[Comprehensive British and American] Wilderness Survival Journey

Within a few minutes, the two of them used up all the bamboo tubes in their hands, and then they retreated to the side tacitly, and then began to drive away the little guys in the mud with great noise.

Mudskippers and fiddler crabs are very timid. Once they encounter danger, they like to drill into caves, and they will drill as soon as they see a cave. They don’t care whether the cave they drilled is actually their own home, so as long as they are in the mud Man-made burrows make it easy to catch them.

Sure enough, after the two consciously drove to the position of the bamboo tube, the mudskippers and fiddler crabs that had been running around quickly got into the trap they set up in a panic, and they got into it one after another.

Seeing that the drilling was almost done, Noah and Anthony stopped.Anthony pulled out a heavy bamboo tube, looked inside and said happily: "Today's harvest is bumper, these things must be roasted in the bamboo tube after returning home, the taste must be very good."

"Don't eat it all, save some for snacks on the way." Noah said.

Anthony wiped his sweat and asked, "Shall we leave today?"

Noah tied up the bamboo tubes in groups of seven or eight with tree vines, and said: "Let's go in the afternoon, as there is enough food now, we can save the effort of finding food at night."

Anthony felt that it was a pity to leave this place with plenty of food and water so soon, but he did not refute Noah's decision, and nodded readily and said: "Then let's go back quickly, pack up and eat and rest for a while, and then off we go."

"Okay." Noah replied, and lifted the bamboo tubes on the ground.

Anthony hurried up to help him lift a little, but just as he walked over, a black shadow suddenly fell to the ground next to his face, causing him to yell out in fright.

"what?!"

Noah reached out and pulled him aside and said, "Don't be afraid, it's a little monkey."

"It's a monkey again." Anthony took a closer look, and found that the one lying at his feet was indeed a small monkey, and it was also a proboscis monkey unique to Kalimantan Island.

This little monkey should be only two or three months old. It is a little male monkey with a very distinctive proboscis on its dark gray face. Right now it is shaking its head in a dazed expression. He fell off the tree and didn't realize what happened, and he didn't run away immediately when he saw Noah and Anthony.

After what happened last night, Anthony had already disliked monkeys, but now that he saw such a little guy, he had to admit that monkeys were still cute.

Certainly limited to this cub, at least in the proboscis monkey species.

Anthony doesn't like adult proboscis monkeys, especially male proboscis monkeys.Proboscis monkeys only have male monkeys with long noses. This nose will grow bigger and bigger with age, and may eventually grow to seven or eight centimeters long, and the color is still red. It looks like a large eggplant-shaped sarcoma , which directly reduces the appearance level of the entire species.As an intermediate face control, Anthony would not like this kind of ugly monkey.

But little monkeys are really cute. Of course, most species in nature are actually pretty cute when they are young. Even if they are not good-looking, they are all ugly and cute.

But no matter how cute the little monkey was, Anthony didn't dare to touch him easily. He saw the big proboscis monkeys on the nearby trees gathered towards Tingmeng, and immediately pulled Noah to the shore.He didn't want the proboscis monkeys to regard them as big villains who bullied the cubs, and then came up to besiege them.

Simply these proboscis monkeys seem quite reasonable. After they landed on the shore, a female monkey jumped to the ground, picked up the baby monkey and quickly returned to the tree, and then continued to gnaw calmly with other proboscis monkeys. Picked up mangrove leaves.

Speaking of which, these proboscis monkeys are quite pitiful. Their food is very single. Except for caterpillars and small insects, the main food is mangrove leaves and bitter fruits. These two things not only contain toxins, but also very free Nutrition.For this reason, proboscis monkeys have developed a particularly large stomach pouch, which is filled with bacteria that help digestion and can break down as many nutrients as possible in the food.But at the same time, they also lose the opportunity to eat sweets and nutritious foods, because once they eat too much, they are likely to swell themselves to death under the action of fermentation.

As a hedonist who likes delicious food, Anthony sympathized with them for three seconds, and then saw that the little monkey poked its head out from behind the belly of the female monkey after eating a few mouthfuls of leaves, and began to observe quietly They are four human beings.

It may have never seen humans before, so it is very curious about these two-legged animals in clothes.

Anthony couldn't help looking at it a few more times, and then said to Noah beside him, "Should I scare it just now?"

"Why?" Noah asked strangely.

"If I scare it just now, it will know that humans are dangerous, and it will not approach people casually in the future. It is not good for it now." Anthony said, his tone was a bit worrying.

"You should be more worried about other animals here, such as orangutans and proboscis monkeys, which may not be liked by many people," Noah said.

The orangutan is the largest giant ape in Asia. They only inhabit the nearby Sumatra island behind Kalimantan and are endangered animals.In the early days, many people would illegally smuggle and domesticate orangutans as pets. This behavior has now been banned, but the number of orangutans is still very small, and there are even signs of continued decline.

In fact, the animals on the entire Kalimantan Island are constantly decreasing. In order to develop the economy, the local government continues to cut down the rainforest, which makes the habitat of the animals continue to decrease. The reduction in the number of animals is inevitable.

Anthony didn't think so much, he joked when he heard Noah's words: "Is it because the proboscis monkey is ugly?"

"No." Noah shook his head and said solemnly: "Because they are wretched."

"Huh?" Anthony followed Noah's eyes puzzledly, and then saw an adult male proboscis monkey standing on a branch with its legs wide open, chewing leaves, and the red stick between its legs The things were facing their direction, and with their big noses and big bellies, they looked extremely wretched.

Anthony took a look and immediately turned his head away, but he also had to admit that the proboscis monkey was really quite expected.

In fact, the proboscis monkey's x-ability is well-known throughout the natural world. It is likely that a big nose is better in certain aspects. This kind of statement does have a certain scientific basis. The proboscis monkey with a big nose is particularly powerful in this respect. It is said that some male monkeys can survive 24 hours with a golden gun, which makes many middle-aged men who are as potbellied as them envy.

Of course, Anthony would not be envious of this ability. After all, as a future boss, seven times a night is the basic preparation. As a human being, he feels that reaching this level is enough, and there is no need to work hard to surpass it.

After watching the awkward proboscis monkey feature, the two quickly returned to camp.At this time, the soup in the pot had been cooked and was bubbling jubilantly. When Anthony saw it, he immediately walked over and lifted the lid of the pot, and picked up a spoon made of bamboo to scoop off the froth floating in the soup.

If the wild boar meat is not carefully treated and boiled in the soup, it is inevitable that some dirty things will be cooked, but these things will not affect the taste of the soup.

After Anthony scooped them up, he picked up a piece of meat and tasted it. The meat of the wild boar was very tender. Because enough ginger was added, it didn't taste much fishy. Overall, it tasted very good.

Anthony was very satisfied with the results of his cooking, and then he also took a piece of meat for Noah and handed it to his mouth: "Noah, come and taste it."

In front of food, Noah never pretended to be reserved. Smelling the delicious wild pork, he swallowed it into his mouth unceremoniously, and after chewing it a few times, he praised without hesitation: "It's well cooked, and the taste is very delicious." good."

"I think so too." Anthony straightened his back proudly.

"So can I eat now?" Noah asked.

"Okay." Anthony nodded, then picked up the cup on the ground and filled Noah with a whole cup of bamboo shoot rib soup. Of course, most of it was meat, and there were only a few pieces of bamboo shoots.

When Anthony served himself, he filled a lot of bamboo shoots, because he decided to eat as many bamboo shoots as possible. After all, the bamboo shoots were given to him by Noah, so he should cherish them.

After eating their stomachs full, Noah and Anthony went back to the lake again and packed the harvest in the bamboo tube.

The sum of the catches this time was more than yesterday, but after pouring it out, they threw away the fiddler crabs in the bucket, so the remaining mudskippers were actually not more than yesterday, but they were used as snacks on the road , these servings are enough.

While Anthony was cleaning up the mudskippers, Noah also brought up the fish cage that was put down yesterday.

After seeing it, Anthony said with some surprise: "I forgot that we put the fish cage, Noah, did you catch anything?"

"Yes, there are some lobsters inside, and they are quite big." Noah shook the fish cage and said.

"Did you catch any fish?" Anthony asked.

"There are some small fish, let's not get rid of them, we want these shrimps." Noah said after discussing.

Anthony agreed: "Okay, just eat the shrimp. There is no need to clean up this one. Let's take it back and cook it."

The practice of the wild version of grilled fish in a bamboo tube is very simple. Anthony directly stuffed the packed mudskippers into the open bamboo tube, then put some ginger and salt in it, covered it and threw it on the fire.

As for the few shrimps, they were boiled in two cups by Anthony. This time he didn't even add any seasonings. After cooking, he peeled and shelled them, and then dipped them in the unfinished bamboo shoot ribs soup with Noah. Just ate it.

After dealing with these things, Anthony went to the wild boar basket to take out a few catties of meat, and asked Noah to help slice it into pieces, skewered them into skewers, inserted them around the fire and started to roast the meat.

He also wants to take these barbecues with him on the road. As for the remaining wild pork, it really can only be sent to the program crew. In the hot and humid rainforest, these raw meats will deteriorate within a day, so they really can't carry them .
