Han Peacock observed the hole that was covered by the old elephant, each of the stones outside the cave weighed five or six hundred catties, and there were some thick teak trees with huge root systems, placed horizontally and vertically around, such a place, only elephants can enter and exit at will.

Han Peacock took out the sapper catalpa that was ready for the sapper, cleaned up the tree trunks that were blocking the way, and then took out a crowbar, intending to pry off a few stones silently.

In this kind of silent night, if you can not make a loud noise, Han Peacock still doesn't want to make it.

Han Peacock has strength, so it is really not difficult to pry open a few stones of several hundred catties.

Pry open the trees and boulders piled up at the entrance of the elephant cemetery, and just when Han Peacock hesitated whether to enter immediately, an old elephant that was dying staggered out, but was then easily knocked down by the crowbar in Han Peacock's hand, and before dying, it let out several long mournful howls.

Looking at the old elephant that fell to the ground, Han Peacock was in a cold sweat, this old elephant was too capable of holding on, it had been five days, and it hadn't died yet.

Fortunately, it was too weak, otherwise, Han Peacock would not have been able to knock it down with a crowbar.

Bypassing the huge old elephant, Han Peacock took out a headlamp and put it on his head, and entered the cave, he was not afraid of being found out that there was a light here.

When the light shone on the dark cave, Han Peacock was stunned.

The cave was full of white bones and tusks, all piled up in a dry place deep in the cave, and there was nothing but some pools.

Han Peacock looked at the orderly elephant tomb in amazement. I took another look at the dead old elephant, could it be that after it came in, it gathered those elephant bones and tusks over there?

Picking up a pair of tusks, Han Peacock looked carefully, and the top pairs were actually white.

The ivory on the market is divided into African ivory and Asian ivory, African ivory is generally longer, and its dentin is relatively hard and milky white. The best quality is mainly from Tanzania and Cameroon.

Asian tusks are generally shorter. The color is white but easy to turn yellow, and the elephants here must belong to Asian elephants, and now Han Peacock holds a pair of tusks in his hand. It's clear that it hasn't turned yellow yet. This shows that the elephant did not die for a long time.

Come to think of it. Han Peacock's face changed, and he searched it quickly, and quickly. From the top of this bone mountain, he saw a lot of white elephant bones, of course, he also picked out four pairs of ivory, plus the previous pair, it was already no pair.

This means that in recent years, at least five elephants have been buried in this elephant tomb, and if you add the two elephants who have been here in the past few days, it means that seven elephants have died in turn in recent years.

What does this mean? This means that there is a large herd of elephants in the vicinity, otherwise there would not be so many elderly elephants here.

Han Peacock played with these ivory and put it away, such a new tooth is prohibited from trade in China, if it is discovered, it will only be destroyed, and Han Peacock will face this great trouble, so this kind of thing is absolutely impossible to take out in a grand manner.

However, this new ivory can not be taken out, but the old ivory, no one cares, to say that the protection of rare animals and plants, the laws of some Western countries are stricter than China, but in these countries, the old ivory products in China can be circulated.

Therefore, there are many people who say that the whole world prohibits the trade of ivory and products. That's all.

Some countries want to ban the ivory trade, but others don't want to! Especially in some countries in Africa, they still rely on ivory products to stimulate their domestic economies!

Han Peacock has carving skills, so he is not afraid that the ivory in his hand will not be able to circulate, of course, he has no idea of circulation now, after all, he is not short of money.

Han Peacock kept digging through some elephant bones, and from these elephant bones, he could even tell whether it was a male elephant or a female elephant, because female elephants do not have too long tusks.

All elephants have tusks, but not every elephant has long tusks.

African elephants have large tusks for both males and females, while Asian elephants only have male elephants, and female elephants do not have exposed tusks.

Due to the high level of poaching, some Asian elephant bulls now have no tusks, which must be the result of human selection: bulls with tusks are hunted, and only the occasional bulls without tusks are spared.

As a result, more and more of their offspring, due to genetic reasons, are not born with those long tusks.

Han Peacock's movements were very fast, at first he picked up some old ivory to check, but when he got to the back, he became a mechanical operation to pick up elephant bones and put away the ivory.

After removing some of the elephant bones piled up on it, Han Peacock pulled out a pair of huge tusks, and Han Peacock weighed it with his hand, this pair of tusks is one meter four or five, such a big ivory is really rare.

The surface of the tooth is light red with longitudinal lines of shallow grooves, which is obviously an old tooth, because the new tooth is off-white and the old tooth is yellow.

These two tusks should be the tusks of adult elephants, huge, smooth, and hard, and they are very imposing when they look at them, which is completely two levels from the ivory that Han Peacock put away before.

After putting away this pair, Han Peacock immediately found another pair of tusks, which were about 80 cm long and 10 cm in diameter, and from the analysis of the elephant's skull, it actually looked like the head of a female elephant, which made Han Peacock a little surprised.

He hesitated, and this time instead of just the ivory, he put away all the bones and set them aside, not with the tusks he had collected earlier.

As the bones continue to be excavated under the coffin, the older the bones beneath them, the longer these dead elephants will die.

Han Peacock thought that maybe he could find the evolution of Asian elephants from here.

From the disappearance of the tusks of the female elephant to the fact that the tusks of the male elephant will also disappear, there must be a gradual process, and perhaps in this elephant tomb, there is the answer.

Thinking of this, Han Peacock sped up again, this time he no longer selected, but directly collected all the elephant bones exposed into the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag.

Anyway, the internal space of the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag is huge, and it must be right to put it all away, even if a lot of elephant bones prove useless in the future, he will throw it away.

Han Peacock put away piles of elephant bones layer by layer, and among these elephant bones, some long tusks will appear from time to time, and these tusks have a tendency to grow longer and longer.

From the beginning when he saw the tusks of one to four or five meters, he was shocked, to the numbness at the end, it was actually completed in a very short time.

Han Peacock's movements were fast, and he just found a pair of long tusks, and then he was attracted by a longer and thicker pair of tusks.

He even saw a pair of tusks nearly two meters long, such tusks were already like a sword, and they were all green, which made Han Peacock directly put it aside, wanting to find a time to play with it carefully.

In addition to such a pair of special tusks, Han Peacock also looked for some other ones, such as sky blue tusks and light red tusks.

Among these tusks, the most milky white ones, especially the lower ones, are more milky white, and then yellow.

There are not many light red ones, but there are many more of them compared to green ivory.

The green ivory Han peacock saw a total of three pairs, while the blue tusk, he only saw one pair.

It was the first time Han Peacock had seen blue tusks, so he was very surprised, even when he saw green tusks, he was not so surprised.

Although the green ivory was very precious, he had never even heard of the blue ivory.

Just as Han Peacock wanted to carefully put away the huge pair of blue tusks, he inadvertently skimmed over the pile of elephant bones and found that there seemed to be a lot of things in it that emitted a blue glow.

Han Peacock immediately began to rummage through them, and soon, he pulled out five pairs of blue tusks, Han Peacock looked at these obviously larger elephant bones, and he suddenly thought of something.

Are these prehistoric elephants?

Han Peacock only knows in the information that the tusks of prehistoric elephants may be blue, of course, he has only seen it, and no one seems to have seen the real thing.

Thinking of this, Han Peacock said that the history of this elephant tomb should be very long, and it may be able to extend to prehistory.

If it is really handed down from prehistory and has been used as a cemetery for elephants, doesn't it mean that from prehistory to the present, this whole book is a complete book of elephant evolution?

Thinking of this, Han Peacock turned around and collected the bones of the elephants that had died in modern times that he had abandoned before, although these were not of high value, they could form a complete history of elephant evolution, which was still a bit of reference value.

However, with this idea, Han Peacock was puzzled again, if this elephant tomb is really handed down from prehistory, then there are a lot of elephant bones here?

Although his heart was full of doubts, Han Peacock didn't have time to waste, so his movement to collect elephant bones did not slow down.

I'm going to leave here tomorrow, and after Han Peacock wants to empty these elephant bones, he will have to search this cave carefully, maybe there are other gains!

He thought very well, but the situation here was obviously beyond his expectations, as the layers of elephant bones on it were put away by him, and when the place where the elephant bones were placed had been dug out by him more than ten meters deep, he found a behemoth.

This is also the skeleton of an elephant, which is very large, with more than three meters of tusks at the front, followed by a skull and jaw.

The tusks are more than 3 meters long, like two long swords, can such an elephant still be called an elephant?

Therefore, this kind of elephant should be called sabertooth, sabertooth elephant was widely distributed millions of years ago, and it was distributed in many places in Asia, and its fossils have also been found in the three countries of A. (To be continued......)
