Chapter 854 The Angry Cheetah

The sun shines on the pure white plastic bag, and you can faintly see the blood inside.

Bifang's eyes look through the iron net and look at the weight of the cheetah.

"Cheetahs are carnivorous cats and the only species under the genus Cheetah. There are 5 subspecies and one variant."

"The largest is the North African subspecies. Adult males weigh 29-71 kg, with an average weight of 45 kg, and adult females weigh 21-63 kg, with an average weight of 38 kg."

"The adult weight of the other 4 subspecies is generally below 35 kg. Because of its similar appearance to leopards and its particularly fast running speed, it is called cheetah."

"The Kenyan area belongs to South Africa. Harley, who was rescued by the staff here, is also a South African subspecies. It usually weighs only about 35 to 45 kg. Harley is still a sub-adult, weighing about 30 to 40. I estimate it to be about 33."

The chain was pulled out, making a rattling sound.

The staff member next to him was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously said: "The physical examination the day before yesterday was 35 kilograms, but the weight measurement of animals is not very accurate. Now that they haven't eaten, 33 is about the same. You are really amazing. You can see this."

Animals are different from humans. They don't wear clothes. It is not impossible to judge the size of animals at a glance.

But this is not something that can be done casually. It is impossible without a sophisticated eye and rich experience. At the same time, it is necessary to have a certain degree of familiarity with the species, just like an experienced butcher can cut the exact weight with one knife.

In the impression of the staff, only a few old professors who specialize in cheetahs can do it.

Besides, carnivores in nature are different from humans. They can eat several kilograms of food in one meal to ensure that they will not starve to death if there is no prey in the next few days. Therefore, when to measure the weight also makes a big difference. Bifang's judgment is only less than two kilograms, or even around one kilogram, which shows his experience.

"A 30-kilogram cheetah has very limited threat. We can treat it as a big cat."

[Big cat (covering face)]

[I want to pet such a big cat, too]

[Only Fang Shen can say this. Last time I saw a buddy being chased by a local dog. It seemed smaller than Harley.]

The killing power of cats is indeed strong, but the size is a mountain that all creatures in nature cannot get around. It is not something that can be overcome with a simple body structure.

30 kilograms is less than 40% of Bifang's weight.

Therefore, Bifang was not as nervous as the audience thought about contacting a completely unfamiliar cheetah. Instead, he was very calm.

He has fought a 300-kilogram brown bear, even with bare hands, so how could he be afraid of a 30-kilogram cheetah?

But for cheetahs, it is not the same.

The sound of the sliding chain startled Harley, who turned his head and then a tall and strong "giant" walked in. His exposed forearms were like twisted steel cables, covered with powerful curves.

If that were the case, it would be fine. There are many such two-legged apes in the conservation center.

But the terrifying thing is that the momentum of the two-legged ape in front of him is completely different from what Harley has seen before!

Completely different!

Completely different!

It feels like seeing a natural enemy, a predator that is far more ferocious than himself appears in front of him!

After a few seconds of downtime, Harley's little brain immediately sounded an alarm!

His golden hair exploded uncontrollably. Under the advance of Bifang, Harley retreated to the corner little by little, without the elegance and domineering of the previous king of speed.

Such a posture made the staff and spectators on the side confused.

[Oh my god, what's going on]

[Did Fangshen scare the cheetah like this (dog head)]

[I'm calling him an expert, just like my cat seeing a dog]

"Harley doesn't usually do this?" The staff laughed awkwardly and tried to call Harley over.

Bifang thought about it and roughly understood the reason. He couldn't help but feel funny and squatted down to reduce his height and reduce the threat.

"Animals are naturally afraid of larger and stranger creatures. This is normal. We can squat down and close our limbs to reduce our "body size" and show a side that makes it easier for animals to relax their vigilance."

As expected, after Bifang squatted down, the audience in front of the screen found that the golden hair on the cheetah's body shrank a lot.

The temperament did not change, but the reduction in body size made the cheetah feel a little relaxed.

The squatting Bifang slowly approached the cheetah's food bowl, untied the bag, poured out the bloody sheep entrails in front of Harley, and then slowly backed away.

Because Harley was too wary of him, Bifang retreated to the corner of the cage and asked the staff to call Harley to eat.

Bifang's distance, late lunch, and the familiar staff beside him, although Harley was still afraid, with the help of his stomach, he slowly walked over, faced Bifang, and ate in the most conservative manner.

"You go out first, and then lock the door."

"Do you need some safety measures?"

"No."

Bifang shook his head and then said to the audience, "It's actually very simple to make an animal familiar and close to you as soon as possible. First, let it adapt to your presence in space and close the distance little by little."

"This is an active and passive two-way process. On the active side, you have to strive to use resources to let the target take the initiative to approach you, just like many people use sausages to lure kittens towards you. Even if the kitten runs away with it in its mouth, it is still a problem. This kind of progress will make it realize that there is no danger in doing so.”

"At the same time, we need to add some passivity to speed up the process. For example, we are in the same cage now. Although Harley doesn't seem to be very willing, he still acquiesces. This is building up his psychological expectations."

【pua, right】

【What are you barking at? ? How can it be pua about Fang Shen?】

[It is indeed the same as raising wild dogs and wild cats]

[What’s special, I’ve been feeding the stray cat downstairs for a month, and now I’m not allowed to touch it. I really want it to vomit out all the canned food it has eaten. 】

Harley dragged the food bowl to the corner and chewed.

The drone approached quietly and clearly recorded the appearance and sound of its eating. The collision of teeth and internal organs made a unique sticky sound.

[Speaking of which, do animals like to eat their internal organs? 】

[Why do I remember that Fang Shen throws away the internal organs every time? 】

Bi Fang shook his head.

"You remember wrongly, the internal organs I throw away every time are the intestines and some pancreatic tissue, similar to the heart, liver, etc., which are all preserved."

"In fact, most predators will preferentially eat parts of their prey's organs, especially the liver, when food is abundant."

"For example, in the season when there are more herbivores and it is easier to hunt, some lions will habitually start eating from the crotch or lower abdomen of the prey. The first things eaten are often the internal organs of the prey, and the remaining muscles, Leave the skin and bones to the hyenas and vultures.”

"There is currently no clear explanation for the cause of this dietary preference. Scientists speculate that this may be because animal offal is more convenient to eat. Bone protection is avoided to the greatest extent, and the texture is softer than muscle, and the nutrition is relatively rich. ”

"Because organs such as the liver are high in fat, they are also rich in vitamins that animals urgently need. This is just like the Inuit people who rely on raw food to supplement vitamin C, as I have said before."

"Similar to the lion is the brown bear."

"Every year, the salmon breeding season is a carnival holiday for brown bears. After catching salmon traveling upstream on the river beach, the brown bears will eat the fish skin and eggs, and most of the rest will be discarded to various water birds."

"This habit is because there are too many salmon at this time and they are too easy to prey on. However, this golden hunting period only lasts a few days. Brown bears only eat the skin and eggs with the highest fat content, and then turn around to catch them. The next fish can accumulate fat and nutrients most efficiently so that it can survive a warm winter. "

"In addition, killer whales also prefer shark livers. On the one hand, this is because shark livers are relatively large and have high fat content. On the other hand, although sharks have no hard bones, their skin is extremely tough. Eating other parts is not good for tigers. The whale’s teeth are too worn.”

"Orcas are mammals, and their teeth are limited just like humans. Once broken, they cannot grow again like sharks. Old killer whales often starve to death because they cannot tear open fish skins to eat."

"Some scholars even believe that the young killer whales in the group will complete the work of hunting, and the old killer whales only need to come up to eat the fish liver, because for the old killer whales with poor teeth, tender fish liver The ingredients can be chewed.”

Bi Fang, who has reached the highest level of Wilderness Traveler, only picked up these animals at random. His mind was full of similar examples, and he didn't finish them all until the cheetah finished eating.

After lunch, Harley seemed a little unsatisfied because he found that the portion of food today was significantly smaller than before.

"I didn't bring much food this time. The purpose is to increase the frequency of feeding. Through a small amount and many times, I can quickly get Harley used to my presence and continuously strengthen the impression."

The feeding cycle that Bifang prepared for Harley was once every three hours, with a small amount of internal organs each time, and at the same time, the companionship time was extended.

In the cage, Harley stared at Bifang after eating, pacing repeatedly against the edge of the cage until Bifang stood up and then quickly shrank to a corner. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Bifang leave.

"Okay, I will start the live broadcast again at four o'clock. Oh, I almost forgot about the time difference. Everyone's time is different. In fact, it will start three hours later."

"Don't worry, because our live broadcast has not actually started. In two days, when Harley becomes familiar with my existence, I will keep the live broadcast on throughout the day."

After retying the chain, Bi Fang explained, turned off the live broadcast, and put the cage key into his pocket.

The first time the staff was required to help with the "recommendation", it was to dispel Harley's vigilance to the greatest extent. This was not required for the next few times. For this reason, the staff directly gave the key to Bifang.

Returning to the room reserved in the protection center, Bi Fang opened the system and began to edit this time's mission.

In the rush this time, I almost forgot to arrange the system tasks.

When completing the task belongs to the task content, the complete system tasks will automatically appear, and the rewards, difficulty, and requirements will be clear at a glance.

[Task name: Heart of Nature]

[Mission Location: African Savannah]

[Mission Mode: Time Travel Survival]

[Task Difficulty: T1]

[Task requirements: Only system equipment can be carried. 】

[Main mission 1: Set up a live broadcast, with more than 8 million people online at the same time. 】

[Main Mission 2: Help Cheetah Harley learn to hunt and integrate into the wilderness. ]

[Side Mission: Explore on your own. ]

[Guaranteed Reward: Level 2 permissions open, one redstone. ]

Bifang scanned the lines one by one, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw the last reward.

For the so-called editing task, as long as you enter the content, the system will automatically evaluate the difficulty and then give the reward.

Can the level 2 permissions be fully opened?

What does it mean?

Such a reward made Bifang couldn't help but think of his adventure after Qaidam. After that time, he got the permission to automatically edit tasks. What will it be this time?

Can even the rewards be edited by yourself?

And what is redstone and what is its function?

This time the difficulty reached T1, which should be the peak of the difficulty of the T series.

R, S, T.

Bifang has experienced three levels of difficulty, and he doesn't know what the next difficulty will be.

In Bifang's view, T1 seems to have reached the pinnacle of survival in the wilderness of the earth.

The African savannah is not as simple as it seems.

As far as Bifang knows, just last Thursday, the Kenyan Wildlife Guards encountered a team of poachers equipped with AK-47 rifles during a routine patrol in Mount Elgon National Park at the border between Kenya and Uzbekistan, and launched a fierce battle.

In the end, the guards killed three poachers, seized rifles and other poaching equipment, and two other poachers fled.

From a glimpse of the leopard, you can see how dangerous it is to lead a cheetah on the African savannah.

"Thinking too much is useless."

Bifang put away the panel, went to the window and looked at the open grassland, without any fear in his heart.

Bifang is not a person who will resist his fear.

Fear is not a flood or a beast.

It is the most basic instinct for organisms to perceive danger, a psychological mechanism preserved in evolution, a self-protection mechanism, which helps humans stay away from danger again and again and finally survive. It is rare and precious.

But if people who understand fear and know the danger can still face the difficulties, they can be promoted.

If you want to become stronger, do what you are afraid of.

Continuously expanding your understanding of the world is the foundation for individuals to become stronger.

At 4 p.m., Bifang reopened the live broadcast.

This time, more than five million viewers came in.

Bifang, like before, walked towards the cheetah with a bag of internal organs.

This time, the staff stood outside the iron net and did not accompany Bifang in.

Bifang poured the internal organs into the basin and squeezed out the blood in the plastic bag.

"Unlike at noon, this time I brought deer internal organs to the cheetah to change the taste, so that it can also strengthen Harley's memory of me."

Pufferfish toxin is fatal to humans, but after dolphins take it, it will only produce effects similar to marijuana. For this reason, dolphins will deliberately poke "pufferfish" because the toxins of pufferfish will make them very high.
