trap

7/9

There are 4 kinds of traps that was used by Saideke tribe. Each is simple but ingenuity. The first one was used to catch the wild boar, which is strong and wild. Since I was too excited to take the photo, I decide to draw it with simple lines. 

The two orange things was two pieces of wood, and while wild boar stepped on it, the string will pull back, and pull it to the strong tree. Because the tree used in trap today was quite thin, it is hard to catch wild boar even our lovely classmate, Steven. The second one was quite savage and cruel. It used giant rock to quash all animals passing by. Like this:

It is quite amazing to see these life technical of aboriginals. In the afternoon we went to Chuenyang farm, wanted to experience the tomato harvest. Unfortunately, most of the tomatoes have not matured. The tour guide said because of the heavy rain and the low temperature these days, the harvest of tomatoes delayed. Each of us could only pick two tomatoes. What a sad story!! But it tasted good.
