My Deep-sea Fishery

The smoke curled up, with a tangy fragrance, causing many people on the boat to swallow saliva involuntarily.

It may be because of the smell. Many seabirds are attracted around the fishing boat. However, it may be because of the ferocity of the stiff-headed sea eagle.

On the contrary, there were a lot of fish in the sea, swimming up to the boat.

Even Xiang Yang saw a group of big guys.

At that time a group of walruses.

"There are so many walruses in Antarctica." Fang Youqun said while chewing on the grilled squid, pointing in a direction in surprise.

In the direction of Fang Youqun's finger, there was a large group of walrus churn in the sea.

They are huge, their skin looks thick, and they have a lot of wrinkles.

Xiang Yang's eyesight is very good, and he can see that the walruses have sparse bristles on their skin.

Xiang Yang smiled and said, "There are only a few dozen walruses. In the walrus family, they can only be regarded as the smallest group."

Walruses are social creatures like elephants.

An explorer once photographed tens of thousands of walruses gathering together on the beach of a deserted island. In that scene, the walruses are really gathered together, endless.

"These walruses are so ugly. With such long teeth, but short noses, and without ear shells, they look much uglier than sea dogs." Fang Youqun said with disgust.

Xiang Yang smiled and did not speak.

In terms of appearance, the walrus is naturally not as good-looking as the elephant on the land.

Elephants on land have fat heads and big ears, limbs like pillars, and a long nose.

The walrus is different. The limbs of the walrus have become fin-shaped due to adapting to the life in the water. Although this allows it to swim faster in the ocean, it makes it unable to walk on land like an elephant.

Walruses can generally only move in the ocean and on ice.

When on the ice, the walrus can crawl forward on the ice by relying on the combined effect of the rear fins bend forward and the fangs pierced into the ice.

"Don't watch it, don't watch it, these things are too ugly, and looking at it will affect my appetite." Fang Youqun turned his head and said.

When Xiang Yang heard this, he suddenly laughed, "The walrus does not look very good, but if it affects your meal, isn't it?"

"Why not? Look at those guys, they are rolling in the sea, just like pigs in a pigsty." Fang Youqun said with disgust.

"what?"

As he was talking, Fang Youqun suddenly stopped. He looked at the walruses with bright eyes and asked, "Brother Yang, I remember that ivory is very valuable. Do you think the teeth of these walruses are worth?"

Xiang Yang shook his head, "You think too much, but the teeth of elephants are treated as gems. The teeth of the ocean are so rough that they are not worth mentioning compared to ivory. Otherwise, how can you see so much on the sea? Walrus?"

When Fang Youqun heard this, he was completely disinterested in these walruses.

"It's so ugly, it's not worth the money. I don't watch it, I don't watch it, and I really can't eat it anymore," Fang Youqun muttered.

Xiang Yang squinted his eyes and continued to look at the walruses.

Those walruses are still some distance away from the fishing boats. The walruses have very poor eyesight, which is similar to being blind.

Even for such a large fishing boat, they may not necessarily be visible.

But the walrus has a very sensitive sense of smell.

Xiang Yang was sure that the walruses must have come here smelling the scent of barbecue, but they may have been frightened by such a giant fishing boat, so they did not dare to approach the fishing boat.

Speaking of which, these walruses are quite lucky. In Antarctica, they are almost at the top of the food chain. Because of their ugly appearance and worthlessness, even fishermen are unwilling to catch them.

Those walruses that live in the Arctic are not so lucky.

When the polar bears are short of food, they often give their ideas to the walruses.

Every year, a large number of walruses are killed by polar bears.

Suddenly, Xiang Yang found that the walruses were panicking, and all of them were struggling with their fins and swimming towards the distance.

"Huh? The walrus will actually run away. Could it be that the killer whale is coming?" Xiang Yang asked quite puzzled.

The walrus has thick skin and thick flesh. Almost only killer whales can kill the walrus in the entire Antarctic.

With the exception of killer whales, even leopard seals can hardly kill walruses.

However, killer whales generally do not kill walruses.

It's not that walruses are very weak in combat effectiveness. Killer whales will be injured when they kill them.

But the walrus is a sea creature that is very courageous. Once they encounter a killer whale, they will run away desperately and quickly climb onto the ice.

Killer whales cannot get on ice, so there is no way to get walruses.

"There are no obvious waves on the sea, it should not be a killer whale." Wu Shiwen, who came to Xiangyang to eat and drink, stood up and said.

Xiang Yang smiled and said: "That's not necessarily true. If the killer whale launches an attack from under the sea, even if there is a wave, it will be under the sea. You can't see it, huh, what is that stuff?"

"It's a sting jelly." Wu Shiwen said with a solemn expression.

Sting jellyfish is also a very dangerous jellyfish. It has a transparent appearance and looks like a crystal ball. In fact, the toxin is very strong. Adult men only need to run into it, and it will be painful immediately.

If someone encounters a sting jellyfish in the sea, they will often pass out in pain and drown in the sea alive.

"What's there to be afraid of? We even fished a box of jellyfish. We were afraid of stinging jellyfish? Then we drank and barbecued." Chen Qingsheng pulled Wu Shiwen's wrist and motioned for him to sit down.

"It doesn't matter what jellyfish it is, as long as we don't get into the water, they can't do anything with us." Xiang Yang also said with a smile.

After thinking about it, Xiang Yang said: "Even if you are under the water, you are not afraid of it. Although the diving suits on our boat cannot withstand the bite of hammerhead sharks, the toxins of jellyfish are not afraid."

After Wu Shiwen listened, he sat down slowly again, but it was obvious that he was now unsure, and the corner of his eye was constantly looking at the sea.

"How come there are so many sting jellyfish here, you see, from the floating ice over there to the wave position here, it is looming, there are sting jellyfish everywhere, I am afraid that there are more than tens of thousands of them." Wu Shiwen Said.

Xiang Yang smiled and said: "The biggest natural enemy of jellyfish is sea turtles. In Antarctica, except for special sea turtles such as spines, there are almost no sea turtles, no natural enemies, plus sufficient food, it is not easy to reproduce. Something?"

When Wu Shiwen heard it, he pointed his head thoughtfully, "Yes, plus there are few traces of human activity in Antarctica, and no humans deliberately salvaged them, this number is indeed easy to reproduce."
