Chapter 354 The Cunning Hyena Queen
Therefore, the hyena family is a small society with strict hierarchy and complex structure. In this society, there is a strict hierarchy, and the hyena queen has the final say in all life and hunting matters.
The lion family does not have a strict hierarchy, it is just that the male lions enjoy some privileges. All other lionesses are equal. Even the cubs of lionesses will be cared for by all the lionesses in the pride. Regardless of which cub the lioness gave birth to, in the eyes of other lionesses, it is the same as the cub she gave birth to.
Hyena is a very powerful animal. Despite its small size, it is considered a tyrant on the African savannah. It can be said that except for lions, the king of beasts, you don't need to take hyenas seriously, other animals are somewhat afraid of hyenas.
In fact, even the king of beasts like the lion is not afraid of hyenas. It can be said that there is only one animal that truly scares hyenas, and that is an adult male lion.
In fact, even a female lion is nothing in the eyes of a hyena. If a large group of female lions did not unite, the hyenas would not take a single female lion or three or two female lions seriously.
Hyenas usually run away when they see a male lion, but they generally don't when they see a female lion. On the other hand, on the African savannah, the only animals that dare to compete head-on with hyenas are powerful predators like lions.
Predators like leopards and cheetahs will generally choose to run away when they see a hyena, and are unwilling to argue with the hyena.
Of course, this is mainly because animals like cheetahs and leopards are basically loners on the savannah. Hyenas often come out in groups.
Therefore, when leopards and cheetahs encounter hyenas, they usually have no choice but to run away. Because when they face a group of hyenas, they have no qualifications to compete with others.
The reason why hyenas are called Africa's second brother is because they are the most powerful animals on the African savannah after lions.
Only despicable and powerful animals like hyenas would dare to sneak attack a lion cub in a pride.
When Chu Ye and Maomao led the lions across the Grumedi River and came to the other side of the river to choose a new place to live, they never imagined that a group of hyenas would actually target their lions. Those little lions of the group.
The leader of this group of hyenas is called Lear. This is a female hyena with a strong body and rich fighting experience. The hyena group she leads has seventeen or eight adult hyenas and some small hyenas. It can be regarded as a very powerful hyena family.
Lier led his family of hyenas and successfully crossed the Grumedi River without losing a single hyena pup.
Of course, this is also because the little hyenas in the Lier family are also half a year old, almost half the size of adult hyenas, and they already have the ability to swim. After all, hyenas are not good at climbing trees, but they are naturally good swimmers.
Even a half-year-old hyena has the ability to swim. So this time, Mir led his hyena family and successfully crossed the Grumedi River and reached the other side of the river.
It's just that the little hyena in the hyena family needs to eat every day. Although hyenas are despicable and shameless, they are definitely better than any other animal on the savannah in taking care of their children.
After the Leer family crossed the river, they were faced with the problem of finding food. At this time, Lier took a fancy to the little lions in the Chuye lion group.
Although these lion cubs were born in the dry season, the lion cubs in the Chuye pride will basically not go hungry. Therefore, the lion cubs in the entire pride are still chubby and very cute. .
These little lions are an irresistible temptation for the despicable hyenas like Lier. They will drool when they look at these little lions.
However, when Mir saw the two super powerful male lions Chu Ye and Maomao, he could only hide in the bushes and drool at the plump little lions.
However, Lear also knew that the male lions would not stay among the lions forever, they would definitely explore new territories. Now Chu Ye and Maomao went to open up new territories, which gave Lier a good opportunity to sneak attack on their pride.
Even though there are more than twenty female lions, Lear also knows that these female lions are also going to hunt, and they will not always be here to guard these little lions.
After Nika and Mira saw Chu Ye and Maomao leaving, they also had an exchange. The two decided to send out some lionesses to hunt, leaving some to look after the cubs.
In the end, Nika decided to lead seven or eight female lions to hunt, and let Mira lead more than ten female lions to take care of these little lions here.
Nika thought that if there were more than a dozen female lions taking care of these cubs, then there would be no problem. After all, a group of more than a dozen female lions is also a powerful group of lions. Other animals generally do not dare to invade a group of more than a dozen female lions.
So, Nika led seven or eight female lions to hunt, while Mira looked after the more than ten lion cubs at home. They both felt that this arrangement was very safe.
However, what neither Nika nor Mila expected was that while they were discussing things, there was a hateful hyena staring at them in the bushes. This hateful hyena is none other than Mira, the hyena queen.
Lear is very smart, and he already knows a lot about the living habits of the lions. It knows when to attack the lions to achieve success.
So, after Leer saw Nika leading seven or eight female lions away, he felt that an opportunity had come. Although Mira also led more than ten female lions to take care of these little lions.
However, for Leer, even if the number of lionesses is equal to the number of hyenas, the hyenas dare to compete with the lionesses.
It should be said that lionesses are much larger and heavier than hyenas. When the number of hyenas is equal to that of lionesses, they generally do not dare to attack the lionesses. Only when the number of lionesses is smaller than that of hyenas, the hyenas dare to compete with the lionesses.
However, it depends on the situation. If the lionesses have nothing to worry about, they will definitely not be afraid of hyenas that are as numerous as themselves.
However, when lionesses have many lion cubs around them and they need to protect them, they will feel a little worried when faced with hyenas that are as numerous as themselves.
This is because when the lionesses are fighting, if they still think about the safety of their cubs, they cannot go all out to fight the hyenas. In this case, it will seriously affect the combat effectiveness of the lionesses.
This is the case now, even though the lionesses outnumber the hyenas. But the task of the lionesses is not to compete with the hyenas, but to protect the lion cubs.
