Caesar of the Primordial Beast World

Chapter 42 The Dry Season

Even the most powerful Nils has cubs that are starved to death every year; Tyran, a male who is called a freak in Pads, cannot guarantee that his cubs will be free from hunger every year. hungry--

Without him, no matter how strong the hunting ability is, it will not be able to keep the aquatic plants in this territory from flourishing and drying up in one season, and it will not be able to stop those herbivores from moving with the seasons.

Life on the Felida grassland is so cruel. Of course, herbivores must always be vigilant not to become someone's lunch, and the predators at the top of the food chain are not necessarily hungry if they have the ability to hunt.

This year's dry season is actually not considered the harshest drought since Tyrann occupied a territory, it is only a little worse than the best years in those two years, but even in such a year, Tyrann has never had a cub and never starved to death What's more, this year is very different. Although there are not a few more cubs than in previous years, there is one more Armston. Caesar made an appointment with him that day. The Tyrann territory is divided into two, Armstone was on one side with the females who didn't have cubs, and Tyrann's females who had cubs on the other—

When the water and grass were luxuriant, the two sides didn't realize that there were more prey on the other side, and even didn't feel that there was something wrong with only half of them. Like Eve, who raised three cubs in one litter, Caesar only shot occasionally. Primo and Ittis also ate and supported every day, and Banban was able to bring food home from time to time...

But now when there is not enough water and grass, the problem comes out.

Although the territories of the females have been changed, there still seem to be so many females. The only thing left in the Pads group is an Armstone——

The appetite of adult males is naturally much better than that of female cubs, how much can one eat?

When Caesar and him divided the half of the land where they lived temporarily, Armstone was afraid of the road, and very wisely gave up the area with many trees and hills.

The place with many trees is the favorite of the females. Not only is it convenient for them to hide their cubs, but even in the dry season, they can relatively have a few more prey, and it is also convenient for them to hide and store food.

Unfortunately, compared to previous years, this is not enough.

There are some strange things about the creatures on the Felida Grassland. The lower the food chain, the easier it is for the creatures to thrive, but the higher the food chain, the more restrictions there are.

Unfortunately, although Pades is not the best stamina among big cats, the strength is not the greatest among big cats, and the speed is not the fastest among big cats...

It seems that he doesn't have any part in the "best", but the overall strength is actually not weak, otherwise there would be no such thing as Bridget's little Nils female being kidnapped by Tyron——

Don’t look at Nils and Pades as if they live together with one male and many females. The females of Nils really work together and live in groups, but the females of Pades are wary of each other and rarely communicate with each other. Nils' cubs were hunted, cared for, and raised together by all the females, but Pads' cubs were not even willing to be touched by their own parents...

When Tai Lun went to hijack other small females, he naturally picked the time when the males went out to patrol the territory and most of the females also went out to hunt. The other females ran back into the woods before forming a siege with the males, and finally forced the then female leader of Nils to accept the alliance under the city, and for more than three years, the males who had always been part of the other end could not do anything to him... …

All these are enough to show the high comprehensive quality of Pades.

——Therefore, Pads' childbirth was more difficult than Niels', which seemed to be a matter of course.

There are quite a lot of females in Tyron’s territory. Fresh and tender girls like Eve have new ones almost every year. Not many survived from the previous male like Cecilia, but there are still some. Yes, it's a pity that when it comes to the harvest of the cubs, compared to the abundant harvest of the male Nils, when the Tyrannosaurus is at its best, only about [-]% of the females can successfully conceive.

Now the females with cubs, together with those with sub-adults, total eleven, almost forty-five percent.

When these [-]% of the females raise their cubs, although there are boundaries between females and females, it’s just that the female who has raised the cubs will be particularly concerned about others. No, other cats go to her territory to fight the autumn wind. Those who have cubs, anyway, the whole family will not be hungry if the cat is full, but the female who raises cubs next door comes to play the autumn wind in her territory. As for the prey, Pads is an adult female who is capable of single-handedly fighting a flat-headed squamous beast. There are no cubs on the left and right. When she walks out of the territory, where can she not find a bite to eat?

Anyway, in the coming year, when she raises the cubs herself, she won't take advantage of her neighbors.

↑This is about the tacit understanding that the Pades females don't need to say.

The habits and rules formed by nature are also very miraculous. Nils females are used to raising their cubs together. They have a habit. Females of the same group basically go into heat at the same time, even if they are newly added and unrelated females. , After living together for a period of time, this wonderful synchronization of reproduction will also be formed.

The Pads females also have a strange quality, neighborhood females rarely get pregnant at the same time, very few like Eve and Charlotte.

So they are very used to going to the next door to play the autumn breeze when raising their cubs.

This is probably why it is more difficult for Pads to give birth than Niels, and the female raises her cubs alone, and finally grows up to leave her mother, but the number is not bad!

Unfortunately, it won't happen this year.

The existence of Armstone allows females to live according to whether they are raising cubs. Maybe even if they are not so neighbors, females who have not raised cubs will not mind giving a little convenience to the same kind of raising cubs. After all After raising this batch of cubs, Tai Lun also left with the cubs. The remaining females will still share a younger and stronger male with them. It's not bad until you get cheap.

However, which female with cubs would dare to challenge Armston's territory?

It should be noted that after the Pades male occupies a territory, he kills and eats the original cubs, but the habit of taking turns giving birth to females is no worse than the deep-rooted habit of females!

Armstone defeated Tyron but did not kill him. Armstone originally chased and killed Tyron's cub, but he gave up his idea halfway...

This is a very incredible thing for the females. Although those who have raised cubs are very happy, and those who have not raised cubs do not mind delaying the year, but no one can take this abnormality as a Ordinary, still living the old days, right?

——The Pades male is so hungry, he doesn't even mind eating his own cubs!

As the weather gets drier and the prey becomes scarcer, the females with their cubs, let alone go to the territory of Amston to fight the autumn wind, they have to guard against the two extinct males, Amston and Tyron. Well intentioned!

Thanks to the fact that the cubs are growing up day by day, even Charlotte's slowest-growing little male, the animal form is not enough now, but the human form can sit on the mother's back and walk around with her, Charlotte has to be extra careful Those winged beasts or other things took the opportunity to trick her into carrying cubs on her back, but no matter what, they were better than those who could only abandon their cubs while hunting.

But it's getting harder day by day.

Now, apart from Eve's family of four, among the Pads on Tyron's side, none of them can really have a full meal.

Even Eve, although she would be full when the food was plentiful, would often not eat for a day or two.

As for the fifth cat of Caesar's family, Tai Lun is old and unrefined. He used to like to compete with Eve for the filial piety of his youngest son when the water and grass were luxuriant. Rat meat and insect meat, which was filial to his mother, were eaten by stealing, but now when serious prey are scarce, he will not come instead.

Caesar is a person who doesn't have much concept of time. In other words, although he is just a little cat without foundation building, he still retains the thinking of the demon king who crossed the catastrophe that day. These three to fifty days and three to five days are generally normal. , In addition, unlike the time when Armstone first came, Caesar did not have a feeling, and he was happy to practice more with the more abundant daily fire spirits in this dry season.

On the other hand, Eve figured it out by herself on that day, and there were five and five and five of the voyeurs... Many sun and moon rotations didn't come to them, did they?It must be really gone, right?Didn't he sneak here again when he was hunting by himself?

Eve is now carrying more and more cubs with her, but the hunting is getting more and more difficult. She is no better than other females. She only needs to take care of one cub, which is Caesar. He is really small, but he has that While flying around, Eve was also very worried that he would be taken away by some hungry and crazy winged beast, not to mention Primo and Edith——

Undoubtedly, when the prey is extremely rare, Eve will still hide the cubs in a slightly safer place.

It's just that such a place can guard against other beasts, but it can't guard against fellow Pads.

Eve had to repeat the same old tune again:

"Before there was plenty of prey, don't really think that males are so harmless and selfless. If the peeping tom still dares to come, he must call his mother quickly. The old thing doesn't seem to be able to catch prey, but who knows What? When hunting, anything can happen, we must prevent him from starving and eating anything."

Primo and Ittis had no more quarrels.

But Tyron never came.
