"In order to tame the camel, the ancient humans thought of many ways and spent a lot of energy, and in the process of repeated taming, they finally found a way to tame it with a nose stick and a rein."

"The nose is the most sensitive organ of the animal, and the nerves are the richest, especially for the camel with a developed sense of smell, the nose is the weakness, so the camel will become gentle and obedient when the nose is led."

"The sticks worn on the nose of camels, called nose strangles in Mongolian, are generally made of hard wood or horns such as red popper wood tips, red willows, yellow elms, and sheep's horns. These wooden snuffs do not damage the camel's nose even if they break. ”

In the desert, Bi Fang held down the camel's bag and moved the backpack upwards to block the view while exposing the camel's jaws.

The camel snorted and its lips were exposed, and everyone could clearly see the huge canine teeth in its mouth, which were extremely hideous.

[No wonder you can pretend to be a tiger tooth, it's too big]

[There are not a few blood holes on this bite, I'm a little scared]

[Watching the old man stretch out his hand and approach, it feels like watching a crocodile in the circus open its mouth]

During the removal of the backpack, the camel resisted slightly, but it was firmly controlled by Bi Fang.

"Most herbivores are unable to exert force when lying completely on their side on the ground, mainly due to their anatomy."

"Their bodies are big and their limbs are elongated, which makes their center of gravity too high, but they basically have no muscles below the knees, so they don't have enough strength to hold them down easily."

Bi Fang wrapped the rope into a loop and carefully passed through the camel's mouth to tighten it to prevent the camel from biting.

"Some insignificant wounds in the desert can get desert sores if they are not treated in time, and the injured area will be painful and swollen, and it will deteriorate at any time and you will not be able to walk......"

"We have to be careful and try not to get ourselves harmed in the slightest."

【Awesome】

[This is what a man should do]

[Fang Shen is my idol]

When Bi Fang put on the nose ring, the first step was completed very smoothly.

As Bi Fang said, the camel with the nose ring pierced did not react much, as if the extra piece of wood in the middle of the nose had no effect at all.

Then came the upper reins.

"In Mongolian, Burenteg is the reins of a camel, one end tied to the camel's nose stick, and the other in the hands of the shepherd."

"It plays an important role in camel equipment, so it is forbidden for the herdsmen to throw the reins indiscriminately, and to hang neatly on the sihana of the yurt when not in use."

Tying the reins, Bi Fang took out a rope cloth bag from his bag and stretched it open, presenting a structure that looked like some kind of cage.

"The thing in my hand is called the Daomu grid, which is actually used for the halter head of the male camel, which can prevent the male from biting other camels or burping, and in many places there will be colorful strips of cloth sewn on it to make the Daomu grid more vibrant."

"When the camel foams at the white foam demonstration, it forms a bright color with five or six colored strips of cloth, making the male camel more powerful, which is a unique aesthetic taste."

Put on the nose ring, put on the hitch, tie the reins, and all the tools used to pull the camel are done.

If you put on a camel saddle at the end, you can ride normally.

It's just that the tools are all appearances, and the camel riding ultimately depends on the training quality and temperament of the camel itself, and Bi Fang has only completed a face project now.

"The next step should be to recumbent and tame, but now that it's getting dark, we should find a place to spend the night as soon as possible, or go back the way we came, but before we can do that I need to help it get back to its feet."

Camels are not elephants, and if they fall, they can't get up at all, but it takes some effort.

But it could not see anything, and it did not dare to move, and when it took off its hood, it would go crazy, so Bi Fang had to help it stand and then lead the camel.

Bi Fang found a new piece of cloth, replaced his backpack with it, then made a small shovel with his tools and began to dig sand around the camel.

"We have a lot of sand nearby, and it's very easy to get a camel to stand up, just hollow out the sand under it, and it will stand up naturally."

A puff of sand was lifted and piled up all around, and the inclination of the camel changed little by little.

From lying completely flat, then bring thirty degrees, forty degrees......

By the time Bi Fang pulled the reins up from the sixty-degree slope, it was already completely dark.

It took a whole day just to catch this camel.

There was a chill in the air.

"The average temperature difference between day and night in the Sahara Desert can reach 42C, which is 40 degrees during the day and only minus 2 degrees at night, and now I can already feel the chill, and I suspect that the temperature may only be seven or eight degrees, and it will continue to fall."

It was just dark, and the temperature dropped so quickly.

A lot of viewers felt a little incredible.

It's really a "sharp" drop.

"Many people think that the reason for the large temperature difference between day and night in the desert is because the sand has a low specific heat capacity."

"During the day, light and heat are quickly absorbed by the sand particles in the top layer and then released back into the air, causing the air to overheat and the temperature to soar. At night, most of the heat in the sand quickly dissipates again, cooling the surroundings. ”

"It's not enough to explain the drastic drop in nighttime temperatures in the desert, or just one of them, but if you've experienced it firsthand, it's really cool down incredibly."

The blindfolded camel obediently walked along the leash.

Bi Fang deliberately lengthened the reins and extended the distance to three meters to prevent the camels from suddenly bursting out.

"In fact, the main reason for the rapid change in the temperature of the desert is that the air in the desert is very dry, the precipitation is low, and the clouds are scarce, which cannot absorb the heat radiation of the sun, so the temperature in the desert during the day is very high. For example, the humidity in the Atacama Desert in Chile is almost zero. ”

"The water vapor in the air acts like a huge, invisible blanket that envelops the heat on the ground and prevents it from escaping into the atmosphere."

"Air with high humidity also requires more energy to heat, which also means that it takes more time for the heat to dissipate and the surrounding environment to cool."

"That's why the temperature in the desert varies so much between day and night."

"And it is precisely because the temperature drops too fast, many times people can't react, resulting in a state of hypothermia in the body, if you don't take measures to increase the temperature, it will soon be life-threatening, which is why the cold of the desert is obviously not as exaggerated as the high latitudes, but it is still deadly."

"If it is a normal crossing, I may choose to find a place to rest as soon as possible at this time, but in order to prevent accidents, and to tame the camels as soon as possible, I will rush overnight today."

Under the starry sky, Bi Fang led the blindfolded camel and walked towards the desert.
