Chapter 447 White-tailed Monster
'But we are not in a magical place now. If this place is magical and mysterious, then there is nothing abnormal about having a horse. After hearing what Chu Ye said, the fat man defended himself again.
'Let's hide first and see who comes to our side. Could it be that there are still some humans living in this deep mountain canyon? Chu Ye said as he hid behind a big tree next to him.
After hearing what Chu Ye said, Fatty and Feifei naturally followed him.
The three of them are now hiding behind a huge tree, trying to see who is coming here. It's really strange that they are riding horses.
'Boss, are they Maasai people? Do they still live in such deep mountains and canyons? 'The fat man thought of the Maasai people before, so he said this.
'How is it possible? This place is not suitable for human habitation at all! 'Chu Ye felt that this place was filled with dense grass and tall trees that blocked the sky and sun above the head. It was completely unimaginable to live in such an environment.
'Dang! Bang! Bang! ---'
At this moment, there was another sound of hoofbeats, as if a tall horse was approaching from a distance.
Chu Ye, Fatty and Feifei all held their breath and stared at the grass in the distance with wide eyes.
Suddenly, a huge creature appeared in front of everyone. As soon as they saw this thing, everyone's eyes widened in surprise. After all, at first glance, this animal looks like a monster, not an ordinary animal at all.
Everyone saw that this animal was very large, almost as big as an elephant. The key is that there are two long, curved and sharp horns on its head.
This animal has some dark brown fur on its body, and some black manes on its neck. These manes are very long, about half a foot long, much longer than the fur on the body. The tail is very long, and the end of the tail is long hair like a broom.
When Chu Ye, Fatty and Feifei saw this monster, their eyes widened in surprise. After all, none of them had ever seen such a monster.
'Boss, what kind of monster is this? Why have I never seen it before? 'The fat man said looking at the monster in front of him.
Chu Ye also felt very strange. He didn't understand what kind of animal this animal was, and he couldn't explain it himself.
And this monster obviously doesn't know that there are several lions here. It seemed that it wanted to drink water. After coming from a distance, it walked towards the big puddle.
When this big monster passed in front of Chu Ye and the others, he saw its long tail. As soon as he saw the tail of this monster, Chu Ye suddenly thought of a magical animal.
Because the tail of this monster is white. Compared with its dark brown body, it looks extremely eye-catching. Although they also saw the tail of this monster just now. But I didn't see clearly what color its tail was. Because the monster just now was facing Chu Ye and the others, although they could see the monster's entire body clearly, they could not see clearly the tail behind the monster's butt.
Chu Ye knew a lot about the animals on the prairie. When he saw the tail of this monster, he suddenly thought of a magical animal on the prairie.
This animal is a rare animal living on the African savannah - the white-tailed wildebeest.
Although wildebeest is a very common animal on the African savannah, it is also the most numerous animal. However, this kind of white-tailed wildebeest is definitely a very rare species in the savannah. Although this animal lives on the African savannah, it cannot be seen casually.
Because this kind of animal only lives in a certain place on the savanna, which is the familiar Ngorongoro National Park. Therefore, this animal is a rare species on the African savannah and cannot be seen everywhere.
The white-tailed wildebeest weighs 110-57 kilograms, the male has a shoulder height of 111-121 centimeters, and the body length can reach 2 meters. The female is slightly smaller. Their coat color ranges from dark brown to black, with males being darker than females. The fur of both sexes becomes lighter in summer and becomes shaggy in winter.
Like the spotted wildebeest, the white-tailed wildebeest has a thick beard and mane. However, the white-tailed wildebeest's mane rises up from its neck rather than hanging down like the spotted wildebeest's mane.
These manes are cream to white in color and have black tips. The beard is black and extends only along the chin, not the length of the neck.
In addition, the white-tailed wildebeest has a patch of long, black hair between its front legs, covering its chest, and a patch of fluffy black hair on the bridge of its nose. The paired horns curve downward, forward, and then upward, like hooks, up to 78 cm long, with the female slightly thinner and shorter. The base of the corner is widened and flattened to form a protective shield.
This species is a selective short-grass grazer and inhabits the open plains grasslands and Karoo scrub of South Africa and Lesotho. The high and central plateau grasslands are characterized by flat to rolling plains and elevations ranging from 1 350-2, 150 meters in the mountains.
Originally, the white-tailed wildebeest inhabited alpine temperate grasslands during the dry winters and the dry tableland plateaus of South Africa during rainy days.
However, due to leather hunting in the 19th century, they live in protected hunting grounds in southern Africa. The white-tailed wildebeest lives in the grassland, similar to the spotted wildebeest's habitat, and is distributed freely.
However, the white-tailed wildebeest's coat is thicker and darker, and it can reach farther south than the Orange River inhabit, past the edge of the treeless savannah and into colder climate zones. They rarely seek shade and require little to no winter shelter.
Chu Ye also knows a lot about this kind of white-tailed wildebeest. However, the white-tailed wildebeest in front of me is obviously not an ordinary white-tailed wildebeest.
Because the ordinary white-tailed wildebeest only weighs more than 100 kilograms. But the white-tailed wildebeest in front of me weighs at least two tons. Obviously, this is a mutated white-tailed wildebeest, otherwise, it would not have grown so big.
Chu Ye had already recognized what kind of animal this monster was. He knew that the sound of horse hooves he heard just now was coming from this giant white-tailed wildebeest.
Fatty and Feifei felt a little scared when they saw such a huge monster walking past them. Although they are the kings of beasts. However, in this deep mountain canyon, their status as the king of beasts seems to be challenged.
This huge white-tailed wildebeest walked past them calmly, as if it didn't notice them at all. It went straight to the big puddle, ready to drink water.
