Chapter 90 Go to the wetland for joint hunting again (3)
Take a short break at noon, and continue to hunt giant frogs in groups in the afternoon.
Ye Nai didn't play games like she did in the morning. She took out an off-road vehicle in the space and replaced it with a tracked vehicle. A logistics team member taught her how to drive.
Should I say it, she also has some talent in mechanical operation. After practicing for an afternoon, she was able to drive in a straight line normally. When it was almost evening, the intercom called her to collect a giant frog, so she drove there by herself. Yes, the person who taught her how to drive sat in the passenger seat and watched her stop the car steadily without running over anyone.
The remains of the giant frog were still put into the space, and the internal organs were placed in multiple cages and sunk underwater.
When everyone got in the car and prepared to return to the camp, the intercom rang again, calling Ye Nai to collect the birds.
A carload of people rushed to the place where the bird traps were set up and saw a battlefield where humans and birds were fighting.
The purpose of setting up bird nets is to catch live birds. Catching live animals is a difficult task, but for scientific research, whenever new animals are discovered, some specimens must be caught.
In fact, we should take a few of those water snakes back alive, but snakes are much more dangerous than water birds. What if the researchers are wiped out?
But none of these wild waterfowl are tame species. They are all full of wildness. After being caught in the net, they struggled desperately, leaving their bodies covered in blood.
The soldiers wore protective gear to catch birds, and even though they wore thick protective gloves, they were pecked painfully. The long legs suitable for walking in wetlands also kicked people very hard, and the big wings slapped people in the face, which was like a slap in the face. Snap.
Fortunately, the soldiers' protection was very strong this time, and they were not torn apart, but their faces were a little swollen from being slapped.
As soon as Ye Nai arrived, she took out multiple large iron cages.
First, classify these birds according to their feathers, and put them in a cage for the same type of birds. There is no deadlock, and there is some room for movement.
Then I watched the birds in the cage fight with each other, making their feathers fly and squeak.
Some birds only have a single bird, which is placed in a cage. As a result, it keeps hitting the cage to commit suicide, and finally dies.
All the processes were specially photographed.
“Why are so many captured alive and brought back to death? These videos are the explanation.” The team members patted the cameras fixed on their shoulders. “This is a must-have for the task of capturing living animals.”
Ye Nai nodded repeatedly, with an open-minded expression, and decided to buy it when he went back.
Even if it is not a mission to catch living animals, it is not a bad thing to always have a camera.
Humans did not interfere with the various fighting and suicidal behaviors of waterfowl. The large cage was fixed on the roof of the car, the bird net was reinstalled with bait, and Ye Nai took out an off-road vehicle and returned to the camp together.
Back at the camp, the bird cages were unloaded in a corner of the camp. Ye Nai sprinkled a wave of spores on them to stabilize their vitality and prevent them from dying on the way.
I won’t feed them any water that day, and we’ll do it tomorrow to avoid them getting full and fighting again.
Having dinner before dark, and just as the non-vigilantes were preparing to rest, noisy bird calls suddenly came from the sky, and then waves of stench spread over people's heads.
“Bird poop attack!” the experienced Ye Nai shouted, “Go back to the tent quickly!”
Everyone ran into their tents as fast as they could, took out gas masks from their personal luggage and put them on, in case there were any unknown ingredients in the disgusting stench that could cause allergies or other discomforts.
Everyone’s walkie-talkies were buzzing and everyone was talking.
"What is this? Revenge of the birds? Are the water birds here so united?" "Fortunately, the net was pulled up in advance."
Several tents were like searchlights. The bright light swept across the ground of the camp.
"I just swept the ground and there is no bird droppings. I hope it's all on the net."
"Our net has three layers and should be able to catch most of it."
" I can’t see clearly at night, let’s wait until tomorrow morning.”
“Do you know how it feels to have a load of bird droppings on my tractor? After washing the car for a day, my car washing fee is all water. "Ye Nai couldn't help but complain.
There was laughter on the intercom.
The bird poop attack lasted for five or six minutes and ended, but the stench lingered for a long time. Everyone could only tighten the zipper of the tent and sleep with their masks on.
There was no way to keep a vigil. In the end, the earth team members built a solid earth wall around the camp to deal with the night.
The only one who slept well was Ye Nai.
She took off her gas mask, and the energy in her body was running rapidly. Her nasal cavity was covered with hyphae, which filtered the stinking air for her. Every breath of air she breathed was clean.
After daybreak, everyone inspected the damage and were surprised to find that very little bird droppings fell on the ground and tents. Most of them were blocked by the three-layer protective net above the camp.
Of course, these three layers of network cannot be used anymore.
Everyone quickly dismantled the net and formed a large ball. The logistics team members collected it in the space and took it to the leeward place to light it and burn it.
Ye Nai took out three more worn-out large nets from the space and re-laid three layers of protective nets.
When it comes to recycling waste, there are plenty of broken nets.
After cleaning up the few scattered drops of bird droppings in the camp, the air was finally better. The only place that still smelled was the corner where the birdcage was placed yesterday, but that was downwind of the camp. You won't smell it if you go to feed and water it.
The waterfowl that had been imprisoned for the night were now wilted. The soldiers carefully took out the dead birds from the cages, put down the water basins, and then covered them with a broken net that was stacked several layers. There was a little light but not much. Mainly It's ventilation, the rainproof cloth is thick and heavy, and the air is gone when the cage is covered.
After breakfast, everyone worked in groups and went to the waterside separately to pull up the net shrimp pots dropped yesterday and hand them to Ye Nai. Then they went hunting and took the offal as bait.
Ye Nai continued to practice driving. In this endless place with no cover or blockage, she stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and started racing with a track car.
The support team member who taught her how to drive firmly believed that Ye Nai was addicted to racing. However, the spirit of driving without fear of death was also an advantage. For example, when she needed to escape, rescue or pursue, a person who knew how to drive was very confident. Drivers get a lot of time.
The days passed leisurely, and more and more prey were caught.
Giant frogs have always been our main target. After catching them for a few days, we were basically sure that this kind of frog is indeed not the type that hibernates and sleeps motionless. It goes back to sleep and will come out to look for food when hungry.
As long as you don't let it jump, it's easy to kill. Two quadruple multi-barreled cannons can kill one, but once it moves, it moves very fast, and the distance it jumps can reach hundreds of meters. He jumped out of the range of the multi-barreled cannon.
The anti-aircraft guns used to defend against raptors ultimately use flat muzzle shots to hit giant frogs. As long as they hit, one shot will do.
After staying like this for nearly ten days, more than half of the cannonballs were used. The giant frogs in this area suffered a disaster. They found all the frogs they could find and bombed them with cannons. More than ninety of them were killed. If you want to kill again, you have to change camps.
