I've infiltrated the Maasai tribe! The "terrifying upright ape" who fights lions alone

On a safari in Tanzania, I passed by a Maasai tribe Of course, I had to see the legendary Maasai people who eat raw meat and drink blood, and fight large carnivores There are about 20 Maasai tribes in the Serengeti area There is a welcome ceremony when you enter the village, with men and women separated Dressed in Maasai clothing, wearing a large necklace, a quick change of outfit You can also join their dance, it's a fun experience! They demonstrated how to make fire by drilling wood, rubbing a wooden stick on a piece of wood, and after it smokes, the fallen wood chips are placed in a block of grass that is easy to ignite and blown on, and the flame comes out! 🔥 Seeing it with my own eyes is quite magical~ Taking a photo with Maasai women, their ears are full of piercings, hanging various earrings, making a crisp sound when they shake their heads~ The village is small, surrounded by mud houses, the houses are very simple, you can say that apart from the bed, there is a stove for making fire, it's really a minimalist life... Children are in school, the so-called school is a classroom of a thatched house, Maasai children have started learning English On the way out of the village, I saw many Maasai herders. In order to protect the cattle and sheep, fighting with lions and cheetahs is also one of their necessary survival skills. People who have been in the city for too long have almost forgotten their terrifying upright ape genes. I always thought that humans are very fragile, prone to illness, afraid of cold and heat, but after coming to Africa, I realized that being able to survive in such a survival of the fittest grassland, to continue to exist, to become the top of the food chain, human combat power is actually far beyond our own imagination.
