Many people have a hobby in winter - skiing. Especially abroad, skiing is loved by everyone and there are many snow-capped mountains. But everyone also has to bear the danger of avalanche when enjoying the speed and passion brought by outdoor skiing. So abroad, there is an additional working dog: avalanche rescue dog.
Dogs have a million times more abilities to distinguish odor than humans, have a 18-fold hearing than humans, have a broad vision, and have the ability to see objects under weak light. The rigorously trained search and rescue dogs have played a unique role in various disaster rescue sites. It can capture some subtle odors emitted by the human body in the air and guide the trainees to approach the human body, and at the same time determine whether they are survivors or the remains of the victims. Avalanche search and rescue is a difficult task. In the vast snow, the chances of relying on manpower to find victims are slim. With the assistance of trained and sensitive sense of smell, the probability of successful search and rescue dogs often increases.
In order to let everyone know about the work of search and rescue dogs, the Gaoshan Search and Rescue Dog Organization once released a video: The scene of search and rescue dogs saving people was taken from the perspective of the trapped people in an avalanche.
In the moment of fear of life and death unknown, first the barking of dogs came from my ears, then the sound of snow digging, and finally after breaking through the ice, a little angel smiling at you appeared: Hold on, bipedal beast, I'm here to save you!
This video touched many netizens, especially when Yuan Yuan even felt excited when he saw the scene of the dog Broken Snow appearing!
In addition to the avalanche search and rescue dog, there are also the avalanche search and rescue cats! They have a natural agility and intelligence, and can quickly find victims in the snow, and are more efficient than detectors. The Canadian Avalanche Rescue Cat Association is composed of a group of volunteers who train domestic cats in the mountains for avalanche search and rescue missions.
founder Steve Ruskay moved to Ferney in 2005 and began working as a ski patrolman. He always pays attention to the avalanche in the mountains, but feels that the traditional search and rescue methods are too inefficient. For example, if the search and rescuer does not carry a sender, it is almost impossible to find people; in addition, the detector searches one by one are also very slow, and many people have to be buried at one time to have some sense.
Lucekai said that although dogs are good at search and rescue, their training time is too long and expensive, and they cannot continue to maintain high search and rescue efficiency, so they decided to train to see cats. CARCA was established in 2008, but Luskai and his members wanted to give up a few months later because the disobedient cats caused hundreds of scratches on their bodies.
However, a miracle happened. Luskai and a cat rescuer Tim successfully discovered an avalanche victim and rescued him. CARCA was inspired by this historical rescue operation and said it would continue to train cats and build a well-trained avalanche cat search and rescue team.
Wow, what a great furry child! Like it!
