This method of setting snares was really quite powerful; after one round, they harvested 7 more hares.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the way, they reset the 5 snares that caught hares yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the wire snare catches a hare, it must be processed again before being reused, otherwise, there will never be another hare caught in the snare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because after the wire snare catches a hare, the hare will struggle violently, and the more it struggles, the tighter the snare will be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the wire will be deeply embedded in the hare's neck, breaking the skin, which will stick some of the grease and blood from the skin onto the wire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it doesn't look obvious, to a living hare of the same kind, it is a huge danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The processing is also very simple: throw it into the stove pit to burn it, then throw it on soft soil and rub it with your feet, and it's done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So after being used a few times, the wire isn't strong anymore, and it's wasted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After checking the snares, they went to check the traps; they only caught one pheasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three big traps were still placed there, and the few weeds and leaves on them were also placed well, with no movement at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Chengmin drove the sled straight to a mountain range with many bushes, where things like euonymus and boxwood were very numerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the main food source for roe deer in winter, and roe deer would gnaw on the tender buds on the bushes here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Chengmin tied the big stallion and let Wang An take the six big snares.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big snares were steel wire rope snares, the principle being the same as wire snares, but the material was steel wire rope as thick as a pinky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were also burned black, but Feng Chengmin said it wasn't just to prevent reflection, but also to burn off the grease inside the steel wire rope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it had to be burned for a while, thrown into the soil and rubbed, then burned and rubbed again; doing this four or five times was enough!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big snares were used to catch wild boars, roe deer, yellow sheep, and black bears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The success rate for catching wild boars and roe deer was slightly higher, but not much; one snare catching one or two in a month was considered a master among hunters!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tracks of yellow sheep were unpredictable; sheep eat and walk, meaning they eat wherever they go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike roe deer and wild boars, which generally only move in one mountain range unless extremely startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sensitivity and strength of yellow sheep also exceeded roe deer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless a blind cat bumped into a dead mouse, and you knew where the yellow sheep might pass, maybe you would catch one or half a one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for catching black bears, there was no way to say; mainly, no one had heard of anyone catching one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few who were said to have caught one said the stake tied by the steel wire was broken by the black bear, and the black bear ran away with the steel wire rope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one cared whether it was true or not; they just knew that such a thing happened!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even if they caught one, it was estimated that it would be useless without a gun; the flexibility, strength, and bite force of a black bear were unimaginable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking deep into the bushes, Feng Chengmin found a few clusters of bushes that weren't too dense, just like an irregular turntable intersection!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were many roe deer hoof prints here, dense and numerous!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were both new and old ones; it was a foraging ground that roe deer felt safe in!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And setting snares wasn't like setting wire snares, changing places one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, snares were set at the intersections leading to the dense bushes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four big snares were set directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The time spent setting this snare was really not short; the steel wire rope had resilience, so three thin hemp ropes had to be tied at three points, and the hemp ropes were tied to thick bushes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hemp rope couldn't be the kind that was especially strong; it had to be the kind that could withstand the resilience of the steel wire rope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it had to break with a slight force! Otherwise, the snare couldn't tighten, or if it broke late, the roe deer would run away!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The diameter of the entire snare circle was about 55 centimeters, and it was about 45 centimeters off the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above the circle, if there were no branches reaching over, a few shrub strips had to be placed; it was best if the shrub strips didn't touch the steel wire rope, fearing it would affect the tightening of the snare, and also making the steel wire rope not look so obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang An didn't even want to learn this trick anymore; it was too meticulous and too troublesome!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the steel wire rope in this era wasn't easy to get either; it was a very tight material!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Feng Chengmin say that this was bought by pulling strings at the forestry farm, six 2.5-meter steel wire ropes cost 25 yuan and two packs of 5-dime cigarettes, and he said it was still for the sake of face!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang An was shocked; this was too damn expensive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeming to see that Wang An was not interested, and setting this big snare to catch roe deer was indeed too time-consuming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Chengmin let Wang An carry the remaining two big snares, walked into an oak forest, and set them under trees that hadn't been rooted by wild boars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting snares was a skill that depended on the person, and whether you caught something mainly depended on fate!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two drove the sled and walked into the deeper mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang An didn't know where Feng Chengmin was going, because they passed many wild boar and roe deer footprints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Feng Chengmin didn't call for the horse to stop, just kept walking into the deep mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An hour later, Wang An discovered several more wild boar footprints, but Feng Chengmin acted as if he didn't see them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't help but ask: \"Uncle-in-law, where are we going? We've passed so many wild boar footprints.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Chengmin looked at Wang An deeply and said seriously: \"I'm taking you to dig out a den today!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dig out a den?\" Wang An asked in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Chengmin nodded without speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Digging out a den, Wang An knew, was digging out a black bear's den, or a brown bear's den!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Northeast, black bears hibernate, and a very small number don't hibernate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brown bears are different; some hibernate, and some don't. It's unknown what the specific reason is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hibernating bears are called \"squatting in the den,\" and non-hibernating bears are called \"walking the den\"!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And digging out a den, most of the time, is digging out a black bear's den, and brown bears are in the minority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the first snow of winter, black bears, which are black bears, and brown bears, which are brown bears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Will drill into tree holes found in advance, or mountain caves and stone caves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those in tree holes are called \"sky dens,\" and those in mountain caves and stone caves are called \"earth dens.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Digging out a den is finding the den where a black bear or brown bear is hibernating, and the hunters make preparations at the entrance of the den.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Think of ways to wake them up from their deep sleep; this is called \"calling the den,\" also called \"shouting the den.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they are startled awake and drill out, kill them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what method is used!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, you can get the expensive bear gall, and the not-so-valuable bear skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bear skin is very large, but it's really not very valuable, not even as valuable as fox skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang An remembered the supply and marketing cooperative seemed to buy it for 25 yuan, or maybe 35, he didn't remember, anyway it wasn't expensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Wang An was very surprised, why did his uncle-in-law take him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His uncle-in-law had three brothers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget it, learn if you can, take a share if you can, if not, forget it, he'll hunt bears himself later!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeming to know Wang An's confusion, Feng Chengmin didn't hide it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said someone from the same village told him the location of the black bear den and wanted 20% of the bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>20%, not two shares, 20% is 20% of the money after selling it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly listed, caught off guard!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you relatives for your support and love!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you all!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please follow, please subscribe!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please follow, please subscribe!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1519,"2026-06-12T12:41:02.024Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","3c1b7137f16ab18006e7d7bafc2e73328bc1f1ab20e9d4a77016f95bc75f3853","reborn-in-the-80s-mountain-hunting-is-also-a-lif-chapter-46","reborn-in-the-80s-mountain-hunting-is-also-a-lif-chapter-44",1172,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-the-80s-mountain-hunting-is-also-a-lif-cover.jpg"]
