Chapter 479: Who's the Diner?
Huge searchlights were projected into the forest, and long ladder ropes fell from the sky.
Two minutes later, one after another rainforest workers emerged from the self-elevated ladder and climbed down little by little, to the vicinity of the tree hole.
The staff carried the incubator, picked up the snake eggs on the ground, and observed them with a flashlight, and the light projected the snake eggshells, reflecting a bright orange light.
After confirming that it was correct, they put it into the incubator one by one, and the people who came down behind them were even more amazed.
The remnants of the snake eggs of the wild Burmese python are still survivors of the python bull war, rare, really rare, and can be put up in a special plaque in the zoo to illustrate.
On a certain day, the offspring of the white-limbed bison and the wild Burmese python were brought back by the famous explorer, biologist and geographer Bi Fang.
How awesome.
On the ladder rope, Director Zhou of the last to come down from the reserve, Bi Fang didn't expect that Zhou Weisheng would come in person, although he was quite old, his skills were still not bad, and he fell to the ground steadily.
The two naturally greeted each other, and Zhou Weisheng also praised Bi Fang's performance, and finally promoted a wave of scenic tourism with the audience.
Today is the fifth day of the live broadcast, and the number of tourists coming to Banna Scenic Area has increased significantly with the naked eye, which is gratifying.
It's just a white publicity effect, spending 10 million on advertising, it may not be as effective as a live broadcast for a day.
The only problem is......
"You didn't find the body of the Burmese python?" Bi Fang, who heard Zhou Weisheng tell about his experience along the way, was surprised that such a large Burmese python corpse had disappeared before the personnel from the reserve came?
Zhou Weisheng nodded: "We searched the coordinates you gave, but we didn't see the corpse of the Burmese python, and then we searched along the way, but we didn't find it, but it doesn't matter, it may have been dragged away by wild beasts." ”
"Dragged away by a wild beast?" Bi Fang frowned, the Burmese python died in the afternoon, and there was only a few hours in between, it was not impossible to say that it was not long, it was not impossible to say that it was short, "Have you found any traces of wild beasts nearby?" ”
Zhou Weisheng was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed: "I didn't pay attention to this, we went to the jungle, and we left when we found everything, thinking that we might be eaten by something." ”
Conservation personnel often put trackers on protected animals they encounter, and there have been many cases of accidental death and being eaten, but not always the corpses can be successfully collected, but I don't think it's strange.
Bi Fang's brow furrowed even deeper, but after a moment, he relaxed again.
Maybe it was really eaten by something, all kinds of meat eaters in the rainforest are not uncommon, Bi Fang thought to himself.
"By the way, we also want to take this Zhoushan cobra away." Zhou Weisheng squatted down and looked at the slightly swaying bark frame, "The stock of Zhoushan cobra snake venom is not enough, and now there are fewer and fewer wild Zhoushan glasses, and there are not enough farmed ones, so this one is just brought back to extract venom to make snake venom." ”
"Take it if you want, it's useless to stay with him anyway, and let him go tomorrow." Bi Fang waved his hand, not caring at all.
Zhou Weisheng nodded, and immediately a staff member came forward to catch the snake, they took out a plastic board, cleaned up the soil around the bark frame, inserted the plastic plate at the bottom, and then walked towards the snake catcher bag with the entire bark cage, and then pulled out the plastic plate and poured it into it.
The Zhoushan cobra, which was thrown by a beating, struggled violently and tried to jump out of the barrel, but the next moment it was covered with a lid and fell into darkness again.
Catch the snake, store it, get on the helicopter, and do it all in one go.
No surprises.
They are all professional, how can there be an accident, as a staff member in the rainforest area, the most common thing I usually see is poisonous snakes, and they are all veterans of catching snakes.
If you plug in the snake rod, no snake can escape.
After doing all this, Zhou Weisheng and the others did not disturb Bi Fang to continue the live broadcast, and after chatting a few words, he climbed the ladder rope with the others and left.
The huge roar gradually faded away, and Bi Fang crossed his hands on his hips, a little proud: "Now the owner of the tree cave is really me." ”
Unexpectedly, Zhou Weisheng came to take snake eggs and took the cobra away, which can be regarded as solving a big trouble.
[What will happen if the snake is caught]
[Will be imprisoned in a small black room]
"It will be squeezed venom, and Zhoushan cobra snake venom can be made into freeze-dried products and snake venom enzymes, which can be used to make serum." After a pause, Bi Fang added, "It's still its breeding season, and it may be caught and bred for a wave, and it should be released back into nature after that." ”
When catching wild animals, this is basically the process.
What can be reused is extracted, cherished, and raised, and then released back to nature when the wave is over.
[Breeding? I'm happy, is that what I think? After finishing Dashan No. 1, Zhoushan No. 1 appeared! 】
[A day later, Zhoushan Cobra: What the hell is this paradise? In a month, let me go, what the is this juicing hell]
[Ah, this, squeezed dry in every sense]
Back in the tree hole, Bi Fang raised a torch to illuminate the surroundings, this tree hole was not only large, but also very high, and the middle was almost completely hollow.
Above the firelight, there was a space that could never shine.
"There should have been a tree here, but unfortunately it was strangled to death, and now there is no one left on it, think about it, such a large forest, the banyan tree has grown here for I don't know how long, and it is impossible for the strangled plants to survive."
[Strangulation, what is strangulation? 】
[The anchor is too professional, netizens can't keep up]
"The fruit of the banyan tree is often carried by small birds and other animals to the branches or cracks in the bark of the host plant, and these seeds will sprout, take root and grow."
"The growing stems will wrap the host tree tighter and tighter, weaving into a natural 'flower basket' of different styles, you look at this tree hole, if there is a big tree in it, does it look much more natural."
Bi Fang stretched out his hand to pick up all the dead branches and leaves on the ground, and leveled out a clearing, which would be his bed tonight.
From intimacy to revenge, the host tree eventually dies due to overload and nutrient deficiencies, and these strangled plants eventually become independent trees.
The banyan tree is the most typical "chronic killer" in the plant kingdom, and it is even more ferocious to the strangled trees.
Underground, they rob water and nutrients, leaving strangled trees hungry and thirsty.
On the ground, its basket-like root system tightly binds the trunks and branches of the strangled trees, inhibiting their thickening and preventing the transport of water and nutrients.
In the canopy, the strangled tree quickly branches, grows leaves, and competes with the strangled for space and sunlight.
Almost all the strangled plants in the rainforest are killed, and the stranglers take their place and slowly enjoy the remains of the strangled as nourishment.
"But this is nature, life and death change, dead wood sprouts, every life has its own way of life, they need nourishment, we also need food, so let's solve the problem of dinner first."
There is no need to think so much about the reincarnation of life and death, think so much, it is better to think about what to eat at night.
Cooking time is the happiest time of the day.
Eating food into your stomach, feeling the energy brought by its digestion, and supporting yourself to live is the simplest and basic meaning of life.
Reloading the materials that had been poured on the ground into the bark box, Bi Fang looked around, feeling so relaxed for the first time.
"It's actually a good thing that the owner of the tree cave is the Zhoushan cobra, the cobra has a very fierce temperament, and near their territory, there are basically no other small animals."
"Now that the master is gone, this is a rare safe zone, and at least for a few days, no other small creatures will dare to come."
Bi Fang chose to light a fire three meters outside the big tree to cook, or eat fish and wild vegetables.
Although the space of the tree hole is relatively large, because it is a tree hole, it is destined to not be able to make a fire inside, which is not only flammable, but also not ventilated, and is easy to be choked by smoke.
"After eating fish for four days in a row, I now feel that I have a fishy smell on my body, but I can't help it, in order to ensure energy intake, I can only eat these things, and occasionally catch some bugs to improve the taste."
Stick a few cicadas you caught earlier with a branch, which is the most common edible insect, but unfortunately there is not enough oil to fry it.
A big fish, a few bites of vegetable soup, and a few roasted insects are Bi Fang's dinner today.
The pristine and blissful atmosphere emerges, and in the midst of a wild rainforest full of life-and-death crises, the satisfaction of being safe is unparalleled.
After all, human beings are creatures that are happy to be stable.
Many people also feel very romantic, in the primeval jungle, in front of the huge tree hole, dig a fire pit barbecue, like a fairy tale, if you can experience it in person, you are willing to spend as much as you want.
It's a pity that thinking about today's bull python war, everyone still has to dispel this idea.
It's too dangerous, even if you know that lying on the ground can avoid the attention of the white-limbed bison, but most people are scared stupid at the first moment they see the bison, how can they remember this.
Safety manuals, all kinds of survival knowledge, during the school period has been repeatedly promoted, many people do not know how to do, but when the danger really comes, the brain will still be blank, usually know more, it is difficult to use it at critical moments.
There was no entertainment at night, and before going to bed, Bi Fang found a few thick rattans, and there was nothing else in the rainforest, but there were many vines.
Windmill vine, flat vine, Tokyo large-leaf vine, pterodrupe vine, etc.
Vines wrapped around trees, trees wrapped around vines, large and small, thick and thin, long and short, from fences to ropes, from weaving to knotting, can meet all your needs.
Wrap the thick rattan around the roots of the banyan tree and paste it with mud to perfectly isolate the outside world and prevent small animals from accidentally entering.
Just as Bifang was filling in the soil, filling in this, a huge white worm suddenly jumped into his hand.
The white worm is as long as two knuckles, and the width is almost the same.
Suddenly caught in his hand, the white worm writhed its fat body and tried to escape, but the next moment, it was pinched up, and it suddenly struggled harder.
Bi Fang held the torch closer, and under the light of the fire, the white worm became fatter.
[I'm a weird, fat bug! 】
【Big... Great white worms? 】
[The green worm has mutated? 】
"It's a grub." Bi Fang pinched it, fat and fat, as if the white worm would burst out of the pulp in the next moment, "I seem to have said it once yesterday or the day before yesterday, but I didn't expect to meet it today." ”
"This thing is a larva of the beetle family, and the larvae of the beetle family are called grubs, and they look almost the same, and only after breaking the pupa do you know what kind of insect it is, it may be a unicorn fairy, or it may be a beetle."
Bi Fang didn't know what kind of bug he was holding.
"They lay their eggs in soft, moist soil, and each female can lay about 100 eggs.
Bi Fang rummaged through the soil just now, and sure enough, he found two more, and he was immediately happy.
"Hey, this is an extra meal for me, this guy's protein is six times that of beef, it looks like I have breakfast tomorrow."
[Damn, can this thing be eaten?] A little yue】
[What's this, isn't this thing a large cicada chrysalis?] Haven't eaten a cicada chrysalis? 】
[Eating big white worms is a beautiful thing]
[I can't accept it, it's a bit heavy.] 】
The harvest is always so sudden.
It's a rainforest, and you never know what creatures you'll encounter in the next moment.
Maybe it's a good meal, maybe it's ...... It's still a good meal.
The surrounding soil was all stripped away, and the twelve big white insects had a great harvest, and Bi Fang stuffed them all into a bamboo tube and sealed them with leaves and soil.
When everything is done, turn off the live stream.
"Sleep!"
......
In the middle of the night, in a bush not far from the tree hole, a purple flower that no one found quietly bloomed, spreading pollen.
The evening breeze blows, and the flower branches sway.
