Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 831 Unexpected

The scorching sun hung high above the sky, and the yellow-orange beams stretched for thousands of miles.

In addition to bringing color, the light also brought blazing high temperatures. The terrifying high temperature exceeding forty-five degrees made the air twist and swim like a long snake.

The scorching and intense light has almost no dead ends on the flat land, except for a cracked deep canyon, which is blocked by the rock wall and casts a large shadow.

The shadow shrouded Bi Fang, he pulled Alpha and curled up in it to cover his figure, and even his breathing was suppressed a lot.

The canyon does not go straight, there are many extensions on both sides of this crack, like a leaf vein expanding to both sides, shrinking in the shadow of one of the thin branches, if you are lucky, you can cover yourself.

There was a low air pressure in the live broadcast room, and if the various barrages were not closed, it would almost cover the entire screen, but at this time Bi Fang had no time to watch the barrages.

Tens of meters away from its location, a big gazelle with a body length of more than half a meter was lying on the ground at the moment, with blood gushing under its body, flowing along the ground towards the Blackwater River.

The smell of blood spread, and soon attracted nearby crocodiles.

The crocodile lurks under the water surface, like a piece of dead wood, quickly approaching the river bank.

Alternate tan and white hairs, without broad black stripes at the dividing line, with a distinct white round patch on the rump.

The most important thing is that a pair of slender sharp horns grew on the top of the gazelle's head, with extremely dense ring-shaped ribs growing on it, which looked thin and long, like two pointed spears.

Judging from various characteristics, this is a slender-horned gazelle.

Bi Fang squinted his eyes, feeling a little regretful.

Before it landed, with his excellent dynamic vision, he recognized the species of this animal.

Threatened species on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

The slender-horned gazelle has been listed as an endangered species in the last century. The total number is estimated to be no more than a few hundred, far below the threshold of 2,500 mature individuals, and it continues to decline.

The main threat is uncontrolled poaching.

While increased human activity and desertification can also have negative impacts on natural habitat degradation, these impacts are nothing compared to poaching.

Poaching on the African continent has a long history.

Beginning in the 19th century, large European hunting groups who traveled to Africa were largely guilty of poaching, although some were tried and convicted by African kings who hunted on their lands without permission.

By 1900 A.D., European colonial countries successively promulgated hunting ban laws in various parts of Africa, prohibiting most Africans from hunting.

Subsequently, most forms of African hunting, including hunting for food, were also recognized as poaching by colonial authorities.

Commercial poaching is thus a relatively recent problem and has begun to pose a considerable threat to animal populations.

And the further back, the more serious.

In the 1950s and 1960s after the end of World War II, as European countries were severely injured and had no time to take care of their overseas colonies, the wave of national independence around the world was increasing. Many African countries gained independence from colonial rule during this period.

After independence, most African countries retained these European colonizer-imposed no-hunting laws, but poaching for food or bush meat continued, as did poaching for commercial gain.

The low management efficiency of the new government is certainly one of the reasons for such behavior, but there are also many managers who knowingly indulge in violations. After all, many of them also rely on bush meat to obtain valuable protein.

In Africa, bush meat is almost the only source of meat for poor families.

Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and rely on the sea to eat the sea.

If you are too poor to mine, you can only rely on primitive animal resources.

It is undeniable that those who hunt for food pose a threat to local animal populations, but not at the same level as those hunted for international trade.

In the 1970s and 1980s, poaching in Africa reached an unprecedented level, causing a serious crisis.

Elephant and rhino populations in particular are at risk of extinction.

These two animals do not belong to the category of bush meat, and no one uses their meat as food. They are hunted and killed entirely because of the crazy demand for ivory, rhino horn and their products in the international market.

The same is true of the gazelle genus, which also has graceful horns.

No matter what kind of gazelle, almost all have a pair of graceful and gorgeous long horns.

This makes them very popular with poachers.

Inexpensive but sturdy motorcycles and quad bikes allow poachers access to almost all parts of the species' range.

Poaching activity subsided somewhat after the 1980s, but poaching became common again on African soil following the events of the 'Arab Spring' in the 1910s and the associated reduction in controls and economic difficulties.

Hunters often post hunting pictures on social media sites, and the gazelle with a pair of beautiful horns is a frequent visitor.

At this time, the slender-horned gazelle twitched its hind legs, a large hole was opened in its abdomen, and its skin was torn apart.

Such injuries can only be wounds caused by human firearms. It is absolutely impossible for normal animal hunting to cause such hole-like wounds.

Combined with the current environment, gunshots, desert, and wounds, Bi Fang can be 100% sure that poachers did it without any doubt.

The hunter used a self-made earth gun to hide in the desert and ambushes. He missed the first shot and fired a second shot. He finally hit the target, but unfortunately he didn't hit the vital point. The slender-horned gazelle fled wildly under the struggle, and finally panicked. Came to the canyon, jumped down.

The whole scene was quickly completed in Bi Fang's mind.

Bi Fang compared the gunshot just now with the knowledge in his memory, but couldn't find a suitable corresponding target, so he guessed that it might be a homemade gun.

The power of the soil gun is limited, if the gazelle hadn't jumped off, it might be possible to save the gunshot wound.

But things have happened, jumping from a height of tens of meters, even if gazelles are good jumpers, if they land hard, there is absolutely no possibility of survival.

[Did you encounter poaching again? 】

【It feels like it】

【It's another damn poaching, so pitiful】

The audience in the live broadcast room were not fools, even though Bi Fang didn't say anything, they guessed who probably did it, and there were many discussions.

[It's all broken into pieces, and the ass is rotten]

[Why does Fang Shen always encounter such things? 】

【You cross the entire Sahara desert, maybe you can also meet it】

[The more roads you walk, the more things you will encounter. If it is a simple survival mission, you may not be able to meet it, but the chance of crossing missions is very high, especially in Africa]

[I don’t know it in China, but I know it when I’ve been abroad. There are a lot of poachers. The year before last, I went to Africa and Kenya to take the cable car. I drove an off-road vehicle and shot in front of your face. No one in the car dared to move]

[Really, so arrogant? 】

Faced with the good thing about the pie in the sky, the crocodiles jumped out of the river like chicken blood, and came to the gazelle in a few seconds, dismembering the still twitching slender-horned gazelle.

A large amount of flesh and blood splashed, the skin and flesh were separated, and more blood flowed into the river, attracting all the crocodiles tens of meters away.

Not long after, a group of crocodiles crowded the shore, and even four or five were stacked together, like a mountain of crocodiles. The latecomers even fought and bitten with the pioneers, competing for food.

West African crocodiles, which live by eating fish, rarely eat land creatures.

Bi Fang raised his head.

In the pale yellow sky, a large bird whose figure could not be seen was hovering and flying.

No one came down.

The place where the slender-horned gazelle fell was on the same side as Bi Fang, and if there were no accidents, the other party should also appear above this side.

Sure enough, Bi Fang soon heard the sound of motorcycles, and the audience was no exception.

【somebody is coming! 】

[It's a motorcycle, they came here on a motorcycle! 】

[Be careful, be careful! ! 】

Bi Fang clings to the rock wall, trying to reduce the sound of breathing as much as possible, so that he can hear more clearly.

The sound of the motorbike moved from far to near, and disappeared when it came directly above.

A noisy quarrel ensued.

The height of the rock wall is more than 25 meters. No matter how close Bi Fang is, he still can't hear what they are arguing with. He can only know that they are arguing, and he can hear a word or two from time to time, which is Arabic.

Two people, no, more than three, yes, three voices.

Bi Fang closed his eyes and lowered his voice to reveal information to the audience.

They were arguing fiercely. The distance was too far. I couldn't hear them clearly. It should be scolding or scolding for losing their prey.

Bi Fang looked thoughtfully at the carcass of the slender-horned gazelle covered by the crocodile.

The greatest value of the slender-horned antelope is naturally its pair of slender and sharp horns, which are extremely aesthetic and collectible, and are also excellent materials for carving, but its fur and meat are also valuable, but at this time they are all The cheap crocodile has become its belly meal.

It is lucky to have a pair of complete horns left in the end.

West African crocodiles are small in size and not a big threat, but it is not easy to get this pair of horns from them.

Furthermore.

Bi Fang looked at the rock wall, which was more than twenty meters high and nearly thirty meters high.

Not everyone is an all-around player like himself. He is proficient in rock climbing, swimming, and hunting. It is not easy to get down from this.

Since it is a homemade gun, it is just a few wild ways.

Then the scolding among poachers is not difficult to understand. It is nothing more than why the pointed gazelle was forced to jump off the cliff here, and finally turned into a pool of rotten meat, losing the benefits in vain.

After arguing for several minutes, the sharp-horned gazelle had already been dismembered. When the crocodiles dispersed, they didn't even see a pile of sharp horns. Obviously, they didn't know which crocodile was dragged into the river.

Seeing this, the poachers who had just stopped arguing again, this time lasted for about five or six minutes, and they didn't even intend to stop at all, and it intensified.

Then, out of the corner of Bi Fang's eye, he saw a black shadow falling from the canyon.

Accompanied by a scream.

Everything came to an abrupt end.

! ! !

Bi Fang's heart was beating violently, and the corners of his eyes twitched wildly. He slammed down on the camera of the drone and turned it to another direction.

But the audience still saw some pictures, and after a moment of silence, the entire live broadcast room exploded!

Murder, this is naked murder!

Not only poaching, but also internal strife!

Such a bloody and violent scene almost made everyone who watched the live broadcast freeze in their minds.

If there's the thrill of hunting animals and seeing crime scenes, there's just endless scares.

This feeling is like a cold poisonous snake spreading up his spine, icy cold and biting.

If it weren't for Bi Fang's identity and proof, it would be impossible for him to continue his live broadcast at this time.

An unprecedented amount of bullet screens emerged.

[Sloppy! 】

[Did I read it wrong! ! ! 】

[They pushed people down! 】

[This is a fucking crime, a crime! ! ! 】

Almost all the bullet screens are filled with a huge number of exclamation marks, as if this is the only way to reflect the excitement of the audience at this time.

There are even worse ones.

The crocodile that had just dived into the river exploded again, and layers of water splashed on the lake. The group of carnivores were once again attracted by the strong smell of blood.

A gazelle is too small for these guys.

The audience couldn't see this scene, but when they heard the sound of water, their hearts throbbed extremely.

Bi Fang almost stopped breathing, and at this moment he could not hear anything with his ears against the wall, as if the people above had disappeared and fell into a strange stillness.

When the voice sounded again, judging from the tone, it seemed to be a question.

Obviously, the poachers couldn't believe this happened.

But what greeted this round of questioning was neither communication nor insults, but a gunshot, and another black shadow fell heavily on the crocodile.

Bi Fang was completely dumbfounded.

Alpha on the side fell into uneasiness and kept trying to leave, but was firmly held down by Bi Fang.

This... What is the situation?

It could be explained by accident just now, what's going on now?

Bi Fang could no longer comprehend what happened above, and his brain fell into chaos.

What should I do now?

Two consecutive black shadows fell, and the West African crocodile fell into a carnival.

The strong smell of blood made Bi Fang a little nauseous.

At this time, as a bystander, he received a lot of psychological shock.

There are two more shadows hovering in the sky, like lingering messengers of death.

Finally, the roar of the motorcycle sounded again, and the last person was about to leave!

Bi Fang's consciousness returned to reality, and he quickly reacted to the extremely messy scene.

Can't let him escape like this!

This is completely no man's land. If you let the other party go away like this, you may really let him get away with it!

A small drone quickly flew up to the cliff, and the next moment the audience saw the figure of the fleeing poacher.

But there is no face.

Without the slightest hesitation, the drone moved forward quickly, and finally captured the front face of the poacher before the motorcycle was completely out of sight!
