Live Wilderness Adventure

"What's that over there! A carcass of an elephant, that's rare."

Standing on the top of the slope, Bi Fang was looking at the safety of the surrounding environment, but suddenly saw a mountain of meat lying on the open space in the distance. Looking carefully, he found that it was the corpse of an elephant, hovering in the sky directly above. vulture.

This surprised everyone. Many people had never seen the elephant's corpse, which was a great novelty.

【Is it killed by poachers? 】

[It is possible, I heard that poachers in Africa are rampant]

【That's why you should be careful】

[Maybe he was bitten to death by something? 】

[Yes, it is possible]

All kinds of speculations came out, but if you want to know the truth, you still need to observe carefully before you can draw a conclusion, so everyone asked Lao Fang to come forward to check.

If it was another anchor, everyone might tell the other party to be careful not to overturn the car.

But for Bi Fang, the fans have long known his ability, and their inner thirst for knowledge is ready to stir, and they immediately start to agitate.

Do you understand the gold content of the title of Fangshen, and the tactics are backward.

【Why don't you go and have a look】

【Yes, yes, go to Kangkang in the past】

[Charge forward, I can't just ignore it! 】

Even if the audience doesn't ask for it, with Bi Fang's usual style, it will definitely pass.

However, in view of the possibility of poachers, Bi Fang did not act rashly. First, he observed around and found no obvious traces around the elephant corpse, and there was no bunker where a car could be hidden.

"I see that the corpse has been eaten, but the flesh and blood tissue exposed inside is already very dark, and there are also vultures on the body. It seems that a long time has passed since the elephant died, and the corpse has gradually decayed. If this is the case, Even if it is artificial, there is a high probability that we will never meet someone who does it."

"Simply put, it's too late."

After explaining a sentence, Bi Fang ran and slid down the hillside, with small gravels rolling down from under him, trotting all the way, followed by an unknown cheetah, and not long after, one person and one leopard came to the corpse of the elephant.

Sure enough, as soon as he got to the vicinity, a strong rancid smell hit his nostrils. The cheetah covered its nose with its paws and retreated step by step, refusing to take another step forward.

Even Jerry the Gambia rat had a huge reaction, curled up in his pocket, motionless, as if fainted.

Helpless, Bi Fang had to go alone.

The vulture's sharp long beak easily tore off the loose flesh due to corruption, and they swallowed the piece of meat with their heads up, discovering the invading enemy.

】

The stranger's approach made the vulture scream, but he didn't flinch when he saw the person coming.

Seeing that intimidation was useless, the vulture took a few steps back, grabbed the flesh and jumped behind the elephant, and continued to eat, obviously unwilling to leave easily.

Bi Fang didn't pay attention, he squatted down, held his breath, and used the tree stick in his hand to lift off the dangling elephant skin, revealing the inner tissues.

When the elephant skin was lifted, large black flies flew out, startling the audience in front of the screen.

Fortunately, the mosaic blocked everything before the more disgusting scene appeared.

But even if they lost sight of the lake, everyone could guess what the scene would be like. It was nothing more than what flies like to do most, eating and laying eggs.

The recent weather is not very hot, but as long as the temperature is above 15 degrees, it is still a suitable environment for them to spawn.

[Grass, it’s just time for me to eat here, I have no appetite]

【The greatest invention of mankind, mosaic】

【That's not what you said last night】

【How long has this been rotten】

[So how did he die? 】

[Looking at the wound, it looks like it was bitten to death by an animal, and the head is also intact, so it shouldn't be ivory]

[Is it possible that he died of old age. 】

[Speaking of it, it seems that we rarely see old and dead elephants]

【He was killed by poachers before he died of old age】

"Elephants themselves rarely die of old age, and basically starve to death before they die of old age. This has nothing to do with poachers."

Bi Fang tried to find more clues on the elephant carcass, and at the same time glanced at the barrage to answer the audience's confusion.

"Elephant teeth are very special. Most mammals only have 3 sets of molars, which grow out in a way similar to shoots. Adult teeth cannot be renewed.

But elephants are different. They have no canines, only incisors and 6 sets of molars, but because the upper and lower jaws are relatively short, they cannot accommodate 6 sets of molars at the same time, so these 6 sets of molars appear in sequence, just like a conveyor belt. The back gradually moved forward. "

"Such mammals are actually very few. Among the 5,500 known species of mammals, less than 10 species can continuously renew their molars. Except for elephants, only 3 species of manatees, rock kangaroos, and frost rats have teeth from the back. pushed forward."

[sounds painful]

[a little off sanity]

【what the hell】

"It's really uncomfortable, so the elephants who are changing their teeth are usually more grumpy."

Bi Fang affirmed this statement and continued.

"Because elephants have a long lifespan, the sixth set of molars will take 20 to 30 years. If you eat too much hard food that is not easy to chew and damage your teeth, you will lose your lifespan."

"Many wildlife rescue non-profit organizations, such as wildlifesos, will feed semi-liquid food to older elephants who have reached their sixth set of molars."

"In fact, many animals will starve to death because of tooth loss, but elephants have almost no natural enemies, even if they are old, they cannot be provoked by carnivores, so the basic natural death is starvation, not old age."

Bi Fang walked around the elephant, and the vultures also bounced around.

"Unable to eat food and hungry, elephants will drink water to relieve it."

"And older elephants tend to get pinker as they get older, because their ears and nose fade with age."

"So we don't see old and dead elephants, but we can often see pink elephants dying near water sources."

【Useless knowledge increased】

【Awesome, I know it all】

[Damn, sometimes I don’t have lunch, and it’s not time for dinner. When I’m hungry and uncomfortable, I’ll drink plain water, and I’ll feel better]

【plus one】

【Suddenly understand (funny)】

[The secrets of nature are already omniscient! 】

Bi Fang walked around behind the elephant, and the vultures jumped back to the elephant's belly again.

At this point he finally made a discovery.

"It wasn't an animal, it was a human. Look, there are bullet holes here."

Bi Fang pushed the elephant's head away, exposing the side of the elephant's neck. Due to several huge bullet holes on the ground, the scar was as big as the mouth of a bowl, which proved the man-made statement was correct.

"It was a female elephant without tusks, so the skull remained intact."

"African elephants are different from Asian elephants. Both male and female elephants here have tusks, but I remember saying that due to artificial selection, more and more African elephants have no tusks."

"I don't know why those people wanted to kill her."

Bi Fang was a little puzzled.

Speaking of the most popular commodities in Africa, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is definitely ivory and rhino horn.

But the rhinoceros horn is formed by the cutin of the epidermis, without a bone core inside, and the main component is keratin.

Ivory is different. Ivory is an extension of an elephant's bone, and almost one-third of it grows in the skull. That is to say, the ivory and the skull are connected, and there is no way for the elephant to remove all the ivory while it is alive.

Therefore, it is not necessary to kill the rhino to take the horn of the rhino, but to take the ivory, the elephant must die.

On the other hand, if ivory is not taken, why kill elephants?

"The bite wounds were added later and have been for at least two days."

After observing the surrounding environment again, Bi Fang made a different discovery this time when the distance was closer. He pointed to a big tree not far away.

"That tree seems to be easy to set up an ambush, let's go and have a look."
