My Live Life at the Zoo

Chapter 374 The prototype of Mr. Crab in "SpongeBob SquarePants"!
In the largest second-hand car trading market in the country, at the final selection stage, women basically choose men. If no one keeps the light, the men can only leave in disappointment.

They should be like King Gigi, who came up to take the selection machine of the bald host, glanced around, and said directly: "The quality of this batch is not good, change another batch!"

King Gigi: Hey hey hey, did you hear me?

Seeing Li Xiao standing there without responding, King Jiji kept shaking his arms.

Li Xiao quickly regained his senses, and said: "Since you don't like these female monkeys, I will buy another batch for you in the future, but now, as the king of the monkey group, you need to take them back to the park.

You don't need these monkey mothers, your monkeys and grandchildren do. "

King Gigi: Alright!
After making a gesture to Li Xiao, King Jiji turned around and jumped in front of a staff member, spreading his hands, as if expecting something.

The staff didn't understand King Jiji's gestures, so they were a little confused for a while.

Li Xiao said from the side: "Give it the key to the iron cage."

"Oh good."

The staff reacted and hurriedly took out the key from his waist.

Before he had time to throw it towards King Jiji, King Jiji had already grabbed it with his backhand, and walked towards the iron cage with a bounce.

Immediately afterwards, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the door locks of each iron cage were unlocked with a key, and each female monkey was released.

Some of the female monkeys that were finally released were ecstatic, some were at a loss, and some ran away immediately, grinning and about to run away into the distance.

This is normal.

Just imagine, if you are locked in an iron cage for a long time and you are released suddenly, do you want to enjoy the feeling of freedom as soon as possible?

There is nothing wrong with the sense of freedom that female monkeys enjoy.

but……

This move obviously frightened the surrounding tourists.

Now that they are running wild, they are no different from the group of impolite monkeys on Mount Emei, so they will naturally be scary.

For a while, they retreated one after another, not daring to continue watching.

"Squeak!"

Just when the situation got out of control and the staff turned their heads nervously to ask Li Xiao what to do, they saw Li Xiao standing there, not panicking at all, calm and composed, as if nothing happened.

Looking at King Jiji, he suddenly jumped onto the side railing and yelled loudly.

That momentum is really a bit of a king's demeanor.

After hearing King Jiji's roar, the runaway female monkeys all calmed down.

Immediately afterwards, no matter what they were doing, they all quickly gathered around King Jiji.

Finally, under the leadership of King Jiji, they walked neatly towards the monkey park.

The battle was quite spectacular, at least neater than the military parade in that magical country of India.

Many tourists took out their mobile phones and started taking pictures and videos.

The tourists in the live broadcast room also started talking.

"King Jiji can do it, don't look at the usual joking, it's still very useful at critical moments."

"Size is also a king, and it is more than enough to tame a group of female monkeys."

"I don't understand, it's actually the director's trick."

"How to say?"

"Why didn't the director release those female monkeys himself, but let King Jiji pass? Because the director wanted to establish prestige among the monkeys for King Jiji. At least after this operation, the group of female monkeys would I thought it was King Jiji who saved me, and I will be more or less grateful and support King Jiji in the future."

"Damn, it's true after you say that."

"The head of the garden can't hide it, this city is... sizzling!"

"The art of scheming! This is the art of scheming of ancient emperors! The director of the garden is really not simple!"

Seeing the raging barrage, Li Xiao was afraid that their thinking would get worse, and hurriedly said: "In addition to ordinary female monkeys, there are other animals that have been sent. I will take everyone to have a look."

While speaking, Li Xiao stepped forward.

What catches the eye are two transparent glass boxes.

One of them was filled with water.

The other was covered with a thin layer of sand.

In this glass box covered with sand, there are dozens of crabs.

The biggest difference between these crabs and ordinary crabs is the eyes.

Their eyes stood straight up, directly above their foreheads.

The color is also more delicate and beautiful, looking from a distance, it is flushed red.

As for their breastplates, they have different shapes, some are square, some are horizontally rectangular, some are spherical or square, and the legs are also more slender.

"I'm going! What is this thing?"

"Crab! Can't you tell?"

"This is completely different from the crabs I usually see, okay?"

"It looks so kawaii, it's like touching it!"

As the camera of the drone zoomed in, the tourists in the live broadcast room were instantly fried.

Facing this strange crab, everyone was full of curiosity.

Even the surrounding tourists kept stealing their eyes in confusion.

"Big-eyed sand crab!"

Li Xiao gently grabbed one and put it in his hand, so that the tourists in the live broadcast room could see it more clearly, and continued: "The difference from ordinary sand crabs is that his eyes are very big, which is the most important thing about it." outstanding features.

The bigeye sand crab is a dominant crab that lives in the intertidal zone and the supratidal zone of the warm sea. It lives in deep holes on the beach. The holes are generally spiral, and the hole forms a sand tower.

The hole of the female crab is as high as a sand tower, and the male crab may be hidden inside.

The big-eyed sand crab is extremely agile. It often uses the second and third pairs of legs to crawl, with a speed of about 1.6 meters per second. It only uses 4 pairs of legs when it stops for a while or changes direction.

Because of their large and long eyes, they can usually peek out of the cave while they are in the cave.

The baby crabs like to eat plankton, and when they are adults, they like to climb in the mangroves, toss the branches and leaves, and use their pincers to catch flies, insects, and small rotting animal carcasses. Of course, they also eat algae.

Don't think they are easy to bully because they are small, because they originated in the Cretaceous period, and their hearing is extremely sensitive. They can hear the sound of footsteps more than ten meters apart, and then they all retreat into the cave in unison.

At present, in China, it is only found in some places with dense beaches in the south, while abroad, it is only available in island countries and North Korea.

The bigeye sand crab is not currently a national protected animal, but because of its high economic benefits, the price can reach NT$[-] per kilogram. It has been caught in large numbers, and its current number is declining rapidly.

In China, artificial breeding is allowed as a pet, and it can also be used as a snack.

Finally, I will add the last point, that is, the big-eyed sand crab is the prototype of the crab boss in the well-known cartoon "SpongeBob SquarePants"! "

"Damn it! Let me tell you why I thought these big-eyed sand crabs looked familiar at first!"

""SpongeBob SquarePants" does not deceive me!"

"It turns out that "SpongeBob SquarePants" is also a documentary, another documentary after "Tom and Jerry"!"

"Boss Crab: SpongeBob SquarePants, you're fired.

SpongeBob SquarePants: Boss Krabs...

Mr. Crab: You're welcome! "

"Don't say it, it's really the same!"

"No, no, I'd rather believe that this is the legendary gift crab!"

"Since the prototype of Boss Crab has been found, please trouble the director to find the prototype of Boss Crab's daughter!"

When Li Xiao's science popularization ended, the live broadcast room, which was already fried, was already boiling.

Even the children on the side looked at Li Xiao with admiration in their eyes.

After all, although most domestic cartoons have been reported by some unscrupulous parents, "SpongeBob SquarePants" is still popular, and almost everyone has watched it when they were young.

How can you not be excited when you suddenly see the prototype of Mr. Crab?

While the live broadcast room and the surrounding tourists were still immersed in the prototype of 'Boss Crab', Li Xiao had already walked slowly to another transparent glass.

In this glass, there are more than a dozen shrimps.

But no ordinary shrimp.

Each of these shrimps has a body length of eighteen centimeters, and the appearance is very brightly colored, consisting of red, blue, green and other colors.

The scales of the antennae are orange-red, the outer edge of the end is black, the front edge of the carapace has black and brown honeycomb lines with white edges, and the three pairs of thoracic feet and predator claws are red.

The eyes are huge, and it looks a little wise, which can compete with huskies.

"What the hell is this?"

"Like a shrimp but not like a shrimp."

"This shrimp is delicious at first glance. It grows so big, it's crispy when you bite into it."

"Oh my god, tell me I'm hungry, I want to order a crayfish tonight."

As Li Xiao slowly shifted the camera of the drone over, the attention of the tourists in the live broadcast room gradually turned.

"They're called Peacock Mantis Shrimp!"

Li Xiao opened his mouth and continued to popularize science: "The Peacock Mantis Shrimp is also known as the Peacock Mantis Shrimp and the Clown Mantis Shrimp because their colors are too bright and messy.

Peacock Mantis Shrimp are extremely aggressive, ferocious and territorial, often appearing to be fearless.Fish are its main enemies.After being caught in the open area, it always has to fight. The peatail mantis shrimp struggling in the hunter's mouth is difficult to swallow, and many of them are spit out intact.

If you put a sparrow-tailed mantis shrimp into a large fish tank, it will not take long for other small animals in the fish tank to be eaten by the sparrow-tailed mantis shrimp, so the sparrow-tailed mantis shrimp is only suitable for single raising.

Even putting them together is dangerous.

Fortunately, the group of peatail mantis shrimps did not fight, nor were they killed or injured during transportation, otherwise I would have suffered a lot. "

"Director, what is the prototype of this peacock mantis shrimp?"

"Is it Pipi shrimp?"

"Just tell me, I'm so curious!"

"The Peacock Mantis Shrimp is not the prototype for any animal we've seen in cartoons! But..."

Li Xiao took a deep breath, and said in a convincing manner: "The peacock-tailed mantis shrimp has two characteristics that make them invincible, and even dare to confront human beings head-on.

First, is their 'fist'.

It is said to be a fist, but it is actually their second pair of jaws.

This is their sharp weapon for predation and defense.

The frontmost segment of its catching limb is single thorn-like, the end is very sharp like an awl, and the root is raised and thickened.

When they're folded up, the thickened parts act like a hammer to crush the hard shells of crustaceans, molluscs, snails, and more.

And when they are stretched out, they can easily pierce the animal's soft tissue.

After tens of millions of years of evolution, this pair of fists is full of power, a bit like a praying mantis, even the way of predation is similar to that of a praying mantis.

Don't underestimate this pair of fists. It can eject the front end of the trapping limb within one-fiftieth of a second. The maximum speed exceeds 5.588 kilometers per hour, and the acceleration exceeds that of a [-] mm caliber pistol bullet. With an impact force of up to [-] kilograms, the instantaneous high temperature generated by friction can even cause electric sparks to appear in the surrounding water.

Scientists once wore gloves when they went into the sea to catch them, and all of them injured their fingers and bled profusely.

After taking it back to the laboratory, it was placed in a graduated cylinder, and the graduated cylinder was also smashed by it, which shows the ferocity.

And its fist will be damaged after about [-] knocks, and it will make up for the loss of its "fist" through periodic moulting.

If it was as big as a person, with a single punch, it could directly smash the melon seeds of a person's head into meat sauce.

Because of this, the peacock mantis shrimp is known as the unrivaled "boxer" in the sea world!
In addition to this, peacock mantis shrimp can also see color.

Its color vision can cover all the spectrum that humans can see, and it can also see ultraviolet and infrared rays that humans cannot see. Some mantis shrimps can even distinguish 16 colors.

Mantis shrimp's unique eye structure allows them to see polarized light, and many animals also have this visual ability, such as certain spiders, insects and migratory birds, and birds can even use polarized light to navigate.

However, mantis shrimp can not only recognize linearly polarized light, but also circularly polarized light.

Not only that, but they can also sense taste in water.

These two points are far beyond the reach of human beings! "

"Is it so awesome?"

"It looks like a small one, but I didn't expect it to be so fierce!"

"Isn't this the flat-headed brother at the bottom of the sea? He dares to fight anyone, and he is not afraid of anyone."

"Just now I wanted to eat these shrimps, but now after hearing what the director said, I suddenly feel that I am so unworthy!"

"Me too! I'd better eat ordinary crayfish. If I eat this kind of shrimp in my mouth, I'm afraid that it will dry out my teeth with a punch!"

The terror of the peacock-tailed mantis shrimp immediately frightened the tourists in the live broadcast room.

"Because of this, I didn't reach out to grab the Peacock Mantis Shrimp just now to let everyone see it more clearly."

Li Xiao continued: "Unlike other animals, the peacock mantis shrimp can reproduce all year round, peaking in the warmer months.

Spawning occurs at night, and typically shrimp eggs are carried in bulk by females who tend to their eggs until they hatch.

Peatail mantis shrimp are usually monogamous, however, sometimes they mate with different partners. After all, the environment is getting worse and worse, and they can only do this in order to continue their offspring.

The details of the process of mating, spawning, and hatching in the cave of the mantis shrimp are difficult to observe, but this time I can take a good look at it. "
