Chapter 108 Three Cheetahs
If this were not the case, it would probably not be easy to defeat this oryx. Once the oryx has a chance to resist, it may be in danger.
After much thought, Chu Ye felt that he should be more careful. He must succeed in one attack, otherwise he may be in danger.
Thinking of this, Chu Ye adjusted the angle of attack and slowly moved his lurking position. Before, he was lurking right in front of the oryx.
If he escapes from his previous position, he can pounce on the oryx's head in one fell swoop. If he's lucky, he can also bite the oryx's neck.
But if you do that, you will probably run a lot of risk. Because if Chu Ye wants to bite the oryx's neck from the front, he must bite the oryx's neck immediately when it raises its head.
But such opportunities are not easy to grasp. If you are not careful and let the oryx use its long horns to prick it, it may be very fatal.
'I still have to change my position. I should bite the oryx's neck from the side. '
Chu Ye went back and forth in his mind on several plans for hunting the oryx. Finally, he decided to change his position and attack the oryx from the side.
After thinking of this plan, Chu Ye changed his position again. Then he lurked in a bush nearby.
When Chu Ye lurked in the bushes nearby again, the oryx slowly ate grass and approached Chu Ye.
At first, this oryx did not notice any unsafe factors around it. Now it suddenly felt something was wrong.
This is an adult male oryx. From the looks of it, he probably belongs to the kind of wandering male oryx who never became the oryx king. It may have always been about living alone. When it saw a piece of green grass in this place, it came over to eat.
When Chu Ye was at his original position just now, this oryx didn't feel anything was wrong. Because the location where Chu Ye was just now was downwind. The aura on Chu Ye's body was not smelled by this oryx due to the direction of the wind.
But when Chu Ye changed positions again, it was different. Because at this time, Chu Ye was in the upper wind. When Chu Ye's scent came out, he let this oryx smell it.
This oryx felt something was wrong and wanted to run away.
When Chu Ye took a look, he felt that this oryx might have discovered him. He couldn't wait any longer and had to start attacking.
Chu Ye saw the opportunity and suddenly sprang out from the bushes. He immediately pounced on the oryx. Then he bit the oryx's neck in one bite.
This oryx was originally aware of the danger, it had smelled the lion's scent. I wanted to run away immediately. But at this moment, Chu Ye suddenly jumped out of the bushes.
This oryx wanted to run away, but it was too late. Chu Ye immediately pounced on the oryx and bit its neck.
When Chu Ye bit the oryx's neck, he was very happy. I feel like I have succeeded in hunting this time.
'Haha, everything is as I thought. The plan I designed still works very well. I succeeded in hunting. '
When Chu Ye bit the oryx's neck, he felt that he had subdued the oryx and he was just waiting to eat the mutton.
But the development of things was not as Chu Ye thought. When this oryx saw that a lion suddenly bit its neck, it was in instinctive fear and fear, which caused it to generate a powerful explosive force.
Chu Ye was also a little careless. He felt that the overall situation was certain and that he was sure of victory. This oryx was about to become his prey.
But the sudden explosive power of this oryx is still very amazing. When this oryx let Chu Ye bite its neck, it suddenly used its hind legs and jumped up.
Although Chu Ye also weighed more than 100 kilograms, under the influence of the powerful explosion of the oryx, he was unable to control the body of the oryx and allowed the oryx to break free.
When Chu Ye saw that he had no control over the oryx, he let it break free. He quickly jumped aside.
Because Chu Ye was afraid that he would not be able to subdue this oryx all at once, giving this oryx an opportunity to resist.
Therefore, when Chu Ye saw the oryx breaking free, he quickly jumped to the side. Only in this way can the oryx's pointed horns not be harmed.
But when Chu Ye dodged like this, the oryx seized the opportunity, and it immediately turned around and ran away.
This time, it was beyond Chu Ye's expectation. He originally thought that if the oryx broke free, it might attack him.
After all, when herbivores are in close contact with carnivores, they will never be helpless, and they will definitely work hard to resist. Even some herbivores will actively attack carnivores when they have no way out.
Chu Ye originally thought that after the oryx broke free from its control, it would definitely turn around and attack him, but things were not as Chu Ye thought. The elder brother of the oryx did not attack directly. Chu Ye chose to escape instead.
After all, Chu Ye is a lion like an adult lion, although Chu Ye knows that he is still a little lion. But in the eyes of the swordsman brother, Chu Ye is already an adult lion.
When animals like oryx encounter a lion, if they are not forced and have no way out, they will generally choose to run away instead of attacking the lion.
This was the case with this oryx. After it broke free from Chu Ye's control, it ran away quickly and did not dare to attack Chu Ye at all.
After Chu Ye saw the oryx running away, he quickly started to chase it.
But at this time, to be honest, it has no meaning anymore.
Because the oryx runs very fast, an adult lion may not be able to catch up with the oryx running at full speed.
Also, for prey with special weapons like the sword antelope, it would be very dangerous if a predator could not lock the throat of the sword antelope at once.
Generally speaking, carnivores must adopt a sneak attack when hunting oryx. If it is not a sneak attack, but a direct attack, it will be very dangerous.
Chu Ye now thought that it would not make much sense if he directly pursued the oryx. First of all, Chu Ye may not be able to catch up with the Oryx.
Also, even if Chu Ye catches up with the oryx, it will be difficult for Chu Ye to deal with this oryx when it faces Chu Ye directly when the oryx is completely on guard.
Therefore, when Chu Ye watched the oryx run away, he did not pursue it and allowed the oryx to disappear into the grass in the distance.
But Chu Ye felt a little unwilling, and wanted to see where the oryx had gone.
So, Chu Ye immediately climbed to a big tree nearby, wanting to see where the oryx had fled to.
But when Chu Ye climbed up the big tree, he saw the oryx, which had already run out for more than a hundred meters.
'Fuck, this oryx runs really fast. I'm giving you an advantage today. If I see you again that day, I will definitely catch you.' '
Seeing that the oryx had run far away, Chu Ye felt that this oryx was lucky today. Of course he was very lucky that he didn't catch this very powerful little lion.
This oryx may have thought the same thing. After it ran out for more than a hundred meters, it looked back. When it sees that there are no predators behind it, it slows down.
'Hmph, you, a lion, still want to hunt down my oryx, don't you think about it, are our oryx so easy to hunt? Today, I didn't attack you with my horns, you are lucky. If you don't come after me, you have made a wise choice. '
When this oryx saw that Chu Ye didn't dare to chase it, it naturally felt that it was awesome. It felt that Chu Ye was afraid of the horns on its head, so he didn't dare to chase it.
So, this oryx began to graze leisurely on the grass again. It felt that it was lucky today and had escaped a sneak attack by a lion, so nothing would happen to it again.
But just as Chu Ye was thinking wildly while watching the oryx that had run away, three cheetahs suddenly jumped out of the grass next to the oryx.
The three cheetahs immediately surrounded the oryx.
This oryx may also be a little surprised. It never expected that it would enter the wolf's den as soon as it escaped from the tiger's mouth.
Three cheetahs surrounded this oryx. But they didn't start attacking immediately, they were just in a confrontation with this oryx.
When Chu Ye saw that his prey was now the prey of three cheetahs, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Chu Ye also knew very much about animals like cheetahs. The cheetah can be said to be a very famous animal. Many people may have heard of cheetahs, but many people actually don’t know much about cheetahs.
Cheetah: Also known as the Indian leopard, it is an animal in the genus Cheetah of the cat family and the only species in the genus Cheetah. Cheetahs have black spots all over their bodies.
There is a black stripe from the corner of the mouth to the corner of the eye, and there is a black ring pattern at the end of one third of the tail; the hair on the back of the neck is relatively long, like a very short mane, and the body is slender, with long legs and a small head.
Inhabits temperate and tropical grasslands, deserts and savannahs with sparse trees. Cheetahs are carnivores whose main food is various antelopes. They only hunt one prey at a time and run extremely fast. The life span of cheetahs in the wild is generally 15 years. They are mainly distributed in Africa and other places, and there are three existing subspecies.
The trunk length of a cheetah is 1 meter to 1.5 meters, the tail length is 0.6 meters to 0.8 meters, the shoulder height is 0.7 to 0.9 meters, and the weight is generally 35 to 72 kilograms. Male cheetahs are slightly larger than female cheetahs. The color of the back is light yellow, and the color of the belly is lighter, usually white.
Cheetah in English means spotted. Cheetahs have black spots all over their bodies. There is a black stripe from the corner of the mouth to the corner of the eye. This feature can be used to distinguish cheetahs from leopards. These two black stripes are beneficial to absorbing sunlight, thus making the field of vision wider.
There is a black ring pattern on the end third of the cheetah's tail; the hair on the back of the neck is relatively long, like a short mane. Its body shape is slender, its legs are long, its head is small, its ears are short, and its pupils are round. Because the cheetah has this streamlined body shape, it looks very light when running.
In addition, the cheetah's spine is very soft. Whether it is standing or running, the outline of its body is like a bronze work. Cheetahs' teeth are very sharp, but smaller than those of other big cats.
The legs are long, the body is thin, the spine is very soft and easy to bend, like a big spring. When running, the forelimbs and hind limbs are exerting force, and the body also rises and falls together during running; when turning sharply, the big tail can rise It plays a role in balancing so as not to fall. The special structure of the body allows the cheetah to run extremely fast.
The life of a cheetah is relatively regular, usually working at sunrise and resting at sunset. It usually starts to look for food around five o'clock in the morning. It is more alert when walking, stopping from time to time to look around to see if there is any prey that can be eaten.
On the other hand, it also prevents other beasts from preying on it. It usually rests at noon. When taking a nap, it gets up every 6 minutes to check to see if there are any dangers around it.
Generally speaking, cheetahs only hunt one prey at a time, and the distance they walk every day is about five kilometers, and the maximum is more than ten kilometers. Although it is good at running, it does not travel very far.
The cheetah is the fastest land animal in the world, with a speed of up to 115 kilometers per hour. If a human sprint world champion competes with a cheetah in a 100-meter race, the cheetah can let the world champion run 60 meters first, and it will be the cheetah that reaches the finish line, not the sprint world champion.
But it should be noted that since the cheetah runs so fast, it is a test for the respiratory and circulatory systems of its entire body. When its running speed reaches more than 115 kilometers, its respiratory and circulatory systems are overloaded.
Because the cheetah cannot expel the accumulated heat at once and is prone to symptoms of collapse, so the cheetah can generally only sprint a few hundred meters before it slows down. Otherwise, its body will overheat and collapse will occur.
So this kind of running is very debilitating. Sometimes the cheetah catches the prey because it ran too fast just now, so it can't eat at that time. It has to take a rest or catch its breath before it can start eating.
In nature, cheetahs are often defeated by larger cats, such as lions, or may be killed and eaten by lions. The survival rate of leopard cubs is very low. Two-thirds of them are killed by lions, hyenas, etc. or starve to death due to lack of food before they are one year old.
