Chapter 849 First impressions are important(1/2)
Across the iron cage, Bi Xiang explained the objectives of this mission to the audience.
Because the cheetah was sleeping, he unconsciously lowered his voice.
Maybe he didn't want to wake up the cheetah and leave a bad impression on the first meeting.
"This is the target of our operation. The staff told me its name is Harley."
"It is a sub-adult male cheetah that is one and a half years old. The so-called sub-adult is the stage between teenagers and adults."
"Corresponding to us humans, it is probably between high school and college. At this age, we are fully capable of living independently. Most cheetahs will leave their parents and live alone when they are about one year old."
"But due to the lack of instruction from his mother, although Harley is almost an adult physically, he is quite young mentally and has not yet learned how to hunt."
"Creatures like cheetahs can rarely tolerate a closed life like a zoo, so its best destination is nature."
"But if it were released directly into the wild, it would be difficult for Harley to survive in his current condition, so my task is to help him learn to hunt, protect his prey, and truly integrate into the wilderness."
Let a human being teach a ferocious beast how to hunt and survive in the wilderness.
That's not a mistake?
The task itself sounds ridiculous, like teaching a fish to swim or a bird to fly.
But if this human being was Bifang, the audience in front of the screen would not find the whole thing so unacceptable, and even think it was reasonable.
Because this man might actually be better at hunting than a cheetah!
Fang Shen is recognized globally as the strongest and most charming man in the wild.
The miraculous journeys he made again and again told everyone that in the wilderness, he was the well-deserved uncrowned king.
This is not the self-pleasure of ignorant people, but the recognition of it by the world.
What's even more interesting is that when the audience heard that Bi Fang was going to teach cheetah hunting, some people actually seriously discussed Bi Fang's "teaching qualifications."
[An interesting statistic is that the hunting success rate of polar bears is 10%, that of gray wolves is 14%, that of lions is 18%, that of leopards is 24%, and that of tigers is 2%.
Seventeen, the cheetah is 58%. The black-footed cat has the highest hunting success rate among cats, with a hunting success rate of 60%.】
【Ah, are tigers and lions only that good? 】
[Failure is the theme song of the wilderness, success belongs only to Fang Shen! 】
[Although there are no serious scientific statistics on Fang Shen's hunting rate, the number of missed attempts since the live broadcast has been very few, and it is almost certainly above 90%, which is higher than the 85% of the most powerful African hyena.
, so it’s really okay to be Cheetah’s teacher.】
[The most important thing is that the hunting range of ordinary hunters is relatively fixed, but Fang Shen's range ranges from squirrels, poisonous snakes, and swimming fish to moose, brown bears, and musk oxen. This is much stronger than wild animals.
.]
Rows of data were sorted out, and finally everyone came to a unanimous conclusion.
There is no problem.
That's how it should be.
[Understood, if this had a professional title, Fang Shenshao would have to be a full-fledged senior teacher.]
[You are young, at least you are a professor (dog head)]
[The conservation center has found a good teacher for Harley (laughing)]
After waiting for a long time, I finally learned the content of Bi Fang's live broadcast. Even though the live broadcast hadn't started yet, the audience had already started to enjoy it.
Sure enough, their expectations were not in vain, Fang Shen did not disappoint as always.
Taking a cheetah across the entire South African savannah, teaching it to learn to hunt and integrate into nature, is there a better story than this?
【Too bad!】
[Survival in the wilderness, Hua Liu is the best]
[Where is Fang Shen’s limit?]
[Fengyang Salted Fish is presented to the anchor Langhao*66666 - I am so excited just thinking about it, this live broadcast will definitely be exciting. 】
[Hold on to senior sister Heisi tightly, cry and don’t leave. I will give the anchor meatballs*1000 - is this the beginning of another legend? Rush!]
【Charge fiercely!】
Seeing how excited the audience was, Bi Fang struck while the iron was hot, looked at the staff aside and said, "Open the door."
"Now?" The staff member was hesitant as he fumbled for the key.
"Is there a problem?"
"In fact, there are indeed some problems." Rubia, the assistant director next to him, took over the topic, "Harley's temper has been very bad these days."
"what happened?"
"Because his keeper, Hamid Griffiths, died of a heart attack four days ago while feeding Harley."
"Hamid was also one of the first people to discover Harley. Since then, Hamid has been taking care of Harley. In Harley's eyes, Hamid is like a relative, so he has been depressed these past few days.
It’s hard for people to get close.”
The incident happened suddenly, and the tragedy occurred only after Chu Zhaohua left for China.
Therefore, even Chu Zhaohua did not know that such a thing had happened, and it was naturally impossible for Bi Fang to know.
"Actually, Hamid's death was not entirely an accident. He was already very old, and he had a history of heart disease... but none of us expected that the tragedy would happen so quickly.
Hamid’s biggest wish during his lifetime was to see Harley running freely in the wilderness, but unfortunately it cannot be realized now.”
After listening to Hamid's story, everyone couldn't help but fall into silence.
Then assistant Lubia made a suggestion: "So our idea is to let Mr. Bi feed Harley for a few days first, so that both parties can get familiar with each other before making contact. Otherwise, there may be certain dangers if we act rashly."
To Harley the Cheetah, Bifang is a complete stranger, let alone the current special situation.
Bi Fang thought for a moment and nodded.
There is no need to rush into contact with animals. They also have their own thoughts and emotions. If they rush in at this time, they will often get into trouble.
Seeing this, the director immediately sent out an invitation.
"Mr. Bi Fang hasn't eaten yet. Otherwise, let's have a meal first."
The plane arrived in Nairobi at around six o'clock. It was already past eight o'clock in the morning when we arrived at the conservation center. After touring around and getting to know the main characters, it was indeed almost lunch time.
As the audience wailed, Bi Fang prepared to shut down the live broadcast and come back after dinner.
[No, it only started an hour ago, why is it about to end?]
[Fuck, damn, who do you want to satisfy in one hour?]
[Fang Shen is strong in everything, but his time is too short. No wonder he has been single. Alas, as expected, no one is perfect]
"That's too much. I originally planned to have dinner and continue when I come back in the afternoon. You guys are really making me sad."
Bi Fang was a little annoyed, then ignored the audience and turned off the live broadcast, ready to try Kenyan specialties.
The mission hasn't really started yet, and from now on we can only eat and sleep in the wild.
After instructing the staff not to feed Harley until he came in person, Bifang followed everyone to the canteen.
The conservation center did not disappoint Bi Fang. Most of the funds here are spent on animals and soldiers. The funds are not very sufficient, so there are no delicacies. However, there is definitely enough meat, otherwise it will not be able to support large carnivores such as lions and cheetahs.
Bi Fang also saw many Kenyan characteristics at the dinner table.
Although they are both in Africa, the flavor here is different compared to Egypt, but the spices are abundant and the taste is not bad.
In fact, Bifang can accept most foods, but he doesn't like some things with a strong milky aroma, similar to cream stew, and everything else is not bad.
"Try our Kenyan sausage - mutura. This is specially made by the chef. It is a protein-rich meat snack. Most of our animals here like to eat this."
The chef brings a large plate of sausages to the table.
Although it sounded a little weird, Bi Fang didn't think it was an insult, but found it interesting.
People here basically spend most of their lives protecting animals, so such a metaphor is not just contempt, but a kind of recognition.
Bi Fang took a look at it twice, then tasted it and found that it was indeed good.
This is a specialty sausage made from goat intestines filled with minced meat and goat blood.
It's boiled until it's almost cooked and then thrown on the grill to dehydrate the meat and give it that sensational smoky flavor.
Bi Fang, who has the green chef skill level 5, figured out how to make it after just a few bites.
Then there are various stews, beef stews, goat stews, muscle stews, mixed with vegetables such as carrots, peppers, peas or potatoes.
The sauce is made from a light tomato base, onions, salt and pepper. It tastes salty, spicy and sour, and has a unique flavor.
There is also barbecue.
Bi Fang was not polite at all and showed everyone his amazing appetite.
Even after the meal, I ate a stack of Kenyan specialty donuts alone, which are fried dough filled with sweetness.
To ordinary people, these are out-and-out carbohydrate bombs, but to Bi Fang, they are the best substance to replenish energy.
After dinner, Bi Fang said goodbye to everyone and went to Harley's single room accompanied by the staff, carrying a bag of red offal in his hand.
