On the desert, the huge ostrich wings with black and white feathers were cut off bit by bit by Bi Fang with a dagger.
A big meal.
This ostrich is already an adult and a male. It weighs more than 200 kilograms at least. The severely injured cobra will never be able to eat it.
The reason why Bi Fang went out of his way to watch this bird-snake battle was because he wanted to pick up the pieces.
"A snake's lower jaw is only loosely connected to the skull by ligaments. It has a square bone at the jaw joint that allows the jaw to hinge at two points on the skull. The ligaments are strong but soft so that when it swallows, the structure can dislocate and
Greatly expanded, allowing them to open their jaws up to 150 degrees."
"Secondly, the bones between the snake's left and right jaws are connected into movable tenons, and the left and right sides are connected by ligaments, which can be opened wide to both sides. Therefore, the snake's mouth can not only open up and down, but also is not restricted left and right, and can be opened to a certain extent.
They are wide open internally, allowing them to swallow things much larger than their mouths."
"The reason why they evolved this ability is because they cannot chew and can only satisfy their needs by swallowing prey large enough at one time."
Snake teeth are thin and sharp, not suitable for chewing at all. The teeth of animals suitable for chewing have blunt teeth. Sharp teeth cannot grind the food into small pieces for digestion. Snake teeth can only play a fixed role in catching animals.
"But for cobras, even an ostrich weighing more than 200 kilograms cannot be swallowed even to death. Some underage pythons are too choking, so they all give us an advantage."
Before a snake hunts, it will evaluate whether it can eat it, and will not take action if it cannot eat it. If it takes action but cannot eat it, the snake will first open its mouth to the limit. If it still does not work, the snake will give up the prey.
This time it is obviously not a cobra hunting an ostrich, but a defensive battle in reverse.
Venom has always been a weapon for the weak to kill the strong. Although the probability is small, it is not impossible.
"However, I did not expect that cobras can kill ostriches at first. My original idea was to pick up a cobra, but I didn't expect to pick up a big one!"
Although ostriches can eat snakes, it is very unlikely that they will eat them all.
This is a semi-desert and semi-steppe area. Ostriches, which are at the top of the food chain, are often "picky eaters" and rarely eat cleanly.
A cobra is big enough, and there are usually many left.
But there are not as many as the ostriches left. I am very lucky. With these more than 200 kilograms, I almost don’t have to worry about food in the future.
The only thing you need to worry about is storage.
【The King of Leak Pickers!】
【Despicable, so despicable!】
[I thought there would be a fight between dragons and tigers, but these birds stopped fighting so quickly.]
Because it cannot fly, the ostrich's feathers are extremely soft and feel great to the touch. Bi Fang also paid great attention not to stain the feathers with blood. He first dug a hole around the neck and then drained the blood while it was hot.
There is no good storage method, the containers are used to store regular fresh water, and the blood water can only be wasted.
Blood and water gathered together in the sand pit, giving off a strong fishy smell, which was even more smoky under the scorching sun.
After bleeding out, Fang began to dismember the ostrich, using a sharp obsidian dagger to move around the ostrich's body, cutting through the thick skin, and then pushing it aside to reveal the blood-red muscle tissue layer.
"In the wilderness, no part of the animal you hunt should be discarded. In addition to providing fresh meat, the remaining meat of large animals can be preserved, and other inedible parts can also be used
Make clothes or tools.”
"And we need to remove the internal organs as soon as possible."
Bi Fang squatted on the ground and opened the ostrich's belly, revealing a large amount of internal organs.
He took them all out and put them into categories. The stomach bag inside was heavy and extremely thick.
Bi Fang cut both ends of it, and immediately, a large amount of sand and gravel mixed with stomach acid came out.
"Ostriches have no teeth, so they can't chew. Their stomachs are very large, and they usually contain sand and gravel that they usually eat. This gravel can help them grind the food."
"So the stomach of ostriches is called a gizzard, which is very thick. After food enters the gizzard, it will be ground into small pieces to facilitate intestinal absorption. It can be said that they are never full."
Following the stomach pouch is the long intestine, which is very long.
"The intestine of an ostrich is 14 meters long, twice as long as that of a human being."
[By the way, this bird is so big]
【What a big bird】
[No wonder it weighs more than two hundred kilograms, it’s too heavy to hold in one’s mouth]
Bi Fang squatted on the ground. With the reference object, the audience could see how big the ostrich really was.
Viewed from the front, the ostrich corpse is almost as tall as the squatting Bifang!
"It's normal. In fact, the height of an ostrich is calculated from the body height, just like the shoulder height of a horse. If you include the head, most male ostriches are taller than humans. They are quite oppressive and very powerful.
, can carry an adult male on his back while walking."
"Speaking of which, I still have some exposure to the Egyptian cobra, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible for me to eat this ostrich."
"In the wild, it is generally believed that there are four subspecies: North African subspecies, Somali subspecies, Masai subspecies and South African subspecies. The differences between them are easy to distinguish. The color of their necks and feathers are very obvious. We
The one in front of you is the North African subspecies."
"The number of the North African subspecies is not large, unlike the South African subspecies, so it is protected. If it had not died of natural causes in full view of the public, it would have been impossible for me to take the initiative to hunt."
It is well known that Bi Fang does not touch key protected animals. On the one hand, he strictly abides by the treaty, and on the other hand, he takes the initiative to maintain ecological balance and sets an example.
As a public figure, if you eat this bowl of rice, you will have to bear the consequences.
It makes no sense that once Bi Fang becomes prosperous through live streaming, he can do whatever he wants.
If it were in China, Bi Fang would go one step further and not even touch protected animals that died of natural causes, because it is a legal requirement.
Don't open this hole, otherwise next time everyone will have an excuse to say that the animal died of natural causes.
Fortunately, we are abroad now, and although we are generally not allowed to eat protected animals that have died naturally, the restrictions are not that strong.
Bi Fang, who has a professional hunter certificate, is even more able to proactively handle and protect animal carcasses.
Moreover, this is also a witness for everyone to see.
Skillfully cutting along the ostrich's body structure, Bi Fang completely removed all parts of the ostrich and peeled off the complete ostrich skin.
"Ostrich feathers are soft, plump and elegant, have a good hand feel, and have excellent thermal insulation properties. Ostrich feathers are the only feathers that do not carry static electricity. They can wipe precision industrial instruments. They are a good ingredient in the clothing industry. We can remove them.
It would also be nice to make a small cape."
The Sahara is cold at night, so some protective measures are still needed.
After taking the ostrich meat, Bi Fangyou stared at the half-cobra tail for a while, wondering whether he should take it or not.
Finally, after thinking about it, I gave up.
Snakes will eat their own tails.
It was not a parasite, but a half-full meal that aroused an excited appetite. I looked around for food to swallow, and in the process I suddenly found a moving tail, so I swallowed it.
Creatures like snakes have low intelligence and do not think that their tails and bodies are their own. If they do not feel pain, they may really eat them.
"Snakes in the wild generally do not eat themselves in a wide environment, but in a small environment raised alone, without interference from other things, they are particularly easy to find their own tails."
"In addition to the strong appetite, there are also environmental pressures, etc..."
"Although dogs also bite their tails, they do it more to relieve itch and play."
"The cobra just now has been seriously injured and it is difficult to survive, but nothing is guaranteed. It may come back to eat its own tail."
"If we take it away, it may take away its chance of survival."
There is enough ostrich meat. The weather in the Sahara is hot and food is prone to spoilage. There is no need to eat another cobra.
Carrying a large amount of ostrich meat, Bi Fang quickly left the canyon, which was filled with the smell of blood due to bloodletting, and immediately began to process the ostrich meat.
In order to preserve it, it is natural to remove the moisture, and making dried meat is the best way.
For this reason, Bifang did not stop smoking until night.
No life can be separated from water, and the same goes for bacteria and microorganisms. Without the living conditions for bacteria and microorganisms, they cannot survive.
Therefore, bacon, sausages, and dry grains can be stored for a long time and will not deteriorate easily.
It would be better if it can be pickled. The salt concentration of pickled food increases, and the water in the bacterial cells continues to seep into the food, and the bacteria will lose water and die.
Therefore, the shelf life of pickled products is also very long. For example
Pickled and sun-dried, it's a king-fried dish. It has a shelf life of several years and will last for decades, just like ham.
It's just that it requires a lot of salt, which can be collected but is not available on hand.
But smoking is enough. It will probably take another month to successfully travel through time, so there is no need to persist for that long.
You can also enjoy barbecue.
To remove moisture, you cannot bake it, you can only smoke and dry it. Bi Fang made a rack and hung the meat on it.
The fire below is not idle either, roasting today's dinner.
It was a huge ostrich leg, with slits cut into it for easy cooking and cooking.
The firewood crackled, and little bits of fire scattered in the darkness, illuminating Bifang's face red.
The plants in the Sahara are very dry and easy to burn, but they are not resistant to burning. The same burning time and scale require more wood.
"Although this ostrich was poisoned by a snake, I have always said that snake venom is mainly composed of proteins and peptides and can be killed by high temperatures. Therefore, birds bitten by poisonous snakes can be taken back as long as they have not deteriorated.
It can even be eaten to supplement protein, but it must be cooked at high temperature for a long time before it can be eaten with confidence."
Snake venom has two functions: anesthetic and digestive juice, and its chemical essence is basically protein.
Even if the protein is not denatured by heating, when the protein reaches the stomach, its peptide chain will be broken and denatured under the action of gastric acid and digestive enzymes. The spatial structure of the molecule will be destroyed by gastric juice, so that it loses activity and function, and is converted into non-toxic substances.
Animals bitten by venomous snakes are actually pre-digested. Theoretically, there is nothing wrong with eating them directly to humans, but you must make sure that there is no damage to the human mouth and digestive tract.
"The only thing you need to pay attention to is that animals bitten by venomous snakes must be eaten in time, otherwise they will die faster than normal over time."
"There is a special race in Africa. It is said that they used snake venom as weapons when hunting in the past. There is a highly venomous snake in the area called the viper, which can poison a strong bison in a short time. People are attracted to it.
Because of its power, it can be used to capture bison and have a feast."
"But instead of putting snake venom on their bows and arrows, they were smarter. After catching the snake, they tied it up and set up a trap. They tied it to a tree by the river. When the bison came to drink water, the snake would jump up and bite it.
, and then they would look for the poisoned cow, pull it back and cook it, and it would not be poisoned."
【666, this is too cool】
[Biological Trap (Dog Head)]
[Damn, I’m so hungry, this barbecue smells so good]
[I haven’t eaten ostrich meat before, my mouth is watering]
There are also many spice plants in the desert. Bi Fang saw a lot of them along the way. Sometimes he picked them and dried them in the sun. They dried in just one day and turned into crumbs and powder by rubbing them with his hands.
Combined with the collected rock salt, it makes a good condiment.
Sprinkling salt and spices on it, Bi Fang used a dagger to cut off a piece of cooked meat on the surface, and stuffed it into his mouth regardless of how hot it was. Siha inhaled, and after a long time he swallowed it, exclaiming that it was refreshing.
The skin is golden and crispy, making a crunching sound when scraped with a dagger. The surface is also full of oil, and the salt particles melt under the high temperature. Combined with the spice powder collected during the journey, it exudes a strong aroma.
Just watching it through the screen makes people salivate.
Creatures that have lived in the wild for a long time have well-developed muscles, especially the legs, and not much fat, so they will inevitably taste dry and unpleasant.
But after Bifang's various treatments, there is no odor and the taste is good. Even if the taste is not good, it still has the advantage of being large in quantity.
Supplies are hard to find in the Sahara, and Bi Fang has not eaten so happily for a long time. He is usually half full, and then mixed with some water to barely satisfy his hunger.
"Don't eat too much. Being too full can make you sleepy. It doesn't matter at ordinary times, but it's a bit dangerous in the wilderness because you need to be highly vigilant, especially when you need to keep vigil."
While chatting with the audience, Bi Fang ate so much that he actually ate most of the whole ostrich leg, which shows that Bi Fang has a good appetite.
Although the meat is made of wood, the dried meat may not be as good as it is now.
But even so, he only ate eight points and restrained himself.
In this way, by drying it during the day and smoking it at night, a large amount of water in the meat will evaporate.
All the ostrich meat was turned into dry food by Bifang in less than two days and hung on Alpha's back.
With ostriches as food supplements, there is no need to worry about resource shortages for at least a month. In addition to needing to find fresh water, the journey is much faster.
However, in semi-steppe areas, it is easier to find water resources, and you can also use the functions of plants.
