The Test of the Safari
Description
In the Test of the Safari you will learn to track and capture seven species of Egyptian fauna. Each species has unique behaviors and tracking methods, and each must be accomplished four times. More information about each species can be found here.
Principles
- Build a Fennec trap
- See a Gazelle
- Force an Otter to move to another hole
- Capture an Ibis
- Drop a rabbit for a hungry Falcon
- Detect the signs of a Fennec
Complete the test
Capture/tap 4 of each kind of Egypt's animals (listed below).
The animals of Egypt
Bullfrogs
Official game info from University of Body:
Bullfrogs exhibit almost perfect camouflage, but their distinctive sound gives them away. High Dexterity helps capture these creatures.
- Trying to catch a bullfrog uses the endurance timer.
Desert Rats
Official game info from University of Body:
Fast-moving Desert Rats blend perfectly with Egypt's terrain, but their distinctive tracks will lead to them every time. Be aware that the wind will cover up tracks over time.
footprints
footprints F7 default view
It seems they are viewable at the default f7 camera; a little more visible than last tale.
Fennec
Official game info from University of Body:
Build a Fennec trap using boards and rope. Each night, traps on the outskirts of a pack will show signs of the creatures, and traps within 250 coordinates will capture one. At least four different subspecies of Fennecs must be captured and released.
Gazelle
Official game info from University of Body:
Gazelles run faster than humans. The key to tagging a Gazelle is to tire it out. Strong teamwork is a must.
Falcons
Official game info from University of Body:
To identify a Falcon Roost, drop a Rabbit. A falcon will take it sometime within the next 5 minutes (but never within the first minute), and will fly off toward the nearest roost. Trees may be checked for roosts, but doing so is exhausting!
- Searching trees for falcon roosts seems to be triggering the endurance timer.
Ibis
Official game info from University of Body:
Only one flock of Ibis inhabits Egypt. Tagging a single bird causes it to flee, but the rest of the flock is unfazed. The flock tends to move at night, and resettle in the morning.
Otters
Official game info from University of Body:
Otters build an underground network of tunnels. it is possible to put a stick (wood) down to block a portion of the network, but if too many holes are blocked, the Otter will get annoyed and eat a stick!
