Well, now I’m homeless.

After Ryan left, Gerald got up from the ground in frustration, his small head lowered like a frosted eggplant. He is distinguishing the surrounding atmosphere, trying to find a temporary shelter for himself.

‘I wish I lived a little longer, it would be the most unfortunate thing if I, once a human, were eaten by hunters as food. ‘ he thought.

However, how can it be so easy to make a living in this wild nature? Every minute of Jera’s existence, outside the sanctuary of the lions, is a miracle.

Lions are the top predators in this grassland, and few creatures can compete with them except for elephants and hyenas. But lion cubs less than one year old are very fragile. With the protection of the lions, their survival rate is not high, let alone being expelled from the lions, which is equivalent to giving up the cub directly.

Obviously, the lions in Garner group think so, and they don’t think that Gerald, who was abandoned by Ryan, can survive alone. Therefore, although Garner had a good temper at Ryan, he had no intention of looking for gerald at all.

Just when Gerald felt his future was uncertain, a hard object suddenly hit him on the head. He raised his front paws and rubbed his head. He looked up angrily. He saw a little red brown squirrel holding a nut that was too big for him in his two small paws. He threw it at Gera again, right on the bridge of Gera’s nose. Gera touched her nose, her eyes almost staring into cockfighting eyes. It thinks its nose must be red!Really, people are unlucky. Oh, no, lions are unlucky. Even squirrels bully them! Really think it’s easy to mess with, isn’t it!

Just when Jera felt that the future was bleak, a hard thing suddenly hit its head. It raised its front paws and rubbed its head, looked up angrily, and saw a small reddish-brown squirrel with two small paws holding a nut that was a little too big for it, and once again looked towards it. Throwing at Jera, it hit the bridge of Jera’s nose. Jera touched her nose, her eyes almost cross-eyed. It thinks his nose must be red!

Really, when people are unlucky, oh no, when lions are unlucky, even squirrels come to bully it! Really think it’s easy to mess with, isn’t it!

Gerald waved her paw threateningly at the little squirrel sitting in the treetop. But the little squirrel seemed to know that Gerald wouldn’t be able to climb up, and smashed a few nuts on Gerald head and body one after another, he made a face at him proudly, shook his tail and climbed flexibly along the top of the tree. Before Gerald ‘took revenge’, he disappeared.

Gerald watched him disappear angrily, then lowered her head, scratched at the nuts that fell on the ground, bit the shell of one of the nuts, and chewed it fiercely, as if it was not the nut, but the hateful one. squirrel.

Suddenly, the wind changed. A bloody wind came up, and Gerald felt a breath that made him tremble. He immediately threw away the nuts in his claws and climbed up the tree like a child. Fortunately, many dangerous hunters do not climb trees, which makes it possible for Gerald to escape from the threats of those hunters in the bushes.

The first to enter Gerald’s vision was a female porcupine with a cub in her mouth. She had just given birth and was in a weak period. Therefore, she and her child were targeted by predators. The one who chasing her was a leopard with smooth lines.

Gradually, the female porcupine was caught up and fell to the ground. Although her long thorns caused a lot of trouble to the leopard, the leopard took the opportunity to bite her throat. The little porcupine who lost its mother gave a sad whine and soon fell into a pool of blood.

Gerald lay on the tree and watched it silently. If it is in human society, it will be condemned to hurt a mother and her desperately protected child, but in nature, all this is normal. Only with strength we can live forever, otherwise we will become the prey of other creatures. If he cannot become stronger, sooner or later it will become the nutrient for the land. There is no mercy in the world of the jungle.
