Chapter 291: 291



291 Extreme Low Temperature, Tundra Wolf

Looking at the footprints ahead, Bell suddenly frowned and stopped.

“Unfortunately, this roe deer suddenly changed direction. It’s different from what we expected.”

This situation made it difficult for Bell to choose.

He was really pressed for time. The journey he had to travel every day was fixed.

If he continued to track this deer, he would undoubtedly waste a lot of time.

Most importantly, he was not completely confident that he could capture the prey.

But Bell, who had been hungry for a day, really needed food to replenish the proteins in his body.

In this environment, it was very difficult to find food.

If he could have a hot meal, not only could he replenish his stamina, but he could also feel much better.

It was also a form of spiritual comfort.

After some thought, Bell finally chose a compromise.

“We can’t give up on traveling for food. But we cannot miss the food too.

Therefore, I’ve decided to try tracking it for half an hour. If we can’t catch the prey in half an hour, we will continue to travel at full speed.”

In fact, Bell was still unwilling to give up.

His schedule was indeed tight, but food was equally important in this environment.

He had not eaten anything since yesterday except for a few insects.

Resisting the cold also required energy.

If he kept going hungry, he would only feel the weather getting colder.

After making the decision, Bell held the hiking stick and continued to follow the footprints.

This Siberian pine forest was similar to a tropical rainforest.

It was also easy to get lost in the forest.

In this environment, once they got lost, death was almost a certainty.

Even if the person had enough survival skills, the chances of survival were still slim if they could not find food.

In fact, many people thought that the coldest places on Earth should be the South Pole and the North Pole.

After all, they were places where the sunlight could not reach.

But that was not the case.

Although the South Pole and the North Pole were cold, they were still inferior to the land under Bell’s feet.

In winter, the daytime temperature in Siberia’s Far Eastern Plains could reach -45 °C.

In the evening, the average temperature was -65 °C.

At extreme times, it would reach a terrifying -71.2 °C.

Perhaps some people did not know what -71.2 °C meant.

For example, in this temperature, once you fell into the water, you would have to climb ashore in a few seconds.

Otherwise, you would immediately be frozen into a popsicle.

No one would want to try such a thing.

Even just looking at the photo of the scene here would be enough to feel the temperature here.

This indirectly proved how terrifying the environment was.

After walking for about 20 minutes, Bell was about to give up.

But at this moment, some different footprints suddenly appeared in front of him.

But the direction was the same as the footprints of the roe deer.

Bell looked at it and came to a conclusion.

These were the footprints of some tundra wolves.

After coming to this conclusion, Bell stood up and said excitedly.

“As I said before, we are not the only ones tracking this prey.

Do you see these footprints on the ground?

These are the footprints left by the tundra wolves. Their goal should be the same as ours.

They also discovered the traces of this deer, so they followed it. ”

“We can follow and take a look. Maybe we can find some leftovers.”

Bell did not ask for much.

It would be good enough if he could fill his stomach in this environment.

As he walked forward, he took out his dagger.

“I just saw the audience in the live-stream asking me why I’m confident of getting leftovers.

Normally speaking, wolves do not waste food when hunting. They usually eat their prey clean.

But the current environment does not allow them to do so.

This is -45 °C. The prey’s body will be frozen within ten minutes of death.

When hunting in this situation, the tundra wolves will usually choose to eat the internal organs first.

Then, they would start eating from the place with the most fat.

By the time they finish eating the remaining meat, it will be frozen solid and they will not be able to eat it.

After all, they can’t start a fire like humans. ”

“By the way, I have to say this. I’m not the first person to do this.

The Yakutsk people used to use this method to obtain food.

Of course, this is not limited to the wolf pack. Brown bears are the same.”

Although Bell was chatting with the audience in the live-stream, he did not stop for a moment.

Just as he finished speaking, Bell suddenly realized that the footprints on the snow in front of him were becoming messy.

This meant that the tundra wolves had already attacked.

Bell became vigilant.

His footsteps became much lighter.

The key was that Bell was not sure if these tundra wolves had gone far.

He did not want to be the dessert of these tundra wolves.

Tundra wolves were extremely intelligent animals.

In addition to moving in a pack , they also knew how to use tactics.

Of course, it was also because their intelligence was too high that the people who once lived in Siberia hated them.

Whenever winter came and food became scarce, these tundra wolves would attack the pasture and farms in groups.

Only in recent years did Russia finally launch a policy.

They began to hunt these tundra wolves every year to control their numbers.

This made the residents living outside the city live in peace.

In fact, a dozen tundra wolves were not scary. As long as you had a shotgun, you could easily chase them away.

But the problem was that once there was a lack of food, these wolves would gather into packs of hundreds and thousands.

Unless the armed forces were mobilized, these packs were impossible to resist.

Moreover, it was because of the trouble these tundra wolves caused to the local residents that some local governments had no choice but to issue a bounty on these tundra wolves.

A wolf could give 4000 rubles.

With all these measures, the number of tundra wolves was finally controlled.
