Explanation:

How did the Mowalis prepare for their long honey fathering expedition?

Answer 2

In this question, we are asked to tell how Mowalis gather honey.

• Between Bangladesh's River Meghna and West Bengal's River, Hooghly is an archipelago of estuary islands known as the Sundarbans.
• It contains the Sundarbans Biosphere Reserve, the world's largest continuous mangrove forest, which covers around 10,000 sq km of both countries.
• The Sundarbans is the only mangrove forest in the world where tigers may be found, according to WWF India. Over four million residents of nearby settlements reside within the ecosystem.
• Before entering the forest to gather, one must obtain permits from the forest department. 5 to 10 men are in each group.
• The group leader is either the most senior or the most experienced in this field.
• The mowalis dine and sleep aboard their boats throughout the trip, which is loaded with supplies for collection such as food, fuel, water, vessels, mosquito nets, and basic medical supplies.
