Chapter 220 Siberian Bighorn Sheep

Hunting is allowed in the Kamchatka Peninsula. In this area, large wild animals such as wild wolves, elk, reindeer and horned sheep are counted in hundreds of thousands to millions, and there are countless small animals and birds.

Qin Feng learned from Maxim that there are also a group of people in Huaxia organized to hunt every year.

There are special hunting companies, mainly serving high-end vacation teams in Europe and America.A trip lasts about seven or eight days, with various luxurious pick-ups, accommodation and food conditions, as well as harsh and simple wilderness cabins during the period.

In the days leading up to the hunt, there will be a variety of teaching, explaining, browsing and interactive learning.

Then teach the principles and use of various weapons, disassembly, target shooting, adaptation to survival in the wild and driving in the wild.

The same is true for Qin Feng and others who want to hunt, they need to learn all kinds of field knowledge in advance.

In the past few days, he found the shotgun he was most interested in, and practiced shooting for two days.

And followed Maxim to live in a wooden house in the mountains for two days, getting used to life in the wild.

After getting ready, Maxim took Qin Feng and a few men to apply for a temporary hunting certificate.

At the same time, you need to pay for the finished prey, and the price of different prey is also different. As long as you have money, brown bears can also be shot.

This price is similar to that of wild meat sold on the market. For example, if a bighorn sheep sells for ten thousand and ten rubles, then you will have to pay nine rubles for a single horn sheep.

From the perspective of spending money, it is almost the same as buying directly, just like those people in China spending money to pick strawberries in the strawberry garden.

After everything was prepared, Qin Feng, Lynch and others carried a travel bag and followed Artyom and Maxim into the mountain by helicopter.

As for women and children, they naturally stayed at home, and it was impossible to follow them.

Maxim's hunting method is different from that of hunting companies. They have special hunting grounds. Going hunting is like shooting a target directly, and there is almost no danger.

The Maxim brothers took them into the deep mountains and wild forests, lived in a wooden house and went directly to find prey.

Now is the season of early spring, and it is also the time for all things to recover.Brown bears who wake up from hibernation start to look for food everywhere, and encountering them is still dangerous.

The second is the wolves, which are more difficult and dangerous than brown bears.

However, Maxim did not lead them into the territory of wild wolves this time, and obviously they did not want to encounter wolves.

According to them, brown bears in general are not dangerous, except for those brown bears that tend to attack humans.

But once this kind of brown bear is found, it will be dealt with directly, and it is impossible to let them wander in the wild.

After all, this kind of brown bear already knows that humans can attack, and the next time they encounter humans, they will directly chase and kill them.

However, brown bears in early spring are more aggressive than summer when food is abundant, and they still need to pay attention to safety.

After flying for more than an hour, the group landed on a flat grass field.

There were already people waiting for them in two mountain bikes, both of which were Maxim's friends.

But they didn't go with Qin Feng and others, they left a car and left.

Qin Feng looked around, and at a glance, he saw the herd of elk staring at them vigilantly in the distance.

Here, the elk obtained by hunting by oneself only costs 20 rubles, and the RMB is only in the early [-]s.

But elk antlers are very male-friendly antlers, which are expensive in China.

That is to say, there is a limit on the number of hunting here. For those who have obtained a temporary hunting license, they can only hunt one at most.

Even for a professional hunter like Maxim, the number cannot exceed twelve.

But he doesn't make a living by hunting, so he only kills one or two venison at most when he comes out every year, and it's fine to share some venison with his family and relatives, and he won't kill too much indiscriminately.

After getting in the car, Qin Feng and others drove for another two hours, and came to a big wooden house.

This log cabin is much better than the log cabin they lived in when practicing wild survival.

Walking into the house, Qin Feng immediately saw the hanging specimens of wild animals, including wild wolves, elk, reindeer and brown bears.

There was a gray blanket in the living room in the center. He looked at the four big claws on the edge of the blanket and twitched the corners of his mouth speechlessly. It was a blanket made of brown bear skin.

There are only two rooms in this wooden house, and the three of Qin Feng can only live in one room. Fortunately, the room is big enough, and they can live there if they make a floor berth.

As soon as the things were packed, Maxim came over with a shotgun: "Are you ready? There is no food here, and we only brought some fruits and vegetables, so we need to get the food ourselves."

"Let's go when you're ready. By the way, remember to bring your fishing rods. If we don't catch enough prey at night, we'll go catch some salmon."

"Okay, I'll be here soon." It was time to go hunting, Qin Feng and others immediately speeded up the action of packing up, and brought all the equipment that needed to be brought.

Then they set off in a car with the Maxim brothers and began to look for prey.

"Maxim, we found a herd of elk just now, why didn't we hunt it directly?" Qin Feng asked suspiciously.

"We have a special legal hunting area here. Just now, it was a protected area and hunting was prohibited." Maxim explained with a smile.

After Qin Feng heard what he said, he was taken to a hillside by Artyom who was driving.

There is a stream next to it, and a cliff can be seen in the distance. From a distance, Qin Feng can see a small group of animals under the cliff.

Seeing the big curved horn, Qin Feng immediately recognized what kind of animal it was.

The Siberian bighorn sheep, although it is a herbivore, looks extremely difficult to mess with. It is estimated that a rocket head cone can send people away.

Artyom also spotted the prey, and he drove in that direction.

When he was on the hillside about 1000 meters away from the herd of bighorn sheep, he stopped the car and turned off the engine, then stood up and looked around to make sure there were no other dangerous animals before getting out of the car.

Seeing this, Qin Feng and others also got out of the car one after another, and the group started to walk in the direction of the bighorn sheep.

Parking at such a distance is mainly because I am afraid that the movement of the car will scare the herd of bighorn sheep away.

When you get closer, you can clearly hear the "bang bang bang" sound of hard objects colliding. After all, spring is here, and it is the season for animals to reproduce.

Several huge bighorn sheep are dueling for their right to mate.

The approach of Qin Feng and the others did not attract the attention of the bighorn sheep, and the human size did not pose a danger to them.

It wasn't until there was only a distance of 100 meters between the two that the bighorn sheep in charge raised their heads and stared at them.

Maybe if they continue to approach, this group of bighorn sheep will leave here directly.

So Maxim raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, and then took out the shotgun.

This time when I came out to hunt, I only had two shotguns.In addition, considering that it was the first day, everyone needed to obtain food for the next period of time first, so Maxim did not let Qin Feng and others try first.

He first observed the flock of bighorn sheep. There were a total of seventeen bighorn sheep here. There were only six male bighorn sheep with curved horns, and the rest were females.

Most animals are not monogamous, so Maxim set his sights on a slightly smaller male bighorn sheep.

This bighorn sheep seems to have failed to compete for mating rights, and some bloodstains can be seen on the head, muzzle and nose.

It didn't get close to the group at this time, but ran to the side in desperation, as if it was saddened by its failure to fight for the right to mate.

But soon, it could calm down, because Maxim had already aimed his shotgun at it.

The next moment, there was a "bang" gunshot, and the bighorn sheep flocked in panic and fled in all directions, while the male bighorn sheep who was crying alone fell down in response.

It was hit on the head by Maxim, and its limbs and hooves twitched continuously after it fell down. Before Qin Feng and his party approached, it was completely cold.

"Haha, even though I have shot dozens of bighorn sheep, I still can't stop being excited every time I shoot him." Maxim came to the bighorn sheep, watching the prey he had shot show his face. A look of satisfaction.

Qin Feng's heart was also pounding. Although he was not the prey he had shot, his blood was boiling when he saw him, and he wished he could replace him.

The happiness of a man is as simple as that.

"I'll go and drive the car over here." Artyom looked at the bighorn sheep, took a few photos of his brother, Qin Feng and others, and returned to the car with his shotgun.

Maxim took out the dagger he carried with him, and said to Qin Feng and others: "The prey has been caught, but we need to deal with it here. If we deal with it at the wooden house, it will attract many carnivores .”

Qin Feng and others were stunned, and then they also took out their portable daggers and began to help.

They first dragged the bighorn sheep to the slope with its head down, and then Maxim cut off the bighorn sheep's main artery with a dagger to let the blood out.

Then the bighorn sheep was disembowelled, and all the internal organs were fished out.

"Ouch~" Lynch immediately vomited when he saw this bloody scene, and ran to the side.

Qin Lei was a little better, but he didn't dare to approach him this time.

Only Qin Feng bit the bullet and helped to clean up the internal organs of the bighorn sheep.

He actually felt sick too, which was not the same as killing a fish.Tuna is not disgusting to kill, and the picture is not so scalp-numbing.

Originally he was very interested in bighorn mutton, but after watching the digging scene, his appetite disappeared without a trace.

Seeing a few people like this, Maxim couldn't help laughing: "You guys don't have much contact with them. I was just like you when I was first excavated. I also felt a little uncomfortable, but it will be better after more experience."

"It seems that we have to come and hunt with you every year to learn to get used to it." Qin Lei smiled wryly.

"Haha, welcome to come over."

Under normal circumstances, many internal organs are edible, but because of the poor conditions, they are worried that the seasonings they bring cannot completely remove the fishy smell, so the internal organs of the bighorn sheep, except for the heart, are thrown away.

Since they came out to hunt, there was no shortage of food, so it was okay to waste some, and these internal organs would also be disposed of by carnivores in the forest.

The internal organs are taken out to play, and the next step is to peel the skin.

Now Lin Qi and Qin Lei also recovered, they are both big men and not so pretentious, so they helped together with daggers.

After a while, Artyom came by in an off-road vehicle.

Seeing this, Maxim got up, went to the car and brought the ax over.

First, the neck meat of the bighorn sheep was cut open with a dagger, and then the neck was chopped off with an axe.

This is his trophy. The sheep's head can be sold directly for money. Many people like to make specimens, or take off the sheep's horns and use them separately.

After the sheepskin was separated, Artyom spread the wool side of it in the trunk of the car, and then several people separated the lamb legs and chops and placed them on the sheepskin.

Of course, the sheep's head is also included.

However, Artyom did not drive back directly, but came to the creek he had discovered before.

The mutton was covered in blood and had to be cleaned.

And Maxim carried the sheep's head, ran to a place 100 meters away from them, and began to clean the inside of the sheep's head.

The main reason was that Lynch and the others would not be able to accept it, lest they would not be able to eat at night, so he ran so far.

After he cleaned up the sheep's head, Qin Feng and others were already waiting in the car.

When Artyom saw him come back, he said, "Why don't we go to the fishing area and catch some salmon!"

Maxim was taken aback for a moment, and then thought that after Lynch and the others dealt with the bighorn sheep together, they might not be able to eat meat at night, so he nodded: "Okay, go catch some salmon for dinner at night."

Of course, Qin Lei and Lynch had no objections. They really didn't want to eat the meat of bighorn sheep at this meeting, so they probably had to take it easy.

About an hour later, Artyom took them to Sakhalin Lake, a famous bear watching tourist spot in Kamchatka Peninsula.

However, August and September are not the season when salmon are abundant, so Qin Feng only saw a female brown bear staying with her two sons to fish.

Artyom drove the car to a very empty place, he and Maxim held a shotgun to guard, and asked Qin Feng and others to go fishing.

Qin Feng and the others naturally have no objection, this is a place where brown bears haunt, and not far from next door, there is also a cemetery for photographers from the filming country!
Hearing that he was attacked while shooting a brown bear, Qin Feng clapped his hands, shook his head and sighed: "What a pity!"

Qin Lei: "."

Lynch rolled his eyes even more.

Qin Feng didn't bring his own sea fishing rod, but a hand rod he bought specially.

He can help with fishing gear at any time now, so he doesn't care what tools he uses.

He didn't bring bait when he went out, but it didn't matter. He took a dagger and cut the heart of the bighorn sheep into small pieces, and used this directly as bait.

Apparently fishy baits are attractive to carnivorous fish like salmon, and it didn't take long for the tip of his rod to buckle.

Qin Feng grabbed the fishing rod with both hands and lifted it, but he couldn't lift it.The force from the fish was not small, so he didn't dare to use force recklessly, lest the fishing rod could not withstand the force and break.

Therefore, he could only follow the direction of the fish and walk up and down the shore, slowly consuming the strength of the fish.

But he wouldn't leave too far, when he was about to walk out of Artyom's protection range, he pulled the fish hard to make him run back.

After more than ten minutes like this, a red salmon nearly one meter long was directly pulled ashore by him.

At first glance, Qin Feng thought it was a red salmon, but this fish has many spots on its body, which is a bit different from red salmon.

Maxim came closer and smiled when he saw the fish: "This is a fish unique to our Far East, called Far Eastern char."

At this time, Qin Lei and Lin Qi also caught fish one after another, but the fish they caught were relatively small, and they were pulled up as soon as they were pulled.

It is also the Far Eastern char, but it is only [-] centimeters long.

But three fish were enough for them to eat, so they packed up their tools and returned to the cabin by car.

Because the sky had already darkened, there was a greater chance of encountering ferocious beasts at night, even if they wanted to continue fishing, Maxim would let them leave.
