Live Wilderness Adventure

Live Wild Adventures Chapter 821 Lost

Regrettably, although the Egyptian cobra is mighty, its opponent is not easy to match. It is the boss of the birds - the North African ostrich.

Birds are the envy of all people and animals who yearn to take to the skies.

Only birds on the earth are animals that are truly qualified to fly freely.

But not all birds are excellent pilots, but just like the famous chicken soup essay, when God closes the door, he must open the window.

"The ostrich is the largest of all birds, but it is a pity that the ostrich only lives in Africa, and its range of activities is too narrow. Otherwise, it will definitely win the title of a bird king."

"It's true that they can't fly, but their fighting power on land is completely comparable to that of a leopard!"

Bi Fang shrank behind the rock, watching the confrontation between a bird and a snake, before the fight broke out, he spoke surprisingly.

The audience was in an uproar.

Fuck, is it true or not? Leopard? 】

God, are you kidding me? 】

Doesn't this thing bury its head when it encounters danger? Scratch your head]

The ostrich has a large body and a thin neck, which is a great weakness no matter how you look at it.

Thinking about the image of the leopard in my mind again, I am afraid that the neck was bitten off with one bite, right?

How do you fight?

In the eyes of most ordinary people, felines have always been the ceiling of the animal world's combat power. Hearing what Bi Fang said, he couldn't accept it.

"You still don't understand. Leopards generally weigh between 100 and 200 catties, while ostriches can weigh more than 300 catties! That's a big win."

Big is good, big is strong.

This sentence is not absolutely correct in nature, but it is absolutely universal.

The height of an ostrich can reach 1.5 meters, which is equivalent to the height of a 14-year-old boy.

And its means of attack come from rafter pecks and long stomping grabs. In terms of hard power, ostriches are no less lethal than hyenas and wolves.

At the same time, regardless of the weight of the ostrich, this guy's running speed is also the best in the animal world.

The fastest running speed can reach 70km/h. Only cheetahs, leopards, and gazelles can match the running speed of ostriches, and they can run so fast, and their strength is not weak. The most important thing is that they can A pair of long legs can cause powerful damage to the enemy.

In addition, the ostrich has a strong personality and is often unmotivated. It is a guy who has revenge and will often launch an offensive quickly when threatened. This is different from wild animals such as antelopes and zebras, which is much stronger.

It can also be seen from this that the ostrich has its own strength to survive.

In terms of combat effectiveness on the territory of Africa, even the younger lioness is no match for the ostrich.

The condescending posture of the ostrich suppresses the fighting lion to a certain extent. Therefore, the ostrich is also a member at the top of the food chain in Africa, and its strength should not be underestimated.

Especially to reptiles and snakes, ostriches are like gods.

Because of this, there are a large number of reptiles on the ostrich diet as an omnivore, which naturally includes snakes, but it is relatively rare to actively deal with such a large cobra.

Bi Fang spoke out some characteristics of the ostrich at a very fast speed, and under the enumeration of various facts, the audience had to be skeptical.

After all, the distance is far away, and the ostriches photographed at this time have no specific reference objects, and there is no sense of oppression in terms of size. It is normal to have such doubts.

So, is Cobra doomed? 】

I find it hard to say, maybe it will overturn】

"That's true, there is no such thing in nature..." Bi Fang wanted to say something, but he quickly stopped talking and reminded the audience with a low voice, "Look, they are fighting!"

The lens automatically zoomed in and focused, and the audience immediately stopped the barrage they were still trying to send.

In the canyon, a bird and a snake that were still confronting each other have changed from confrontation to mutual temptation.

The most powerful weapon of an ostrich is its feet. The test is naturally a simple kick. Perhaps because of its strength, the audience couldn't see the moment when it threw its legs.

The Egyptian cobra is obviously a subspecies, its body is pitch black, and it is mighty and domineering. It does not lose momentum when facing the ostrich, but it is much shorter in size. Facing the temptation of the ostrich, it can only move and retreat while looking for opportunities, with a pair of snake eyes fixed on it Living in an ostrich, the frequency of sending messages is significantly faster.

Although he opened his eyes, Cobra still couldn't deny the fact that he was nearsighted.

All snakes are short-sighted, most snakes can only see things within 1 meter clearly, and the snake's eyeballs cannot move like the eyeballs of most animals, which leads to the snake's visual range is also very small.

In addition, there is no optic fovea behind the eyeballs of snakes, which is the most sensitive area for perception of vision, so snakes not only cannot see things clearly, but also have very poor ability to detect stationary objects.

This is just the majority of snakes. Although cobras are near-sighted, they are already considered good. Like some snakes under the snake family, they either live in water or in caves, and their vision has deteriorated even more.

The blind hooked snake lives underground all its life, and its eyes have degenerated into two small black dots, with only weak light sensitivity and almost no vision.

But the cobra has a very strong organ for searching prey, that is the tongue, that is, the snake letter.

"Snakes under the cobra family all use snake signals to collect odor particles in the air, and use odor particles to judge the location and type of prey."

During the short confrontation, Bi Fang spoke quickly, and his voice was amplified a lot unconsciously.

He is not afraid that ostriches and cobras will hear and run away.

Once animals start hunting or fighting, their attention to the outside world is very low, especially stationary objects, as long as they don't jump in front of them, they will basically not be found, and they will be regarded as the natural environment by default.

For example, once the wolves start chasing the fleeing antelope, even if a motionless rabbit passes by them, they will not attract their attention, but they can get away with it by a yard.

Of course, if it moves, it will be another story.

After tens of seconds of probing, the battle soon became fierce.

The ostrich obviously became more courageous and started to attack more frequently, but this also made the cobra see it more clearly.

The audience couldn't help but hold their breath.

Finally, the ostrich's attack hit the cobra's tail, almost on the spot, the cobra's flesh and blood exploded, splashing a pool of blood on the rock beside it.

Is it over?

For snakes, most viewers don't have a good opinion of them. Seeing that Cobra lost, they don't think there is anything bad about it.

But at this point, a sudden change occurred!

The cobra, which was almost half broken, suddenly jumped up, bit the ostrich's neck that was about to lower its head and tear it, and then quickly wound up!

Bi Fang couldn't hold back an exclamation.

Can this be counter-killed?

Looking at the remaining half of the snake tail on the ground, which was still swaying, everyone felt a little absurd.

It is quite normal for an ostrich to kill a cobra, even though the Egyptian cobra has one of the most venomous snakes in the world, and its size is extremely huge.

There is no small size in the cobra family, and it is highly poisonous, which is a species with considerable advantages.

It is more poisonous than it, and its body is not as big as it.

Those bigger than it have less poisonous venom.

Poisonous snakes usually prey on smaller creatures, and they rarely use entanglement, but it doesn't mean they can't.

Facing the ostrich, the seriously injured cobra obviously didn't dare to be careless, and injected the toxin crazily, wrapping the ostrich's neck tightly, like a black scarf around it, but this scarf is very scary.

Bi Fang licked the corner of his mouth, his heart was filled with excitement. Although he was just watching the show, this rare anti-killing scene is extremely rare.

The cobra has such long eyesight that it is difficult to keep up with the attack speed of the ostrich. This time it can bite the vital point with one bite, which is completely like a blind cat meeting a dead mouse.

As an explorer of nature, Bi Fang also dabbles deeply in all kinds of animals and loves them very much. He is naturally happy to see such a scene.

"The ostrich's neck is very fragile, because both the bones and the muscles of the ostrich's neck focus on flexibility, and the strength is not great. The legs are extremely strong, and the muscles on the femur and fibula are extremely developed."

"It might be fine if it bites the leg, but if it's the neck, the ostrich probably won't survive."

"only......"

nothing but what]

Say it】

Bi Fang stared at the remaining half of the snake's body on the ground, but it was not short at all, it was nearly a third of the length, completely exceeding the scope of the tail.

"It's hard for this cobra to survive."

"If only the tail is broken, the probability of survival is quite high, and there may be some disabilities, but now it is so long, it may have hurt the internal organs, plus the infection and deterioration of the natural environment..."

Even in animals, infection is quite fatal.

Almost before Bi Fang finished speaking, the ostrich had already started to react. It was bitten at first and frantically shook its head and flapped its wings, but it was all in vain.

With the venom so close to the head, the venom quickly took effect, making the ostrich dizzy, and finally fell on the ostrich. The huge size even caused a burst of dust.

The cobra that fell to the ground didn't stay too long. Almost after killing the ostrich, it didn't even take the loot. It immediately let go of its body and fled out of the canyon.

Then Bi Fang walked out from behind the boulder, looked at the bloodstains left on the ground, and shook his head.

The bloodstains are not long. Snakes are muscular and have the ability to stop bleeding by themselves. What's more, the ground is full of gravel, which can also help stop bleeding to a certain extent after being contaminated.

The ostrich on the ground was still struggling and flapping its wings, but it was a pity that it had undoubtedly returned to life.

With the amount of venom of a cobra, it is almost impossible for this huge ostrich to survive.

Eye-opener】

Diao】

I thought the ostrich would just put its head down when it was in danger, but I didn’t expect it to be so violent, even though it’s dead]

"It's actually a rumor that the ostrich is buried in this."

Bi Fang shook his head.

"Many people think that ostriches will bury their heads in the sand to escape danger when they are frightened. This also leads to the saying 'ostrich policy', but this is actually not true."

"The ostrich as a symbol of stupidity has been recorded as early as in the Bible "Old Testament": "Are the wings of the ostrich open for joy, are they the feathers and feathers of love? ... because God has made it without wisdom, and has not given it understanding. It. When it rises up and spreads its wings, it laughs at horses and riders.'”

"However, the first person to write down this rumor and clearly describe the behavior of ostriches was the Roman thinker Pliny the Elder who lived in AD 2379."

"Pliny wrote in his natural history that ostriches thought that when they poked their heads and necks into the bushes, their bodies hid with them."

"Although it is similar, it is quite different from burying one's head. Later, I don't know how it evolved into an ostrich burying its head in the sand."

"But this is completely impossible. Most of the nostrils of birds are born at the base of the beak. Like kiwis, they can only forage by smell. Birds with nostrils at the front of the beak have to insert their nostrils into the mud to find food. Then you have to sniff your nostrils vigorously to get rid of the debris that is obstructing your breathing."

To tell you the truth, I have been using reading books to catch up, change sources, read aloud with many timbres, and both Android and Apple can be used. 】

"If you bury your head, the ostrich will just suffocate."

"As for why such rumors arise, it is probably because the head of an ostrich is small compared to its body, so as long as the head of the ostrich is close to the ground, it may be mistaken for its head buried in the sand. It is easy to misunderstand. "

In fact, if an ostrich encounters an enemy, the first thing it does is run.

Although the ostrich belongs to the class of birds, it has completely lost the ability to fly.

The bones of birds are thin and light, the long bones are filled with air, and all the bone fragments of the skull are completely healed~www.readwn.com~The thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, the sacral vertebrae and the caudal vertebrae are all healed with each other, and the sacral vertebrae and the left and right girdles are also healed together.

There are hook-like protrusions on the ribs, hooking each other to form a strong thorax.

Flying birds also have a triangular keel on the sternum. To increase the attachment area of ​​pectoralis and vibrating wing muscles.

These unique structures of the bird's skeleton reduce weight and strengthen the ability to support flight.

But the ostrich is obviously not like this.

As the largest modern bird in the world, the male ostrich is generally more than 2 meters high and weighs about 150 kilograms, but its feathers are all soft.

The wings of ostriches have been specialized, and there is no hook between the filaments of the feathers, so they cannot form a complete feather with flight function, so they can only stay on land.

If you don't look carefully, you may even mistake it for having no wings.

In addition, it has only a flat breastbone and underdeveloped chest muscles, but although they cannot be used to fly, their feathers still have basic functions of heat preservation and heat dissipation, and can also help change the direction of progress when running.

Bi Fang squatted on the ground.

At this time, the ostrich was completely motionless, and he poked it with a stick, but there was no response.

Totally dead.

This also made Bi Fang feel relieved to reach out and touch the dead ostrich.

"Many wrong conclusions are caused by insufficient observation, and ostriches are no exception."

"They have been misunderstood for more than two thousand years. Even if more and more people know the truth, they cannot resist the widespread circulation of the saying 'stupid as an ostrich'."

"However, I have said so much, maybe one day these sayings will become 'strong as an ostrich'."

Bi Fang smiled, paused, and then added

"If there were still ostriches then."
