Thirty-six counts go up! In the Serengeti savannah of Africa, when the gazelle wakes up every morning, it knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten; when the lion wakes up every morning, it also knows that it must catch up with the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. The pursuit of life, this is the law of survival in the African savannah.
I like to watch "Lonely Planet" the most, learn about the amazing world of nature and animals, admire and envy those field photographers who can observe and photograph animals living in the natural environment so closely, imagine the scene of cheetahs swooping down, and feel the shock and throbbing. It is a luxury to think that you can observe the animals in nature so closely in this life, and at most you can only go to the zoo to get in close contact with the animals.
However, by chance, I came to Africa, to be precise, tanzania in East Africa, not only climbed the highest peak in Africa at an altitude of 5895 meters, Kilimanjaro, saw the snow of Kilimanjaro, but also drove to the Serengeti Steppe and the Ngorogoro Crater Nature Reserve to observe and photograph animals at close range, and the happiness of that dream is still vividly remembered.
We spent 5 days and 5 nights on a prairie parade in the wilderness jeeps in search of waiting and encounters, encountering too many animals unexpectedly. Animals are beautiful or elegant, ugly or ferocious, but they are all so vivid.
The first feeling of the East African savannah Serengeti is that it is big, big and boundless. The most common animal in this land is the beautiful gazelle, which has a good-looking buttocks. They are always grazing quietly on the grassland in groups, and from time to time they look up alertly to look around, and then look down to forage.
The coat color of this beautiful animal is brown and white, and there is a black line on the sides of the body that is conspicuous, making the gazelle look more agile. The male's horns are long and curved, pointing to the sky. When frightened, the gazelle first runs unhurriedly and then suddenly jumps very high. This kind of behavior may be calling the police to a companion, but also warning the enemy who is coming, you give me a far away!
Gazelles belong to the order Cloven-hoofed, bovine family. As the name suggests, the order Gurry has 2 or 4 toes. Gazelles are expert runners who can run at speeds of 80 kilometers per hour for 1 hour, and it is no exaggeration to say that gazelles are long-distance runners in the savannah. Galloping grassland has seen the picture of N gazelles running many times, and the health is indescribable!
During the grassland tour, we saw countless groups of gazelles scattered on the endless grassland, and occasionally there would be one or two lonely gazelles, eating grass alone. Against the backdrop of the huge golden steppe, I suddenly understood what a lonely planet was.
I like to talk to the gazelle with the lens, and when I face it, I somehow always read a poignant sadness from its eyes. They perhaps know best how to "go up thirty-six counts", and for the gazelles life is not so much a beautiful migration as it is an escape from life. Yes, running is their way of survival.
Gazelles on the savannah have many natural predators, and large predators such as leopards and lions regard gazelles as the main objects of prey. Of course, there are also wild boar hyenas and other predators are also staring at the gazelle, waiting for the opportunity to hunt. In order to survive, the gazelle can only run!
Gazelles drinking water in the lake should be careful and careful, crocodiles may be hidden under the calm water, and the little gazelle will lose its life if it is neglected. Yes, even running on the African savannah until exhaustion is more magnificent than falling into the mouth of the enemy alive. Running is one of the most poignant dances of life for a gazelle.
The Serengeti prairie is littered with gazelles, their beautiful dark stripes looming over the vast grasslands. Is there movement in the depths of the grass?! Don't take it lightly, otherwise it will be the price of your life.
Smelled of danger. In fact, I am not afraid of you, it is a big deal that we will have a speed contest. I confessed my life if I lost!
Another run and chase will begin! This is how the change of life is reincarnated in the African savannah.
The seemingly calm and beautiful prairie is full of dangers, because you don't know in which grass you may have a pair of eyes watching you, and the only thing you can do is to learn to run from the moment you are born and land, and keep running until the end of your life. Remember to always be alert to look around, and escape is the most important weapon in life.
What a majestic wild boar! Don't worry, the animals of the African savannah will appear one by one, if you like my graphics, then continue to follow me through the beautiful and mysterious Serengeti savannah.
