Chapter 852 Golden Eagle Hunting Wolf
Sumarokov signaled to his two subordinates, who took off the iron chain tied to the wooden door of the fence. After entering, they carried the cage containing the Siberian wolf to the door.

As soon as the cage door opened, the wolf immediately jumped out and ran into the field with his head lowered.

The two men also immediately lifted the cage out of the fence door and tied the wooden door shut with iron chains again.

The Siberian wolf is actually the ancestor of the sled dog, the husky.

This thing is the largest member of the wild canine family in the world, known for its endurance and often migrates long distances.

The golden eagle on Sumarokov's arm is only a four to five kilogram bird of prey, while the Siberian wolf weighs at least forty kilograms, even ten times the weight of the golden eagle.

Looking at the wolf that had been locked up for a long time and still looked very strong, Lu Lu suddenly regretted saying that the golden eagle could fight against the wolf.

Fierce birds and beasts, the two fight, life and death are instantaneous!
"Golden eagles and wolves have great overlap in their territories, but generally speaking, golden eagles prey on smaller animals such as rabbits, squirrels, geese, swans, and foxes, while wolves move in groups. This This means that they generally hunt larger prey, otherwise they cannot meet the food needs of the group.

Therefore, although the territories of golden eagles and wolves overlap, they will not easily conflict with each other.

Only after the falconer has tamed it will it be used to assist in hunting wolves. It is actually very difficult to kill the wolf, such as entangling the prey... Therefore, when the fight starts later, you still have to be careful, Jin What a pity that the eagle was injured! "

Lu Lu couldn't help but save him.

Usually, only falconers train golden eagles to hunt wolves. In nature, fights between wolves and golden eagles rarely occur, but it is not impossible.

Golden eagles are aloof beings. They usually move alone and have their own territories. They rarely interact with each other except during the mating and breeding season.

However, there are always exceptions, and there has been a situation where several golden eagles gathered together to hunt down wolves.

Moreover, the record was remarkable. Seven of the wolves in the wolf pack were hunted by the golden eagle group, and the rest were covered with scars and chose to flee.

It was during the severe winter season and when food was severely scarce, the golden eagle had to focus on the wolves.

This seems a bit beyond people's imagination, but we have to admit that its existence is reasonable.

Sumarokov smiled and said: "Isn't it true that we still have you? If it doesn't work, just take action. You have good marksmanship and nothing will happen... Moreover, this wolf has been locked up here for some time. Now It kept shrinking into the corner, and it was also very scared. Maybe the golden eagle really had a chance to defeat it."

Hearing this, Lu Lu breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, the wolf has been released...

"Then you take off the golden eagle's blindfold. It hasn't been fed much in the past few days. It's the time when it's hungry. Hungry golden eagles are often more ferocious. If you feed them on weekdays, you have to pay attention to controlling the amount of food. Otherwise, the golden eagle will It eats too much fat, which affects its fighting ability. In order to make it lose weight, I even shaved it with oil."

"Oil scraping?"

"A way to tame a golden eagle is to train it, wrap a cotton ball with meat, tie it with a thin thread to let it eat, and then pull the cotton ball out to scrape off the grease in the intestines, allowing it to eat While it remains light, it also has powerful attack power due to proper hunger. If it is raised too fat, it will easily become stupid.

There is also this eye mask, which must be worn frequently when not in use, so that it can focus more and be less affected by the outside world, otherwise it will fly away. "

"Okay, I'll take it down."

Sumarokov nodded, reached out and took off the golden eagle's blindfold, raised his arm suddenly, and the golden eagle immediately flew out. When it spread its huge wings, it was more than two meters long, with terrifying power.

It flew around the fence and immediately saw the startled wolf below, and dived towards the wolf without hesitation.

Even in the wild, when the wolves notice the huge size of the golden eagle's wingspan, they will subconsciously run away and hide, let alone this wolf that has been imprisoned for many days and has been tortured to a timid state.

Seeing the golden eagle swooping down towards him, the wolf immediately circled around the fence looking for a way to escape.

But since you dare to let it out, there is no chance of it escaping. The range of its activities is limited and there is nowhere to hide. The only choice is to escape or escape.

The golden eagle has a natural advantage in air strikes, and its speed is far beyond that of the wolf. In almost the blink of an eye, the golden eagle has already pounced on the wolf, with a pair of thick and powerful claws stretched out, directly grabbing the wolf's butt.

In fact, on the grassland, when falconers tame golden eagles to hunt wolves, they usually catch a wolf first, tie it up, limit its range of activities, and then release the golden eagle to attack.

Zhao Tuanqing had no training in this area when he tamed this golden eagle, but when it comes to hunting golden eagles, the situation is often similar.

One is chasing, the other is escaping. In most cases, the hunted prey is hit first.

The same thing happened to the wolf now. The buttocks were suddenly grabbed by a pair of sharp claws of the golden eagle. The claws were as sharp as hooks and could easily penetrate the wolf's fur.

Being attacked and feeling threatened, the wolf instinctively launched a counterattack. He bent his waist, turned around, opened his mouth and bit the golden eagle.

The golden eagle had probably never fought against a wolf. Faced with this ferocious bite, it instinctively chose to loosen its claws, and while jumping away, its wings suddenly flapped.

The wings of the golden eagle can be called iron wings, and Lu Lu has seen its power before. When he was looking for agates in the mountains, the bruises on the guy who was attacked by the golden eagle were caused by the wings, which shows that he is quite powerful. .Hidden by its wings, no one could see clearly what was going on. They only heard the wolf let out a scream and ran away, dragging its tail.

Lu Lu guessed that the wolf's nose was probably slapped by the golden eagle.

As the saying goes, a copper head has an iron bone and a numb waist, while a wolf head has hard bones. Being slapped like this will not cause so much pain.

Moreover, with that claw just now, the wolf's butt was already bleeding.

Seeing the wolf running away, the golden eagle flapped its wings and flew up. After circling again, it dived towards the wolf again.

After the first confrontation, the wolf seemed to have made preliminary calculations. While running wildly, it looked back. Seeing that the golden eagle was about to pounce, it twisted its body, jumped up, and bit the golden eagle. claws out.

Upon being counterattacked, the golden eagle reacted quickly. It adjusted its swooping gliding body slightly and suddenly shot up at a weird angle, narrowly avoiding the wolf's mouth.

This scene made everyone tremble with fear. If it were bitten by a wolf and dragged to the ground, without the advantage of an air attack, the golden eagle would probably be destroyed.

At this moment, the golden eagle flying high dived down for the third time.

It was almost the same method. When the golden eagle dived, the Siberian wolf had more precise control. It stopped running and turned around to stare at the golden eagle. When the golden eagle grabbed it with its sharp claws, Sometimes, it presses its front paws down to make its body shorter.The wolf's leg press is also a way of accumulating energy to prepare for an attack.

The next second, the wolf jumped up and opened its mouth to bite the incoming sharp claws. Lu Lu even saw it deliberately tilting its head and biting from the side.

Lu Lu thought to himself: This Siberian wolf is really smart!
It is said that the brain capacity of the husky, which was domesticated from the Siberian wolf, is 30.00% smaller than that of the Siberian wolf. The Husky is a bit stupid, but the Siberian wolf is really smart.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the golden eagle flapped its wings wildly, not to fly high to avoid it, but to slow down the impact and slap the wolf on the head.

Such attacks are often based on timing, and if there is even a slight difference, the result may be completely changed.

The sudden drop in speed made the wolf's attack fail, but the golden eagle failed to fly and fell to the ground.

How could the wolf give up such a good opportunity and immediately pounce on the golden eagle?

At that moment, Lu Lu quickly raised his gun, preparing to end the wolf's life, but he saw the golden eagle after landing, fluttering its wings wildly and jumping back high, and when the wolf bit him, a pair of The claws suddenly moved forward and successfully grabbed the wolf's head. The sharp hook nails on one toe even dug into the wolf's eye socket.

The wolf suffered such severe damage to his eyes, and suddenly screamed. However, his head was caught by a pair of sharp claws of the golden eagle, and he could not bite him. He could only fall to the ground and scratch it with a pair of front paws, but The golden eagle was not weak, it kept vibrating its wings, firmly grasping the overwhelming advantage above, adjusting its position, constantly beating and resisting with its wings, and even looking for the right opportunity to peck.

For a moment, a wolf and an eagle were fighting each other, and the one at the disadvantage turned out to be the wolf. The key was that he was pecked several times on the head, and blood came from several places.

Although it is known as the bronze head, it could not withstand such fierce and sharp pecks. After several minutes of tossing, it was actually opened by the golden eagle.

Lu Lu also didn't expect that things would end so easily, and that the golden eagle would actually have such power when facing a wolf for the first time.

Anyway, it lived up to expectations.

It was obviously very hungry. After the wolf couldn't move, it just kept busy eating, pecking open the wolf's skin three or two times, and then tore off the meat inside piece by piece and swallowed it into its belly.

clap clap clap...

Seeing this, Sumarokov applauded repeatedly: "Good guy, well done!"

Lu Lu also breathed a sigh of relief. It depends on him how he will be fed next.

Several people stood on the platform and watched for a while. Seeing that the golden eagle was almost full, Sumarokov twisted his thick body, went down the stairs, opened the door of the fence himself, and strapped the golden eagle on. He put the blindfold back on his arm and said loudly to Lu Lu and others: "Let's go back and drink. I will prepare the most sumptuous lunch for you today!"

The group returned to Sumarokov's living room. The conversation naturally centered on the golden eagle, and Lu Lu was telling him more about how to feed and train it.

At noon, it turned out to be a feast that was so sumptuous that Zhang Shaofeng and others were stunned. A long log table was specially prepared, with at least fifteen dishes placed on it. There were maids pouring wine and male servants. There were only seven people in charge of barbecuing and eating together, but there were more than ten people waiting on the side.

It took more than two hours to eat one meal. Lu Lu and others naturally seized the opportunity to pick out what they liked and found it tasted good, so they replenished it.

Eat and drink enough, then go back to the room to rest and recuperate.

"It's so irritating that people are so different from each other. In the past, landlords and wealthy people may not have such a battle when eating." Liang Kangbo was eye-opening today: "This is simply a local emperor!"

Lu Lu smiled and said: "People are rich and willful. This winery we can see is a huge profit for them. I don't know how much money they made in a year, let alone other things."

He couldn't help but yawned: "Hurry up and rest. We have to leave tomorrow. There is a long distance from here to Khabarovsk. We are walking in the mountains. It will take a lot of time to go back and forth. We will go there this time." , pick good prey to hunt, wait until you get the mallet and come back, and then hunt again depending on the situation. When the time comes, sell the skins, and after getting the money, we will leave immediately."

In the remaining time, except for another sumptuous dinner, several people spent the rest of the time catching up on their sleep. Until the next morning, they bid farewell to Sumarokov, drove the sledge and led the dog into the forest. Heading towards Khabarovsk.
