Chapter 348: Fighting against the big crocodile
However, elephants are very intelligent animals and they are also social animals. When they cross the river, they will be like Chu Ye and others. Let the adult elephants surround the baby elephant in the middle, so that the entire pride will be safer.
However, even so, some bold crocodiles still want to attack these baby elephants. Because although the baby elephants are small elephants, they are still relatively large animals, weighing several hundred kilograms. As long as a baby elephant is caught, it will be a feast for the crocodile.
So, a big crocodile boldly came to the elephants and wanted to sneak attack the baby elephants in the herd. Of course, even the big crocodile knows that adult elephants are difficult to deal with, and it does not dare to attack adult elephants at all.
This big crocodile wants to attack the baby elephants in the herd, but these baby elephants are surrounded by adult elephants. It is of course very difficult to attack.
This is in the water, though. Crocodiles are very powerful in the water. They appear very clumsy on land, but once in the water, they are very flexible.
This big crocodile saw that the elephants were surrounded by the little elephants, so it was hard for him to take action. So, it thought of a good way. It dived into the water, and then got into the circle of elephants from under the bellies of some elephants.
The elephants were just watching what was happening on the river, not knowing that a big crocodile would sneak up on their little elephants from under the water. When a large crocodile got into the circle of elephants, the adult elephants didn't notice it at all.
However, a baby elephant suddenly stood there and could no longer swim, and its body began to sink. It also let out a scream of terror.
As soon as the adult elephants saw this, they knew that it had been bitten by a crocodile. So, they quickly came to the little elephant's side and stirred back and forth in the river with their long trunks. Soon, the long trunk of an elephant touched the crocodile that was sneaking up under the water.
This adult elephant was very angry. It used its long trunk to wrap up the big crocodile. With a little more effort, he lifted it up from the river.
Even so, the big crocodile still bit the little elephant's hind leg and refused to let go. It seems that it is really hungry. Even if it is attacked by the elephant, it is still unwilling to let the baby go.
However, when the elephant picked up the big crocodile from the water, it had to let go. Because baby elephants also weigh hundreds of kilograms. The big crocodile bit the little elephant and when the elephant picked it up, the little elephant struggled to break away from the big crocodile's bite.
At this time, the big crocodile was dumbfounded. It let the adult elephant pick it up with its long trunk. Then, the elephant swung it hard and threw the big crocodile seven or eight meters away. This big crocodile fell heavily to the river.
However, the crocodile has rough skin and thick flesh, and is very strong. Even if the elephant is thrown to the river seven or eight meters away, it will not cause any serious harm to the crocodile.
However, the elephant's behavior just now frightened the big crocodile, and it did not dare to attack the elephant again.
Although the baby elephant was saved, its hind legs were also injured. The whole hind legs were covered with blood, as if the big crocodile had bitten off a piece of meat.
The elephants felt that there was danger below the river surface, so they began to stir the water with their long trunks back and forth on the nearby river surface to see if there were any crocodiles that would attack the baby elephants from below.
Fortunately, there is only one crocodile that dares to do that. When other crocodiles see elephants, such giant animals, they will still stay away.
And Chu Ye's side is not peaceful now either. Although Chu Ye also thought of letting the lionesses surround the baby elephants and let the lionesses protect these little lions.
However, crocodiles will also attack those lion cubs from the bottom of the water. While Chu Ye and Maomao were still clearing the way ahead, two large crocodiles entered the circle surrounded by the lionesses from the bottom of the water.
These lionesses, like the elephants, did not expect the cunning crocodiles to attack their cubs from the bottom of the water at first. They just paid attention to the movements above the river.
By this time, they had already swam to the middle of the river. The water here is relatively deep, but it is only about one meter deep. It cannot submerge an adult lion at all, but it can submerge a young lion.
The two big crocodiles got into the circle surrounded by the lionesses from the bottom of the water, and they attacked the two lion cubs respectively. They bit the hind legs of the two lion cubs respectively, trying to drag them under the water.
Fortunately, the two little lions sensed danger after being dragged into the water, so they both roared. As soon as the lionesses saw what the two cubs were doing, they immediately went to rescue them.
Chu Ye and Maomao just paid attention to the movement on the river in front, and did not expect that danger would come from under the water.
Two little lions and two big crocodiles bit their hind legs. Their roars made the lionesses panic and they all wanted to rescue them.
However, the power of lionesses in the water cannot compete with the giant crocodiles. From this point of view, the fate of these two little lions at this time is much more dangerous than that of the two little elephants.
Because the baby elephant itself is a big guy weighing hundreds of kilograms, it is not easy for the crocodiles to capture the baby elephant. Also, adult elephants are giants weighing several tons. As long as they want to rescue the baby elephants, the crocodiles will not dare to compete with them.
However, lionesses only weigh about 150 kilograms. They may weigh less than a small elephant. If they were on land, lionesses would be considered the kings of beasts, and they were very powerful. But in the water, the lionesses seemed a little vulnerable in front of the equally heavy crocodiles.
However, faced with two little elephants being attacked by a sneak attack, the lionesses would certainly not remain indifferent. Of course, they would also have to find a way to rescue the two little elephants.
So, several female lions came to the two little lions, and they began to use their front paws to catch the big crocodile at the bottom of the water.
However, the big crocodiles didn't pay attention to the lionesses at all. They just bit the little lion and wouldn't let go. The lionesses can only act as a harasser and cannot drive away the big crocodiles.
Because the big crocodiles are underwater, the lionesses can't see them at all. They can only rely on their senses and use their claws to harass these big crocodiles. The big crocodiles just wanted to eat the two little lions. They bit the little lions' hind legs tightly and were not willing to let go.
