Food is vital to human survival. As more and more people choose camping and sleeping, they often encounter some unexpected things in the wild. It will be beneficial to learn some knowledge about how to get food in the wild. Below, let's introduce some tips on how to get food in the wild for readers.

First, hunting animals

1. Hunting animals: Hunting animals is one of the important means to survive in the wild. Guangdong people have a saying in eating wild animals: "Everyone eats when his back is facing the sky". Many people in the world have eaten lizards, poisonous snakes, wolves, kangaroos, owls and even bats ... Generally speaking, all kinds of furry animals, birds and snakes can be eaten. However, it is necessary to ensure that the hunted animals are fresh and germ-free. Below, let's introduce the living habits of several animals for your reference:

Pheasants like to live in forest margins, bushes or overgrown areas, and also enter the forest, but rarely enter the dense forest. In winter, I often forage for grains and seeds in the field plains, and I seldom climb trees during the day, but mostly walk and forage on the ground. I like to spend the night in the tree at night to avoid the attack of the enemy.

Rabbits are distributed all over the country, mostly inhabiting mountains, grasslands or river valleys with trees. They are not easy to meet during the day and mostly move at night, mainly eating weeds, vegetables and bark. Hares are easiest to catch in the mountains and forests in winter. When you are in Zita Law, you can identify fresh footprints and catch them with your bare hands.

Antelope likes to live in the open grassland, but also enters the hilly and semi-desert areas, and often enters the dense forest for breeding. In summer, they often feed in the morning and evening, avoid to rest in the valley at noon, and move during the day in winter.

In short, animals usually sleep during the day and feed at night. The best time to hunt is at dawn or dusk. At this time, animals can be easily found at the water's edge, open spaces in forests, grasslands, hilltops and the edges of bushes. Seabirds can be caught at night on the edge of the island reef, because birds don't move at night. All these should be applied flexibly. However, it should be noted that precious animals should not be killed, and any animal that looks sick (such as being slow to move alone) should be given up.

Fishing: In the wild, fishing is also a way to get food. Generally speaking, weather and season have a great influence on fishing. In spring, fish are the most gluttonous and easy to take the bait. In summer, fish generally sink in the deep water or in a cool place rather than bite. In this season, only when the summer heat subsides in the morning or evening, fish will be willing to take the bait, and it is not easy to catch fish when it is windy or rainy. It is often a good time to fish before the fog clears or it snows in winter. It is concluded that the activity law of fish is "clear sinking mixed floating" and "cold sinking warm floating"; In winter, it is cold and gloomy, and in summer, it is hot and cloudy. According to these laws, we can determine the fishing opportunity and the depth of the hook according to local conditions.

Because of the different types and habits of fish, there are many fishing methods. In addition to fishing with a pole, you can also use the "line-setting method" to fish. Tie a hook to the fishing line, put bait on it and throw it into the water. The other end of the fishing line is tied to the twig or bamboo tip on the shore. When the fish is hooked, the twig or bamboo tip will bend. Check from time to time to remove the caught fish.

When fishing at sea, it is necessary to find out whether the fish caught is poisonous or not, and then decide whether to eat or not. Usually in tropical shallow seas, there are thorns, sharp spines or bristles without scales, which are strange in shape and may be poisonous fish. They are absolutely inedible.

13. Fishing shellfish and marine plankton: There are many kinds of shellfish in the coastal beach. Most shellfish are edible, such as abalone (poisonous and inedible viscera), which is a valuable "seafood", and red snails, river snails, sweet snails, mud clams, SINONOVACULA constricta, mussels, scallops, oysters, meretrix meretrix, etc., which are all edible, nutritious and delicious.

4. Eating of insects: According to expert experiments, insects are rich in protein, amino acids, minerals and vitamins. For example, ants contain more vitamins B1and B2 than eggs and fish. Many insects have more protein than meat. For example, dried wasps contain 80% protein and locusts contain 61%. The protein content of cooked pork is about 20%.

At present, people in the world eat snails, earthworms, ants, cicadas, cockroaches, crickets, butterflies, moths, locusts, grasshoppers, lake flies, spiders, mantis and so on. When eating insects, we must pay attention to it, and we must cook it or bake it thoroughly, so as to prevent parasites in insects from entering the human body and causing poisoning or illness.
