Leisurely Live Broadcast from Ocean Global

At this moment.

There are tens of millions of water friends in the live broadcast room.

Most of them are very curious, what Yang Xu just said.

What exactly does that mean?

The so-called and ordinary fish body structure is different.

Where is the difference?

Ida asked curiously: "Judging from the body structure of this 'short-nosed batfish', it doesn't seem to be much different from other fish..."

This is indeed the case.

Just like some of the more habitual audiences.

as perceived.

Although this 'short-nosed batfish' looks sloppy, it is not round at all.

It even looks like a combination of dead leaves and shell parasitic algae.

but!

If only in terms of the body structure of the body surface.

Other fish have it, it has it all.

Mouth, eyes, pectoral fins, dorsal fins, pelvic fins, caudal fins, etc.

If only to find the difference.

The scales may be quite different.

430 Even from the outside, it is impossible to even tell if it has scales at first glance.

The audience in the live broadcast room deeply agreed with Yi Qian's statement:

"Indeed, apart from being a little weirder, its front fins are like the little hands of a seal, and it can crawl on the bottom of the sea!)

[My dear, I have only heard of it before, in the deep waters of the deep sea, marine creatures can grow as they please, and now I have really seen it, it looks really ugly QAQ)

【Jimei in front, haven't you noticed, although it is ugly, but if you look closely, it is also a little cute!"

[This is so ugly and naturally cute?)

Facing the doubts of sand sculpture netizens and Yi Qian.

Yang Xu didn't sell out.

He said straight to the point: "The reason why they can swim at the bottom of the sea is entirely in the body of this 'short-nosed batfish', and there is no swim bladder, so this makes them lose the ability to float freely in the ocean.

well known.

Maw is for fish.

Can play the role of regulating buoyancy.

When the swim bladder is filled with gas, the fish can float.

without any exaggeration.

For the "short-nosed batfish".

There is no swim bladder, an organ that other fish have.

Make it like a bird has lost its wings.

flightless bird.

and fish that cannot swim.

Essentially the same.

Therefore, they can only continuously evolve the ability of their front fins.

It crawls, forages, and survives on the shallower seabed.

Hear what Yang Xu said.

Yi Qian stared at the screen and looked at it.

In the footage captured by the underwater camera.

The "short-nosed batfish" crawls slowly using its front fins.

By comparison.

Their caudal fins are in the process of moving (bdfe).

It's not doing much anymore.

For ordinary fish.

The caudal fin can adjust the direction and provide power during swimming.

But for the 'short-nosed batfish'.

only when in danger.

In the case of a last resort, they will use their tail fins less to increase the speed of escape.

Yang Xu went on to say:

"They crawl slowly on the bottom of the sea, and small fish, small shrimps, small crabs, and even larger plankton are in the short-nosed batfish's diet. If they are threatened and frightened during the process of foraging, they will Rarely use the caudal fin to provide more escape power."

in the live broadcast room.

Recorded by underwater cameras, the nose is constantly 'short-nosed batfish'.

Like deformed shellfish covered in seaweed.

It looks like dead branches rotting in the sea.

At the same time, it is also like a gray sea, and a mutant combination of unicorns.

For a while, the marine biology research institutions that followed Yang Xu's live broadcast room were quite concerned.

Even if it's not a new species that has never been discovered.

But want to find this "short-nosed batfish"

mouth

It's not an easy task.
