Chapter 764 Carriers of Infectious Diseases

"It's a pity that I lost a big bat. I hope I can eat this big bat in my hand."

Wang Yu put down the bat in his hand, took down the rattan net arranged at the entrance of the cave, then picked up the bat and led the emperor to the natural cave.

This fork in the road is not too far from the large natural cave. It is only a few minutes away. As we walked, we heard the familiar sound of running water. When we walked a little further, there was a faint smell of sulfur.

Returning to the natural cave, Wang Yu set up a bonfire instead of dealing with the giant bat immediately after putting down the backpack behind him.

"I have enough firewood now, and I almost forgot about it this afternoon, otherwise I might have to go back to the cave corridor to collect wood now."

After lighting a bonfire, Wang Yu picked up the giant bat and walked towards the river bank, holding two wooden sticks of similar thickness and length in the other hand.

The stone ax had been damaged just now, so Wang Yu had to use a curly engineer shovel as a kitchen knife. Although it was blunted a lot, it was not enough to cut down the soft belly of a vampire bat with ease.

"Bats are usually carriers of rabies and various infectious diseases, so in the process of eating, especially try to avoid eating their heads and internal organs, where the germs are most likely to exist, other edible The parts must be cooked too!"

Wang Yu said solemnly, this is no joke. If it is not handled properly, it is very likely to be infected with germs.

After finishing speaking, he cut off the giant bat's head neatly, threw it into the underground river, and was washed away by the flowing water.

Then clean up the internal organs of various colors such as yellow, green, black and red in the abdominal cavity. Wang Yu peeled off the fur of the bat, and after washing it in the cold and clear underground river water, Wang Yu cleaned the two wooden sticks and strung them together.

There was a strong stench at the scene, and Wang Yu didn't care. He didn't think those giant vampire bats, who were about to be frightened by the roar of the Tyrannosaurus rex, would have the courage to come to trouble him.

If he had to come and deliver them one by one like the gourd baby saving his grandfather, Wang Yu would also be willing to accompany them to the end.

This not only saves the trouble of explaining, but also prevents the population from claiming that he is cruel and rare in the future, and he can still get enough food. Of course, the premise is that this species will not be wiped out, and Wang Yu will be hard to bear.

Putting the skewered giant bat on the bonfire, Wang Yu sat aside and waited quietly. After peeling off the skin, the size of the giant bat was not much different from that of a common farmed meat dog.

The remaining water stains on the body gathered together along the smooth flesh to form water droplets, which dripped into the burning firewood from time to time, making a sizzling sound and at the same time bursts of dense water vapor rose.

"The habit of eating bats is found all over the world. There is an island country in the western Pacific Ocean called Palau. The local islanders especially like to eat a kind of small bat, which is about the size of an adult's palm.

It is a unique local bat species. It likes to eat fruit, and suck the juice and even pollen of various flowers. The local Palauans firmly believe that these fruit bats have absorbed the essence of plants. The human body has great benefits. "

"It can almost be said that it coincides with the same point of view. The same thing happened in the Brazilian tropical jungle. The local indigenous people like to catch fruit bats, but that kind of fruit bat is one of the largest bats in the world, with the highest wing length. Reaching 2 meters, the weight is lighter than the large vampire bats on the bonfire."

"In order to be able to eat giant fruit bats, the indigenous people living in the Brazilian rainforest often have to trek mountains and rivers to catch them in caves or hollow tree trunks where they inhabit. net.

Trying to catch them while waiting for them to rest during the day is a rare delicacy and good for the body in the eyes of the locals. "

Wang Yu explained that for the natives who also live in the rainforest, giant bats have become the food of the local natives in the southern hemisphere, but the reverse is true in the northern hemisphere, which is really ironic.

"It is not difficult to see that edible bats are generally vegetarian. Of course, I am not encouraging everyone to eat bats, because not all bats are edible, and some species of bats have a large amount of toxins accumulated in their bodies.

Eating it is not only harmful to the human body, but excessive toxins may even endanger human life. Not only that, as I said before, bats are often carriers of various disease bacteria. "

"The frightening virus that swept across the land of Africa a few years ago - the Ebola virus is the best proof. After that catastrophe, fruit bats were suspected to be the host of the Ebola virus. source."

Speaking of it, Wang Yu's face became a little dignified. The Ebola virus is at level [-] in the biosafety level, and the SARS that made the people of the country fearful at the time was only level [-]. The fatality rate is very high, and the incubation period of the virus is very short. The brief period is often only five to ten days.

"At that time, a research team composed of scientists from various countries once claimed to have found the source of the Ebola virus outbreak. This team of 17 researchers, after several weeks of investigation and research, found that in the source of the outbreak, wild fruit bats As a common food, it is eaten by locals smoked or boiled in pepper bat soup.

By capturing fruit bats and comparing them with other creatures, the researchers found that fruit bats are more likely to carry the Ebola virus. Although it is not [-]% sure that the host of the virus is from fruit bats, it is very likely that fruit bats have become the main source of Ebola virus. One of the 'suspects'"

"So, I still suggest that you don't eat it. It's the same old saying, don't imitate it!"

Wang Yu solemnly reminded that this sentence often appears in his live broadcast room and has become one of the golden sentences.

While speaking, Wang Yu turned over the bat meat on the grill, not feeling uneasy at all because of what he said, as if what he was eating was not bat meat.

"Don't look at me looking indifferent now, it's because I have no choice. If I don't eat something, I will starve to death without being infected by germs!"

Wang Yu laughed at himself and cursed in his heart, if he hadn't learned about Dracula's vampire bat in the Hidden Creatures Illustrated Book and confirmed that it was edible, then he would have dared to eat it with confidence.

A faint smell of meat began to spread. Wang Yu licked his lips and stared at the bat meat on the grill. The color of the meat on the surface began to turn a little golden. It seemed that his appetite was greatly increased. Just smelling it makes people salivate.
