A short tour of the now closed Wuhan Wet Market. (supposed origin of the Corona virus) Not dissimilar from the thousands of other wet markets in Asia. Just really a memory of ancient life in modern times.
Ancient cultures would never be satisfied with meat slaughtered, preserved, packaged, frozen, sanitized and of unknown origin. They believed that the spirit, the qi in a fresh killed animal adds to their vitality and it is not just foodstuff and taste and protein.
Times have changed. But in the past to hunt and kill and eat a wild animal was a great event as that animal's will to survive would not make it easy for a hunter with spears. When they killed an animal every part was used and even the bones would finally be boiled for a great length of time until all the collagen and gelatinous material emerged and also reaping the benefits of the nutrient-rich marrow, the deepest part of the animals' structure.
But to see it in modern times is like visiting a zoo for the dead.
