Golden Fishery

Sail jellyfish is a marine plankton of the family Hydrozoa, which has long tentacles. When they live, the floating bladder is blue, and the sailboard is colorless and transparent. The blue sail jellyfish in the Atlantic Ocean has a clearer blue.

If it is just for viewing, the blue sail jellyfish is a wonderful species, but they are not willing to be vases, and try to be a powerful disaster maker...

Sail jellyfish are creatures that live in groups. They rely on sea wind to move around. Because this kind of jellyfish secretes gas to rise to the surface of the ocean most of the time except when they are young, so once there is a storm, they will be in groups. Blow into offshore fishing grounds, causing fishery losses.

Even in the absence of stormy weather, blue sail jellyfish can be a nightmare for fisheries because they are so abundant that they can form formations of up to 100,000 kilometers across the sea, according to the Bureau of Marine Life Statistics, a division of the U.S. Department of Fisheries. Flocks of rice came to wander.

The 100-kilometer-wide colony is full of jellyfish, and Qin Daguan is drunk when he thinks about it!

Once the jellyfish clusters appear, not only will they compete for oxygen in the water, causing the fish to suffocate and die due to hypoxia, but they will also prey on fish and shrimp! For farms, this is a very serious problem.

Qin Shiou read the news. At the end of April last year, about one billion purple jellyfish washed up on the west coast of the United States. They spread like a carpet on the coastlines of Oregon and Washington states, stretching for dozens of kilometers, turning the beach blue. .

Poor local residents who have been ravaged by Hollywood blockbusters thought that aliens were coming in, so they called the police station one after another, telling the people in black in Area 51 to send troops over quickly.

Later, experts made clear, these blue monsters are not aliens. It is a type of jellyfish, and their large-scale strandings are not uncommon, occurring every 3-6 years.

However, most of them appeared in the tropics before, and experts say that the sail jellyfish belongs to the warm current indicator species. It is a once-in-a-hundred-year occurrence in the temperate zone, so everyone has never seen it. Of course, there is no need to worry about it.

Warm current indicator species, as the name suggests, means that the place where these creatures appear means that there is a warm current passing by, and they are species that follow the warm current. Others such as skipjack are also considered such creatures.

Qin Shiou will be in pain, who the hell said the United States is reliable, didn't they say that the catastrophe of jellyfish swarms occurs once in a hundred years in the temperate zone? But this crisis just appeared last year, and it has appeared again this year, and it is still in the temperate zone. This is not reliable.

Qin Shiou is stupid, he also knows that his fishing ground has encountered a jellyfish outbreak disaster!

Jellyfish in normal state, demure and beautiful, especially the blue sail jellyfish,

This is also one of the famous ornamental jellyfish, and almost all jellyfish palaces in the sea world will breed them. But when preying, they are terrifying monsters.

The sea god's consciousness patrolled around, and Qin Shiou didn't know how many jellyfish he saw preying on them.

Met small fish and shrimp. The sail jellyfish will spread its tentacles to catch them. Jellyfish tentacles are powerful weapons, each tentacle contains hundreds of stinging cells, after capturing the prey. Cnidocytes can quickly penetrate the opponent's flesh, release venom, and paralyze the prey.

In Qin Shiou's view, jellyfish are more suitable for describing femme fatales than wasps, green bamboo snakes, etc. They seem gentle, but they are actually one of the most ferocious carnivores in the world. An absolute top predator of the ocean!

Sail jellyfish are generally small in size, after they catch fish and shrimp. You can't eat all of it, only part of it. Then the rest will sink to the bottom of the ocean to die.

And the dead fish and shrimp sinking to the bottom of the sea are not enough, they will rot, release bacteria and viruses, and cause seawater pollution...

After understanding these things, Qin Shiou became anxious. He didn't care about thinking about who was more handsome and who was a better son-in-law between himself and Armand, so he wanted to go out as soon as he got out of bed.

The tiger and the leopard hugged his legs and howled and wanted to be cute, Qin Shiou picked them up and threw them on the bed, letting them experience the sourness of an airplane...

When he went downstairs, Qin Shiou tried his best to keep his expression calm. He said hello to everyone and said he wanted to go to the beach for a stroll.

Armand asked in surprise, "It's so late?"

Qin Shiou smiled and said: "Walking on the white sand beach at night, with the silver moonlight spreading on your head, isn't it more beautiful?"

Armand gave a thumbs up, brother, you are really artistic.

Winnie followed up bouncingly, and said, "I'll be with you."

Qin Shiou said strangely: "Why are you staying with me? Why don't you stay at home with your parents, grandparents?"

Winnie wrinkled her nose, and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to think about it and jump into the sea to commit suicide, leaving me and Little Melon orphaned and widowed, how terrible it is."

Qin Shiou laughed: "How is this possible, I will always be by your side."

"How can it be forever? Time is so fast, I don't know where it all went, I feel like it's just a blink of an eye, how can Dabai get old?"

While feeling emotional with Winnie, Qin Shiou used the energy of the sea god to control the blue sail jellyfish in the offshore to float up, and then let the waves hit the beach.

The reason why sail jellyfish are so easy to erupt into disasters is that they are very good at hiding, and they will not surface if they do not erupt.

Sun Tzu's Art of War says that good defenders hide under the nine grounds, and these sail jellyfish are good at hiding.

Soon, a large group of sail jellyfish appeared on the beach. The night was fine. Although it was a crescent moon and not a full moon at this time, the moonlight was still very bright. When we walked to the beach, we could see these jellyfish.

Finding so many jellyfish washed ashore, Winnie exclaimed subconsciously: "My God, when did so many jellyfish appear in the fishing ground?"

Qin Shiou also showed surprise, and then he called Shaq, Sea Monster, Sanders and others one after another, telling them to come here quickly.

He guessed that not only his own fishing ground suffered disasters, but according to the urine properties of sail jellyfish, every time they erupted, they would destroy a piece of sea area, so now at least the entire St. Johns sea area is in crisis.

The hateful thing is that the Fisheries Bureau, the Marine Inspection Bureau and other departments did not issue an early warning, which means that these guys have not discovered the impending crisis at all.

After receiving a call from Qin Shiou, several people came quickly. They walked all the way and saw the jellyfish photographed on the coast, and they were anxious. After finding Qin Shiou, they asked in surprise, "Why are there so many jellyfish?"

After all, experts are experts, and Sanders is a real expert, which is different from those arranged by the government to dispel rumors. After seeing the jellyfish, he said: "This is a sail jellyfish. Damn it, it must have come with the Mexican warm current. It's broken. There's going to be an accident at the Newfoundland fishery!"

Qin Shiou took out his mobile phone and called Ma Jin-xiu. The old minister didn't rest, and he was still in the mood to joke when he received his call: "Did you have a fight with your girlfriend, otherwise why do you have time to call me, an old guy?"

Official Qin smiled wryly: "Mr. Minister, I have no choice but to call you. We found a large number of blue sail jellyfish in our fishing ground. I think you'd better ask the people from the Fisheries Bureau to take a closer look. I have a hunch that we are going to investigate the jellyfish. The war of resistance is over!" (to be continued)
