lion heart

Chapter 24 Mother's Heart
As night fell, the lionesses set out again.

Jin Er led the seven cubs to find Baixue, patted Baixue's head, and rubbed Baixue's cheeks.Jin Er was telling Bai Xue not to be discouraged, to take good care of the seven cubs and twelve juvenile lions at home, and he wanted to follow the lions to attack the buffalo.

The golden ball and the yellow ball soon hid in the grass and fell asleep.During the two and a half months since Jin Qiu and Huang Qiu returned to the group, Baixue never stayed with them except for breastfeeding. She secretly guarded them at a distance of about 30 meters.The golden ball and the yellow ball sleep quietly for most of the day. If they occasionally play with each other, run a little farther, or make more noise, they will be stopped and warned by Bai Xue.

After returning to the group, Jin Qiu and Huang Qiu seldom play with the five golden-eared cubs, let alone follow the twelve juvenile lions in the grass to chase, play, fight, and practice tracking their prey.

When the lion group kills the prey, the five cubs of Golden Ear will fight for the prey with open teeth and claws, not afraid of the snarling of the male lion Hessen and the tearing of the female lions.The cowardly Jin Qiu and Huang Qiu would just stand numbly behind the frenzied lions, watching all this with fear.Only after the lions had withdrawn did they begin to lick the meat left on the ground.Even if Bai Xue puts a piece of meat in front of the golden ball and the yellow ball, it will be snatched away by other lions, and the golden ball and the yellow ball don't even have the usual angry expression of baring their teeth.

Normal lion cubs learn early on to protect their prey and get used to the violent rejection they receive when they share their prey.From the time they are little toddlers, they realize that they have to fight to survive.In order to protect its own small piece of food, a lion cub will stretch out its sharp claws without hesitation and grab the nose of a male lion forty times its size.

However, the temperaments of Jin Qiu and Huang Qiu are becoming more and more like cowering jackals, timid and submissive, completely lacking in the lively and domineering nature of the little lion.

Golden Ear's five cubs refused to hide in the grass to sleep.From the day they were born, they are used to sleeping peacefully under the gentle licking and patting of their mothers.The five cubs yelled "Ah-ow, ah-ow", and followed Baixue every step of the way, trying to sleep under Baixue's belly and enjoy the warm caress before going to bed.Bai Xue was very afraid that the cub's cry would attract hyenas who were hunting for food at night.

The hyena of the steppe is an ugly and fearsome animal, with irregular dun markings on its curly, shaggy yellow fur.They have round heads, thick necks, sparse miscellaneous hairs on their ears, long front legs and short hind legs, giving them a wretched look.A single hyena is timid and timid, but a large group of hyenas is fearless and very arrogant.

Now that it is the dry season, large animals have migrated, and it is becoming increasingly difficult for hyenas to find carrion.Therefore, lion cubs are also included in the diet of hyenas.

Bai Xue had to stay with the five cubs.Baixue wanted to wait for the five cubs to sleep soundly before leaving them, and retreated to a distance of about 30 meters to protect them, lest her dazzling white fur attract the attention of hyenas or raptors and bring danger to the cubs.

The five cubs were playing with each other, running around, refusing to fall asleep for a long time, and Bai Xue was so anxious that they chased after each other on the grass.Twelve juvenile lions jumped out of their hiding places, excitedly joining in the pursuit of the cubs.

With great difficulty, Bai Xue gathered the five cubs and brought them back to the sleeping grass.Twelve excited juvenile lions suddenly rushed over, trying to tease the five cubs with their front paws.The five cubs stood on their hind legs and jumped violently, pounced on the twelve juvenile lions, and struck the noses of the twelve juvenile lions.Twelve juvenile lions roared loudly, waved their paws in the air, and teased the five cubs in a pretentious manner.

Faced with the chaotic situation, Bai Xue was helpless, running around like an ant on a hot pan.

Under the moonlight, Baixue's running figure was like a signal light in a moonlit night, attracting the hyena group.The hyena thought the lions were hunting and wanted to grab a bite of food.

The eyes of twenty hyenas are shining with green light, and there are small lanterns swimming on the grassland.This group of hyenas formed an encirclement circle, bared their white teeth one by one, let out a terrifying roar, and approached Baixue and the others, seeing the encirclement circle getting smaller and smaller.

The lions on the grassland have no guts to compete with a large group of hyenas.They are afraid of the devious attack of large groups of hyenas, especially their indestructible teeth.The teeth of hyenas are so sharp that they can crush even the bones of elephants.

The twelve juvenile lions quickly climbed up the nearby low trees and disappeared in a flash.The five cubs yelled "Ah-ow, ah-ow", seeking the protection of their mother.Jin Qiu and Huang Qiu were also awakened by the hyena's barking, and ran towards Bai Xue in a daze.

Bai Xue bit her front leg without hesitation, tore open the old injury on her right front leg, and ran to the place where the Majia lions were hunting.Bai Xue wanted to lure the hyena away with the smell of fresh blood and her dazzling white fur.But before Bai Xue's idea could be implemented, the hyena group had already found seven lion cubs.Baixue turned around, threw herself at the seven cubs, held them firmly under her belly, roared fearlessly at the hyenas, and sounded an alarm to the lions.

Hyenas, a wretched animal, are best at snatching food from other carnivores.

The pack of hyenas now counts seven cubs on their plate.It was no problem to snatch them from a lioness, but the hyenas forgot that Snow White was not only a lioness, but also a lion mother.There is nothing in the world that can overcome a mother's faith and courage.

Baixue guarded the seven cubs stubbornly, refusing to back down even a single step.Blood was dripping from Bai Xue's torn foreleg, which further stimulated the hyena's bloodthirsty nature.Baixue's ears, Baixue's abdomen, and Baixue's buttocks were all bitten by the hyena's sharp teeth that could break bones.

More hyenas swarmed up and climbed onto Snowy's back. More than 20 hungry hyenas are tearing and eating Baixue's fresh body...

The hyena laughed wildly "Aha-ha", like a group of demons dancing wildly. At this time, the grassland turned into a dark and bloody hell.

After hearing Baixue's alarm, the Majia lions who came to the rescue rushed here...

Baixue is holding on, waiting for the lions to come, with a mother's heart, a brave heart, and a lion's heart...
