Chapter 114: Otter Gang? Cute appearance, cold heart!
Xu Yang has gone very deep.
He has not stopped since the show started at 10 a.m.
Netizens didn’t know where he was, they just knew that he was live streaming the entire process without any interruption.
Xu Yang is already the 10th most popular person in Jilin
It looks like we'll be able to rank among the top 3 in popularity in the province today.
The rest of the journey was relatively smooth and we didn't encounter any other dangers for the time being.
We did see a few pheasants flying out of the woods, flapping their wings, and we didn't know what they were being chased by.
There are a lot of pheasants in the woods.
There are also many hares and mice, which is why the resources of this forest are so rich.
Xu Yang glanced at the time. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon and the weather was a bit hot.
He planned to find a place to escape the heat, eat something and replenish his energy.
Just at this time, he made a new discovery.
I only saw Xu Yang take two steps forward and look at the ground thoughtfully.
There were a lot of people in the live broadcast room, and everyone was paying attention to his every move.
[Have you discovered something? ]
【Is there a treasure? 】
Everyone asked questions.
At this time, Xu Yang squatted down, sniffed lightly, and said:
"It is a discovery, and it is good stuff."
"That's it. Tiger poop."
After hearing his words, netizens were all stunned.
What?
Tiger poop?
what?
Obviously, no one expected that they wanted to know what Xu Yang had discovered, and the answer was a pile of shit.
I was expecting a big one, but ended up pooping a big lump.
[Hahahaha, Old Xu, you caught us off guard and played shit on us, didn't you?]
[It's actually tiger shit. What do you need it for? ]
[The host is right, it is indeed a good thing! ]
【What is the use of this thing? 】
The barrage instantly became lively.
Xu Yang said calmly:
"This tiger shit has dried up, has no smell, and is not worth much."
"If it's fresh, the flavor is very strong and very valuable."
The more people listened, the more outrageous and hilarious it seemed.
Some people even thought that Xu Yang was doing it for show effect.
Xu Yang explained:
"Don't underestimate tiger poop. It's very effective in repelling wild animals."
“It’s like marking territory.”
"Other animals passing by would not dare to come near when they smell the smell."
"If I put a few piles outside my farm, no animals would dare to come over. Anyway, the distance is far and it won't affect farm life."
Only then did everyone understand what Xu Yang meant.
But this knowledge still sounds funny.
The tiger actually has this trick.
In fact, it is not that the tiger deliberately marks its territory. It is simply because it is too powerful and other animals are afraid of it when they discover its presence.
This thing has a tiger logo on it.
"Fortunately, this pile of shit has been dried for a long time, which means the tiger is not around."
"I don't need to be so nervous."
"Its territory is so large that it will take several days to patrol it. It won't come back for the time being."
Xu Yang stood up and continued to walk deeper.
Netizens were very happy.
This knowledge is so interesting.
[8 people in the live broadcast room watched the anchor play with shit? ]
[Hahaha, I can already feel how strong that smell is! ]
[To be honest, the host said so. I really want to smell it and see if it can scare me! ]
[You guys are so perverted! Call me when you smell it! I want to smell it too! ]
The style of painting gradually changed.
Xu Yang continued to walk inside and crossed the mountain.
He looked around from time to time, just like other animals living in the forest.
The lush forest is full of hidden dangers.
People don’t know how fierce wild Siberian tigers are. Wild Siberian tigers weigh more than one-tenth as much as captive Siberian tigers, are larger in size, and are more ferocious in temperament.
It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.
Xu Yang planned to find a place to rest first.
You can't rush in the forest, you have to proceed step by step.
He chose a place under a cliff where there was less vegetation and it was relatively safe.
The tent is a simple tent, but it can shelter from wind and rain. It is summer now and it is not too cold at night, so there is no need to carry too many supplies.
[Old Xu, did you come here to dig up some treasure? ]
Someone couldn't help but ask.
Generally speaking, mountain runners go deep into the mountains for a purpose.
For example, hikers who specialize in hunting chaga will go to the birch forests deep in the mountains.
The ginseng-picking team that specializes in finding ginseng will, led by the old leader, conduct a carpet search deep in the mountains.
It is very dangerous to go deep into the mountains, so we must maximize the benefits.
"I'm just trying my luck. I'll look for whatever I come across. The chances of encountering good things are higher in the deep mountains."
"There are too many hikers out there, so it's hard to find anything good."
Xu Yang explained.
The mountains are rich in resources and have many good things, but there are also many people, so there is basically nothing left.
This kind of deep mountain is different.
No one came at all.
Find the right place and you'll find all the good stuff.
"Today we are mainly on the road, and there are relatively few plant species along the way."
"Tomorrow when we get to the back of the mountain, there will be more abundant produce."
"I'll introduce it to you when the time comes."
Xu Yang sat outside the tent and enjoyed the cool breeze.
After walking all day, I need to take a break.
He took out the mineral water and took two sips.
I had a simple meal again.
Xu Yang looked around but didn't see any animals for the time being.
However, Xu Yang still heard some squeaking sounds.
He had been in the mountains for a long time and could hear some unusual sounds. "It seems like there is some movement."
Xu Yang stood up, looked in one direction, and spoke.
Is there any movement?
Netizens became nervous instantly.
[Old Xu, is the tiger coming? ]
someone asked.
After seeing the comments, Xu Yang smiled and replied:
"It's definitely not a tiger. If I had spotted a tiger, I would have immediately gone into the tent."
"That squeaking sound is either from green glaze or an otter."
"Anyway, it's from the Mustelidae family. There are quite a lot of these things in Changbai Mountain."
Xu Yang traveled lightly, holding a stick in his hand.
I have been carrying a backpack all the way, and now that I have taken off my luggage, I still feel it is quite light.
The Mustelidae family is one of the eight major carnivorous families. Although they are small in size, they have extremely advanced hunting skills.
In terms of skills, the level of the mustelid family is only lower than that of the cat family.
Moreover, mustelids are widely distributed. There are flat-headed foxes living in grasslands, sea otters living in the sea, otters living in freshwater, and snow ferrets and blue weasels living in forests.
Xu Yang took a few steps forward.
I actually saw two little guys playing around.
An otter indeed.
Otters are dark in color, but look extremely cute.
China does not allow otters to be kept as pets, but some countries allow them to be kept, and otters have become one of the most popular pets.
These guys only need to be fed a few times to become very friendly and suitable as companion pets.
There are also bloggers online who keep otters as pets.
"Look over there, two otters, playing around."
"These guys are pretty cute. They usually live in freshwater areas deep in the mountains and forests."
“It’s not easy to be discovered.”
Xu Yang explained.
The drone shot forward.
Netizens actually saw two little guys with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
[It's an otter, so cute. I've seen otters in the zoo, they're all so cute! ]
[Otters are really cute! ]
[The little ones next door can be kept as pets, and some people still keep them. These guys are very friendly! ]
[There are actually wild ones! ]
People were talking about it.
Otters are really cute.
But Xu Yang smiled and said:
"Wild otters may not be what everyone thinks. Although these guys are cute, they are not that gentle."
"Animals all have a sense of territory. Otters also have territories and they fight for territory."
"A group of otters is a family, and one family often fights with another family for territory."
"Win and occupy the territory."
"It's similar to the nature of the mafia."
"These two lovely otters are, unsurprisingly, gang members."
Since entering the mountains, Xu Yang's science popularization has always been beyond everyone's expectations.
what?
Is this what otters do?
Isn't it a crying monster who likes to act coquettishly and cutely?
Otters also like to whimper, especially when competing for favor.
They are so cute when they chirp.
Who would have thought that these little monsters in people’s homes and zoos would become gang members fighting for territory in the wild!
Just then, two more otters came over, and after communicating with the two playful otters, the four otters ran out at the same time.
Xu Yang saw this scene and quickly followed.
It feels like there is something exciting to watch.
It's better to come early than to come by coincidence.
Soon, a river area appeared in front.
The river does not flow very fast, but it is extremely wide and has many branches.
This area is relatively flat, and the flow of river water slows down when it reaches here. Because of this, the aquatic plants here grow lushly and there are many small fish.
Otters love places like this the most. They like to eat small fish and this place is just right.
“This should be the territory where the otters live.”
"It looks like they are going to fight today!"
Xu Yang smiled.
All I saw was about eight or nine otters gathered by the river, whispering to each other.
With Xu Yang's explanation, netizens were also delighted when seeing this scene.
Are these little guys really ready to fight?
【Gangsters assemble! 】
[Under the cute appearance, there is a heart of a gang leader! 】
The more everyone watched, the more excited they became.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise not far away.
Looking closely, there were about eight or nine otters breaking through the waves in the distant water, creating a long white wave on the water surface, heading straight towards the otter group here.
The land grabbers are coming!
Crash!
Seeing these otters, all the otters on the shore went into the water, squeaking, and quickly rushed over.
Also riding the waves.
The water surface became lively as a result.
Everyone stared at it intently, and the more they watched, the funnier it seemed.
Xu Yang also wanted to watch the fun, so he looked at the two groups of otters with a smile.
They swam very fast and looked very angry.
Then, the two groups of otters gathered together and began to fight fiercely on the water.
In an instant, water splashed everywhere.
No one could see who was hitting whom, they just saw the otters twisting their bodies around.
[Can this be distinguished? ]
[Hahaha, this is also a fight for territory? ]
The audience in the live broadcast room became happier and happier.
This melee lasted for a minute, and in the end, the group of otters that came to cause trouble were defeated.
One otter ran back, and the others followed.
The group of otters guarding their home did not chase after the otters. Instead, they swam back and forth on the water, making squeaking sounds as if they were celebrating their victory.
"Hold on, this is still a powerful family."
Xu Yang commented with a smile.
