The heron is a common bird which is distributed almost all over the world, and can be seen frequently in the swamp areas of northern China! The heron is relatively aloof, and we often see heron standing alone in the cold wind!
But the heron is also a kind of bold bird. It dares to eat almost everything, and can even swallow alligators and snake eels. This is a problem. The crocodile struggles for 25 minutes, while the snake eel is straightforward. A hole was drilled from the belly of the heron, and the scalp was numb in the tragic degree!
The snake eel drilled a hole from the belly of the heron and looked around!
The body length of the heron is about 1 meter, the wingspan is 1.5~2 meters, and the weight is 1~2 kg. She often forages in the water and finds what to eat. But in 2020, an amateur in Delaware The scene taken by the photographer Sam Davis was an extremely unlucky heron, because it ate a snake eel. Why can the photographer know what the heron ate?
The shot taken by Sam Davis was a serpent eel with a probe in the belly of a flying heron, which made Sam scared to see it. The snake eel is one of the notorious and uncomfortable animals on the Atlantic coast!
It’s not that it looks ugly, nor that it tastes bad, on the contrary, it tastes good! It is also a kind of economic fish. After being swallowed by a natural enemy, it can burrow out of the abdomen of the natural enemy. Just relying on this notoriety, it is estimated that everyone will shudder!
Because snake eels have very sharp tails, they are used for digging holes when they survive at the bottom of the ocean. After being swallowed, they will also use this method to drill out of natural enemies, but sometimes they hit the wrong direction. , Enters the abdominal cavity of the natural enemy, and is finally wrapped and petrified by the secreted substance, but one can imagine how painful the fish that swallowed it is simply that Monkey King got into the belly of the Bull Demon King!
And the heart of this heron is also 10,000 heads of grass and mud horses galloping past, I believe that if it can survive, it may never dare to eat snake eels again! But can it live? Some netizens think that the bird’s crop is only temporary food, and there is also the experience of surgery on the crop, and it will definitely not die. Of course, human beings will have a few stitches for it after surgery, but who will help heron? It is estimated that this heron is more fortunate than fortune!
In December 2020, a great blue heron (a species of heron) was even more fierce in Lake Apopka, Orlando, Florida. It swallowed a crocodile directly. Of course, it could not swallow an adult crocodile. Crocodile in its infancy!
But for the heron, the crocodile with almost 1/3 of its body length is really a big trouble, but the heron who looks wide-eyed and dumb is not a problem, but the crocodile It took 25 minutes and the wildlife photographer Shellie Gilliam who shot this scene was shocked!
This kind of wading bird is completely in the nature of a heron. They dare to swallow anything and eat anything. It is said that they often choke to death. However, the great blue heron who swallowed the crocodile had good luck this time. Perhaps these 25 minutes have played a big role. It is estimated that the great blue heron has already tortured to death during this period. Otherwise, if the crocodile suddenly wakes up when swallowing it, it will struggle in its abdomen, and finally the great blue heron will break its intestines. Both lose!
In October 2014, such a tragedy happened in Florida. A 1.8-meter-long crocodile and a 3.9-long Burmese python (an alien invasive animal) faced off. In the end, the crocodile lost to the python and was killed by the python. Swallowed the whole thing, but what is so dying is that the crocodile swallowed suddenly woke up, struggling, which directly broke the abdomen of the giant python, and finally died of both!
Python snakes have teeth, but the teeth are not meant to tear or chew their prey. Generally, pythons hang their prey first, but for cold-blooded animals like crocodiles, the standard of death may be stricter. It is estimated that the seven meat and eight elements twisted by the python, fainted, and then swallowed by the python, but woke up in the abdomen, the horrified crocodile struggled around, well, everyone died together!
Birds also have no teeth, or only have serrations on the edge of the beak, but that is just to prevent prey from escaping, or to filter food in the water, so this great blue heron is lucky. The little crocodile is dead. Otherwise, the death is so terrible, it is estimated that there must be a heron, after all, they are too arrogant!
