548. Leatherback turtles are back (3/10)
The cost of breeding in the island is too high, and it is difficult to correct any problems. For example, these fences are linked one by one. If there is a problem with one network, you can change the other network.
However, when the shark group gets entangled, there are several webs together, which makes it troublesome, because there are too many webs torn, so it will be difficult to replace them.
The fishermen and farmers on the island howled, but they had no choice but to do anything. The sharks were very cunning and paraded along the seabed. They arrived around the farm and attacked underwater, destroying the foundation of the fishing net and destroying even more.
Shark catching boats are completely useless. If sharks parade under the sea, even if the sonar can find them, the fishing nets will not be able to catch them.
The fishing nets of the remaining five farms were torn apart, and the sharks left with the tunas. Both sides did not invade each other. Qin Shiou positioned the tunas to the North Atlantic and let them go, waiting for the fish to arrive.
When he returned to the fishing ground, he looked and saw that the snail fish came. As soon as these brightly colored guys appeared in the fishing ground, they caused a small sensation. Herring, mackerel and little cod discovered these predators at the first time and fled in panic.
The ghost-headed swordfish were not moved at all by these fish. They might also understand that they could not catch up with them, so they wandered around the fishing ground. Later, they discovered the kelp fields and immediately got into the kelp happily.
Qin Shiou now understands the habits of ghost-headed swordfish. Because of their bright body color, it is difficult to catch food in a blatant situation. In this way, they can only find some floating objects and hide under the fish waiting to come and go.
It seems that the ghost-headed swordfish preys on the ground and it smells like waiting for the rabbit, too negative and not active enough. Qin Shiou is really worried that these guys will starve to death in their own fishing ground, because the fish transformed by the Sea God Energy are a bit clever. Over time, they probably know that the danger of the kelp field will no longer be close.
Not only small fish near the kelp field, but also big fish. The sensation caused by the ghost-headed swordfish in the fishing ground was a bit big. Snowball, Ice Blade and Bean three little boys discovered their arrival, but Snowball and Ice Blade were not interested. Bean was still hungry and pounced on it.
The bottlenose dolphin charges several times and reaches the bottom of the kelp field. It observes and aims at a fat ghost-headed swordfish. It rushed up like a sharp arrow.
The ghost-headed swordfish was unavoidable and was bitten by Yan Bean at once. Qin Shiou was about to stop Yan Bean, but found that the ghost-headed swordfish was no longer moving in Yan Bean's mouth, and he was probably bitten to death, so he had to give up.
The bean dragged the ghost-headed swordfish to swim for hundreds of meters. It felt that the food in its mouth stopped moving, so it spit out. After walking around for a few times, it found that it was dead, so it left unhappily.
Just after the bean disappeared, the ghost-headed swordfish, which looked dead, actually shook its tail and came alive. It looked around cleverly, and found that there were no natural enemies, it shook its head and wagged its tail and returned to the Kelp Field safely.
Qin Shiou was surprised to see that these ghost-headed swordfish were not as stupid as they looked, and they even pretended to die to avoid the killing of dolphins. They were smart enough.
It is not common for animals to pretend to die to avoid natural enemies in nature, because many animals do not eat scorch, and rotten animals contain too many bacteria and viruses, which can easily cause some diseases. However, fish rarely have this ability, it is very simple and has no brains, and the ghost-headed swordfish is obviously an alien among them.
This ability to escape dolphins is really good. You should know that dolphins like to play after catching food. After catching small fish, beans like to shoot them out of the water with their tails. They jump up and catch them and swallow them.
If the prey is dead, dolphins will lose interest. They only eat live animals, such as cod and salmon, they will open their mouths and swallow them alive, unlike sharks, which will kill their opponents and swallow them.
Spring has arrived, the fishing grounds have become warmer, and many ocean parade fish have returned. Qin Shiou also encountered a group of leatherback turtles that he hadn't seen for a long time.
Before, Qin Shiou controlled the leatherback turtles in the fishing ground, but these big turtles did not lay eggs or reproduce. There was no way, Qin Shiou had to let go of their restraints. Then these big turtles left the fishing ground in late autumn, probably going to the southern hemisphere to overwinter, and in the end only a few were left left in the fishing ground.
At this time, he went to the estuary of the river to see and found a large group of leatherback turtles appearing at the estuary for food. Moreover, there are many small turtles that are only the size of a palm. These small turtles are very interesting. They are not swimming by themselves, but lying on their parents' big shells.
Seeing the group of leatherback turtles coming with the little turtle, Qin Shiou was amused. Hey, these guys really have to mating and lay eggs when they are on an ocean cruise. It seems that they have to leave the fishing ground before not because they don’t like the fishing ground, but they have to breed.
Now that they have successfully reproduced, they have brought their families back to the Daqin Fishery. Qin Shiou roughly counted the number of sea turtles, including large and small, and there were 40 or 50 groups of leatherback turtles in the fishery.
Leatherback turtles cannot be eaten or sold, but they are very important to fishing grounds because they are very good at eating jellyfish. As long as they are there, the fishing grounds will not be flooded with jellyfish.
Looking at the weak little turtles, Qin Shiou generously input some sea god energy. These turtles are so conscientious that they can be trained as direct descendants.
Leatherback turtles are conscientious and model workers. After absorbing the energy of the sea god, turtles of all sizes began to clean up jellyfish in the fishing grounds.
They look dull, but in fact they have good vision. Even Qin Shiou may not be able to see the translucent jellyfish, but they can be found as soon as possible and then eaten.
The shell of the leatherback turtle is more than one meter long and has small and dense teeth in its mouth. It looks quite scary when preying. When several leatherback turtles are preying on, they just happened to encounter a group of squids who are also preying on.
Qin Shiou has invested small squids in the fishing ground several times. In a year, these small squids have grown a lot - they cannot grow faster than cod, but they are much faster than herring, mackerel, etc. The large squids are half a meter long.
Originally, these squids were eating, and their bodies were like neon boards, with diverse colors, fickle and colorful, and looked very beautiful.
Qin Shiou had noticed before that he thought this was a special body color manifestation when squids were eating. Now that the Heart of the Sea God has the ability to feel the mood of creatures, he realized that this was not the case. When squids were happy, the color on the body surface would become so colorful.
As a result, when the leatherback turtles approached, the color on the squids' bodies disappeared, and replaced by black and white belts like zebra patterns, which looked murderous.
The leatherback turtles were slow to react, they were not interested in the squids, and continued to swim forward to look for jellyfish.
The squids thought they were here to prey on their own. When they saw that the color band on their bodies changed, they could not scare others, so they could only use their tricks. They sprayed black ink out of their mouths, then suddenly contracted the jacket cavity, sprayed out water columns from the water spray holes in their abdomen, and quickly escaped with the help of reaction force.
