Live Wilderness Adventure

"Andrea, did you find anything?" Ikari

In the patrol car, old Barry honked his horn to drive away the animals that surrounded him, and asked Andrea loudly, who was looking for signs in the bushes in the distance.

After receiving information about Cecil's disappearance from the doctor's assistant Brent, Barry Sr. and Mensa immediately reported the matter to the management of the conservation center, and repeatedly reminded that an illegal hunting may have occurred.

Old Barry has worked in the conservation center for decades, and his face is a very important passport in the entire conservation center. His words have attracted great attention.

The management personnel reported the suspected illegal and possible hunting operation, and the news was passed to the Wildlife Office. The executives of the Wildlife Office immediately ordered an investigation.

Among the investigators, the two discoverers, Old Barry and Mensa, are naturally indispensable. At the same time, Old Barry is a staff member with rich experience in dealing with it. Even under normal circumstances, he still has to participate in it.

The Andrea in the old Barry's mouth is an anti-poaching ranger who devotes himself to animal protection. He has received professional investigative training in wildlife crimes and retired from the army himself with outstanding abilities.

He followed old Barry to investigate Cecil's disappearance, and now the three of them are investigating the situation of the lions in Cecil's territory. anchor

Andrea didn't get up when he heard old Barry's inquiry. He raised his right hand higher than the bushes, and greeted old Barry in a posture that the other party could see.

"come and see."

Old Barry unbuckled his seat belt, and Mensa in the co-pilot picked up the shotgun on the seat and loaded it with bullets.

This is not against animals, but to guard against possible poachers.

Most of the animals on the African grasslands reproduce naturally. After generations of hunting, even the stupid ones know to stay away from humans. The real danger comes from humans themselves.

When the two came to the bush carefully and saw the terrifying scene in front of Andrea, they couldn't help but cursed.

Behind the bushes is a shot lioness, the bullet holes in the body are very conspicuous. anchor

The corpse had already been eaten, and the dried black blood under the body had already soaked the soil, hardened into lumps, and where it flowed, all the freshly grown grasses were burned to death, leaving only a few unknown mushrooms.

"The high salinity of the blood will cause the plants to dehydrate, and when it flows into the soil, it will also make the soil harden, which is not conducive to the ventilation of the roots. The combination of the two points makes it difficult to grow plants. Unless the salt is diluted with water, and then decomposed, it is possible to grow some saprophytes. plant-like plants, such as mushrooms."

Andrea squatted on the ground, picked up the clods of soil with **** and crushed them. While explaining, she looked up at the sky, felt the humidity of the air, and recalled the weather in the past two days.

He is not a professional mushroom grower, but it is natural to see him more if he stays in the forest for a long time.

For example, after a night of light rain, small mushrooms can be found growing on dead trees the next day. After careful observation, many unknown and strange laws can be summed up.

"When the blood is decomposed, it will generate a lot of heat and burn the roots. The mushrooms must have grown after the rain. With the scale of the recent rain, it has to be diluted more than once, and it has been dead for at least two days."

The expressions of everyone present were not very good. The death of the lioness, coupled with the two-day time limit, proved that the lion king Cecil must be in danger. anchor

In the wilderness, it is very difficult to encounter criminal poachers, but it is very easy to encounter the traces left by poachers.

In many cases, the crime scene must be dealt with first at the scene or after receiving an alarm. Some poaching has occurred for 8 days or 10 days or more, and the carcasses of the animals have long since decomposed.

Now being able to discover the scene within two days is extremely fast, but it is still too late for the time span of the entire poaching operation.

It's too easy to kill animals, one bullet doesn't even take ten seconds.

All tragedies are irreversible, and all that can be done is to make up for it.

"Let's dissect it first."

Andrea put on gloves, took out the corresponding knives, and skillfully cut from the bullet hole shooting, and came to an on-site dissection, which was part of the on-site treatment by the rangers. anchor

On-site handling includes dissection of animal carcasses to study weapons and poaching techniques, rangers cut open at the location of bullet holes, observe ballistics, and remove ribs if necessary to allow bullets to be removed.

The real mission of rangers is not to kill poachers, but to bring them to justice, so special attention should be paid to evidence collection.

If the stolen goods and weapons can be seized at the same time, the court can impose a maximum sentence of 45 years in prison. The reason for imprisonment is mainly because South Africa does not have the death penalty.

If there is not enough evidence, the poaching suspect can only be sentenced to 2-3 weeks in prison at most, or a fine of 500 rand.

One of the proofs of Andrea's outstanding ability is that he is extremely good at obtaining evidence. Most of the poachers in his hands will die of old age in prison.

Corruption made the lion's muscles no longer tough. The hard steel knife easily cut through the skin and flesh layer, and the strong smell exploded like a bomb~www.readwn.com~ Everyone present did not change their expressions, and they were used to it.

After some operations, Andrea quickly got what she wanted, and collected the physical evidence in a plastic bag. anchor

After taking enough photos, the three headed towards the more central part of the pride's territory.

So far, old Barry can only hope that things don't turn out to be the worst, which is the annihilation of the entire lion group.

The bumpy patrol car rolled over the uneven grass, carrying the three preoccupied people to the core of the territory.

Lions in the Kalahari Desert may occupy a territory of 119-125 square kilometers,

However, due to the abundance of land in all national parks in Kenya, the competition for the territory of the lions in them is extremely fierce. The Nairobi National Park is even more involuted to the extreme. It is not bad for the lions here to grab 3 square kilometers. The largest Its territory is only barely more than 4 square kilometers.

The Cecil pride is not in Nairobi, but it is not that big, less than five square kilometers.

Coupled with the overlap of territories between different lion groups, almost all members of the lion group are active in the central area, and it is very easy to find them. anchor

It's just that the members of the lion group generally disperse into several small groups to spend every day, and they will only come together when hunting or killing or eating together.

So when the three found all the small groups and confirmed the situation of the Cecil Lions, they found a good news and a bad news.

The good news is that things did not get to the worst point, the lions were not wiped out, and many female lions remained.

The bad news is that all the young cubs in the entire pride have disappeared.

"Wait, come and see, there are wheel marks here!"

Andrea points to the indentation in the ground.
