Anyone who raises cats to kill rats knows that cats are a cat with strong hunting ability. In addition to eating and drinking, cats often come home with various small animals in their mouths and seek credit from their owners, but occasionally they will scare their owners.

Recently, in Wisconsin, USA, a female citizen Wendy received a "gift from a black cat" from her family. However, this time the hostess was shocked by the prey brought back by the black cat, because the prey brought back by the black cat was not an ordinary "fish head", but the head of a crocodile, and the crocodile's eyes seemed to be eyeing people.

The black cat took back the head of the crocodile, which also attracted some Wendy's neighbors to come. According to people with experience in crocodiles, it belongs to an American alligator. The crocodile body is about 1 meter long. The American alligator is generally 2-3 meters long, and there is no blood on the head, so the black cat is not able to hunt crocodile of such a body. Where should they find a bargain? The crocodile may be attacked by other predators, eat the crocodile body, or some people poach crocodile, causing the death of the crocodile.

The black cat had a good intention, and it struggled to drag such a large crocodile head back into the yard. However, how to deal with the crocodile head also made Wendy embarrassed and buried it directly. He was afraid that the black cat would pull out the crocodile head with the smell of fishy smell. It seemed that it could only be kept and let the black cat chew it slowly by itself.

1. The battle between cats and crocodiles

Although crocodiles are not fish, they are reptiles living in the water, for cats, they are all "fish". However, due to the huge size of crocodiles, only big cats can prey. For example, in Asia, tigers can hunt crocodiles, in America, jaguars can restrain crocodiles, in Africa, lions, leopards, etc. can also subdue crocodiles. Of course, if a crocodile is young, the cat will also prey on it as a "lizard", otherwise when encountering an adult crocodile, the cat will be preyed on the contrary.

For example, in a zoo in Kazakhstan, there are always stray cats that will sneak into the crocodile territory to find food. It is easy to anger crocodile food by snatching food on the crocodile territory. As long as animals close to crocodiles are easily attacked by crocodiles as prey, so there are always cats that are preyed by crocodiles.

In the predator duel, body size is very important. The cat family wants to hunt these crocodiles, and at least a large cat family above the leopard level can kill crocodiles. Although the wild cat has strong fighting skills, its limited size is not the opponent of the crocodiles. Unless they are protecting the calf, the wild cat will not rashly challenge the crocodiles. Therefore, the battle between the cat family and crocodiles is that big cats are one of the natural enemies of crocodiles, and small and medium-sized cats are hard to defeat crocodiles.

2. The "repaying kindness" of cats

Cats are called "shrinkable tigers", which shows how strong their hunting skills are. Even the cats raised have strong hunting instincts. These cats like to bring various prey to their owners, such as mice, lizards, snakes and other small animals. Sometimes these small animals are still alive. The reason why cats do this is usually believed to be for several reasons:

a, Cats are vigilant personality, which is also the nature of many animals. When they catch prey, they generally do not chew on the spot, and they will take the prey to a safe place before eating. The cat also believes that it is safer to raise it, and no other creatures come to grab it.

b. The cat wants to share its prey, but thinks that the owner will not be able to hunt, so he brings the living prey back and trains the owner to hunting skills, including living mice, live snakes, etc. Last month in Chongqing, a cat was holding a live original spearhead viper in his mouth, and even bitten the owner by a poisonous snake. This is a bad thing for the cat to do.

c. Cats are not completely domesticated animals. They have a very cold personality. Sometimes they are clingy and sometimes they ignore people's love. Therefore, handing over their prey is also a kind of show of goodwill and can win praise from their owners, etc.
