Chapter 1566 Wolves
This is a very strange team, led by a young gray wolf, followed by a man, a dog, a monkey, two birds, a few cats, and a small herd of deer a little behind. As for the place behind, in the dense forest, there may be a pack of black bears and coyotes waiting for an opportunity to revenge.
Such a huge team, trekking through the vast jungle, was like a drop of water thrown into the sea. Even if you were flying directly above in a helicopter, you could not see any sign of existence.
After walking like this for an hour or two, Feimas ran back to Zhang Zi'an and whispered: "There are other wolf smells, cat smells... and human smells, but not what I left behind recently."
Zhang Zi'an nodded and signaled the elves to be alert. The wolves were right in front of him, and it was impossible to judge whether they were enemies or friends.
He walked a few steps back, stopped the deer, pointed to the side, and told them to stop here and not to move forward. The deer was a little unhappy, until he hid his backpack in a tree hole next to him, indicating that he would come back. The deer then took the deer into rest mode, lowering his head to gnaw on the grass leaves and wild fruits.
If the wolves in this forest had not disappeared for nearly a hundred years, the deer would never have been following until now. No matter how much they like to lick salt and trust him, they would have forgotten how dangerous the wolf is, and they were simply sending sheep into the wolf's mouth.
The young gray wolf seemed to be eager to reunite with his family, regardless of the pain of the wounds scratched by the snow lion at the hind legs, and accelerated his pace. Zhang Zi'an, who was traveling lightly and simple, followed closely with the elves.
After walking for a while, the distance could not be accurately judged in the forest, and the front suddenly became clear, the trees temporarily disappeared, and what appeared in front of me was a low hill made of rocks.
Several wolves linger among the rocks, including about ten young gray wolves, including adult and young wolves.
Wolves are often composed of a large family, including the head wolf couple, the brothers and sisters of the head wolf couple, and the children of the head wolf couple. For example, this young gray wolf is too young, it may be the head wolf couple's children who have grown up but have not yet been independent.
Strictly speaking, the inside of the wolf pack is not ruled by a male head wolf, but by a male head wolf couple. The male head wolf manages the male wolf, the female head wolf manages the female wolf, and raises the young wolf, just like the emperor and the queen are in charge of the outside and the inside respectively.
Zhang Zian quickly recognized the head wolf, a strong adult male wolf standing on a stone, while his spouse was taking care of three young wolf-like puppy-like wolves, while the other wolves were chasing and fighting in the open space in front of the rocks. However, their fighting seemed dangerous to humans, and it was like biting seriously, causing the wolf's hair to fly everywhere, and sometimes even biting and bleeding.
The male wolf that once took away a coyote was also among them, perhaps the brother of the head wolf.
The sudden appearance of Zhang Zi'an and the elves made the pack of wolves panic. You should know that the pack of wolves are top carnivorous animals in this forest, and even black bears dare not provoke them easily. The clowns can only stay away from them, and coyotes are no problem. Their only natural enemy is humans.
Humans once drove the gray wolf out of this land, but now they are back. If humans want to, they can drive them out again.
What made the wolves even more angry was that there was a traitor among them. It was the young male wolf who led people into the house and brought dangerous humans to them.
The head wolf jumped down from the stone and roared at the young male wolf a few times, but he didn't even bother to scold it further, so he glared at Zhang Zi'an with his fangs.
Except for the ignorant young wolves, all the other wolves rushed over and surrounded Zhang Zi'an and the others in a fan shape. As long as the head wolf gave the order, or if he did something extreme to stimulate them, they would rush forward.
The young male wolf whimpered in grievance, hesitating and looking confused.
Wolves and dogs have strict levels within the group. The head wolf couple, as the highest level, is called alpha, the second level, is called beta, which is equivalent to middle-level management cadres, and the rest are Omega who acts as younger brothers.
The adult male wolf that bit a coyote and took it away should belong to Beta in the wolf pack, and this young male wolf should belong to Omega.
Whether to become a beta or an omega does not depend on the size of the wolf, but is related to the age and personality of the wolf. A wolf who has just grown up and has a gentle personality will be an omega. When it is a few years older, it hones its superb hunting skills in hunting and becomes as cruel as other wolves, it will challenge the beta wolf, and after defeating, it will become a beta.
Of course, the Omega wolf sometimes leaves the pack and becomes a lonely wolf, either establishing its own family or dying alone in the wanderings.
The success rate of wolves hunting is only one-tenth, and the success rate of lone wolf hunting itself is even lower. If the protection of the wolf pack is lost, the lone wolf will face a great survival crisis. It is mostly due to death in a foreign land, or because he is too hungry to attack human domestic animals, which is even more of a death.
The beta wolf before, when the coyote confronted Zhang Zi'an, successfully attacked and killed a coyote, and calmly carried its prey to escape under the siege of three or four coyotes. The rich hunting skills can be seen; and the young male wolf easily let go of his guard against Zhang Zi'an's food offensive because it was a young and docile omega wolf.
If the two are in a row, the young male wolf will probably have to give up the prey he has won and run away in a panic. The adult male wolf may be surrounded by elves and may fight to the death.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Zi'an knew something was wrong. He originally expected the young male wolf to introduce him to the wolf pack, but its status in the wolf pack was too low, and he could not interfere with the strong Alfa and Beta wolf.
If they met elsewhere, the wolf pack might not have reacted so fiercely, but most mammals protect their calves, and the wolf pack has a strong sense of territory. They may think that they are going to hurt three young wolves, and in order to protect their cubs, they will definitely fight to the death.
Zhang Zian didn't dare to make big moves, and he didn't dare to try to lure these wolves into his bag. And it probably wasn't useful. So a little bit of beef jerky is not enough for these wolves to get stuck in their teeth.
He quietly held the anti-bear spray. If the wolves rushed over, spray it in front of him in an arc regardless of the situation until it was deterred, and then take the opportunity to escape.
The elves were also ready for battle. In order to save their lives, Richard flew to the branches.
He secretly gestured to the elves and asked the elves to slowly retreat.
At this moment, the wolves looked back as if they heard some sound, staring at the highest point of the pile of rocks, and there was clearly nothing there.
