Chapter 69 Lions fighting for food
A male lion must maintain a strong body shape no matter what time it is. If a male lion is so hungry that he loses weight, how can he possibly protect his pride?
Such a lion cannot be the lion king for only a few days, and will be replaced by other stray lions.
Therefore, male lions need to eat food frequently even in the dry season. If there is no food for many days, then this male lion will not have the strength to protect his pride, and such a pride will soon be replaced by other stray lions.
There is nothing Jike can do now. His two wives always fail to hunt, making his husband always hungry, and he has to go to work with his wives.
But even if the great army Jike and his two wives go to work together, it will be very difficult to successfully hunt. After all, at this time, there were very few prey that could be hunted on the prairie.
Either very small animals or very large animals. For lions, if you want to feed a pride, it is best to hunt some large prey. Only large prey can feed the entire pride.
Jike and his two wives took aim at an adult buffalo today. This is a lone buffalo.
Originally, an opportunity like this was a very good opportunity for a pride of lions. If it succeeded, it would be able to get a lot of food.
Especially for the Jik lion pride, there are only three adult lions, and the rest are some cubs who don't have a big appetite.
If you can hunt an adult buffalo, it will really be a hearty meal for the Jik lion pride.
But adult buffalo are not that easy to hunt. It is even more difficult for a lion group like the Jike group of lions whose combat effectiveness is not very good.
This time, although there were male lions going to fight, they returned without success. It is also very helpless for three adult lions to hunt together and catch nothing. After all, it is the dry season and it is very difficult to catch large prey.
In fact, the male lion Jike should not hunt with the two lionesses today. If there were just two lionesses hunting together, they might have something to gain today.
Lisa saw an adult warthog while they were out hunting. It wants to hunt with Lisa and the lion Jike.
But at this time, the male lion Jike discovered a lone buffalo. It felt that this buffalo was an old buffalo.
If their pride could capture this old buffalo, the entire pride could live without worries for several days.
So, the male lion Jike decided to abandon the adult warthog and hunt the adult buffalo.
Lisa listened to the idea of the male lion Jike. He also felt that if this old buffalo could be captured, it would indeed solve the food problem of the entire lion group for many days.
So, Lisa, Aisha and Jike went to hunt this old buffalo together. The three of them just thought, no matter what, they are three adult lions. One of them is a powerful lion.
With this combination of forces, it was possible for them to bring down this adult buffalo. Because the strength of an old adult buffalo is definitely not as strong as a young adult buffalo.
Just like that, Lisa, Aisha and Jike gave up on the adult warthog. In fact, if Jike and Lisa hadn't hunted the adult warthog with Elsa, they would have probably caught the adult warthog.
But Jike made a wrong decision and it felt very awesome. Since it was the lion king who came to hunt in person, of course he had to choose a big guy.
So, Jike, Lisa and Aisha hunted the old buffalo together. Originally, Jike thought that this old buffalo might not be a match for their three adult lions. These three adult lions can definitely bring down this buffalo.
But the result was not as Jike imagined. This buffalo was not only very strong. The key is that at the last moment, it got help from its own herd.
The strong buffalo leader led the herd to save the old buffalo. This is also very abnormal. Under normal circumstances, when a buffalo gets old, it will live alone until it is preyed on by other predators, which is the end of its life.
Although this buffalo has left the group. But for some reason, after the buffalo leader heard the cry of the old buffalo, he ran over with the herd again.
Originally, Jike, Lisa, and Aisha were about to succeed. As long as other buffaloes didn't come over, they could kill the old buffalo, have a full meal, and take it back to the little lions. Lots of food.
But when the strong buffalo leader led the herd back to save the old buffalo, Najik, Lisa and Aisha had no choice but to give up the delicious food they had obtained.
In this way, Jike, Lisa and Aisha got nothing from this hunting. If they hunted the adult warthog from the beginning, they might even be able to catch an adult warthog.
An adult warthog weighs more than 100 pounds. If the Jik lion pride catches this adult warthog, the entire pride will almost be able to eat some pork. Although I can't eat everything, at least it's better than being hungry now.
It's just that now Jike, Lisa and Aisha have been working in vain for a while, leading Lisa and Aisha, and they are all panting from exhaustion. But in the end, all the efforts were in vain, and the old buffalo returned to the herd.
Jike, Lisa, and Aisha couldn't understand this phenomenon. It stands to reason that after an old buffalo leaves the herd, it will not return to the herd. But there is something strange about this buffalo.
Perhaps this buffalo is not particularly old yet and the herd is still willing to accept it. So, after being attacked by three lions, it returned to the herd.
At this time, the weather had begun to get hot, and Jike, Lisa, and Aisha had no choice but to go home. Because when the temperature rises, they can no longer hunt.
But when Jike, Lisa, and Aisha returned to the pride of lions, they saw the little lions fighting for food.
Chu Ye was already full. He didn't go over to fight for it. He just lay on the side and watched the other little lions fighting for the meat of the wild dog.
These little lions were also very hungry. They all came together to fight for the meat of the wild dog, and soon the wild dog was eaten until only a skeleton was left.
But at this moment, the male lion Jike and the two lionesses came back.
When Jike saw the lion cubs fighting for food, he immediately became excited. So, it hurried over and snatched the body of the wild dog.
But at this time, there was not much meat on the body of this wild dog, that is, only a skeleton was left.
But even so, Jike still wants to monopolize this wild dog skeleton.
But Lisa and Elsa were also very hungry. If the male lions hadn't fought for food, the two of them might not have fought for the children's food.
However, now that the lion Jike went directly to compete for the children's food, Lisa and Aisha were naturally not polite.
Lisa and Elsa immediately went to fight for the food in the lion's mouth. They could give in to the lion cubs, but there was no need to give in to the father who didn't love his children.
Lisa and Elsa immediately went over and fought with the lions over the body of the wild dog.
Three adult lions fight over the carcass of a wild dog. This wild dog originally had some skeleton left. It was torn apart by three adult lions and soon fell apart.
Chu Ye lay on the side and watched three adult lions fighting for the skeleton of a wild dog. He also felt sad for these three adult lions in his heart. You know, they are adult lions, but now they can't hunt prey, and they want to eat the prey hunted by Chu Ye. All this makes Chu Ye worried about the future of this lion group.
'Damn it, this whole pride of lions has to be fed by my little lion, so how long can this whole pride of lions last? '
Chu Ye looked at the three adult lions who were still fighting for food. He was worried about the future of the pride.
The three adult lions each got some wild dog skeletons and started eating them. Although they were just some skeletons with not much meat on them, they still felt very delicious to these three adult lions.
After all, these three adult lions have not eaten meat for several days. Now, no matter what kind of meat it is, it is a delicacy for them.
While Lisa was eating wild dog meat, she was thinking about where this wild dog came from. Could it be that the little lions went hunting on their own?
But Lisa also knew that among the lion cubs, only one was very powerful. The other lion cubs had been scared away when they saw wild dogs, so how could they hunt wild dogs.
'Could it be that Chu Ye, the little lion, went to hunt and kill another wild dog? '
Lisa already knew that Chu Ye was a very powerful little lion and had helped Jike defeat other stray lions before. Also, Chu Ye once fought with a group of wild dogs.
All of this made Lisa very concerned about Chu Ye, a little lion, and she always paid attention to its movements. It also felt strange and didn't understand why this little lion was so powerful.
Although Lisa did not see Chu Ye fighting with wild dogs, Lisa believed that Chu Ye was the only lion cub who could hunt wild dogs. Other little lions simply don't have this ability.
