A Day in the Life of Tau

[00:00:00]Oh, that smells like death, man.

[00:00:04]Morning. Right now, I'm heading over to T's place. Apparently, one of T's traps to catch a pigs triggered. So, we're going to go check it out. Pretty excited.

[00:00:22]>> These are all pig uh all tracks.

[00:00:34]How do you feel?

[00:00:42]>> Just got hit in the face with like a really strong smell. Oh, I don't think this pig is good anymore. People Come on.

[00:01:26]Oh man, that's a really felt smell. Oh, there's flies everywhere.

[00:01:38]>> Oh, baggage.

[00:01:47]foreign.

[00:01:53]Okay.

[00:02:33]Oh man, I can't do it.

[00:02:39]Oh, that smells bad.

[00:02:41]That's a wild boar. Up here in the mountains, there's a lot of them. The boys kill them because they're more of a pest up here where we are. They eat all the crops. If you don't kill them, they end up destroying majority of the crops.

[00:02:51]So, in a previous video, Rastasio was talking about how most of his tar gets eaten by a lot of the pigs up here.

[00:02:57]Ideally, you want to be checking the traps every day uh in case you catch something because we do eat the pigs. It takes literally a day from when they get caught, especially when they get caught in the neck for them to die. As soon as they die, after one day, it goes off and they they expire really quick. The trap got triggered on Saturday cuz he came and he visited the trap on Friday and there was nothing there. He didn't come up here on the weekend. Uh it is now Tuesday. That trap is um they call it Maya C where they use a rope just what Se was talking about the other day where he just puts a rope and a pig walks through it and it will get them in their neck. Ideally, you want the the trap to get them on the leg and then it keeps them alive. Unfortunately for this poor dude, it caught him in a neck and what happens is they struggle and they struggle and it keeps trying to run away and then it just squeezes the neck and it eventually kills them.

[00:03:47]>> That's the same one as the one seal made. So, we've got it nicely set up.

[00:03:57]There it is.

[00:04:04]Whatever.

[00:04:29]I haven't actually seen a pig get caught in a trap before. That was the first first time I've seen a b trap actually catching a ball. Yeah, that's cool. It works. Actually works.

[00:04:50]So these grow wild. They grow in with abundance over here. You never really run out of them.

[00:04:58]This is our youngest brother.

[00:05:05]Who's >> food?

[00:05:17]I'm not going over.

[00:05:48]I think we walked about I think 50 m and we've collected this. So they just grow wild everywhere. It's a very sustainable crop up in the mountains here.

[00:06:12]Oh. N.

[00:06:27]Oh. Nah. Nah. N was planting the taro kalpalangi that he picked up this morning on our way here.

[00:06:50]Mhm.

[00:07:00]Careful.

[00:07:21]mentioned in a previous video that he doesn't bury his talang because it gives it there's more room for the taro to actually grow bigger, easier to harvest.

[00:08:31]Oh lang.

[00:08:53]forchech.

[00:09:40]We are getting out.
