Chapter 459 Catching Snakes
A familiar scene appeared.
But Leonardo still stood frozen in place, not daring to move or even make a sound. He glanced at Bifang out of the corner of his eye and found that he was staring at the bamboo in front of him.
The audience didn't understand what was going on, but they all became nervous.
Got into a situation?
Although Fang Shen said before that mosquitoes are the number one killer in the animal kingdom, there is no direct sense of danger after all. After more than two hours in the rainforest, have we encountered other creatures?
Is it a beast or a poisonous snake? Or something else?
Bifang slowly waved towards Leonardo: "Come closer to me, and move slowly."
Leonardo did as he was told, and after he took three cautious steps forward, Bifang grabbed his wrist and pulled him over.
"What happened?" Leonardo was a little nervous. He still didn't understand why Bifang was so serious.
The more unknown, the more frightening it is.
"Look." Bifang did not answer, but raised the stick in his hand and pointed it in the direction of a big tree.
Following Bifang's line of sight, Leonardo and the audience looked up at the tree at the same time. It was all green, and there was nothing different.
【What's this?】
【Can you give me a detailed explanation? 】
[There is a snake... Can't you see it? ]
[Fuck, snake! ]
[Fuck, I saw that too]
The audience noticed, but Leonardo was still confused.
Bifang was speechless: "Are you nearsighted? There is a snake hanging on the tree."
"Oh! I see it!" After Bifang's reminder, Leonardo discovered a long green snake among the branches. It was tightly coiled around the branches, staring at the two of them.
So good at disguising!
Even though Bifang had just pointed out the direction, I still couldn't find it at the first time!
The distance between the two is not even three meters!
[So green, is it the bamboo leaf green? ]
[It should be Bamboo Leaf Green! ]
[Damn, this is too scary, did I almost bump into him just now? ]
[Is the bamboo leaf pit viper highly poisonous? 】
The camera zoomed in and showed a long snake on the branch with a triangular head, a beautiful emerald green body, and delicate and smooth scales on its body, which only showed a little burnt red at the tail. Judging from its appearance, it was definitely a leader among snakes.
Such a green snake made many viewers think of this kind of snake at the first time.
Bifang shook his head, then nodded: "It is a Bamboo Leaf Green Snake, but not all green snakes are Bamboo Leaf Green Snakes. The two are different. There are many snakes that are all green, or even greener than the Bamboo Leaf Green Snake, such as the Green Thin Snake and the Emerald Green Snake, but the one in front of us is definitely a Bamboo Leaf Green Snake."
Bamboo Leaf Green!
Leonardo was stunned. He was familiar with this famous venomous snake and was immediately frightened. If Bifang hadn't held him back, he would have crashed into it.
"This, this thing is poisonous, right?" Leonardo said as he took a few steps back. He felt that this distance was not safe.
But Bifang not only did not retreat, but took two steps forward!
"It is poisonous, and extremely poisonous. The Pit Viper is one of the world's 10 most deadly creatures, and one of China's top 10 venomous snakes. Its toxins are blood-circulating toxins, which are not only numerous in variety but also very complex in composition. It mainly attacks the cardiovascular and blood systems, and produces toxic effects in many aspects."
"So until now there is no effective monovalent serum on the market. Fortunately, the mortality rate of the toxin of the bamboo pit viper is not high. Unless it bites the head or carotid artery, it will generally not cause death."
Leonardo was stunned for a moment: "Hmm... With such a strong toxicity, there are few deaths?"
According to Leonardo's understanding, a snake that can be considered highly poisonous can kill a person with just one bite, right?
Not to mention that Bifang just mentioned so many titles of Zhuyeqing.
"That's because the lethal dose of the venom of the bamboo-leaf green snake for adults is generally around 100 mg, but the amount of venom excreted from a bamboo-leaf green snake bite is usually around 5.1 mg, which is far from a lethal dose."
"And it often bites people. In Fujian, Taishui, Guangdong and other provinces, it is the main snake species causing venomous snake bites. Especially in Guangdong and Guangxi, there are an outrageous number of cases of bamboo leaf pit vipers biting people. Every year, there are more than 6,000 cases of bamboo leaf pit vipers biting and poisoning in the Guangxi and Zhuang Autonomous Region."
More than six thousand?
What is the concept?
There are more than 40 species of venomous snakes in China, which bite about 200,000 people each year. However, bite cases involving the Pit Viper snake in just one region can account for a large proportion.
Most of the time, it's because humans don't notice the Green Bamboo Snake hiding in the jungle and get too close to it and are attacked. After all, its camouflage is too superb, and people may not realize it's right in front of them until they are bitten.
There are also a few cases where green bamboo snakes accidentally enter people's homes and cause harm.
The bites occur frequently and in large numbers, which is why they are considered very dangerous.
"You're getting so close? To such a dangerous venomous snake?" Leonardo's voice was a little distorted as he watched Bifang getting faster and faster towards the snake.
"Isn't it time for dinner?"
【Is there something wrong with this answer? 】
【What's the problem? There is no problem at all! 】
[I'm not here to watch you conquer the wilderness, hurry up and eat, dog head.JPG]
[I’m a fucking expert! ]
[Does Lao Fang specialize in eating poisonous snakes? I have never seen a poisonous snake escape his clutches! ]
"The bamboo pit viper prefers to move around on rainy days, and can often be seen in the evening on sunny days. Its main food includes frogs, various birds, lizards, etc. Although it will also eat mice, in general, it is not a creature that is beneficial to humans."
"But ordinary people cannot be arrested casually. A permit is required. Unfortunately..."
[Unfortunately, you have it again, right? ]
[Bamboo Leaf Green is really unlucky to meet you]
【Eat spicy noodles! 】
[Damn, I’m most afraid of snakes. I get scared when I see them. They’re disgusting and dangerous.]
Not only the audience, but even Leonardo was terrified. No one is completely free from fear of poisonous snakes.
People's fear of snakes is engraved in their genes.
That’s why there are so many horror movies about snakes. There’s no need for any atmosphere; the moment you see a snake appear, you’re already terrified.
"We have to be careful when catching it. Unlike the pit viper, the bamboo pit viper is very fast and can almost jump on the trees. People in Yunnan are used to calling the bamboo pit viper the 'green bamboo dart', which means it is as fast as a dart."
[I am from Yunnan, I testify]
[Green bamboo darts and golden bamboo darts, the older generation often said that they are rarely seen nowadays. ]
[You are in the city, I have seen it many times in the countryside. Wow, that speed, whizzing, it's like flying. Especially shrimp]
While Bifang was speaking, he had already come within three steps of Zhuyeqing.
This is already very dangerous. If the opponent suddenly attacks, he may be hurt directly.
At this time, Bifang tightly grasped the stick in his hand and slowly approached Zhuyeqing.
