Are You Telling An Eight-Year-Old To Survive In The Wilderness? - Chapter 293
293 Wild Boar?
“Remember not to get lost in this icy plain, because getting lost here is equivalent to being sentenced to death.
Of course, I know that this is difficult.
However, I can teach everyone a simple method.
Every time you walk about 50 meters, you can look back.
Check if your footprints are in a straight line.
If it’s a straight line, then congratulations, you didn’t deviate much.
But if not, you will have to make adjustments in time.
I know that this method does not look that good.
But sometimes, this simple method is quite effective.
For example, the more precise the instrument is, the easier it is to damage it.
Tools with simple principles can be used longer.
Of course, their usage is also relatively simple.
This is also why many explorers and expedition teams will bring a compass with them even if they have advanced positioning equipment.
Sometimes, this little thing can save your life. ”
Bell, who had obtained food, was in a very good mood.
At the thought that he could eat hot roasted meat tonight, Bell felt energetic.
However, at this moment, Bell, who had been walking briskly, suddenly stopped.
About 20 meters ahead of Bell, there was a sunken area between two trees.
Bell could see that there was a deep hole and some vapor was coming out from it.
The entrance of the hole was not big.
It was only the size of an adult’s head.
However, because of the distance and the small hole, he could not see the situation inside clearly.
A wary expression appeared on Bell’s face.
He only heaved a sigh of relief when he was 50 meters away.
“I should be out of danger for now.
I guess many people are very curious about why I was so nervous just now.
In Siberia, if you find such a hole and go to curiously investigate the situation, congratulations on winning the lottery.
Your friends can wait to eat at your funeral banquet.”
“Once you really investigate the situation inside, you will be torn to pieces.”
“I know what you’re thinking. You think that there might be a fat hare inside.
But when you get close, you will only be greeted by a hungry brown bear. ”
“When brown bears hibernate, they only reduce the consumption of their bodies.
It is not a deep sleep, but a light sleep. It lowers its metabolism to a certain extent.
But if there are any animals or loud sounds nearby, they can hear it.
They will even wake up from hibernation if the temperature of a certain day in the winter is high.
The danger level of the brown bear when it wakes up at this moment is comparable to when it is in heat.”
“F*ck! I saw that black hole too. I really thought there was a hare in there.”
“This doesn’t make sense. How can such a big black bear crawl into such a small hole?”
“Bell, it should be much more delicious than the roe deer.”
“I heard that wild boars are even more powerful than brown bears. Is that true?”
Looking at the comments in the live-stream, Bell couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
Brown bears that were awakened from hibernation dared to fight Siberian tigers head-on.
He had only killed a small black bear by luck as he had managed to stay on its back.
Otherwise, it would be hard to say who would win.
Therefore, although his strength had increased greatly, Bell would not do such a thing unless he had no choice.
Seeing that someone in the live-stream was interested in the wild boar, Bell quickly changed the topic.
Bell had heard of the saying of a pig, two bears, and three tigers.
But after experiencing the wilderness, Bell realized how unbelievable these words were.
These conclusions were usually said by older hunters with their experience. Of course, the saying was exaggerated to a certain extent.
The audience in the live-stream discussed for a long time.
But in the end, no one could convince the other.
Therefore, they targeted Bell.
After all, Bell had absolute authority in the wilderness.
The audience in the live-stream also trusted Bell very much.
Looking at the gifts floating on the screen, Bell could only explain.
“Alright, everyone, stop arguing.
In terms of size, the largest wild boar recorded was 476kg.
But this is just the peak record.
Generally speaking, the average weight of a wild boar should be between 90 to 200 kilograms.
Due to the environment, the wild boars in some areas might be slightly larger, but they would not exceed 250kg.
Of course, if it is a mutation, then forget it.
Let’s compare the Kodiak brown bear.
The largest Kodiak brown bear recorded was 966kg.
The average Kodiak brown bear weight is between 300 to 600kg.
Although the latter weight is referring to the weight of the Kodiak brown bear when it stores fat for hibernation, even under normal circumstances, the Kodiak brown bear would not weigh less than 320kg.
As for the Siberian tiger, the average weight of the male is 215kg.
The weight of the female is around 120kg. ”
Bell spread his hands.
“I won’t say anything else. I believe you have guessed the answer.”
However, Bell’s words still did not change the minds of some stubborn people.
There were still many people comparing wild boars to Siberian tigers.
Bell could only smile.
No matter how strong an ant was, it was still an ant.
The Siberian tiger had evolved for so many years. If it could not even hunt wild boars, it would be a joke.
After all, wild boars were omnivores.
Their physique was naturally much weaker.
Under normal circumstances, carnivores weighing more than 100kg could often hunt prey that were twice their weight.
On the distant African grassland, lions and cheetahs hunted bison that were several times heavier than them.
Moreover, the chances of success were quite high.
When the weight of a carnivore exceeds that of its prey, it can basically crush it in a battle.
Not to mention the Kodiak brown bear that was far larger than a wild boar, just a Siberian tiger of similar size could instantly kill a wild boar.
