Beast Studio

Liu Wei looked up.

The eagle owl is more than fifteen meters from the ground, which means he has to climb this big tree to get the chance to contact the eagle owl.

"Brothers, I'm going to climb this tree and reach the position of the eagle owl, maybe the picture is a little shaking, please understand more!"

"Sister Li!"

"Awei, pay attention to safety at night!"

"The tree is too high, do your best, Awei!"

"Don't worry, have you forgotten the scene of Awei climbing a tree to tease a Bengal tiger?"

With the aid of gecko shoes, Liu Wei climbed the tree more easily. He stopped on the branch under the eagle owl.

Turn off the thermal imaging function and adjust the light of the headlights. "Brothers, the owl's vision is very sensitive. Too strong light will cause damage to its eyes, so we can shoot it with low light. Can we see it? 1."

"111111"

The light blue light shone on the body of the eagle owl. It bent its head and stared at the live broadcast room in Liu Wei's hand. It generated a strong curiosity, the head twisted very flexibly, like a dancing Xinjiang girl.

Liu Wei said to the live broadcast room: "Brothers, it's curious now what is in my hand? I have been watching.

You see, its head is very flexible and can twist at high frequency.

The owl's head can be twisted up to 270 degrees, which is very rare in the animal world. For it, the flexible head can help it pay attention to the movement of the surrounding environment in order to catch prey more smoothly.

We all know that a large amount of twisting of the head for a long time will cause poor blood circulation and dizziness, but the owl will not.

Because its body structure has evolved to adapt to the need for its head to be greatly reversed. "

Liu Wei pointed another finger at the neck of the owl and said, "The owl's neck bones are wider, and there will be no vascular compression due to a large twist of the head, and there is a blood reservoir in the large artery above its neck. , Can continuously supply blood to the brain, so even if it is engaged in frequent movements of the head, it will not cause faint and discomfort."

"Oh~"

The eagle owl floated in the chest, making a dull sound, regained its curiosity, and his two big eyes stared back at the grass in front.

Liu Wei: "I didn't let it feel threatened. Its mind is on the active prey. The animal in the thermal imaging picture you just saw may become its dinner tonight!"

Liu Weigang finished.

The eagle owl spread its wings, fluttered twice and flew out.

"Lying trough~"

Liu Wei felt a gust of wind hit his face.

"Brothers, I can see clearly. The wings of this eagle owl spread more than one meter. Even in the family of eagle owls, it is rare. I estimate that the weight of this eagle owl should be more than 5 pounds. It is already very big in the big family of owls!"

Liu Wei flipped the camera, the eagle owl spread out his wings, and glid away. After finding the target, the entire front body, including the head, swooped down, almost vertical, before reaching the ground, it quickly extended its curved claws and landed perfectly.

"Have you caught it?"

"Night, there is no sound at all, killing is invisible!"

"Awei, will it come back to the tree?"

"It should be possible," Liu Wei said, "The owl also has a strong sense of territory, and its brain will construct a map of the surrounding environment to ensure that it has no obstacles when flying and hunting.

It has just chosen to observe here and launch an attack. Obviously it is very familiar with this flight line. After it finishes eating, it will return to this tree!"

Zoom in.

The eagle owl had a mouse on its hooked beak, and the head of the mouse was no longer visible, and it was swallowed into its mouth.

It swallowed the whole mouse into the stomach bit by bit.

"Lying trough, swallow directly!"

"The first time I saw an owl swallowing its prey, I had raised it before, but I cut the meat to it!"

"Awesome, it's completely different from the owl I remember!"

"I always thought that the owl was a kind of docile bird. After watching Awei live broadcast, I realized that it was a raptor, and I gained knowledge!"

After the eagle owl swallowed the mouse, it twisted its neck and looked around, then flapped its wings and flew up. Instead of returning to the tree as Liu Wei predicted, he chose to continue to glide on the grass, gliding very low. Almost close to the ground!

"Come, it's going to start again!" Liu Wei with night vision eyes, very clearly watching the eagle owl's every move on the grass, fascinated.

The eagle owl stretched out its curved claws again, stopped at the spot, and twisted its head around to glance around, as if to determine whether it was safe now.

Wait until it is confirmed, then use the mouth to pick up the captured mouse, the same way, swallow the whole one bite by one bite.

"Bite a mouse!"

"I can't see it. I have a big head and I can eat it!"

"Why does it only eat mice? Didn't we just see a lot of rabbits just now? Why doesn't it catch rabbits and eat them?"

"Probably because the rabbit is too big!"

Liu Wei sat on a relatively sturdy tree branch, and science popularized: "The eagle owl has a wide range of predators, including foxes, hedgehogs, porcupines, etc. For it, it is not a matter of prey to eat a rabbit, but it has a Predatory habits-selective predation.

We often hear people mention that owls are beneficial creatures and play an important role in environmental protection.

Everyone knows that the reproductive ability of rabbits is very strong. If there are no natural enemies to let them breed, the ecology will be destroyed, and the eagle owl will choose to prey when the number of rabbits exceeds the environmental load.

Perhaps for a long time, it will use rabbits as the preferred food, the purpose is to maintain ecological balance.

Although we see a lot of rabbits tonight, it may be necessary for the eagle owl's judgment to raise a baby. On the contrary, it feels that the rats have been moving too frequently recently, so it will choose to prey on the rats.

The owl has a nickname called Environmental Guardian, which is based on its predatory habits! "

In the live broadcast, the audience suddenly got a magical creature like an owl, a bit like the feeling of doing things with a fixed salary, civil servants in the animal world!

Liu Wei continued to sit on the tree and waited for the eagle owl. He believed that after the eagle owl was full, he would return to the tree to stay in accordance with its familiar flight path.

"Lying trough, another one!"

"This is the third one! Eat it!"

"Hahahaha, first place to eat!"

"..."

"Cross the sun, the fourth one!"

"Don't eat it anymore!"

The live broadcast was filled with exclamation.

After the eagle owl ate the fourth mouse, it barked twice, walked a distance on the grass, and then flew up, flying in the direction of Liu Wei.

"I'm coming!"

"Awei, you are right, it really came back!"

The eagle owl flew directly to Liu Wei sitting on this tree trunk this time, and the dark brown claws on his feet were hooked on the branches like a lock.

He turned his head ninety degrees and stared at Liu Wei with big eyes. Liu Wei couldn't help laughing when he saw the long eyebrows raised above his eyes.
