Mythical white tiger

 

Mythical white tiger

 

Old Lavani rode the ferocious-looking white tiger and took Agudenba to his home. Agudemba rode a donkey and followed the old man Lavani.

Agudenba looked at the Bangladeshi white tiger in front of him, and his heart was beating fast. After all, walking in front of him was a ferocious white tiger!

Why do white tigers appear in the world? Agudemba didn’t understand. But he knew that the white tiger was one of the four legendary beasts hailed by the Chinese. The white tiger, Qinglong, Suzaku and Xuanwu are known as the four ancient mythical beasts. The white tiger is the incarnation of the god of war.

He is also a god of killing. The white tiger symbolizes might and domineering and the majesty of the army.

Agudengba said to the old man Lavani: White tigers often appear in Chinese folklore. Perhaps because of their unique appearance, white tigers have been endowed with many mythological stories and symbolic meanings. But why does the white tiger in myth and legend really exist in real life? Is the white tiger's fighting power as capable of crushing all beasts as in myths and legends?

Old Lavani said to the curious Agudengba:

Let us enter the world of White Tiger together today. In real life, the white tiger is actually a mutated species from the Bengal tiger. The Bangladesh tiger has very powerful hunting skills and deterrence. It will attack any living animal that appears in front of it. Even adult Asian elephants will detour when it is eating.

The white tiger is a variant of the Bengal tiger that is different in color from the ordinary Bengal tiger, with a pink nose, white to cream fur, and black, gray or chocolate stripes. A white tiger's eyes are usually blue, but may be green or amber. Bangladeshi white tigers are often misunderstood as suffering from albinism, but they are not. A truly albinistic tiger will not have stripes. The Bangladeshi white tiger has normal black or dark brown stripes. White tigers appear white due to the lack of red and yellow pigments. This is caused by a mutation in one of their genes encoding pigments. When the gene mutates further, the stripes of white tigers will gradually fade away and become the snow tiger color type. The mutated gene is recessive, so even if both parents carry the white recessive allele, there is only a one-quarter chance of producing a white tiger. Only the Bengal tiger is known to possess the recessive gene of the white tiger.

Mr. Lavani continued: White tigers can breed at any time of the year, but the most common time for breeding is from November to April. In China, most cubs are born in the summer. The gestation period is 96 to 111 days. White tigers are solitary animals and their only long-term relationship is between mother and child.

Old Lavani said again:

White tigers eat mainly meat. It usually approaches and ambush its prey in forests or tall grass. They bite their prey directly into the throat to kill it, and drag the carcass hundreds of meters away to a sheltered place to feed. The white tiger has huge jumping ability and can jump 6 to 8 meters. Jumps of half distance are easier. White tigers are good swimmers, and water usually does not impede their movement. White tigers can easily swim across rivers up to 6-8 kilometers wide. White tigers can also climb, using their retractable claws and powerful legs. But the chance of a white tiger appearing is only one in ten thousand.

Old Lavani told Agudengba a story about the white tiger:

An albino wild male Bangladesh tiger was discovered in India, and the locals named the white tiger "Mohan". In order to breed more white tigers, the Indians let Mohan mate with normal orange tigers, but they gave birth to three litters of cubs, all of which were orange. It is speculated that the orange tiger, which may be female, does not carry the white recessive gene.

Later, the Indians let Mohan mate with one of his daughters. Later, the cubs they gave birth to were either white or orange.

Old man Lavani said with a smile: Perhaps all the white tigers that appeared later were descendants of Mohan. There are probably more than 200 white tigers around the world.

Because the white tiger is a mutant species of the Bangladesh tiger, its strength, speed, and size have been greatly improved. White tigers carry a white recessive gene. These white recessive genes are only carried by a small number of Bengal tigers and do not exist in other types of tigers. The white tiger's combat power can defeat all lions and tigers, so the white tiger is worthy of being one of the four mythical beasts.

  Old Lavani sang a song "Understanding" that praises spiritual harmony:

 

In this complex world,

Each of us is busy,

In pursuit of one's goals,

Sometimes I stop,

Feel the little happiness in life,

Small happiness may not be conspicuous,

But it warms my heart deeply,

That means someone can read you.

 

In the difficult journey of life,

You will always encounter all kinds of people and things,

When I was hunting in the woods,

Saw an injured white tiger,

He seemed lonely and helpless,

Staring at me with his teeth bared in fear,

To prevent me from taking advantage of danger and harming him,

I understand the pain in his heart.

 

I gave water to the injured white tiger,

I bandaged his wounds tenderly,

We don’t need fancy words,

All it takes is a sincere heart,

White Tiger felt lonely and helpless,

But I stayed by his side,

White Tiger understands that I am saving him,

There were actually tears in his eyes.

 

White Tiger followed me back home,

He also made me feel warm,

We will listen to each other,

We understand the union of souls,

I spoke to him from the bottom of my heart,

Whether it is joy or sadness,

I show myself truly,

We understand each other.

 

This is my relationship with Bai Hu,

This is a spiritual fit,

A kind of silent and affectionate understanding,

We can all feel each other,

In this complex world,

Seeing themselves in each other's eyes,

We found love in each other's hearts,

Love comes from the resonance of the soul.
