African lions, cheetahs, and jackals.
In the huge migration of Africa, wildebeest becomes the protagonist with its absolute numerical advantage and is also the representative species of the great migration.
But the first ones you see are often zebras as the vanguard.
[So that's how it is]
[Is there a sequence?]
[Damn, this is a reasonable allocation]
The audience exclaimed that they had learned a lot. They never thought that there were so many details in such a small migration.
After seeing the real reason for the earthquake, Bifang immediately opened the roof and picked up the things on the ground.
"Let's pack up and leave quickly, away from the zebra herd."
[Ah, why is this happening? Are you trying to escape?]
[Is there any danger?]
"Well, there is danger, but not much."
Bifang nodded.
"In normal migration, they basically won't run wildly except before and after crossing the river. If this happens, it's either because they were frightened or chased by hunters."
Migrating animals get up very early, and usually line up in long, neat lines and move slowly at dawn.
There is no beginning or end to the team .
And they all pay great attention to discipline, sitting side by side and not easily causing trouble.
When you suddenly start running on the grassland, you will basically encounter a lion or a spotted hyena.
After gathering the things together, Bifang rolled up the animal skins on the ground, tied them up, and then carried them all together and quickly left into the distance.
At this time, the herd of zebras also came closer, galloping towards them.
Bifang, who was standing on a slope a hundred meters away, also saw several lionesses pouncing on a lame zebra in the distance.
