Emperor Penguin Bird Breeding Online

Back in the snow pit, Song Wen looked sideways at the fluffy little yellow chicken, thought for a while, went outside again, and dug out the penguin eggs hidden in the snow next to him. Following Song Wen to see him busy, seeing Song Wen pushing the penguin egg in front of it, the little yellow chicken was stunned, and tilted its head to look at him suspiciously.

Although the egg liquid inside the penguin egg was hardened by freezing, the shell was very brittle. Song Wen carefully opened a gap with the bird's beak. The shell of the penguin egg is not edible like that of a little yellow chicken. He He didn't touch the unformed egg liquid, and said to the little yellow chicken: "Do you want to eat this?"

The little yellow chicken poked its head over to look, and also pecked off a small piece of eggshell with its beak, and spat it aside, but it didn't have the slightest intention to peck the egg liquid inside.

"Don't you want to eat?" Song Wen slowed down his speech this time, so that the little yellow chicken could understand better.

The little yellow chicken looked at the penguin egg, then at Song Wen, and finally understood what the other party meant. It pushed the penguin egg away with its small claws, "Don't eat it."

This answer was expected by Song Wen. Song Wen had guessed it since he heard the harpies say that he would not eat emperor penguins, but he was still puzzled and couldn't figure out the reason. "why do not you eat?"

"I can't eat it." The little yellow chicken is an omnivorous animal. It can eat its own eggshells, and it can also eat small fish caught by its novice mother. Food turned away.

"Why can't you eat it?" It's understandable to say that Song Wen didn't eat it because the emperor penguins are of the same kind as himself. After all, even in nature, cannibalism between animals rarely happens.But the little yellow chicken is obviously not of the same race as them.Emperor penguins are the only creatures on this ice sheet. If emperor penguins are not on their diet, do little yellow chickens need to go to the sea for food just like emperor penguins?

Is it because neither the little yellow chicken group nor the harpies will include emperor penguins in their recipes, or will all the orcs mentioned by harpies not include emperor penguins in their recipes?The more he thought about it, the more confused Song Wen became.

In his eyes, the emperor penguin is too ordinary, so ordinary that it is not much different from the emperor penguin he saw in the documentary. This is why he thought he was still in the original world at the beginning.However, his understanding of this world was only a few words from the Harpy's mouth, and if he wanted to know more, he had to pry her mouth open.

However, the current harpy looks like she is waiting for the snow to melt, and she feels that she is wasting her little energy if she says a few more words, and she probably thinks that the emperor penguin and its cubs can't do much to her. It is not easy to get empty words out of the opponent's mouth for a big threat.

"I don't know." The little yellow chicken seemed to be struggling to think about the meaning of Song Wen's words, but unfortunately he couldn't understand this feeling very well, so the answer was a bit vague, "I just can't eat it." The little yellow chicken said He said, and nodded, emphasizing his meaning again.

Song Wen didn't make things difficult for him, since the little yellow chickens don't eat penguin eggs, so it's useless to keep the penguin eggs. It seems that we should go to the neighborhood early to see if there is any other food. Song Wen doesn't want to be really hungry When you can't control it, attack the emperor penguins.

"Then we won't eat it." Song Wen pushed the useless penguin egg away. The penguin egg is not small, and it is close to the huge ice next to it, and it can also block the entrance of the cave from wind and snow. It will not let the cold wind at night pour into the snow pit.

After finishing, Song Wen took out the remaining eggshells, only a few days left, Song Wen only took a small piece, and pushed most of them in front of the little yellow chicken, "Let's eat your eggshells .”

The little yellow chicken kept watching Song Wen put the eggshell into his mouth, and then he buried his head in pecking.The eggshell is more crispy than at the beginning, but the milk flavor is much weaker, and the taste is not as good as it was at the beginning. Fortunately, the feeling of satiety has not weakened much.

Early the next morning.

The sun had just climbed out of the horizon, and when the light and warmth came to the earth, Song Wen woke up the little yellow chicken. The little yellow chicken was sleepy. Although Song Wen had mentioned to it in advance last night that it was going to find food, it was obvious that , the little yellow chicken's small head and melon seeds haven't been able to remember the important things all night. At this moment, he has long forgotten about the search for food, and he is only full of doubts that the temperature has not yet reached the warmest time of the day. At that time, why did Song Wen leave the cave at this time?

Opening its beak and yawning big, the little yellow chicken was given a big mouthful of cold wind. Although it was still sleepy, its movements did not stop, and it followed closely beside Song Wen.

There are quite a few emperor penguins coming and going in the emperor penguin colony. Obviously, they are alternately going out to sea to look for food. Song Wen first observed the returning female emperor penguins, and did not see the figure of the novice mother inside. Count the days and hurry up. In fact, the novice mother should be coming back at this time. I don't know if the other party has forgotten her adopted cub, or if something happened on the way, Song Wen doesn't want it to be the latter.

Leading the little yellow chicken around the group of emperor penguins, Song Wen walked towards the back of the latest batch of emperor penguins that went out to sea. That direction was the sea, and the chance of finding food would be higher. At this time, even if he took the little yellow chicken The chickens follow the adult emperor penguins closely, and they don't have to worry about being expelled.

Of course, the two cubs have short legs, so they may not be able to catch up with the adult emperor penguins even if they trot, and they lost several times on the way. Fortunately, the sightlines on the ice sheet are good, and emperor penguins can be seen even if they walk far away With their black figures, don't worry about getting lost.

Even if you can see the huge colony of emperor penguins when you look back, Song Wen doesn't dare to be too careless. Every time you walk a certain distance, you still have to put a mark that you can recognize, so that you can check it when you return.

They don't live with the emperor penguin group now, but if they stay away from the big team, it's still difficult for him and the little yellow chicken to survive here alone, not to mention that they still have food for a few days in the snow pit. Although not much, it is enough for them to grow up.

The little yellow chicken bounced and flapped its little wings all the way, it looked like it was learning to fly, but at the beginning, it couldn't control the direction, and it squeaked when it fell, Song Wen couldn't bear to look at it, I really want the little yellow chicken to stay at night for a few more days, and practice after the fluff on the wings grows stronger and stronger. Later, seeing the little yellow chicken getting more frustrated and courageous, I silently swallowed the dissuasion from my mouth.

One bird, one penguin walked for a long time, and when I looked back, there was only a dot the size of a palm left in the group of emperor penguins, and there was still time to go back, Song Wen didn't dare to leave too far.

The other adult emperor penguins continued to walk forward unsteadily. They may need to walk for several days to reach the beach, and they don't know when the nearby ice will melt. At that time, they will be able to enter the water directly nearby. You don't have to work hard on the ice sheet day and night to catch up with the road for several days.

Although there is still thick ice under their feet, there is actually boundless sea water flowing under the ice. Only the emperor penguin breeding ground is the hard land, and the ice there will not melt for thousands of years. , don’t worry about the cubs falling into the sea before their hair is fully grown, otherwise the emperor penguins will travel thousands of miles, and they have to find such a place to stop and breed offspring.

The little yellow chicken was still fluttering its wings tirelessly. It didn't notice that Song Wen had stopped, and one of them couldn't help bumping into it. The two fluffy cubs rolled together. Fortunately, their hair was fluffy and thick enough, but they didn't. Injuried.

Song Wen got up angrily. He had been hit by little yellow chickens a lot in the past few days, and he was used to it, but the ground here was mostly solid ice, and hitting it was more painful than in the snow.

The ice layer is very thick, but it doesn't mean that there are no gaps. Song Wen was lucky. He saw a few adult emperor penguins gathered not far away. He walked over and took a look, and found that it was indeed a breathing hole.

In addition to a large number of krills under the ice, there are also natural enemies of emperor penguins, leopard seals. Every year during the breeding season, they will guard the way to the sea, waiting for the emperor penguins who are eager to go out to sea to find food.

When the sea starts to freeze, these leopard seals will scrape the ice with their teeth to keep the breathing holes open. Although the breathing holes are dangerous for emperor penguins, in fact, if they can breathe through these When they enter the water in the hole, they can return to the sea as quickly as possible, which is also related to their ability to catch more food to raise their cubs stronger.

The reason why they are reluctant to enter the water around the breathing hole is just thinking about which emperor penguin is willing to take the lead in exploring the way. After all, leopard seals will only hunt one emperor penguin at a time, as long as the predator chooses If the prey is lost, the other emperor penguins will be able to escape.

You must know that these emperor penguins, which are slow on land, can reach a short-term speed of up to [-] kilometers per hour in the water, which is enough for them to escape from the pursuit of leopard seals.

Song Wen's eyes lit up, of course he would not risk his life to follow these adult emperor penguins into the water, his target was the krills living under the ice, or the fish in the water, but what worried him was that this There is not even a single plant on the ice sheet, and there is no handy tool to catch it. If he is still a human, maybe he can try to make a fishing line with the hair of the emperor penguin. Unfortunately, the emperor penguin Flippers can't do such delicate work.

Even so, this did not prevent Song Wen from being surprised when he found a breathing hole as soon as he went out. At least this showed that he was closer to the food.
