Chapter 1013: Whale Explosion

The phone rang a few times and was answered.

"Hello?"

"Hey, is it Ke Shaohui from the fishing industry? I'm Zhang Zi'an, we met when I rescued the minke whale before......" Zhang Zi'an was worried that the other party had forgotten him, so he introduced himself straight to the point.

"I remember, what's the matter?"

Zhang Zi'an glanced at the gray whale carcass not far away, and explained in as fast and clear a voice as possible: "I take the liberty of calling your private number, but if you call the fishing industry's work phone, the response is too slow...... Yes, a little north of the last minke whale stranding, an adult gray whale stranded here and died. ”

"Oh, it's dead?" confirmed Ke Shaohui.

"Well, I guess I've been dead for at least 14 hours, probably washed up on the beach last night. Zhang Zi'an replied.

"Okay, I'll record it, I'm dealing with a case of going out to sea to fish illegally during the fishing ban period, and I'll send someone over later. Thank you for making the call......"

There was a serious murmur on Ke Shaohui's side, and fishermen could be heard arguing with the fishery staff in a thick local accent.

"No, no, you don't get it. As soon as Zhang Zi'an heard it, he knew that the other party did not understand the urgency and seriousness of the matter at all.

He can also understand that, after all, there have been almost no whales in Binhai City before, fishermen have neither experience nor emergency plans, and are not familiar with the characteristics of whales, and the inefficiency of the public service system is well known, and it may take several years for effective countermeasures to be established in any country.

"Don't hang up just yet. "I'm telling you, it's very dangerous to stranded whales on the shore and die!" When whales die, the bacteria in their bodies begin to break down cells and tissues, breaking down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and methane, which is the process of decay." But the problem is that whales have too thick and strong skin, too much fat and protein in their bodies, and a lot of gas is produced that cannot be excreted from the body, and will continue to accumulate in their bodies, and the air pressure will continue to rise, when the value of air pressure reaches a critical point......"

"What will happen?" Ke Shaohui asked. The noise on his side was a little quieter, and it seemed that he had moved to another room, and it was obvious that Zhang Zi'an's words and tone had attracted his attention to a certain extent.

"It's going to explode. ”

Zhang Zi'an was not alarmist, and it is not uncommon for the body to explode after the whale stranded and died.

After most animals die, the carcass undergoes a process of decay, provided that it is not eaten by other scavengers. The process of decay is much the same, but the carcasses of other animals rarely explode after death, while whales have so much fat in their bodies that no other animal has so much fat that it will be decomposed to produce huge amounts of gas.

A few years ago, it was rumored that a fat man weighing more than 500 pounds in the United States was cremated after his death, and the grease sprayed from his body ignited a crematorium in Virginia.

The truth of this news is unknown, but assuming it is true, the culprit is not actually grease, but gases, including methane, produced by the breakdown of grease. When the skin is heated and melted, these high-pressure gases that accumulate in the body finally find a vent and spray out with the residual oil, causing a fire, not to mention the flammable gases that are already included.

A fat man of 500 pounds is still so brutal, think about what will happen to a whale weighing tens of tons when it dies?

There are only three passages in the whale's body that connect to the outside world - the cloaca, the throat and the fumaroles on the back, and the gray whale has two fumaroles, but there is no essential difference.

When the whale is alive, the whale can control the opening and closing of these channels through the muscles, but when the whale dies, the muscles lose control, and under the weight of tons of fat, these channels will be sealed, and the gas produced in the body has nowhere to vent, and it happens that the whale's skin is too strong, causing it to become an inflated balloon.

No matter how strong the balloon is, if it keeps pumping into it, it will eventually cross the critical point at some point and explode.

If the whale dies in the deep sea, this is not a problem, as sharks and other strange fish with sharp teeth can quickly destroy the integrity of the whale's skin. When the gases in the body escape, the whale carcass can no longer float on the surface of the sea, and naturally sinks into the deep sea, forming a whale fall.

Ke Shaohui roared violently, and shouted to silence everyone present there, and then nervously asked Zhang Zi'an, "Explosion?

"Sure, it's only a matter of time before the explosion explodes. ”

Zhang Zi'an concisely explained to him the cause and process of the whale carcass explosion, as for the consequences of the explosion......

He glanced at the whale corpse and found that the group of young people who took pictures just now did not heed his warning, and still gathered near the whale corpse, and even one person tried to climb on the whale to take a selfie, and the degree of death was comparable to that of the third Indian brother - no one knows how high the air pressure in the whale carcass is at present, no one knows how long the whale skin can last, and a person's weight may be the last straw that crushes the camel.

If the whale corpse explodes under the man's crotch...... That can really go to the moon for nine days, and you can say goodbye to his balls.

An explosion of a truck tire can seriously injure a person, let alone a whale corpse that is countless times larger than a truck tire.

In addition, the crowd that was noisy because of the stubbornness of the bear children still did not disperse.

In early 2004, a sperm whale ran aground off the coast of Yunlin County and died. According to local newspaper reports, about 600 people gathered at the scene to eat melons, enduring the low temperature and cold, just to satisfy their curiosity by seeing whales, and even attracted a large number of vendors to set up stalls to sell melon seeds drinks and snacks on the spot......

As a result, this sperm whale exploded in the downtown area on the way to Tainan City for autopsy, and the scene was as bloody as the scene of a horror movie.

At present, the number of people gathered here is far less than 600, but many people are rushing to hear the news, and from time to time new arrivals are curious to run next to the whale carcass to take pictures. Especially since today is still a holiday, everyone has leisure and is happy to come and see the adult whale with their own eyes.

If this continues, the same scene in 2004 is likely to be repeated.

This gray whale was not much inferior in size to the sperm whale, and the power of the explosion was bound to be almost the same.

Zhang Zi'an took a photo of the scene and sent it to Ke Shaohui, saying: "The most troublesome thing is that there are still very onlookers eating melons at the scene, and I persuaded them to leave, but no one listened to them." ”

Ke Shaohui's heavy breathing came from the other side of the phone, and he scolded a few words angrily, saying: "I will rush over as quickly as possible, and on the way I will notify the police to go over to maintain order, please try to persuade everyone to evacuate the scene!"
