Tibetan Mastiff Notes

Chapter 30 Wolf kills wolf (7)
As I was walking, I asked Uncle Duoji in a low voice: "I never thought that wolves would kill each other among their own kind, and the death rate reached such a high rate. It is unimaginable." Uncle Duoji sighed helplessly and said, "Yes. , Our country was originally the country with the largest wolf population in the world. However, due to the severe damage to the living environment in recent years and the long-term man-made mass hunting, the distribution area of ​​wolves in our country has been greatly reduced. In the past, they were found almost all over the country, but now they are in lumps. I heard rumors that the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions are basically extinct, even in our northern forests and grasslands, there are not many large wolf packs." I said, "Yes, until now, I haven't heard of any special wolf packs. What about the protected area established to protect wolves! Maybe everyone thinks that wolves are cruel and harmful animals, so they are born to die, right?" Uncle Duoji sighed again. He is a simple old herdsman. These secular people need to be rational, because they don't need quick success, and they don't need instant benefits. All they have in their minds is peace.Uncle Dorji said worriedly: "Cruel? No matter how cruel the wolf is, it only eats some grassland animals. They play a great role in controlling the ecological balance! We humans fly in the sky, swim in the water, and drill in the soil." , which one would not eat? No matter how ferocious wolves are, they are no match for humans! If this continues, maybe in a few decades, wolves in our country will become extinct.” I personally think that what Uncle Duoji said is not comprehensive. With the development of the economy and the increase of the population, humans continue to snatch land from wild animals and develop resources. The living territory of wolves is getting smaller and smaller, and the probability of cannibalism is also increasing, and the death rate will naturally increase. .This is true not only for wolves, but also for other wild animals. I think: If everyone fails to realize this, all wild animals on the earth will die in a few decades, hundreds of years or even longer. Only us self-proclaimed civilized human beings are left. Is there any meaning for that person to live?I heard that due to various human-made reasons, the number of wild elephants in the world has decreased by 90.00%100, and the plateau Tibetan antelope, a species unique to China, has been reduced from [-] million to tens of thousands in just a few years due to the flood of human poaching Only, it is on the verge of extinction. I wonder how many years it will take for wolves to become extinct?
Uncle Zaximu's face became very gloomy, and he may have realized that it was indeed a bit cruel to execute the sky lantern on the captured wolf, but from what Uncle Duoji said vaguely, he felt that It was embarrassing, thinking that Uncle Duoji didn't give him face.In fact, I know that Uncle Duoji is unintentional. He just discusses the matter as it stands, without thinking about so many things, so I immediately said: "Let's follow the past today to see if Ge Ge is still alive, we will try to rescue Ge Ge. If Ge Ge is not there Now, let's not disturb those wolves, the wolves should not take the initiative to attack us if they are not threatened." What I mean is: when we arrive at the territory of the wolves later, Uncle Tashimu must not The idea of ​​beating wolves, if there are many wolves, we will suffer a lot.

Uncle Tashimu kept silent, his face was livid, and he walked with a click, leaving footprints like deep pits on the snow.

The old wolf walked for a while, turned to the other side, and Uncle Dorji said, "It's a long way to go there, it's a jungle, maybe the big wolf pack lives there." Speaking, even Dahei slowed down, trying to minimize the sound of panting, the later the wolves find us, the better it will be for us.

Suddenly, the old wolf stopped. Instead of going any further, it looked left and right.Dahei also stopped vigilantly, took two steps forward, and carefully sniffed the smell in the air.

Suddenly, Dahei arched his back towards the left side, bared his teeth, and let out a low warning growl from his throat.I knew there must be something wrong on the left side, so while reminding everyone to be careful, I patted Dahei on the back, signaling her to relax.

The old wolf pricked up his ears, his back hair stood straight, his lips were turned back, the skin on the bridge of his nose was wrinkled, exposing his sharp fangs, he arched his back, growled lowly into the air, and turned his head, Run to the left.Wolves only have this expression when they are angry. We knew that we might not be far from the big wolf pack, so our nerves became tense, and we tiptoed behind the big wolf.I was afraid that Dahei would rush up as soon as he saw the wolves, so I had no choice but to hold her back and walk at the end.After walking to the left for a long time, Dahei and Laolang sniffed all the way, the smell in the air became heavier and heavier, and even I smelled a bloody smell.

Going straight to the left, there are several hills, and there is a large valley below, connecting with the jungle on the right.The old wolf led us up the hillside. We were still at the foot of the hillside when we heard the howling of wolves coming from the valley.

Wolves fighting?I think it is 90.00% because I heard no other beasts other than the howling of wolves.We walked up the hillside carefully, found a place with thicker snow, lay down, and looked into the hillside.The old wolf was smarter. It kept a certain distance from us, and first rolled a few times in the snow. After its body and head were covered with snow, it quietly lay down and crawled up to the hillside bit by bit. , stuck out his snow-covered head, and looked down.

Inspired by the old wolf, I sprinkled snow on everyone's hats, especially Dahei's black head was more conspicuous. She was lying beside me, and I covered her with snow-covered sleeves The big head is covered, only a pair of eyes are exposed.

This time, the battle of wolves in the valley was thrilling. It was a fight between two big wolf packs, the local wolves and the alien wolves who had migrated from the border area.There are forty or fifty wolves in each team, so counting together, there are almost a hundred ferocious wolves fighting right under our noses.No wonder even Dahei didn't dare to act rashly. She might have smelled the number of wolves from the very beginning. When walking from downhill to uphill, she shortened her legs as much as possible and lowered her body.Dahei knew very well that if the wolves got their attention, the two teams of wolves would stop fighting and attack us at the same time. In front of so many cunning and ferocious wolves, don't say any big words to turn the tide, maybe she can do it herself by then. Paul, it's hard to say for us two-legged animals.

We have never seen such a big battle between two packs of wolves. Even Uncle Dorji, who has lived on the prairie for more than 50 years, was amazed.In the face of the large pack of wolves that moved in from foreign lands, in order to protect their territory and food groups, the local wolves united together unprecedentedly. Before winter, they were only small groups of five or six, but now they are united together. Work together to resist foreign invasion and hegemony.

I deeply understand that unity is the real strength. No matter how advanced your technology is, no matter how sophisticated your equipment is, if you are not united and scattered, you will only be defeated by opponents whose technology and equipment are inferior to yours.However, the equipment of foreign wolves is not inferior to that of local wolves, and their technical content is not bad. Maybe they have been persecuted and hunted in various ways when they were in their own territory. Use your strong body and smart mind to seize new territories.

I found that the old wolf's initial anger turned into fear, his tail was retracted, and his body was curled up as small as possible to make himself less conspicuous.I didn't dare to act rashly anymore. Nearly a hundred wolves were not just for fun. It is estimated that many prairie people, old and young, would never encounter such a grand scene once in their lifetime.In fact, we came too late and missed the initial tactical deployment stage of the two wolf packs. What we see now is just a melee after the adjustment of the forces. Although it is a melee, it is orderly.

After careful observation, I found that the large pack of wolves from outsiders obviously had a great advantage.First of all, they have a big advantage in terms of size. They are strong and larger. The demand for large food intake requires a lot of hunting activities. After long-term exercise, the lung capacity will be greater. How good is the heart and lung function of wolves? Can play a great role in winning the battle.Moreover, the wolves who immigrated from other races are more intelligent. Perhaps the living environment of wolves in their territory is very harsh, and their long-term accumulation of living experience has created their intelligent minds.

The leaders of the two wolf packs stood on their own highlands, observed the battle situation on the battlefield, and issued howling commands at any time to direct the wolves to fight.I studied it carefully for a while, and was surprised to find that the wolf king who moved in actually had a human-like mind, which surprised me so much that I almost rolled my eyes.None of you can imagine that the immigrated wolf king would arrange such a tactic: It divides its team into three groups, the weak, the strong and the strongest, and it directs the weak group to attack the opposing wolf. A group of strong teams carry out entanglement attacks to consume the opponent's physical strength, then use a stronger wave to attack the opponent's weaker team, and finally use the strongest wave to mainly attack the opponent's stronger team.This is the trick Sun Bin set up for Tian Ji during Tian Ji's horse racing during the Warring States Period!This is the ingenuity of human beings!How could wolves use it so skillfully?Obviously, in the fight between the three pairs of wolves, according to the most conservative plan, the team of wolves who moved in could win three to two. Not weak, and the entanglement tactics are adopted, and they are not really fighting, so they can't suffer much at all.Local wolves are going to lose!I was so worried that my palms were sweating, but there was nothing I could do. This is natural selection and natural selection. Human beings can only transform nature, but they cannot reverse the will of nature. What's more, such a large pack of wolves are killing each other. Can not escape part of the indirect responsibility.

I watched the local wolves being bitten by the immigrating wolf pack and howling miserably. The snow was covered with bloodstains, the snow lumps flew under the wolf's claws, and the wolf's fur fluttered like snowflakes in the air.From the bottom of my heart to the top of my head, I couldn't bear to watch the brutality of the wolves fighting.

The local alpha wolf sensed that the situation was not good, and after careful consideration, he decided to adjust his tactics. The alpha wolf kept raising his head and howling, and changed his footsteps, turning his head in different directions, and the battlefield immediately changed.I immediately gathered my energy and watched carefully. The local wolves once again gathered their forces, and adopted the method of concentrating their superiority and defeating them individually. A small army, launching an onslaught on the weakest members of the opposing wolf pack.

After basically suppressing the opponent's vulnerable groups, they then surrounded the opponent's stronger groups and defeated them one by one.This trick really worked. Although the wolves were huge, a single wolf couldn't withstand the attack of seven or eight wolves. Soon, the wolves suffered a big loss.

Realizing that his subordinates suffered a loss, the wolf who moved in was very unwilling. It also decided to adjust its tactics, redistribute its troops, raised its head and howled, whimpering, like crying.This is just a new wolf. It was supposed to be the subordinate of the injured old wolf, but after the old wolf was bitten by the big black on the tail, he started to usurp the throne. Terrible contender.Generally speaking, those who usurp the throne and successfully succeed all have extremely clever minds and extremely cruel methods. This is true for humans, and even more so for wolves.As the saying goes, the able ones live there, and the kings of the able ones, who are stronger than the next generation, lead their groups to continuously evolve their advantages. This is the core force that keeps a team thriving and gradually becoming stronger.

As soon as the new leader discovered that the battlefield advantage had changed, he immediately made a second adjustment of troops.The head wolf called back the most powerful group of wolves that were pinned down by the opposing wolf pack. I found that amidst the howling of the head wolf, the wolves who moved in suddenly scattered to all directions in the valley like flowers being exploded. After reaching the maximum dispersion, when the local wolves were still confused, they suddenly gathered together towards the center, like a big bag with its mouth tightened.

The group of strongest wolves recalled by the head wolf rushed in from this gradually tightened pocket, carrying out presumptuous and ruthless slaughter orders. Small, many wolves in the middle couldn't rush to the front, so they could only stand in place and wait for the slaughter, while the wolves in the front had been bitten and bruised all over.My scalp was numb, and I felt that the roots of my hair were standing up stiffly. It was the first time I saw such a large group of wolves fighting, and they also used the tactics that humans had used. I was deeply impressed by the horror of wolves. Wisdom, downright creepy.

I made an illogical assumption. If the evolution of wolves hundreds of millions of years ago was faster, or could catch up with the level of human evolution, if wolves could also walk upright like humans, and could use tools and Create tools, then, it is hard to say who will fall into the hands of the supreme dominance on the earth now.I have been thinking: the tactics used by these wolves just now are the essence condensed by human beings in thousands of years of conquest, why do wolves do it?And they can be learned and used flexibly, so well used?I know that people often say that dogs understand human nature. That’s because dogs can understand human thoughts through human language and expressions, and dogs evolved from wolves. What’s more, wolves have understood part of human language since ancient times, so wolves are right. The degree of human understanding and speculation is even more conceivable.Therefore, when humans and wolves were living and evolving at the same time for thousands of years, wolves began to observe humans and learn the way of survival and dominance from humans, the natural enemies of wolves at that time, because humans hunted wolves more than now. It is even more extensive. The wolf clearly realized in ancient times: Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in all battles!
These principles are learned by wolves and anthropology, and they are still deepening and being used in their minds.They passed on the knowledge and skills they learned from humans from generation to generation. Later, in the life cycle of wolves, the word "history" also appeared.

We humans know how to preserve our experience and knowledge in history textbooks for future generations to learn and refine. Wolves should also understand this truth.I think: there should be something called "historical textbooks" widely circulated in the wolf group. They are not entities that exist in reality, but skills that wolves pass on to future generations through precepts and deeds.Pass it on, absorb it, and apply it flexibly. Knowing that wolves who give one example and turn the other three are terrible, learn knowledge from human beings, and then use the same way to give back to the other body at the right time.

The intelligence possessed by animals is far beyond the imagination of human beings. Perhaps those are just some natural behaviors produced by animals in order to survive, but in the eyes of human beings, they are artificially tricked or intelligent, so , when people are suddenly exposed to the behavior of these animals, they see it as an uncannyly human resourcefulness.I boldly conjecture: If the number of wolves in the world is not decreasing sharply, wolves may not be so succumbed to human hunting and persecution, and they will never move out of their territories, and even revolt in groups. Launching a human-wolf guerrilla war, this kind of thing, wolves can definitely do it, as long as their team is strong enough.

The more I think about it, the more my heart trembles, God can't be bullied!We human beings should not divide the good and bad, beauty and ugliness of animals according to our own preferences just because we are the masters of the earth. Every animal and every species has an inevitable reason for its existence, let them survive naturally , Death, isn't it better?My brain is spinning rapidly, the situation on the battlefield has changed again, and the wolf leaders of the two teams are constantly adjusting their tactics and strength. Suddenly, in the team of local wolves, I found a wolf with half of its ear broken. Wolf.This wolf looks very familiar, it is very brave, jumping up and down, like a vigorous little leopard, I immediately remembered that there was a wolf that I broke half of its ear with a shotgun, could it be that one?Could it be that the former team of small wolves also joined the large army of local wolves?I would like to continue watching for a while, after all, it is very rare for a pack of wolves to fight fiercely in such a big scene. However, the injured old wolf was slowly retreating down the snow slope. It did not stand up, but Lie on the snow like that, move the four legs back slowly, and keep watching the front.

Uncle Duoji touched my hand lightly and motioned me to leave quickly. Maybe the wolf leaders of the two wolf teams discovered our hiding place. We can hide for a while, but not for a long time.

I had no choice but to lead Dahei back down the hillside bit by bit. As soon as the old wolf climbed down the hillside, he immediately straightened his four legs, tried his best, and advanced towards the jungle area on the right at the fastest speed.I immediately understood that the old wolf was going to add insult to injury and take the opportunity to attack the old den of the wolf pack, because usually the adult male wolves in the pack come out to hunt for food and fight, while the young wolves and young female wolves should stay in the den , a pup or pup born after a young female wolf has nursed a wolf.Going to the wolf's lair at this time is when the rear is empty, so it is the most suitable time to take advantage of the fire!

I gritted my teeth and took a look at the old wolf. This guy is worthy of being the former wolf king. When human beings are attracted by the fierce battle of wolves, he can wake up from the fierce battle in front of him in time and keep a vigilant heart all the time. A heart that clearly knows what it needs and what it doesn't.Wolves, you really can't tell what you look like!To be honest, if there are no wolves on the prairie, the existence of mastiffs may lose their meaning.
