"Brother Pingtou is either fighting, or on the way to fight. ”
Speaking of Pingtou, in fact, many people will think of its "funny" image and "not afraid of heaven and earth" character.
It can walk fearlessly on all kinds of roads, and do what it sees when it sees an "enemy".
Many people think that this is because Brother Pingtou is naturally bold, but in fact this is not the case.
The leader of the animal kingdom
If you want to say that Brother Pingtou is the leader of the animal world, it is estimated that no one will object.
And its explosion actually has a lot to do with a film called "God is Crazy 2".
In this movie, the male protagonist accidentally stepped on the flat-headed brother behind him, and it is estimated that he himself did not expect that with such a step, he would be chased by "crazy" in the next six hours.
The most exaggerated thing is that the scene they are chasing is not yet flat, but in the endless desert.
Since the broadcast of this movie, Brother Pingtou has become what everyone calls the "leader of the animal world".
However, Brother Pingtou is actually the nickname that everyone gives it, and Brother Pingtou's real scientific name is actually "Honey Badger".
There is a theory that the origin of the name is actually because they like to eat honey, hence the scientific name "honey badger".
The name sounds very cute, and the appearance of the flat-headed brother actually has nothing to do with the word "fierce".
If you look at the flathead from a distance, you will find that the top of its head looks like it is missing a piece, which looks very "funny".
It's not the funniest thing, seeing the gradient color on its body, that's what impresses people at first sight.
Because most of the color of Brother Pingtou's body is black, but above the back, I don't know why it suddenly changed to gray or white, and even lasted all the way to the top of the head.
Although these hairs look very soft, if you really touch them, then you will feel a feeling of "pricking your hands", which is actually a layer of "armor" for Pingtou.
On the flat-headed brother, the neck is actually the most vigorous hair, and the thickness of their hair here can reach 0.6 meters.
And when many animals attack, they will actually bite the neck first, which is what we call the neck.
But it just so happens that if someone bites Brother Pingtou's neck, then it will not hurt Brother Pingtou so much, after all, its hair here is relatively thick, and it will not be easily bitten through.
You must know that compared with the large size of lions and tigers, Pingtou is like a "little ant", their body length is only sixty or seventy centimeters, and their weight is also hovering around 10 kilograms.
But although it is small, it can't stop its heart of "conquering the world", and even the People's Daily has published an article about Brother Pingtou's "arrogance".
Pingtou's "arrogance"
In the daily life of the flat-headed brother, his favorite thing to do is to find other animals to fight, even if it is the size of an elephant, it is not a threat in their eyes.
It is said that Brother Pingtou is a very vengeful animal, and if anyone provokes him, then it will go up directly to take revenge.
Sometimes, even if others don't mess with it, it will aggressively find someone to fight, and the reason behind this is probably because the animal accidentally looked at it.
It can be said that this is simply the existence of the animal kingdom, and even the poisonous snakes and poisonous bees that many animals are afraid of can only be regarded as its spicy strips in front of Brother Pingtou.
And when they fight, they actually rely mainly on their sharp claws and teeth.
The flat-headed brothers in the pictures we usually see are actually very "one-sided", and we can't see their claws at all.
But in fact, the claws of the flathead brother are very sharp, once they see the prey, they only need to attack quickly, then the sharp claws will easily pierce the fur of the animal.
If it were sharper, it would probably be able to shred them directly, and even wild boars with rough skin and thick flesh would not be able to escape under the sharp claws of the flat-headed brother, let alone other herbivores.
In addition to sharp claws, Brother Pingtou also has sharp teeth, once he bites any prey, then it is estimated that this prey is also in danger.
Whether they fly in the sky or swim in the water, as long as they stop and fight with Brother Pingtou, then their final outcome is basically "defeat".
That's why it's either fighting, or on the way to fight.
Because of this, Pingtou was also selected by the Guinness World Records Committee as the "most fearless animal in the world".
But what many people don't know is that Brother Pingtou's fearless character is not because of its sharp claws and teeth, but because of its eyes.
"Critical" eyes
Some experts have studied the eye structure of the flat-headed brother, and they found that the eye structure of the flat-headed brother is different from that of most animals, and its eye is a concave lens.
In this structure, everything they see is actually deformed, and it is still a smaller one.
That is to say, all animals are basically like "little ants" in the eyes of the flat-headed brother, and sometimes they are not even as thick as their claws.
For them, they only need to move their claws casually, and they can knock their prey to the ground very easily, just as we can crush an ant to death.
For example, a huge lion is actually like a kitten in the eyes of the flathead.
It's no wonder that when everyone describes the relationship between Brother Pingtou and poisonous snakes, they will say that eating poisonous snakes is like eating spicy strips, perhaps in the world in the eyes of Brother Pingtou, poisonous snakes are really like spicy strips.
But Brother Pingtou himself didn't know about this, and he didn't know that the prey he attacked was many times larger than his own.
In their eyes, as long as they provoke themselves, they can't make the other party feel better, and they will be done with a direct attack, and this is also the reason why Brother Pingtou is fearless.
I wonder if Brother Pingtou will make the same choice after seeing the true size of his opponent?
Of course, in addition to the eyes, in fact, the overall body structure of the flat-headed brother also determines his character suitable for fighting.
If you look closely, you can see that the flathead looks a little flat, because it is a small short leg, and it is also very thick, which looks very comedic.
But such legs also happen to give it a very good running ability, according to relevant information, Pingtou can run at a speed of 9.6 kilometers per hour.
Not only that, the biggest advantage brought by short legs is actually the "stable chassis", when attacked, they can protect their abdomen well, thus bringing themselves a very big advantage.
In fact, I have to admit that the body structure of each creature and the "special points" in all aspects are very necessary.
