Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl Chapter 92 – Chapter 92 Chapter 92 Trashy But Brave

Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Trashy, But Brave Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Trashy, But Brave After eating for nearly an hour, the Snow Leopard left half a sheep's head behind and walked away.

“What a waste, right? Is it not said that Snow Leopards can go for days without hunting after a full meal? Which Leopard gets to eat sheep every single day?”

Yin Li criticized, thinking how wasteful it was. Did the Rock Sheep that offered its body deserve this?

Unexpectedly, a little while later, another Snow Leopard that was visibly smaller in size came over, sniffed the remaining carcass, looked around, and decisively dragged it away.

Ran away…

It was difficult to say whether the male Snow Leopard had intentionally left it there, or whether the smaller one had come to scavenge, or even intended to.

By seven o'clock, other creatures became more active, while the Snow Leopard was nowhere to be seen.

Mr. Lepus and his little wife had gone back to sleep, and Jinya couldn't hold on either; she crawled into the small cave and fell asleep deeply.

“Shall we leave or stay another day?”

Chen Ying fiddled with the drone for a bit before finally giving up and packing it away.

Yin Li looked around, especially toward Streamstone Beach, where numerous rare plants that are seldom seen at lower altitudes grew. Although not his specialty, he had been interested in these since childhood. It wasn't in his nature to leave empty-handed after making the rare trip up here.

Yin Li went to photograph flowers and alpine plants, while Chen Ying walked down a bit with his camera, wondering if he might encounter that poor Flower Leopard.

After walking a short distance, a feeling of being watched suddenly swept over him, and he quickly turned around to see, not far behind him on a tree, a Flower Leopard with a dappled coat lazily lying on the branch.

His heart immediately pounded like a drum.

Yawning, the Flower Leopard turned its head in another direction and closed its eyes to rest.

Chen Ying grabbed his phone and took a picture with a snap.

He would have to go back and tattle on Leopard Sister later; this youngster deliberately scared him—deserved a beating!

To tell the truth, the fact that Chen Ying could be surrounded by so many peculiar animals was itself a bit outside the scope of normal human interaction.

For example, right now, after making sure the Flower Leopard meant no harm, he still went to tease it.

“Heard your brother-in-law gave you a beating? Now he's with your sister raising cubs; why don't you take the chance to retaliate? If you really can't beat your brother-in-law, even smacking your nephews would do.”

He earnestly stirred up trouble, causing the Flower Leopard to have a hard time sleeping, and it opened its mouth to roar at him.

“What are you roaring at me for? If you're capable, go beat up your brother-in-law.”

He kept muttering under his breath while taking photos from every angle with his phone.

Leopard furious!

Unable to bear it anymore, the Flower Leopard leaped down from the tree and pounced towards Chen Ying.

By chance, Yin Li saw this and was so frightened that he dropped his camera and ran over.

Chen Ying, in turn, promptly fell down and didn't forget to use his phone to take a close-up shot of the Flower Leopard gazing down at him from above, with its whiskers nearly touching the lens.

After knocking down Chen Ying, the Flower Leopard lightly hopped over him and ran away.

Yin Li rushed over to help Chen Ying up, still shaken.

“It's nothing, don't panic, I was just messing with it.”

“Messing around without a care! What if it wasn't just playing around with you, and it decided to take a bite? You'd be waiting for death!”

Yin Li was genuinely angry, leaving Chen Ying behind to retrieve his camera and marched back to the campsite, lips tightly sealed.

Chen Ying knew he had gone too far today. He could be sure that the Flower Leopard meant no harm, but others could not be sure of that. And Yin Li was right; what if the Flower Leopard suddenly changed its mind? Could he then go and negotiate with the King of Hell?

He caught up to apologize sincerely, swearing over and over that he absolutely would not do such life-threatening things again. Only then did Yin Li's expression soften a bit, but he still refused to talk to him.

Feeling guilty, Chen Ying dutifully followed behind Yin Li all day, helping with photography and note-taking, behaving in a way that was completely unlike him.

At dusk, Mr. Lepus went hunting with his little wife and sister. The Flower Leopard did not show up. Mr. Lepus said it did not come every day, only after quite a long time since Flower Leopard's territory was large and it often needed to patrol and refresh its markings.

However, the Snow Leopard was sure to come both morning and evening, more punctual than clocking in for work.

Having brought no food tonight, it made a round and then left. Its path was the same as the one the Little Snow Leopard had taken when stealing food in the morning.

“Is that Little Snow Leopard a sister or a brother?”

Chen Ying used the binoculars for a while but too many rocks blocked his view. They had spent three nights in the high mountain area, and on the fourth day, they were packing up to head down the mountain.

In addition to capturing rare flora and fauna, Chen Ying also recorded a video of Snow Leopard, the scoundrel, hunting Rock Sheep.

It happened yesterday morning.

At that time, Chen Ying was capturing photos near Streamstone beach of a group of Rock Sheep climbing, and he accidentally spotted the scoundrel Snow Leopard hiding under a large rock while another Little Snow Leopard was lurking about ten meters below it.

At this moment, a Rock Sheep stopped more than twenty meters away from the two Snow Leopards, looking at its young, as if urging it to move faster and keep up with the family's pace.

Just then, the Snow Leopard suddenly leaped out, slapping its paw towards the Rock Sheep that had its back turned toward him.

Startled, the Rock Sheep stumbled forward two steps and, unbelievably, turned around to see who had attacked it!

And in that moment of turning back, the Snow Leopard leaped again, biting into the Rock Sheep's throat and clinging to its body with all four claws as they both tumbled down the rocks.

Chen Ying was stunned at the sight.

Wasn't the Snow Leopard hurting itself just as much as its prey?

With that height and the jagged rocks, didn't it hurt?

But the fact was that the Snow Leopard was completely fine.

Once it confirmed the Rock Sheep was truly dead, it stood up, indifferently glanced at the other Rock Sheep scrambling upwards, shook its fur, bit the sheep's neck, and dragged it onto a rock before starting its meal.

(You may not approve of my leopard qualities, but you can't deny my strength.)
Before long, the Little Snow Leopard also dragged a Rock Sheep lamb onto another rock to enjoy.

Rock Sheep: Only our achievements in getting hurt happen every day!

When Chen Ying and Yin Li left, two Snow Leopards, one tall and one short, stood on the rocks, watching their retreating figures.

“Brother Ying, that Snow Leopard must be the king of this area, right? Do you think Leopard Sister could win against it?”

It's hard to say, it depends on individual differences.

Moreover, there's a difference in strength between the Asian Leopard and the African Leopard, so it's challenging to determine who holds the edge.

But seeing how foolish Leopard Sister's brother looks, I guess it would be an even match at best with that scoundrel Snow Leopard.

What's more important is that the territories of the Leopard and the Snow Leopard in the southwest seem to overlap slightly, but in reality, unless it's the food-scarce winter, they would avoid each other even if they meet.

Without footage of the Snow Leopard and Leopard fighting, it's hard to say who's stronger.

They ascended from the Southern Slope, and they planned to descend through the Northern Slope on their return, to record the vegetation and animal distribution on both sides.

When they reached the area between the high mountain meadow and the shrubbery, Chen Ying suddenly grabbed Yin Li, silent, and with a slight tilt of his chin, he gestured to look ahead.

Between the shrubbery and the meadow, there was a sparse area where a large White-tailed deer with branches for antlers slowly emerged from the bushes.

Upon seeing Chen Ying and Yin Li, the White-tailed deer stopped in its tracks, looked deeply at them for a moment, turned around, showing off its beautifully shaped rump.

And that characteristic heart-shaped white patch!
