170 years ago, what sensational things did the American Downer Brigade trapped in the snowy mountains do?

Because they were trapped in the snow-capped mountains and had no food, they decided to take their teammates as food, and they began a vicious circle of cannibalism until they found other food. During this period, they killed two sick mothers without hesitation. In order not to eat relatives, we also arranged for everyone to eat. Everyone will see their loved ones being eaten by others, but no one will object. This kind of thing, human nature, will inspire all the evil in their hearts when facing despair, and they dare not think about it.

At that time, the Downer brigade in the United States wanted to move to a new place, where everything would belong to itself. The team consists of about 90 people. Originally, they wanted to take the usual route, but they wanted to take a shortcut because they wanted to get to their destination quickly. However, the shortcut is not so easy, and they met many obstacles on the road. Although they all came, they ate very little and were trapped in the snow-capped mountains.

On the eighth day when they had no food, everyone was starving. At this time, the leader put forward the idea of eating people. Of course, most people probably had this idea at that time, but they were afraid to say it. So everyone started the plan of cannibalism, and discussed drawing lots to decide who was eaten. That sounds creepy.

But in that case, we can't totally blame them. After all, everyone doesn't want to starve to death, and it's no good going out hunting. Hungry for so many days, I can only come up with such a bad idea. And this just reflects the view that human nature is evil. Think about what decision we would make if it were any of us.
