In the Black Blind Ridge at the foot of the Changbai Mountains.
An adult black-eared male wolf follows behind a female bear. The she-bear was furious, and the person who turned back stood up, waving her paws to drive the black-eared male wolf away from her.
The black-eared male wolf's eyes showed resentment and reluctance. But the she-bear was so desperate that she roared and pounced on the male wolf. If you don't leave, I'll ruin your momentum.
The black-eared male wolf was afraid of the bear's paws, so he had to turn around and burrow into the jungle three times at a time. The female bear turned around and left, and the black-eared male wolf looked back at the female bear who was slowly leaving, with great reluctance. It wasn't until the she-bear was out of sight that she left.
★ Leftover wolf cubs are raised by she-bears
Black-eared male wolves are wolf cubs raised by the milk of a female bear.
In the spring of that year, a she-wolf who was next to the mother bear couldn't hunt enough food to feed her seven wolf cubs, so she hit the idea of the she-bear's cubs.
Taking advantage of the mother's inattention, the she-wolf bit the bear cub who was playing alone on the side, and then quietly took it back to the wolf's den, so that the seven wolf cubs had a full meal of bear cub meat.
The she-bear followed the scent of the cubs and she-wolf to the wolf's hole.
Although the she-wolf has a keen sense of smell, when she senses danger, the she-bear has blocked the entrance to the hole, slaps the she-wolf who tried to resist to death with one palm, and then eats the six wolf cubs that are devouring the bear cubs in one go. When the seventh wolf cub was found, it was still holding the nipple of a dead she-wolf!
The she-bear was well fed, perhaps loneliness or compassion had made her spare the only living wolf cub. It takes the wolf cub back into the bear hole and begins to feed it as its own cub.
In the animal world, the relationships between various animals are even more complex and incredible than humans. This kind of case of raising the children of the enemy as their own is rare, but it is not a joke!
★ Black-eared male wolves often visit the mother bear
In other words, a mother bear would never milk a she-wolf child who eats her own bear offspring. The she-wolf's cubs will never be reluctant to fall in love with the she-bear. But the facts have come to the opposite conclusion.
Black-eared male wolves sometimes give prey such as rabbits or roe deer to female bears to eat. The she-bear, on the other hand, does not refuse prey sent by the black-eared male wolf. The female bear sometimes shares the prey with the black-eared male wolf, and sometimes she overbearingly opens the male wolf with a single palm.
However, the black-eared male wolf who had been beaten was not annoyed, but just squatted quietly to the side and watched the mother bear eat her food.
The she-bear was full, probably afraid that the black-eared male wolf would snatch her leftovers, and roared angrily to drive the black-eared male wolf away.
After the black-eared male wolf is gone, the female bear will stand in place again, looking at the place where the black-eared male wolf has disappeared from afar. No one can figure out whether the she-bear is nostalgic for the black-eared male wolf or if she is self-reflecting.
Anyway, it won't be long before the black-eared male wolf will bring the prey he has worked so hard to hunt for the female bear.
In between years, year after year. Sometimes the black-eared male wolf tried to play with the newborn cubs of the female bear, but the mother bear angrily drove away. The mother bear is afraid that the black-eared male wolf will eat her bear child. It was a worry that came from the bottom of my heart.
But the black-eared male wolf never did.
★ There is no food in the heavy snow, and Blackear prepares to sneak up on the she-bear
Four years later. Changbai Mountain ushered in continuous heavy snowfall. The snow in the mountains is two feet deep. There are no more active beasts in the forest and sea snow fields. All carnivores face the harsh test of nature once a year.
Humans used to think of spring as a season of famine. However, all kinds of animals in the Changbai Mountains regard the continuous snowfall in winter as a difficult season of famine.
Rabbits, rats, badgers, raccoon dogs, and the like have long since burrowed into their burrows, enjoying the grain and nuts stored in the warehouses in the fall. Bears and other animals that hibernate to escape the cold winter have long been asleep. Only roe deer, wild boars and other herbivores are still gnawing on tree bark and grass tips in the snow. And the people who suffer from the extreme cold are canines such as wolves and felines such as tigers and leopards.
At this time, the black-eared male wolf has become the wolf king of a family. Its family has reached seven members!
I haven't eaten for 10 days!, the she-wolf earnestly admonished the black-eared wolf king.
The black-eared wolf king didn't know that he had nothing to eat for 10 days.
For 10 days, the Black-Eared Wolf King led his family on a safari, but he didn't find a single animal's footprints!
For the survival of the family, the black-eared wolf king suddenly raised his head and howled to the sky: he was determined to hunt bears to satisfy his hunger and survive the cold winter.
The she-wolf and the male wolf had a heart-to-heart and immediately understood the wolf king's intentions, so they also followed it and howled to the sky.
★ Hibernating she-bears want to have babies
At this time, the female bear that once raised the black-eared male wolf was hibernating.
In order to hibernate peacefully, the female bear eats and drinks heavily in the fall, gaining 30% of her weight and more than an inch of subcutaneous fat.
You know, if you don't gain a certain amount of fat, then no bear can sleep peacefully. Some will freeze to death in their sleep, and some can't sleep well, so they can only re-emerge from the hole and wander the forest and snow fields to be a dangerous "camel walker".
Now, the she-bear is already pregnant, and she is ready to give birth to her baby in March.
The bear is a very amazing animal, it can control the implantation time of the fertilized egg in its own body, and control the birth time of the bear child according to the climate and its own physical condition. He is looking forward to having two baby bears next year.
Thinking of this, the she-bear stroked her bulging belly and happily hibernated.
★ The hazy she-bear spotted the danger
We say that people have a sixth sense, which is why they are able to inexplicably perceive the imminent danger of danger.
Wild animals have a stronger sixth sense than humans.
At this time, the mother bear, who was sleeping peacefully in the bear cave, suddenly woke up. It felt an invisible murderous aura coming at it from afar. It couldn't tell if it came from hunters who "dug out their warehouses" to kill bears, tigers who took advantage of bears' hibernation to "block the door", or wolves who did all kinds of evil.
The she-bear closed her eyes and analyzed: Hunter? Because hunters think that hibernating bears are easy to kill. However, it was confident that no hunter would be able to explore the cave where it now lived.
Tigers? is also possible. But the she-bear analyzes that her cave is not in the tiger's territory. There are very few cases of tigers leaving their territory to hunt.
Wolves? Although they are extremely capable of fighting as a team, they can only fight alone if they want to enter the bear cave and kill the bear. And the wolf and the bear fight alone? It doesn't have that ability at all!
However, this crisis is indeed a wolf, and it is a black-eared male wolf that it has raised with milk.
★ Blackear was slapped to death by a she-bear
After 10 days of starvation, the black-eared wolf king threw the nurturing grace of the mother bear to Java. It knows where the she-bear is in the cave, and it knows that the she-bear must fall asleep every winter. It is extremely easy to kill the fierce she-bear at this time.
In addition, the assassination can avoid the embarrassment of meeting the she-bear while sober. Most importantly, the body of the mother bear allows the wolves to survive the famine and avoid starvation.
The she-bear, who had just wanted to fall asleep, suddenly shuddered. It's not good, the murderous spirit is approaching, and the crisis is coming!
The she-bear is ready to fight. It didn't want to run away from the hole. Because the snow leaves footprints, there is no escape from hunters and tigers. In the Limhai Snow Plain, it is definitely no match for hunters and tigers. So, it has to hold on to the bear hole.
This is a one-meter-deep stone cave, the stone cave can protect the body on three sides, only the hole is exposed, and it can completely resist the attack of the tiger. As for the hunter's shotgun, hey, then it's up to fate.
But it turned out to be a wolf, a black-eared male wolf! The she-bear's nose was so good, she sniffed out the scent of a black-eared male wolf. Is it bringing me food again? After all, it's not wolf-hearted, ungrateful. However, the she-bear was still wrong.
At this time, the black-eared wolf king was not far from the female bear's cave. It closed its eyes and sniffed its nose fiercely, as if to engrave the familiar body odor of the mother bear in its heart: I'm sorry Mother Bear. The amount is small and not a wolf, and it is not poisonous and not a wolf. In order for the Black-Eared Wolf King family to survive the difficulties, I have no choice but to assassinate you.
The black-eared wolf king suddenly opened his eyes, and his murderous aura skyrocketed. It knows that in order to successfully kill the female bear, it must bite the female bear's throat without letting go. This difficult task can only be undertaken by the wolf king.
At this time, the she-bear, who was intoxicated with happy memories, suddenly felt a pang of her body, because an even more violent murderous aura pounced on her, and it came from Hei'er's body.
The she-bear let go of her illusions, calmed down, and was ready to fight.
The black-eared male wolf came quietly as little as he could make a sound. It had long seen the she-bear sleeping soundly, and had long since decided the position of its throat.
It's close, it's close! The she-bear pretended to be asleep, but she concentrated her energy and prepared to fight.
The black-eared wolf king judged that the mother bear was still asleep, so he opened his mouth early, showed his sharp wolf teeth, and pounced on the mother bear.
Unexpectedly, bang! A palm shadow flashed like lightning, and the neck of the black-eared wolf king was broken, and his ribcage collapsed.
The power of the she-bear's angry palm is more than a thousand catties, how can the black-eared wolf king resist!
