Chapter 328: The Rules of the Elephant Group
If Chu Ye wants to maintain the life of the entire lion group, he must choose some large prey to kill. Only in this way can the entire pride of lions live a life without worries about food and clothing.
The lionesses went out to hunt again, but they were not very hungry. They just had a full meal yesterday, so even if they went out to hunt, they would not be particularly interested.
Chu Ye went to the east side of the territory to patrol alone. Because there are always various animals living there in the east. If Chu Ye didn't patrol his territory frequently, he would let some stray male lions run into their territory to hunt prey on their territory.
So, Chu Ye walked to the east of his territory to see if there were any stray lions invading their territory.
For a male lion who has become a lion king, their daily task is to patrol the boundaries of their territory. If they encounter male lions that dare to invade their territory, they will drive them away.
However, after Chu Ye's size changed into the huge male lion that weighed more than 400 kilograms, there were almost no signs of stray male activities near its territory.
Because no stray lion dared to compete for Chu Ye's 'throne'. Not to mention that a stray lion didn't dare to compete, even a team of three or five stray lions didn't dare to compete with Chu Ye.
Therefore, every time Chu Ye came out to inspect his territory, he felt that his territory was very peaceful, and there was no trace of other wandering lions at all.
It was the same this time. When Chu Ye came to the east of his territory, he didn't see the shadow of other wandering lions. Only a few elephants were grazing leisurely in their territory.
Elephants are also gregarious animals, and they usually live in groups of more than a dozen. Among them, there is a female elephant as their leader. However, there is also a male elephant who can be regarded as their leader. However, in the daily life of elephants, it is the female elephant leader who manages the life of the entire elephant herd.
Chu Ye came to a big tree. He looked at a group of elephants not far away, and he was still thinking that if he could hunt an elephant, he could feed the entire lion group.
But Chu Ye also knew that hunting elephants was very risky. If the lionesses of the entire pride were not united, Chu Ye alone might not be able to defeat the leader of the elephant group.
'Forget it, I won't hunt these elephants anymore, just look at them here first. As long as they live in their own territory, they still have the opportunity to hunt them. '
Although Chu Ye doesn't want to hunt these elephants for the time being, he still hopes that these elephants will always live in their territory. Only in this way will Chu Ye feel that his life is relatively stable, because with these elephants, he will always feel that his territory is still full of life.
Chu Ye didn't feel hungry now, so he walked under a big tree. Under this big tree, there is also a protruding boulder.
Seeing such a rectangular boulder, Chu Ye wanted to lie down on it and take a rest. After all, a lion’s favorite thing to do after eating is to rest on a boulder.
So Chu Ye climbed up to the boulder to rest. Lying on the boulder, he could clearly see the group of elephants eating leaves on the grass in front of him.
Watching these giant prey eating food leisurely on the grass, Chu Ye felt that there was a vibrant scene in front of him.
However, if there is no change in this kind of picture, it will also feel a bit boring. After watching it for a while, Chu Ye felt that it was no longer interesting and wanted to lie down on the boulder to rest.
But at this moment, he suddenly heard an elephant roaring. It seemed like there was a fight between the elephants.
So Chu Ye looked up at the group of elephants again. When he saw it, he was a little surprised. Because he saw two elephants, and they seemed to be fighting.
'Hey, what's going on? Are there two male elephants vying for the position of leader? '
Generally speaking, if there are two male elephants fighting in a herd, they are probably fighting for the position of leader. Because they generally don't fight over other things. Elephants are originally relatively docile animals and do not like to fight together when nothing happens.
However, when Chu Ye took a closer look, he felt something was not right again. Because the two elephants are different in size, one is very tall and the other is obviously smaller.
Although these two elephants are both male elephants, their strength is obviously not on the same level. If a fight breaks out, the smaller elephant will definitely be defeated by the larger elephant.
'Hey! It's really strange, how dare this little bull elephant challenge the big bull elephant! Chu Ye was a little puzzled for a moment. He felt that this little male elephant should not challenge the big male elephant.
Sure enough, the little bull elephant was quickly defeated by the big bull elephant.
This little male elephant howled and ran towards the bushes in the distance. The big bull elephant also chased for a while. When the little bull elephant disappeared into the bushes, the big bull elephant returned to the herd.
Chu Ye didn't understand what was going on at first, but after thinking for a while, he suddenly understood what was going on.
'Oh, I was wrong. This little bull elephant and that big bull elephant are obviously not competing for the leadership position. This little bull elephant must have reached the age of leaving the herd, so the leader of the bull elephant wanted to drive this little bull elephant away. '
Chu Ye thought for a moment and understood what all this was about.
It is understandable that the young male elephant is unwilling to leave the herd. After all, it has lived in this herd for many years, so how could it be willing to leave the herd!
So the little bull elephant started fighting with the big bull elephant. However, the little bull elephant was no match for the big bull elephant. After three or two rounds, the big bull elephant defeated the little bull elephant and drove it away.
There are rules in the life of the elephant herd. This rule is that when a young male elephant reaches sub-adult age, he will be driven out of the herd by the male elephant leader and then join the team of wandering male elephants.
This is very similar to the life of a pride of lions. When the young male lions in the pride reach two years old, the male lions will be expelled from the pride. Then these young male lions can only join the ranks of stray male lions to continue their lives.
Elephants are very similar to lions in this regard. After all, whether they are elephants or lions, they are the 'kings' of the savannah. They all live in groups, so they naturally have many similarities in their lifestyles.
