655. Crocodile or Turtle
Please, brothers and sisters, please vote for recommendations, and the shell is very grateful! It is a very important moment. The results are very important to the shell. If it can be adapted into a game (although the possibility is very low), the shell will be happy. ****
Qin Shiou happily casts nets by the sea, with tigers and leopards helping to drive the fish, and the harvest is really great.
It is very common for dogs to help fish in Newfoundland. This animal has been a loyal helper to humans since it was tamed. The most obvious evidence is that in ancient Roman mythology, the hunting god Diana often led a group of slender hunting dogs across the mountains and fields, and captured wild animals again and again with the help of the hunting dogs.
Newfoundlands have been taming their hunting dogs for helping fishing a long time ago. Labradors are not the most capable, but the more awesome ones are the Newfoundlands. The feet of this dog even have duck webbing shapes and have super powerful swimming ability.
Qin Shiou once planned to raise several Newfoundland dogs. This dog is huge and very smart. He is good at helping fishermen drag fishing nets, pulling boats to dock, and rescue victims who fall into the water. He is also good at dragging wood, delivering milk and carrying goods.
Unfortunately, Newfoundland's appearance really does not match Qin Shiou. He still likes short-haired dogs, such as Labrador. Although he has a great hair loss, he just likes it.
Looking at the many tilapia fish in the fishing net, Qin Shiou excitedly scratched the chins of the tiger and leopards, and helped them wipe the wet dog hair.
Huzi and Leopard raised their heads and shouted a few times, looking forward to Qin Shiou's fishing net, obviously wanting to help him catch fish.
Qin Shiou felt that in terms of fishery, there is no more clever in the world than Hu Zi and Leopard.
There are many dogs that can help fishermen fish, not only Newfoundland and Labrador. In the Asian region of Hokkaido and Sakhalin Island in Japan and Russia, hunting dogs trained by shrimp remains can drive fish to the shallows to help their owners catch fish. When they encounter big fish, they can also hold fish in their mouths and go ashore.
Qin Shiou didn't want to kill all the tilapias, just catch some to make dried fish and smoked fish.
So, after catching more than 100 kilograms of tilapia in the first net, Qin Shiou called the tiger and the leopard to the shore and threw the fishing net casually behind him to see if he could catch the fish. If he couldn't catch it, it would be fine.
After half an hour of scattering the fishing net, Qin Shiou slowly dragged the fishing net upwards, but the drag felt that the fishing net was very heavy. He pulled it hard for a while, but it felt like it couldn't pull it.
When the tiger and the leopard discovered this, they ran over and bit the fishing net with their mouths and pulled it up. Their ears were drooping, and their golden retrievers were exploding. They grabbed the sand with four claws, shook their heads and tails and pulled them back.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shiou laughed loudly, one man and two dogs exerted force, and slowly finally pulled the fishing net up.
As the fishing catch in the fishing net showed its appearance, Qin Shiou slowly glared at him. He found that not only tilapia were included in the fishing net, but also a big guy in armor!
This guy is a turtle, very large, not much smaller than a leatherback turtle. Qin Shiou is estimated to weigh more than 140 or 50 pounds, just like playing.
Unlike leatherback turtle, this turtle is not only large but also looks very strong. Its back is rectangular, and it must be seventy or eighty centimeters long. Its appearance is cruel and tyrannical. It is simply born to the same parents as the crocodile.
The crocodile has tough and heavy skin, and the big tortoise has rough shields on its shell. The shields are brown in color, and the shields are rolling like hills.
In addition, the edge of its carapace has many jagged protrusions, the eyes are on both sides of the mouth, small and spiritual, with many fleshy protrusions on its head and neck, and its tail is thin, long and hard like a steel whip.
Seeing this big guy clearly, Qin Shiou took a deep breath. Damn, why did this overlord-level master appear here?
The overlord-level man's name is the real snapping turtle, also known as the big snapping turtle, the crocodile turtle, and the crocodile biting turtle. It is only produced in the Mississippi River Basin in North America and is one of the largest freshwater turtles in the world.
The real snapping turtle maintains the characteristics of the original turtle. The upper and lower jaws at the front of the mouth are hooked, which is a bit like Bush's mouth. It is extremely sharp and is said to be able to easily bite the sea snake. It is strong and different from most aquatic creatures. This guy is quiet and lazy in the water, but after getting ashore, he is extremely fierce, and is as fierce as some Tibetan mastiffs.
After confirming the identity of this real snapping turtle, Qin Shiou was really a little confused. How could the real snapping turtle appear when this river originated from Mount Kambal and then entered the ocean?
The only explanation is that someone raises this guy as a pet. Later, he found that it grows older and dares not raise it, so he released it into the river.
Cultivating real snapping turtles is risky. Not only is this guy fierce in nature and can eat and drink expensive, but it is also because Canada does not allow this turtle to be raised privately. They are now endangered species. There are reports that if countries do not pay attention to the protection of real snapping turtles, this species will be extinct in another fifty years.
Qin Shiou knew that the real snapping turtle was rare. Although this guy looked rough and thick and hard-working, he was worried that the fishing net would hurt the real snapping turtle, so he let go of the net. There were not many fish inside anyway.
Originally, this snapping turtle was struggling to escape from the fishing net, so Qin Shiou felt so hard when he dragged the fishing net. However, when he let go of the fishing net, this guy had lazy cancer attacks again, biting a small tilapia and eating it with relish.
The real snapping turtle has strong adaptability, but its reproductive ability is not strong, which is different from its close relative, the Brazilian turtle.
Meeting is fate. The true snapping turtle is not greedy. After eating, you will lie in the water and bask in the sun. Therefore, Qin Shiou poured it into some sea god energy, hoping that this guy will not die in his own fishing ground. That would be a pity.
After absorbing the energy of the sea god, the big real snapping turtle became energetic. The tiger and the leopard tilted their heads to look at it. It was the first time they encountered such a strange-looking big guy, so they came up to get in touch with it.
Aquatic biologists have a comment on real snapping turtles, which is that this guy looks like tilapia, which is one of their favorite foods.
The tiger and the leopard are close to the real snapping turtle, one left and one right. Compared with other turtles, the real snapping turtle cannot put its head and limbs into the shell, but they do not need to shrink their bodies, because defense and escape are not their choices, and active attack is their character.
The leopard looked at the real snapping turtle curiously, stretching out its front paws to tease it. The real snapping turtle did not move, and his two small eyes stared at the leopard as if it was a fool.
The leopard pressed its shell with its claws first. Seeing that the guy had no reaction, it boldly stretched out its claws to pat the real snapping turtle's head.
Just as its claws were approaching, the real snapping turtle, which had not moved, stuck its head out, as if a poisonous snake had come out of the hole, opened its sharp eagle's beak and bit it!
It is as quiet as a virgin, moving as a rabbit, slow as a forest, fast as a wind, invading as fire, and unmoving as a mountain!
