Chapter eight hundred and twenty first defeat(1/2)
Unfortunately, although the Egyptian cobra is powerful, its opponent is not easy to deal with. It is the boss of birds-the North African ostrich.
Birds are the envy of all people and animals who long to fly into the sky.
Birds are the only animals on earth that are truly qualified to fly freely.
But not all birds are excellent fliers, but just like the famous chicken soup essay, when God closes the door, he must open the window.
"The ostrich is the largest of all birds, but it is a pity that the ostrich only lives in Africa and its activity range is too narrow. Otherwise, it would definitely win the title of King of Birds."
"It's true that they can't fly, but their combat effectiveness on land is comparable to that of a leopard!"
Bi Fang huddled behind the rock, watching the confrontation between a bird and a snake, and before the fight broke out, he made a surprising statement.
The audience was in an uproar.
[Holy shit, is it real or fake? Leopard?]
[Fang Shen, are you kidding me? 】
[Wouldn’t this thing bury its head when it encounters danger? Scratching its head]
The ostrich has a big body and a thin neck, which is a huge weakness no matter how you look at it.
Think about the image of a leopard in your mind again. Is it possible that the neck will be broken in one bite?
How to fight?
In the eyes of most ordinary people, cats have always been the ceiling of combat power in the animal world. When Bi Fang said this, he couldn't accept it.
"You still don't understand. Leopards generally weigh between 100 and 200 kilograms, while ostriches can weigh more than 300 kilograms! This is already a big win."
Big means good, big means strong.
This sentence is not absolutely true in nature, but it is absolutely universal.
The height of an ostrich can reach 1.5 meters, which is equivalent to the height of a 14-year-old boy.
And its attack methods come from pecking at the rafters and long trampling and grabbing. In terms of hard power, the killing power of ostriches is no less than that of hyenas and wolves.
At the same time, despite the large weight of the ostrich, this guy's running speed is also the best in the animal world.
The fastest running speed can reach 70km/h. Only cheetahs, leopards, and gazelles can match the running speed of ostriches. Moreover, they can run so fast and their strength is not weak. The most important thing is that they can
Its pair of long legs can cause powerful damage to enemies.
In addition, ostriches have a strong personality and are often not provoked. They are a vengeful guy and will often quickly launch an offensive when threatened. This is different from wild animals such as antelopes and zebras, and is much stronger.
It can also be seen from this that the ostrich has its own strength to survive.
On the territory of Africa, in terms of combat effectiveness, even the younger lionesses are no match for the ostriches.
The ostrich's condescending posture puts a certain pressure on the fighting lion. Therefore, the ostrich is also a member of the top of the African food chain, and its strength cannot be underestimated.
Especially to reptiles and snakes, ostriches are god-like existences.
Because of this, as an omnivore, ostriches have a large number of reptiles in their diet, including snakes. However, it is relatively rare to actively deal with such a large cobra.
Bi Fang talked about some characteristics of ostriches at a very fast speed. Under the enumeration of various facts, the audience had to be doubtful.
After all, the distance was far away, and the ostrich photographed at this time had no specific reference object and no sense of oppression in size. It is normal to have such doubts.
[So, is Cobra destined to lose? 】
[I feel hard to say, maybe it will overturn]
"It's true, there is nothing in nature..." Bi Fang wanted to say something else, but he quickly stopped talking and reminded the audience in a low voice, "Look, they are fighting!"
The camera automatically zoomed in and focused, and the audience immediately stopped the barrage they wanted to send.
In the canyon, the originally confrontation between a bird and a snake has changed from confrontation to mutual testing.
The ostrich's most powerful weapon is its legs, and the test is naturally a simple kick. Perhaps because the force is too strong, the audience can't see clearly the moment when it kicks out its legs, and they only feel like a few afterimages passing by.
The Egyptian cobra is obviously a subspecies. It is completely black and powerful. It is not inferior to the ostrich, but it is much shorter. Facing the ostrich's temptation, it can only move back while looking for opportunities. A pair of snake eyes stare at it intently.
Living in an ostrich, the frequency of texting is obviously much faster.
Although it has a pair of eyes, the cobra still cannot deny the fact that it is short-sighted.
All snakes are short-sighted, and most snakes can only see clearly things within 1 meter, and the snake's eyeballs cannot move like the eyeballs of most animals, which results in the snake's visual range being very small.
In addition, there is no optic fovea behind the snake's eyeball, which is the most sensitive area for visual perception. Therefore, the snake not only cannot see things clearly, but also has a very poor ability to detect stationary objects.
This is just for most snakes. Although cobras are very short-sighted, they are already pretty good. Like some snakes in the family Colubridae, they either live in water or in caves, and their eyesight has deteriorated even more.
The blind snake lives underground all its life, and its eyes have degenerated into two small black dots, with only weak light sensitivity and almost no vision.
But cobras have a powerful organ for searching for prey, which is the tongue, also known as snake tongue.
"Snakes in the family Cobra will use snake signals to collect odor particles in the air, and use the odor particles to determine the location and type of prey."
During the brief exchange, Bifang spoke quickly, and his voice became louder unconsciously.
He was not afraid that ostriches and cobras would hear him and scare him away.
Once animals start hunting or fighting, their attention to the outside world is very low, especially stationary objects. As long as they don't jump in front of them, they will basically not be noticed, and they will be regarded as natural environments by default.
For example, once a pack of wolves starts chasing a fleeing antelope, even if a motionless rabbit passes by, it will not attract their attention, but it will be able to escape by a small margin.
Of course, if it moves, that's another story.
After testing for tens of seconds, the battle quickly became intense.
The ostrich was obviously much bolder and began to attack more frequently, but this also allowed the cobra to see more clearly.
The audience couldn't help but hold their breath.
Finally, the ostrich's attack hit the cobra's tail. Almost on the spot, the cobra's flesh exploded, splattering a pool of blood on the rocks nearby.
Is it coming to an end?
Most viewers don't have a favorable impression of snakes, and they didn't feel anything bad when they saw the cobra lose.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
The cobra with almost half of its body suddenly jumped up and bit the ostrich's neck, which was about to lower its head and tear it apart, and then quickly wrapped around it!
Bi Fang couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Can this be counter-killed?
Looking at the remaining half of the snake's tail on the ground, which was still swaying, everyone felt a little ridiculous.
It is normal for an ostrich to kill a cobra, even though the Egyptian cobra has one of the most venomous snakes in the world and is also extremely large.
There is no small species in the cobra family, and it is highly venomous, so it is a species with considerable advantages.
It is more poisonous than it, but not as big as it.
Those larger than it have less poisonous venom.
Venomous snakes usually prey on smaller creatures and rarely use entanglement, but just because they don't, doesn't mean they won't.
Facing the ostrich, the seriously injured cobra obviously did not dare to be careless. It injected venom crazily and wrapped the ostrich's neck tightly, like a black scarf, but this scarf was very scary.
Bi Fang licked the corner of his mouth, feeling very excited. Although he was only watching the show from the side, this rare scene of counter-attack was extremely rare.
The cobra's eyesight is so long that it is difficult for it to keep up with the attack speed of the ostrich. This time it can hit the vital point with one bite, which is like a blind cat meeting a dead mouse.
As an explorer of nature, Bi Fang is deeply involved in and loves all kinds of animals. He is naturally happy to see such a scene.
"The neck of an ostrich is very fragile because both the bones and muscles of the ostrich's neck focus on flexibility and are not very strong. The legs are extremely strong, and the muscles on the femur and fibula are extremely developed."
"If it bites the leg, it might be fine, but if it bites the neck, the ostrich probably won't survive."
"only......"
【Just what】
【Say it】
Bi Fang stared at the remaining half of the snake's body on the ground, but it was not short at all. It was close to one-third, completely beyond the scope of the tail.
"It's hard for this cobra to survive."
"If only the tail is broken, the probability of survival is still quite high. It may be somewhat disabled. But now that it is so long, the internal organs may have been damaged, plus the infection and deterioration of the natural environment..."
Even for animals, infection is quite fatal.
Almost before Bifang finished speaking, the ostrich had already started to react. It was bitten at first and shook its head crazily and flapped its wings, but it was all in vain.
Being so close to the head, the venom quickly took effect, causing the ostrich to become dizzy and eventually fell to the ground. Its huge body even kicked up a burst of dust.
The cobra that fell to the ground did not stay too long. After killing the ostrich, it immediately let go of its body and fled out of the canyon without even taking the loot.
Bi Fang then walked out from behind the boulder, looked at the blood stains on the ground, and shook his head.
The blood marks are not long. Snakes have well-developed muscles and have the ability to stop bleeding on their own. Moreover, the ground is covered with gravel, which can help stop bleeding to a certain extent after being contaminated.
The ostrich on the ground is still struggling and flapping its wings, but unfortunately it has undoubtedly recovered.
With the amount of cobra venom, it is almost impossible for this huge ostrich to survive.
【Eye-opener】
