Chapter 298: Into the Mountain
Black bears that are hunted must be disposed of by themselves and are not allowed to enter the market. If you feel that you have trouble dealing with it, you can also hand it over to the slaughterhouse. And Shi Wenbo said that the black bear meat is very delicious, with a lot of high-density fat, and Huangshi is also looking forward to it.
As soon as he talked about high-density fat, Huang Shi remembered the joke that Chen Lishui told him, Chen Lishui is a medical examiner, so every time some patients come to him and say, "Doctor, what should I do if my high-density fat is low?"
At this time, Dr. Chen Lishui will always tell them that your low HDL may be caused by non-pathological factors such as heavy drinking, smoking, lack of proper exercise, intake of fatty foods, and indiscriminate consumption of some therapeutic drugs. However, it may also be caused by pathological factors such as renal failure, diabetes, nephrotic syndrome, and hepatitis.
In other words, HDL and HDL are two different things, the former is high-density fat, and the latter is called "good cholesterol". High-density lipoprotein is one of the serum proteins. Abbreviated as HDL. Also known as A1 lipoprotein. Comparatively rich in phospholipids, the content in serum is about 300mg.
Its protein fraction, A-I. is about 75%, A-II is about 20%. Since it can export cholesterol and promote cholesterol metabolism, it is now being valued as a prevention factor for arteriosclerosis.
HDL carries cholesterol from surrounding tissues, converts it into bile acids or excretes it directly from the intestine through bile, and arteriography shows that HDL cholesterol content is significantly negatively correlated with the degree of arterial lumen stenosis. Therefore, high-density lipoprotein is an anti-atherosclerotic plasma lipoprotein and a protective factor for coronary heart disease. Commonly known as "vascular scavenger".
But the Chinese don't care about this, feel that these two terms are similar, so the average person can't tell the difference between lipoprotein and fat, plus the Chinese believe in eating what to supplement, for example, if the sexual function is not good, then eat more animal reproductive tools that are also OK, such as bullwhips, tiger whips, donkey whips, deer whips, especially donkey whips are big enough, known as money meat, I heard that eating is more effective than tiger whips.
Huangshi has never eaten bear meat, so he has a sense of expectation, he has eaten donkey meat and dog meat before, one is known as "dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground", and the other is known as "dog meat rolls, the gods can't stand steadily", but unfortunately he is not a foodie, after eating, there is no place to feel particularly delicious.
The reason why Shi Wenbo brought all the pots and pans this time was because this foodie was going to come to a famous dish in Sichuan cuisine "braised bear meat" in the mountains and forests, so they went to a Chinese supermarket just now and bought an old hen that had been slaughtered and cleaned and a few pairs of pork knuckles.
As for ham, shrimp meat, pork fat, sea rice, rape heart, white radish and other raw materials are naturally also equipped, and salt, monosodium glutamate, cooking wine, pepper, licorice, sugar, green onions, ginger slices and other condiments are even more numerous.
……
Vancouver is different from the rest of Canada, and on the west coast of Canada, it has a temperate maritime climate, with warm winters and cool summers, as well as vast temperate rainforests, which are home to many insects, and are ideal for hunting black bears and wild deer.
Shi Wenbo and Bai Xiaohei took turns driving, and soon arrived at the hunting area according to the map of the high-line hunting area, which, unlike Huangshi's imagination, had neither a gate nor a commercial outlet selling all kinds of hunting gear, goods, or game.
Bai Xiaohei said that although hunting is allowed in Canada, the prey is only allowed to be dragged away for enjoyment or shared with friends, but it is not allowed to be sold, and the killed prey must be transported back intact, not abandoned, and not only brought back a part.
Swenbo also said that in a hunter team he had participated in before, there was a Chinese who was fined thousands of Canadian dollars for killing a black bear and only cutting off the bear's paw and taking it away.
"This map is back for you." After Huang Shi got out of the car, he threw the map of the high-line hunting area to Swenbo, because he took it curiously just now and took a look, his eyes were full of Ewen, plus this Canada was originally vast and sparsely populated, and the hunting area was even more so, and there were few references on the map for positioning, so he couldn't understand it at all.
Svenbo took the map and folded it and stuffed it into the backpack behind his back, although they carried all the large items from Yellowstone, but they always had to pretend, and each of them carried a backpack that was almost empty, and each of them held a Remington-700 semi-automatic rifle in their hands.
According to Swainberg, the Remington-700 is a larger-caliber rifle, and the bullet is specially made, which will explode after entering the bear's body, and stop in the body without penetrating, with the aim of killing the animal in one hit, which can make the animal die instantly without causing too much pain.
Bai Xiaohei also said that the most common guns in the hunting grounds, other than Remington, are Springfield rifles, because they are all caliber 30, and this type of gun can minimize the suffering of animals.
Traps are not allowed to hunt black bears and other animals, and in the words of the locals, it is disrespectful to them. Females and cubs are also not allowed to be killed.
Shi Wenbo packed up his things, hid the car on the flat ground, pointed to the middle road and said, "Okay, then let's follow this road." ”
He had a lot of experience in hunting, and naturally he was the leader of the three people, and they all followed him forward when they saw this. It is an abandoned railway line with a high-voltage line intersecting the railway line on top.
"You see, on both sides of this railway, there are dozens of meters wide "corridors" without trees and grass, so that it is convenient for us to find prey from a distance, and from the map, the terrain of this "corridor" is relatively low, and there are some waterlogged depressions, if you are lucky, you may be able to meet animals drinking up and down the mountain. Swenbo said as he walked.
Bai Xiaohei just picked up a wooden stick from the ground, and from time to time he tossed the grass, and suddenly a gray hare jumped out, it was stunned for a moment, and then quickly ran away.
Seeing it run away, Huang Shi reacted, but unfortunately, as soon as he raised the gun, it had quickly turned around and disappeared into the jungle.
Shi Wenbo looked at Huang Shi holding a gun and was stunned there, so he smiled and said, "Hehe, there are too many hares in Canada, and they are too cheap, and to put it mildly, it is not enough to shoot rabbits with guns." ”
"Okay, forget it." Huang Shi had no choice but to put down the gun in a huff.
The three of them carried their bags and walked forward, and after walking for a short time, they saw the grass in front of them moving, Bai Xiaohei threw out a wooden stick casually, and a gray-yellow hare came out of the grass.
"Brother Huang......"
"Forget it, I'd better hit the big head." Huang Shi shook his head, it was not that he was distressed about the bullet money, but that the rabbit was too small and ran fast, so he might not be able to aim accurately, so in order to avoid being disadvantaged, it was better not to fight first.
When Bai Xiaohei walked over and picked up the stick, the hare had already run away, "Brother Shi, come and see, what kind of hoof prints are these?" ”
"This should be Hanajiko!"
Huang Shi naturally didn't know what to do, so he asked Shi Wenbo, "What is a flower print?" ”
"The flower prints are the 'flower footprints' of the stag, and their hooves are like petals." Swenbo explained.
"Oh, I see." Huangshi squatted down, and also wanted to find the flower footprints from the pile of deep or shallow hoof prints on the ground, and sure enough, there were really flower hoof prints like plum blossoms, extending all the way to the hillside woods, this should be the "deer road" where the wild deer drank water, and the traces were still very new, maybe the wild deer visited not long ago.
"Old Shi, should we stop here for a while?" Huang Shi thought to himself that this wild deer could be regarded as a big guy, and if he could kill one, he could also taste venison, which he had never eaten before.
"I don't think it's okay, it's important that we find the black bear." Obviously, Svenboard was determined to fight the black bear, and he didn't look down on these wild deer and hares.
The three of them could only walk along the "corridor" to the inside, and at this time the traces of various people and animals on the ground became more obvious, obviously, this "corridor" is also a place where hunting fans often come, but there is no shadow of prey at all, and even hares have not been found again.
"Why don't we move somewhere?" After walking for several hours, it was almost evening, and there were still no hoof prints of large animals in the "corridor", so Bai Xiaohei suggested trying to change places.
"Alright, let's go into the mountains." Shi Wenbo was also a little depressed, if he didn't try the Barrett M82A1, if they wanted to catch the black bear smoothly, they would have to hire a professional hunting guide to guide them, otherwise it would be really difficult to hit the black bear.
He felt a little embarrassed, so he continued, "Alas, I knew that the road was so difficult, so I should spend some money to go to a private hunting ground." ”
"Old history, are there many black bears in private hunting grounds?"
"No, it's because black bears are omnivorous, and their diet is mainly plants, various insects, frogs, fish, etc. The private hunting grounds in Vancouver are almost all located near the lake, so there is a greater chance of encountering black bears. ”
"Oh, is it just because of this?"
"No, Lao Huang, don't underestimate these private hunting grounds, although their territory is not as large as the public hunting area, but they have saunas, shooting ranges, guns and ammunition in them. And they will all equip us with a PH, which is a guide hunting. They are all very experienced veterans, and they can know the gender of the bear based on feces and footprints, whether it is male or female, big or small, when it has been, where it is going, and so on. So, if you just want to enjoy your safari better, then you should choose a good private hunting ground. ”
Huang Shi knew that Shi Wenbo was wrong, so he replied, "Forget it, it's all here now, what are you talking about, let's still think about how to enter the mountain, and where to spend the night is serious." ”
