623 Tracking Great White Sharks
Close to the beach
Swimming is prohibited
Surfing is prohibited
Shark infestation
Warning signs can be seen everywhere along the edge of the beach.
Sam introduced, "Nick, this is the new member of the shark investigation team I mentioned to you, Liu Wei, a very experienced wildlife research expert!"
Liu, this is Nick, a shark research expert at the University of Western Australia!"
"Hello, Liu!" Nick shook his head and smiled, younger than he thought.
"Hello, Professor Nick!"
The two just shook hands and smiled politely.
Shouts could be heard on the beach in the distance.
The crowd followed the sound to see that it was the direction in which the coast guard ship was docked, and from the sound, it seemed that they were not greeting them.
Liu Wei and Sam's faces became serious at the same time, and they ran over the barbed wire fence blocking the beach in the direction of the coast guard boat.
What came into view was the corpse of a man.
The corpse was pale and swollen.
A piece was missing from the left shoulder to the waist, leaving a rounded wound.
The edges of the wound hung minced flesh and incomplete internal organs.
Sam squatted down, looked at it with a frown, and turned around and said, "Liu, I was bitten by a shark." ”
Liu Wei nodded, and the information obtained by visual inspection was consistent with Sam's analysis.
The killer is the great white shark, which can be determined by the bite marks and the extent of the bite.
Sam stood up and said, "The government has cordoned off the coast, but there are always some people who turn over and engage in dangerous activities, and this is the sixth shark attack this year." ”
He said to the police officer on the coast guard ship, "Contact the forensic and emergency center to deal with it!"
The police nodded and entered the cockpit.
"Liu, let you see the joke, in fact, many residents of Australia will pursue the so-called human rights and freedoms at the risk of their lives, and the result is like this!" Sam shook his head, frustrated.
"Understood!" Liu Wei said a word of comfort to Sam.
He did not deliberately criticize the human rights and freedoms advocated by capitalist countries.
However, in Liu Wei's heart, his view is that life is above all else.
Only by living can we have the opportunity to exercise power.
Professor Nick and his team came over to join him, saw the corpse washed up on the beach, and shook his head, "The problem we face may be serious!"
"Get on board! Professor Nick, Liu, it's time for us to go!" Sam said.
All members of the shark investigation team boarded the coast guard boat.
The coast guard ship was moving fast, and Nick stood on the deck to observe the movement of the sea, and analyzed, "We used to think that great white sharks would only move around the coast, but later scientists in the United States got new research results by capturing great white sharks and installing satellite positioning systems."
It does not only move in the shallow waters at the edge of the coast, but also descends into the deep waters of the seabed and even in the center of the oceans.
It seems to be walking in the sea, maybe in the west coast of Australia in the first half of the year, and then in the south of Africa in the second half of the year.
Extrapolating from the time and scope of the recent cases, we suspect that the killer is most likely the same great white shark.
It's not a shark that has been active on the West Coast, and it may be an exotic species.
At least until this year, there were very few sharks that escaped the seabed surveillance equipment through the nets, so in the past decade or so, there have been very few similar cases!"
Liu Wei nodded, agreeing with Professor Nick's analysis.
According to his analysis, only the great white shark, which may have swam from other seas, should still be active on the west coast.
There is also a good chance that the shark survey team will encounter sharks today.
Half an hour after the coast guard boat sailed out of the beach, the coast guard on board put on diving gear and prepared to dive into the water with cameras to look for clues.
Great white sharks are very mysterious creatures.
Whereabouts are uncertain.
Its light brown body surface can play a good role in hiding in the seawater, and it also takes advantage of this body condition to often take surprise prey and have a high success rate.
Sam was observing his surroundings all the way, and there was no sign of a great white shark on the surface of the sea.
You can only find it by diving down.
Of course, this method is very dangerous.
The police officer who dived was a very good diver and had been involved in many operations to drive away great white sharks.
He stood on the edge of the coast guard ship and gave a thumbs up and jumped into the water.
Footage from the camera appeared on the ship's laptop.
Sam and Professor Nick stared intently at the computer screen, waiting for the shadow of the great white shark to appear.
Liu Wei faced the live broadcast room, "Brothers, I can feel that each of them is very nervous now, I don't know if I can meet the great white shark?
I'm getting a little excited right now!"
After speaking, Liu Wei walked up and said to Sam, "Professor Sam, I want to dive down and have a look!"
Sam looked at Liu Wei's determined face and asked another policeman, "Is there a diving suit on the boat?"
The policeman shook his head, "There is only one set of professional diving suits, and the rest cannot dive deeply!"
Liu Wei took off his backpack and took out his diving suit, "I have it myself!"
Put it on quickly.
Sam was worried about Liu Wei, after all, this was an unfamiliar sea area, he took a speargun out of the cabin and handed it to Liu Wei, "Take it, pay attention to Ann!"
"Thank you!" Liu Wei holding a speargun.
Professor Nick took a knee pad and handed it to Liu Wei, "This is the shark shield we designed, which can generate a strong electric current, and we have proved in laboratory experiments that it can interfere with the shark's electric sense, maybe it can help you!"
"Have you ever been in actual combat?" asked Liu Wei.
"No, this time we came out to prove our conjecture, if the conjecture can be confirmed, then we will use electricity instead of sea nets to block the great white shark!" Professor Nick spoke truthfully.
Liu Wei smiled and said, "It seems that I have become your test subject!"
Put a camera on your head, and the live phone screen cuts to the laptop.
Liu Wei smiled at the audience, "Brothers, take you to see the underwater world!"
A backflip jumped into the sea.
The picture that the audience sees is not a colorful seabed, on the contrary, the picture is somewhat blurry, which is related to the turbidity of the sea.
There is too much sediment on the seabed, floating in the seawater.
Liu Wei continued to dive, chasing the police officer who had dived in advance.
Soon, he was seen.
Because of the help of glasses provided by the system, Liu Wei's vision in the water is several times better than that of ordinary people.
He was about to catch up quickly when his eyes suddenly opened.
A great white shark rushed over in the murky waters, and Liu Wei could clearly see its head and its trembling jagged teeth.
The police officer who was swimming in front didn't seem to have noticed anything abnormal, and Liu Wei swam up quickly to remind him.
At this moment, the great white shark swung its body a few times and rushed straight over.
Liu Wei visually measured the distance in front of him, and it seemed that it was too late, so he stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, making a more panicked look, hoping that Sam, who was staring at the computer screen on the boat, would understand what he meant, and then convey the warning to the police in front.
Sam stared at the computer screen and realized that Liu Wei was referring to something, and he guessed that Liu Wei must have found something.
Before he could react.
The diving policeman had already felt the change in the ripples in the water, realized that the situation was not good, and was about to turn around and float, when a pair of dark eyes and terrifying teeth suddenly appeared in his field of vision.
As he desperately made a U-turn, the shark crashed into him.
",, here!"
"It's terrifying!"
"It's over, I can't run!"
"Ahh~, I'm going to be eaten!"
“......”
