Chapter 586: Snow Fox on Ice

Looking in the direction Wang Husheng pointed, there was a little Arctic fox on a huge ice block, constantly looking for something.

Through his perception, Ye Yuan could clearly see that the little arctic fox was very anxious at this moment.

Judging from its size, this Arctic fox should be in its juvenile stage.

Because of Wang Husheng's reminder, many crew members with telescopes also looked over there.

"It looks like a fox, but how can there be a fox in the North Pole?"

Ma Hua also saw the Arctic fox.

"That's an arctic fox!"

Ye Yuan really couldn't stand Ma Hua's stupid and unique system, so he could only remind him.

"There are foxes in the Arctic? This is the first time I've heard of it. Boss, please tell me about it!"

Ma Hua was as stubborn as ever, knowing that Ye Yuan didn't like his special skills, but he just didn't change.

This made Ye Yuan unable to do anything with the guy.

The Arctic fox, also called the snow fox, is an animal of the genus Arctic fox in the family Canidae.

Snow foxes range throughout the Arctic and their food mainly consists of lemmings, but they also eat fish, birds, bird eggs, shellfish, Arctic hares and berries.

Activities alone or in groups.

Its body length is 50-60 cm, its tail length is 20-25 cm, and its weight is 2.5-4 kg.

The face is narrow, the mouth is pointed, the ears are round, the tail hair is fluffy, the tip is white, the belly is lighter in color, with very dense villi and less guard hairs, and the hair on the soles of the feet is particularly thick.

Ye Yuan didn't know much about the Arctic fox. After all, the Arctic was still relatively far away from the fishermen living in China.

So he didn't pay much attention to these animals in the Arctic Circle.

"Let me go, so there are rabbits in the North Pole?"

Ma Hua's mind is very strange.

Ye Yuan just introduced some Arctic fox food, and this guy just imagined the Arctic rabbit.

"You kid! But this time you were really fooled. There are indeed rabbits in the Arctic, also called Arctic hares!

But that’s no ordinary rabbit, that’s a protected animal!”

Ye Yuan really had nothing to do with this guy Ma Hua. He had beaten and scolded him, but he still looked like that. It was really annoying and funny.

"I am a rabbit and still protecting animals? Is this Arctic fox a protected animal?"

Ma Hua asked unwillingly.

"Too!

Both the Arctic hare and the Arctic fox are species of Least Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species."

“Species of Least Concern??”

After hearing what Ye Yuan said, not only Ma Hua, but also some of the crew members showed confused expressions.

Ye Yuan could see that if he didn't explain clearly, these crew members would remain confused like this.

So he could only patiently teach the crew a popular science lesson.

Species of Least Concern refer to existing species that have been assessed but do not fall into any other classification.

They are neither endangered species nor near-threatened species, nor do they need to protect their living environment.

This type of species is less threatened and the current status of protection is relatively safe.

Many common species such as rock pigeons, night herons, raccoons, etc. fall into this category.

"Boss, look at that Arctic fox!"

Before Ye Yuan could finish speaking, Wang Husheng interrupted.

Because at this moment, the Arctic fox has arrived at the edge of the ice floe.

He is using his front paws to reach the sea surface.

It can be seen that he wants to use this method to hunt small fish on the sea to achieve the purpose of eating.

There is an old saying in China that people die for money and birds die for food, but the same applies to Arctic foxes.

You can see this from the time when the arctic fox ventured out to hunt sea fish as a child.

This little guy must have been hungry for a long time.

Ye Yuan didn't want to watch this cute Arctic fox die in front of him.

Without any hesitation, he took off his cotton clothes and jumped into the sea with a leap.

As he jumped, he left a message to the crew:

"Don't move, I'll be back soon."

After entering the sea, Ye Yuan also thought that he would feel a little uncomfortable at such a temperature.

But what he didn't expect was that after entering the cold sea water, his body didn't feel any discomfort. This should be caused by "Water Control", right?

Ye Yuan had no time to think about why he could feel nothing in the cold sea water.

At this moment, he had already seen that the little arctic fox had fallen into the water because of hunting a sea fish.

If no one helps now, this Arctic fox will never be able to return to the ice floe.

The Arctic fox had panic and helplessness in its eyes at this moment. It flapped its four legs and tried hard to get back to the ice floe.

But its efforts again and again are rewarded with the ruthlessness of nature.

Ye Yuan couldn't bear to watch the Arctic fox's performance anymore.

He swam directly in the direction of the Arctic fox's death as fast as he could.

On the fishing boat, Ma Hua pointed at Ye Yuan and shouted in surprise:

"I'll go! The boss is cheating. How can he swim so fast?"

Without his reminder, all the crew members' attention was focused on Ye Yuan.

This was also the first time they saw Ye Yuan swimming on the water on the boat.

In the past, everyone knew that Ye Yuan had good water properties, and Ye Yuan deliberately concealed it.

So they rarely see Ye Yuan's swimming speed with full firepower.

Today, Ye Yuan had forgotten to cover up in order to save this Arctic fox.

Therefore, his amazing speed was exposed to everyone.

“Boss, with this speed, it shouldn’t be a big problem to go to the Olympics and get a card!”

You Zhiyong stroked his stubble and said thoughtfully.

Ye Yuan didn't know what the crew members were talking about. At the moment, he just wanted to swim to the Arctic fox as fast as possible.

Because he had seen in his perception that the Arctic fox's movements in the water had begun to slow down.

This shows that it can no longer hold on for long.

This is normal. Although the Arctic fox can swim, this Arctic fox is just a cub.

Coupled with the lack of food supplies for several days, it is now at its weakest.

After experiencing those several all-out sprints just now, it should be in a state of overdraft now.

It took a few minutes for Ye Yuan to reach the Arctic Fox.

Logically speaking, Ye Yuan shouldn't be so slow for such a short distance.

But there was no way, there were too many ice floes on this sea area, so he and the Arctic fox could not move forward in a straight line.

If he wants to reach the Arctic fox, he needs to get around the ice floes floating on the sea.

These ice floes vary in size.

It's easy to say that it's small and doesn't need to waste too much time.

But for some large ice floes, it would take Ye Yuan some time to get around them.

This is Ye Yuan, if another person came down.

Not to mention rescuing the Arctic fox, it was hard to tell whether I could return to the ship safely.

Ye Yuan came to the Arctic fox and held it in his arms.

The Arctic Fox used the last bit of strength to open its eyes and glanced at Ye Yuan.

Its eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and could no longer be opened.
