Animals' 'Best': Leading the Way. Do you know others?
In the Great Thousand World, there are no wonders. Diverse species coexist in nature, and some animals can become representatives of a certain field.
1. The Largest Land Animal: African Elephant
Living in Africa, this is a herd species led by females. The length is 5.4-7.5 meters, the tail is 1-1.3 meters long, the shoulder height is 2.7-3.3 meters, and the weight is 3-6 tons. Just by looking at the data, you can't intuitively imagine how big an African elephant is. Take a look at the picture, it's basically the size of a dump truck. Moreover, African elephants are notoriously irritable and have explosive combat power. No animal dares to fight it alone, and it can take the upper hand. When it's unhappy, it bullies hippos, tigers, and lions. It seems that there is an old saying: 'One force overcomes ten.' In the face of absolute strength, any skill is just trash.
2. The Largest Cat Species: Siberian Tiger
The Siberian tiger, known as the King of Beasts, is the top killer evolved by nature. It combines high appearance, high skills, and integrates all the best. The males can reach a length of about 3 meters, with a tail length of about 1 meter, and an average weight of 250 kg for adult males, reaching 350 kg. The Siberian tiger's front legs are much thicker than an adult's, and it can directly bite a person's head open. Even ten Musashi wouldn't be an opponent of the Siberian tiger.
3. The Largest Marine Animal: Blue Whale
The blue whale is not only the largest extant animal, but also the largest animal that ever existed, belonging to mammals. The length is 22-33 meters, and a semi-trailer from head to tail is only 20 meters long. The weight is 150-180 tons. The heart looks like a car, weighing up to 500 kg, and a tongue can reach 2000 kg. It's truly huge and difficult to imagine. The newborn cubs can reach the weight of an African elephant.
4. The Tallest Animal: Giraffe
This is a well-known fact to everyone. The height of a giraffe standing upright can reach 6-8 meters, which is two or three stories high. Giraffes mainly eat leaves and basically don't eat grass. They may play with their necks like humans play with their phones, which is not good for their cervical vertebrae. Furthermore, the giraffe's tongue can reach half a meter long and can reach into its own ears.
5. The Most Spiky Animal: Honey Badger (Flathead)
When it comes to 'Flathead', it's a ruthless character who dominates the animal world. 'Fear and defeat' are not in its dictionary. It eats venomous snakes as easily as eating spicy strips, and if bitten by a venomous snake, it will just sleep for a nap. The honey badger weighs only about ten kilograms, and it behaves extremely arrogantly. It attacks ferocious beasts several times its size, such as lions and leopards. Its life motto is: 'If you don't agree, just fight.' It really doesn't look good to carry an umbrella or sweep the ground and give Flathead a chance.
6. The Longest Venomous Snake: Reticulated Python
Although the venom of the reticulated python may not be ranked in the top, it is the longest and largest snake. The longest reticulated python in China is 3.8 meters, and in other countries it is 5.5 meters. Reticulated pythons are fierce and agile. When threatened, it will raise its body by one-third, exposing its fangs, and staring at the opponent. The reticulated python is also a very intelligent snake, capable of distinguishing other snakes with venom that it wants to capture. If bitten by a reticulated python, it will generally die within an hour without medical treatment. Thinking about it is scary.
