Chapter 630 Unwilling to accept the news

Just when the people on the Yushui were all attentively watching this strange natural phenomenon.

A group of behemoths in the distance were also attracted by this beam of light.

These guys moved from far to near, and soon came behind Yushui.

Ye Yuan didn't notice these guys at first.

It wasn't until the group of big guys arrived less than [-] meters away from Yushui that Ye Yuan was reminded by the cry of Xiaoxue Fox on his shoulder.

Xiaoxuehu is an instinctive warning, but Ye Yuan will not be sloppy.

He immediately released the perception, and when the perception spread out, it was only a short 100 meters.

I saw a group of sperm whales gradually heading towards their fishing boat, and the direction they were swimming was the direction where the beam of light appeared on the sea surface.

It seems that these sperm whales were attracted by the sudden appearance of a beam of light on the sea, and they also wanted to go to see what happened there.

This is not the first time Ye Yuan has seen a sperm whale in the sea.

I remember the last time I met a sperm whale, I found a piece of valuable ambergris in the sea.

But this time is different from last time.

This time it wasn't just one sperm whale, but a group of them.

Through his perception, Ye Yuan saw that this group of big guys, with big heads and short tails, looked like big tadpoles from a distance, which were very interesting.

But when Ye Yuan saw the distance between the group of sperm whales and his own fishing boat.

Quickly took out the intercom, and shouted anxiously at Ding Yi who was sailing:

"Ding Yi! Change the course and avoid the group of sperm whales behind you as soon as possible."

"receive"

After doing this, Ye Yuan shouted to Ma Hua not far away:
"Ma Hua go get the drone!"

Following Ye Yuan's order, everyone realized that their boss's attention was not in the same direction as them.

They were all concentrating on the beam of light in front of them.

But his boss kept looking behind him.

As the sperm whales approached, many crew members had spotted them.

"Boss, bring it! Bring it!"

Not to mention, this guy Ma Hua runs pretty fast.

In just 2 minutes, he took out the drone.

Debug, start, fly!

As the drone took off, all the crew members came to Ma Hua's side.

At this moment, no one paid attention to the phenomenon of the beam of light, and everyone's attention was attracted by the group of sperm whales.

Just when everyone was watching the group of sperm whales.

Ye Yuan's heart was raised in his throat.

Because such a large group of sperm whales, if they really want to hit their own fishing boat, it will really turn into a disaster.

As Yushui quickly deviated from its original course, the whales also approached.

Look at one, two, three. . . .

Sperm whales swam by their own boat.

The closest one is almost only tens of centimeters away from Yushui.

When the last sperm whale finally surpassed Yushui.

Only Ye Yuan's heart can truly let go.

Fortunately, I found it in time.

Otherwise, if the real fishing boat was surrounded by sperm whales, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Boss, don't whales not easily attack ships? What are you worried about?"

The crew also saw Ye Yuan's nervousness.

Ma Hua, a careless fellow, also asked curiously.

"Do you think traffic accidents are all active collisions?

Many of them were accidental injuries, okay?
The same is true for whales!

Although they did not take the initiative to attack fishing boats, there were still many accidental injuries.

So when you meet a group of whales, you can run or run fast!

Fortunately, there is Xuehu this time, otherwise I can't imagine the consequences! "

Ye Yuan explained angrily, he still remembered the scare just now.

If it wasn't for Xiaoxuehu's warning, I would still be attracted by the beam of light in the distance!
Thinking of this, Ye Yuan happily touched Xuehu who was still standing on his shoulder.

"Thank you for having you this time, little guy. I'll give you an extra meal tonight!"

The little guy understood the master's praise, stuck out his tender tongue, and kept licking Ye Yuan's hand.

. . . . . .

The long-lost sunlight shone on the Yushui.

At this time, the fishing boat was sailing in the waters of the Bering Sea.

Although the temperature here is still very low compared to the Pacific Ocean, it is much higher than that in the Bering Strait.

Ye Yuan sat on the rocking chair, quietly blowing the sea breeze.

Xiaoxuehu was curled up into a ball and lay in his arms.

"Boss, look at this!"

Yu Hongbo walked quickly to Ye Yuan's side, and handed over a mobile phone with a serious face.

At this moment, the phone screen is on, and Ye Yuan can easily see the content on the screen.

When Ye Yuan took the phone and saw the content on the screen, his mood, which was not bad, dropped to freezing point.

For nothing else, he saw the big title on the phone screen.

Goodbye, "King of Freshwater Fish"!The Yangtze River white slug was officially declared extinct.

Ye Yuan read the whole report patiently. He felt a little annoyed and guilty at the moment, but more of it was his reluctance to give up on the Yangtze River white slug.

The content of the report is simple and shocking.

According to the report, on July 7, the Yangtze River white slug, known as the "king of freshwater fish in China", was officially declared extinct by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

According to the article, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) will update the Red List of endangered species on July 2022, 7.

The list shows that the white sturgeon, a species unique to the Yangtze River, has become extinct, and the Yangtze River sturgeon is extinct in the wild.

Globally, the Danube population of the naked-bellied sturgeon is extinct.

The Red List also raised the protection level of seven other sturgeon species.

According to the IUCN Global Sturgeon Reassessment, all 26 species of sturgeon in the world are facing the threat of extinction.

About two-thirds of the sturgeon population is critically endangered.

River and freshwater biodiversity is vital to people and nature.

However, the global freshwater biodiversity continues to be lost, and river ecology continues to degrade.

"The results are shocking and sad, but expected," said Arne Ludwig, chair of the IUCN's sturgeon expert group.

The assessment shows that the sturgeon still cannot take off the title of 'world's most threatened group'. "

Ye Yuan was speechless for a long time after reading this news.

In fact, he has always wanted to go to the Yangtze River, and wanted to experience the life of the Yangtze River white slugs in the water up close.

In the end, before he could achieve his goal, the Yangtze River white slug was declared extinct!
The Yangtze River White Sturgeon is also known as the elephant fish by the locals.

It belongs to the order Sturgeon and lives in the middle and lower layers of the main stream of the Yangtze River. It is an endangered animal and is a first-class national protected wild animal in Huaguo.

The white sturgeon is a large economic fish unique to Huaguo, and it is listed as a precious and protected animal.

And the spoon-nose sturgeon distributed in the Mississippi River Basin in North America are the only two species remaining in the family.

This family of fish has important academic value in terms of fish origin, evolution and geographical distribution.

The white sturgeon is a semi-antadromous fish.

Large individuals mostly inhabit deep-water channels of main streams, are good at swimming, and often swim in the vast water layers of various sections of the Yangtze River.

Juvenile fish often go to tributaries, harbors, and even the brackish waters of the Yangtze River Estuary for food.
