Chapter 346 The Crocodile Attacks
As usual evening, the mini donkey McDull went out to stroll and play. There were the tenderest grass by the lake. If you were tired of eating fruit, you would occasionally change your taste.
The white tiger Obama followed it happily, rolling on the ground from time to time, rubbing on the trees, leaving his own scent. His black and white hair was stained with green grass leaves, making him look dirty.
It is only a few months old and it is fun to see anything.
Seeing McDull eating grass, he stretched out his head and bit it and tasted it. His tender little face collapsed instantly.
Three horizontal bars on the forehead that were struck to both sides clearly showed the "March 8". Fortunately, there was a vertical horizontal line passing through the middle and it was not clear, otherwise the reputation of the Bengal tiger would have been ruined by it.
I sneeze and spit out the grass leaves in my mouth, looking unpalatable.
McDull was unhappy. He looked at his own exclusive pasture and took you to eat, but he even disliked him.
Hearing the sound of water on the river, he looked over and hundreds of ducks swim on the lake.
A dead tree stump slowly floated in the distance, heading towards the ducks. When approaching the big white duck, it opened its mouth quickly, bit the duck and sank into the bottom of the water.
The ripples on the lake surface seemed to have not happened before, and duck feathers and blood were emerging.
The ducks were frightened and scurried up the shore in a mess, shaking their fat buttocks, and were still scared.
McDull and Obama didn't turn their minds, staring at the surface of Rota Lake, looked at each other, and they both saw fear in each other's eyes.
He ran home quickly, Obama slipped under his feet and fell to the ground. He didn't care about the pain and chased McDull.
McDull lost half his life, his tongue hanged on his lips, his eyes wide open, and he screamed.
Han Xuan took Pang Ding to drive home from the vegetable planting area. It will take a few days for the hazel trees parasitized by white truffles to transplant outside. Lewis decided to observe for a while.
He handed over several bags of vegetables that Aunt Kelly picked to Joanna and said, "Help me wash some black tomatoes."
Winnie lay on the sofa and groaned, signaling herself to do it too. She turned her head and stared at the TV with her little eyes, and a documentary about polar bears preying on seals was played inside.
"Okay, wait until I help Awa stir the alfalfa. The little chicken cat only likes to eat raisins recently. It's a bit partial to the food, so don't feed them snacks."
Joanna took the bag, walked into the kitchen and placed it on the long table, and the sound came from afar.
"I understand." As soon as Han Xuan sat down, McDull rushed in with Obama. A row of mud footprints were left behind, and he was rushing around in a hurry. Obama bit his trouser legs and dragged them out.
"What's wrong? Don't bite, it's broken."
He twisted the white tiger's ears and pressed it to prevent it from moving. McDull looked crazy, opened his mouth and bitten it, making a fierce low whine in his throat. Seeing Han Xuan's confusion expression, he only hated that he could not speak, so he turned around and walked out, turned around and signaled him to follow him.
Han Xuan really didn't want to move, but he noticed that they were anxious and had no choice but to stand up.
Joanna held the fruit plate with more than a dozen dark purple tomatoes inside and asked him, "Want to go out? I'll put it in the box and bring it with you."
"No, put it in the refrigerator first, I'll come back later. These two guys have something to do with me."
The villa is not far from the lake.
Walking through the grass, McDull raised his head and looked straight at the lake, approaching carefully.
The ducks were far away from the shore and all faced Lake Rota. They were croaking and loud.
There were a few little ducks swimming in the lake, and the female duck was restless, as if she knew there was something terrifying inside, and she flapped her wings and wanted them to come back.
When Han Xuan saw this scene, he couldn't help but frown. Many white duck feathers fell from duckweed and aquatic plants not far away. Originally, one of the adult ducks was missing. It is estimated that the existing ducks are more than thirty fewer than when I saw them last time. I guess there might be some meat-eating fish, such as pikes, high-end sturgeons, and gars.
Walking to the lake, driving the ducks away, intending to raise them elsewhere, besides Lake Rota, there are several other small ponds in the pasture.
At this time, a wave suddenly appeared in the water, as if something was stirring at the bottom of the lake, bubbles emerged, and a few duck feathers floated up again.
Obama was irritated and growled in a tender voice, running back and forth, and found that the wooden stake had appeared just now. He took two steps back in fear, ran to the shore quickly, bit Han Xuan's trouser legs, and retreated far away from the lake.
"Come back quickly!" The bodyguard stood up in the birch forest and waved to the ground. After returning to the ranch, they lurked around and did not appear.
Han Xuan followed his gaze, turned his head to look, and screamed in surprise: "Crocodile!?"
The thing in the water appeared for a few seconds and dived back, but it was indeed a crocodile, more than two meters long and dark all over. Its head was obviously an American crocodile!
There were many of these crocodiles in Montana before, and they generally lived in warm southern regions. After being hunted in large quantities in the 1950s, they were almost extinct.
In the 1960s, wild alligators were protected, and Montana protection has not been effective. These alligators like to hunt livestock, and cowboys and ranch residents have no good feelings and often hunt secretly.
Moreover, there are not many swamps nearby, resulting in a sparse number of alligators. Han Xuan has been in the Snow Mountain Ranch for so many years and saw a crocodile appear for the first time today.
Retreat to safety, the sunset shone on the water, emitting sparkling water marks, waved to the bodyguard that he was fine, and called Obama and McDull to run home.
I searched all the rooms and found that my parents were not at home. After asking Awa, I knew that they went to the lavender field to weed. I patted Winnie and asked him to take him to find them, turned over and straddled the brown bear's back...
A few minutes later.
"What? You said there are crocodiles in Lake Rota? Don't joke, how is that possible."
When Han's father heard his son's words, he straightened his waist and threw away the weeds in his hand. He would not remove them in autumn. When the grass seeds matured and fell, there would be more weeds next year. Without herbicide, he could only pull them out with his hands. He found that Han Xuan had a serious expression and raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Are you telling the truth?!"
"Well, a bodyguard also saw that the ducks were much smaller and there were also the feathers of the big female duck on the lake."
"...I'm having a headache now. The livestock on the ranch like to drink water in Lake Rota. They are easily attacked by them, and people will suffer. Over time, the cattle and sheep are overly nervous and prone to illness. You should hurry up and ask Patton and the others. If they had to have it before, they should know what to do."
"Well, dad, they have no natural enemies here and they breed very quickly. The number of alligators in Florida exceeds two million, and it has become a disaster. In the summer, cowboys will swim in the river. If there are crocodiles, no one will dare to go down."
"No! You can't keep them, grab them and send them to another place. Don't go to the vicinity of Lake Rota during this period.
When I got home, I called John, Patton and the others to come." Han's father took off his gloves and stuffed them into his pocket of clothes, hugged the boy's shoulder and walked back.
When Han Xuan's mother saw them leaving, she shouted loudly: "Didn't she say she wants to exercise? Don't be lazy! It's not dark yet!"
"I have something to do! You'll be busy first and come back soon" (To be continued.)
