Yang Jing and his companions returned to the Blue Whale. After a nap, they appeared on the streets of Longyearbyen again with Dabai.
But this time there was one more person in their team. His name was Mickey Kamsonov. He was a Russian-Norwegian who had lived in Longyearbyen for more than 20 years. He was the travel guide hired by Captain Andre.
Since there were still more than ten hours before the ship set sail again, it was necessary to take this opportunity to visit Longyearbyen. Therefore, Mickey Kamsonov, who was familiar with the local conditions, showed up.
Although Longyearbyen has a small population, its area is not small. In fact, the buildings here are relatively scattered, and the existence of valleys and coasts has led to the overall layout of this small town being in the shape of a T.
"We have our own airport and dock, so there are still many tourists coming here every year." Walking on the streets of Longyearbyen, Mickey began to introduce himself. After getting to know each other, this Russian-Norwegian quickly got into his role.
Gege pointed to a warning sign on the side of the road and asked, "Why is this warning sign like this? Why is there a polar bear on it?"
Mickey speaks fluent English. He smiled and said, "This is to remind tourists to be careful of polar bears. Our small town has only 1,800 people, but there are more than 5,000 polar bears living near the town. Here, there are more bears than people, so the warning signs here are not to remind people to watch out for vehicles, but to watch out for polar bears."
After a pause, Mickey said in a very strange tone: "Bear kibble, Xiaoxin!"
Gege laughed, "It's a bear. Be careful, eh?"
"Yes! Yes! That's what I mean." Mickey also laughed, "I learned this from your compatriots, but your Chinese is too difficult to learn. It took me a long time to learn a few simple Chinese sentences."
Yang Jing saw that Mickey was still carrying a gun, so he asked curiously, "Aren't guns banned here? You came out with a gun so brazenly, don't the police care?"
Mickey shook his head. "Residents here are required to carry guns when they go out. It is mandatory. This does not mean that the public security in this small town is bad. On the contrary, the public security here is much better than that in most places in the world. It's just that there are too many polar bears here. We need this kind of thing to save lives in critical moments."
Mickey took off his gun. Yang Jing looked at the gun and his eyes lit up. He whistled and said, "This is a good gun, a Mauser 98 shotgun. This gun is quite old."
Mickey smiled and said, "Yang, you have a very good eye. This gun was passed down from my grandfather to my father, and then from my father to me. This gun has a history of more than 70 years. My grandfather brought this gun here after the end of World War II."
"Actually, as tourists, you should receive training according to the requirements of the town, mainly to train you on how to deal with polar bears. But I don't think you need training. There is already a mighty wild polar bear next to you. My God, I saw the live broadcast of NRK TV yesterday. This big guy is so mighty that Jenny almost peed herself with his roar..."
Dabai looked up at the two-legged monster, shook his big head, glanced towards the roadside not far away, and a low roar came from his throat.
Yang Jing was shocked by Dabai's sudden change. He could clearly feel the murderous aura emanating from Dabai, and he could also sense what Dabai was thinking at the moment - he was going to kill that brat!
Yang Jing hurriedly followed Dabai's line of sight and found that at the door of a house not far from him, an old man was feeding a bear cub with a blue basin. He should be feeding it water, because a bear cub of this size only drinks milk and will not eat other food.
When Yang Jing saw the little bear cub, he finally understood why Dabai wanted to kill it.
This is the nature of polar bears, or adult male polar bears. Polar bears are polygamous, and male polar bears can find several "wives" to mate with when spring comes. However, the fertility period of female polar bears is only three to five days, so during this period, male polar bears must seize the time to mate, otherwise it will be too late.
But unfortunately, many female polar bears will carry their cubs at this time. If a female polar bear has a cub, then she will not mate with a male polar bear.
So at this time, male polar bears usually kill their cubs so that they can have happy sex with female polar bears.
That is to say, for adult male polar bears, it is natural to kill other people's children and let the female bear give birth to their own children. Even if it is not the mating season, adult male polar bears will kill cubs.
Dabai is an adult male polar bear. When he saw a bear cub, he naturally couldn't help but want to bite the little guy to death.
Yang Jing patted Dabai's head and whispered, "What are you doing? Stop looking for trouble all the time. Pay attention to your image, okay?"
Dabai understood what Yang Jing meant. He raised his head and rubbed Yang Jing with his big head, then ignored the little bear cub.
But Yang Jing was also very curious. Bear cubs of this size should be with the mother bear. How could the mother bear allow her cubs to leave her side?
