Four hundred and thirty-seven chapters the crossing of the kingdom of heaven
"I can't estimate this, but I can tell you a number. This is calculated by UNESCO. In 2001, there were about 1.5 million wildebeests crossing the Mara River from Kenya into the Serengeti.
, in addition there are about 250,000 zebras and more than 300,000 Thomson's and Grant's gazelles.
, and there are still many animals that follow them here. There are no specific statistics, but there is a number I can tell you. Do you know how much feces these migrating animals poop every day? About 450 tons!" The Dutch side
While speaking, he made a big circle with his hands, as if he was holding a large pile of cow dung.
"This is really a master who eats one pot and one kang! By the way, why are these wildebeests and zebras always moving together? Are they related?" Hong Tao has no specific idea of how much 450 tons of cow dung is.
He didn't want to study this issue either.
"Both animals eat the same kind of grass. The wildebeest likes to eat the young leaves in the middle, and the zebra prefers to eat the older leaves, so they don't have to compete for food together. In fact, there are many gazelles following behind them. These three animals
All kinds of animals eat the same kind of grass, but they prefer different degrees of freshness, so they don't interfere with each other. They always appear on the same grassland." Holland is indeed a hunting guide who likes to study animals, and generally talks about African animals.
It's really hard for him.
"Oh, how pitiful, look, look, that little wildebeest can't run anymore. It seems that its mother is going to abandon it!" Tikov's wife suddenly burst into tears.
Under the hanging basket, a small-looking wildebeest has separated from the large wildebeest group. I don’t know whether it is because of illness or injury. Anyway, it staggers when walking and sometimes falls to the ground.
It took a long time to get up reluctantly, and then screamed hard at the herd of wildebeests that kept running in front of it.
However, none of the wildebeests in the herd paid attention to the little wildebeest. They still lowered their heads and ran with the team in front, as if no one saw that there was another one of their own kind beside them that needed help.
"How about we go down and help it? It is still a cub. If no one takes care of it, even if there are no lions and hyenas, it will probably starve to death here." Tikov saw his wife wiping tears and couldn't help it himself.
After he stopped, he began to suggest whether he could go down and rescue the little wildebeest.
"It's useless. This is nature's choice. Wildebeests have a habit of always giving birth to calves on the way to migration. On the one hand, there is a lot of tender grass to eat right away. On the other hand, it is also to exercise their little horns.
The ability of horses to live independently. The young wildebeests have to run with the wildebeest herds as soon as they are born. Only the young wildebeests that can keep up with the large group will survive in the future, and those who cannot keep up will be eliminated." Dutch Pee is probably used to seeing this.
There is no sign of weakness in this scene.
"But it is very pitiful. Maybe its health is fine, but it is just hungry. I have milk here. Let's go down and feed it. Maybe it can keep up with the large army." Tikov was still unwilling.
give up.
"It's impossible to go down. Once the wildebeest herd is frightened, we will be trampled to pieces. Not to mention us humans, even the elephants and rhinos will have to avoid these migrating wildebeests. As long as they look in one direction.
, even if there is a cliff in front of them, they will jump off without hesitation." Holland did not consider Tikov's suggestion. As a hunting guide, protecting the safety of his customers was his first choice.
"It's not that evil, is it?" Hong Tao also felt that the little wildebeest was quite pitiful, especially since it was running hard, trying to keep up with the large army.
"How about we make another bet? We can reach the Mara River in the afternoon, and then you will know what it means to be crazy." Holland started to provoke again.
"No. I don't like gambling very much!" Hong Tao glanced at Pan next to him out of habit. When he saw her shaking her head slightly, she quickly rejected the bet.
The hot air balloon flew farther and farther, and the large group of wildebeests had turned into a black line. Apart from the dust raised by the horses' hooves, the figures of the wildebeests and zebras could no longer be seen clearly, and the little wildebeest had also been blocked.
Lost in the dust and smoke. Its fate has been determined from the moment it was born.
Because of the wildebeest incident, the people in the gondola were not in a high mood. Tikov's fat wife's eyes were red from crying, and she did not lie on the side of the gondola with a telescope and look around like she did at the beginning.
I was sitting on the chair in the hanging basket, staring blankly at the sky, not knowing what I was thinking.
The hot air balloon troops in the sky began to disperse after encountering the first group of migrating wildebeest herds. Some of them followed the wildebeest herds towards Lake Victoria. They planned to fly to the Western Corridor to meet the hornets coming from afar.
The other group of hot air balloons, including Hong Tao, has been flying northwest. According to Holland's explanation, these hot air balloons will continue to fly north to near the border of Tanzania and Kenya to see the most spectacular event of the Great Migration in East Africa.
Scene - Crossing to Heaven!
As for what Tiandu is, Hong Tao asked the Dutch for a long time but they didn't tell him. Finally, Hong Tao started to harass Pan because she said that she had seen animal migrations and she probably should know about this Tiandu.
Pan didn't plan to tell Hong Tao at first, but just told him to endure his curiosity and see it for himself, which would be more shocking. However, Hong Tao couldn't stand anyone being stuck to this piece of gummy candy. He was like Tang Monk in Journey to the West.
You keep talking in your ears until you are upset and angry. At this time, you have only two choices, one is to throw him from the balloon, and the other is to tell him what he wants to know quickly and let it go.
He shut up.
"It is a big river that originates in Kenya, and its middle and lower reaches are in Tanzania, and finally flows into Lake Victoria." Pan chose the second method.
"Then what?" Hong Tao didn't relax at all.
"Then these migrating animals need to cross this river to reach the Serengeti. You know, the river is very fast and it is difficult to cross the river." Pan shrugged at the Dutchman, saying that it's not that the sisters are unjust, it's true.
I can't bear it anymore.
"Then what?" Hong Tao was still not satisfied. Although he was listening to Pan's words, he kept glancing at the Dutchman's expression from the corner of his eyes, because he knew that Pan was a master of lying. It was difficult for her to tell lies without changing her face or heartbeat.
Find out the flaws from her, but Holland is still easy to deal with. Whatever he feels in his heart will be shown on his face.
"No, this is the journey to heaven." Pan said calmly.
"By the way, besides the tattoo on your lower waist, do you have any other tattoos? It doesn't matter if they were painted by a famous artist. I want to see it, but you said that your tattoo is a pair of wings, but what do I think about it?
It doesn’t look like it. Do you think the artist made a mistake in the painting? I think those wings are more like those of a bat..." As soon as Hong Tao saw the expression on Holland's face, he knew that Pan still had something to say, and immediately said
Start discussing the unfinished topics with Pan.
"Okay, don't talk about my tattoos anymore. Besides, those wings are about to become the devil's flesh wings. Let me tell you frankly, the Mara River is the water body with the most crocodiles in Africa. The crocodiles in it can grow up to 6 meters long.
And there are a lot of hippos, you know, these two animals have temperaments
None of them are very good, so when these migrating animals want to cross the river, the scene is still very tragic. Many wildebeests go directly to the kingdom of heaven. I swear, I only know so much!" Pan probably had a big head at this time, and no longer
Go around in circles with Hong Tao and tell the answer directly.
"Uncle Fatty, help say hello to Wei Han and tell him to keep some memory cards. There are more interesting things to take pictures of in front of him. If he can't take pictures well, he can jump off the balloon." Hong Tao said after hearing this.
With such a bloody show, I immediately became energetic. I immediately translated for the fat boss, and then asked the fat boss to inform Wei Han on the other balloon.
The hot air balloon flew north for more than an hour and finally arrived at the destination of the trip, the Mara River. During the flight of more than an hour, everyone saw three more wildebeests and zebras running from north to south.
Migration team, compared with the first team, these three
The scale of the team is even greater, and the head of the team cannot be seen to the south, and the tail of the team cannot be seen to the north. Wherever they go, the grass is trampled to pieces, and when viewed from the air, it looks like a black line.
There is a traffic jam on the Huhu Expressway, and it has been jammed for dozens of kilometers.
