Golden Fishery

Lying on the beach is a blue whale, a very scary big guy, now bigger and more terrifying, some people can't see its original shape, now it looks more like a sea monster.

The blue whale is the largest animal on earth. It is said that it can grow up to 40 meters long. Qin Shiou has never seen such a long one. The longest blue whale he has ever seen is only 20 meters. He was shocked when he saw it After a while, he was inspired to be full of pride and decided to be the sea god.

That was more than five months ago. Qin Shiou and Nelson met the big blue whale together, and they haven't encountered such a big guy since.

Blue whales can be seen in the Newfoundland fishing grounds, but not casually, which has something to do with their food intake.

The mouth of blue whales is bigger than a train hole, but they cannot eat big fish. In the North Atlantic Ocean, they can only eat arctic shrimp and various mollusk cephalopods, so most of them live in the southern hemisphere, because Antarctica is rich in phosphorus Shrimp resources, that's what can feed them.

This blue whale is bigger than the one Qin Shiou saw last time. It is a full 278 meters long. Its body surface is an ugly mouse gray color, with light-colored fine stripes on its back and white spots on its chest. These markings and spots are now very well stretched.

If you don't look carefully, you can't tell the true appearance of this blue whale. Its whole body is swollen very badly, like a big leather ball blown to the extreme.

Originally, there were more than 20 huge folds on the body of the blue whale, and the belly was covered with folds, but now the folds were gone, and the skin was as smooth as leather. A policeman raised his foot and kicked it. The skin sank in, then puffed up.

Shaq saw this and yelled, "Hey man. Don't you fuck us! Stay away from it, don't touch its body! And, fuck you smokers, come on Put out the smoke!"

A police officer laughed and said: "Shaq, my old man, you are too serious, we did not disrespect this blue whale's body..."

"Fack Squid. Davis! I don't care if you respect this thing or not, get off it! It's going to explode! It's a ticking time bomb now!" Shaq bellowed.

The police are sensitive to the word 'bomb'. As soon as Shaq said that, they backed up quite a bit. Sheriff Roberts took off his cigarette and asked, "What do you mean, time bomb?"

Shaq sighed and said, "You idiots. I heard that the police are all college students, why don't they even know such simple common sense?"

Qin Shiou knew what Shaq said. Once the whale's body swelled, it was indeed more dangerous.

Whales eat continuously while they are alive,

There is a lot of food stored in the stomach all the time, mainly shrimp, crab, squid and crustaceans. After these things are digested by whales, they will produce gases such as methane, hydrogen sulfide and ammonia.

Therefore, whales have to come to the surface of the water every once in a while to take a breath, not only to inhale oxygen, but also to spew out these methane gases.

And before the whale dies. If it happens to pass through these flammable gases, it's fine, but if it doesn't. That would be dangerous.

After whales die, the internal tissue and organs decompose quickly, and the bacteria spread quickly, so that the protein decomposition of their body will produce a lot of gas, which is mixed with flammable gas, which seriously increases the pressure on the abdomen and intestines .

Once mishandled. That was a blast!

Twenty-seven and eight-meter-long whales, of course. This blue whale must not have been this big when it was alive, at most twenty meters. Its body surface was enlarged by gas expansion after death to have such a large volume.

But no matter what, this is a big thing. Once it explodes, no one around it will survive.

Shaq and Qin Shiou explained this to the police. Roberts forced a smile and said, "Is this a bit alarmist? Can this thing explode?"

Qin Shiou immediately searched the Internet for some news about whale explosions and showed him. The most recent one was the year before last. A sperm whale carcass washed up on the beach of the Faroe Islands. A biologist conducted an on-site autopsy and it exploded. The biologist and him The research team, no bones left!

"Look, the body of this sperm whale is only 14 meters after swelling. You can measure the size of this blue whale yourself." Qin Shiou pointed to the statistics after the news report.

Roberts stared blankly for a while, then turned around and shouted: "You bastards! Get out of here! Pull up the cordon and get out! Farke, Romeo, are you still smoking? I order You snuff it out in two seconds! Or I'll stick a cigarette up your ass!"

Qin Shiou looked at the body of the blue whale. It had swelled up like a big leather ball, and its body smelled like a sewer. Nelson said it smelled like hydrogen sulfide. If it was stronger, a cigarette could be ignited. Then cause an explosion!

It was a tour guide who first discovered the whale carcass. He accepted Roberts' investigation and said that when he got up at 5:30 in the morning and came to the pier to check the cruise ship, he found the big whale blown to the beach by the waves.

This big whale has been dead for a few days, probably in the deep sea. The sea breeze has been constant for the past few days, and its body was inflated and floated to the surface of the water, and finally rushed to the shore.

The tour guide is also a little shocked now, he said: "I don't know if it will explode, but stay away from it, guys, look, I shot this in the morning, it's only two and a half hours, it has already expanded a circle !"

Qin Shiou went up to look at the phone screen, there was a photo on it, the blue whale was smaller then than it is now.

Seeing this scene, Roberts, Qin Shiou and others immediately drove away from the whale carcass for a distance of two hundred meters.

The acting mayor of the town, Hani Rambo, reported to the St. Johns Fisheries Bureau after receiving the news. The death of a whale is not a trivial matter. Canada does not allow hunting of whales and sharks. When a dead whale is found, it is necessary to investigate, clarify the cause of death, and find Responsible.

After people from the Fisheries Bureau learned that the blue whale carcass was swollen, they immediately reminded them not to watch or study it. Once the whale carcass swells, it is dangerous and experts must be invited from Toronto or Ottawa to deal with it.

At this time, the area around the pier was already bustling. It was the first time for tourists to see whale carcasses, especially when blue whales became so big and strange. Of course, let alone tourists, residents have never seen such a scene.

So, one after another, by noon, four or five hundred people had gathered to watch the blue whale's body, and the camera's flash was so bright that it almost blinded people's eyes.

Qin Shiou found Roberts and said, "This is not good, buddy, everyone is a little too close, you ask your guys to pull the cordon a little further."

Roberts smiled and picked up the belt on his beer belly, and said awkwardly: "This is too dangerous, Qin, you know we are all family members, we..."

"Fake! You are the police!" Qin Shiou couldn't help interrupting him, this guy is so good. (to be continued)
