655. Crocodile or Turtle (Ask for a Recommendation Vote)
I beg my brothers and sisters to vote for the recommendation, and the bullet shells are grateful! It's a very critical juncture, and now the results are very important for the shell, and if it can be adapted into a game (although the chances are low), the shell will be happy to die. ****
Qin Shiou happily cast a net on the beach, with tigers and leopards helping to catch fish, and the harvest was really good.
Dogs helping with fishing are common in Newfoundland, and the animal has been a loyal helper to humans since it was tamed. The most obvious evidence is that in ancient Roman mythology, Diana, the god of hunting, often led a group of slender hounds to crisscross the mountains and forests, and hunted wild beasts again and again with the help of hounds.
Newfoundlanders have long domesticated hunting dogs to help with fishing, and the Labrador is not the strongest, but even more awesome is the Newfoundland dog, which even has a duck webbed shape on its feet and is super capable of swimming.
Qin Shiou once planned to raise a few Newfoundland dogs, which were huge and very intelligent, and were very good at helping fishermen haul fishing nets, tow boats to shore, rescue victims who had fallen into the water, and also haul wood, deliver milk and pack goods.
It's a pity that Newfoundland's appearance really doesn't match Qin Shiou, he still likes short-haired dogs, such as Labradoodles, although he sheds a lot, but he just likes it.
Looking at the many tilapia in the fishing nets, Qin Shiou excitedly scratched the chins of the tiger and leopard and helped them wipe the wet dog hair.
The tiger and the leopard raised their heads and barked a few times, looking at Qin Shiou's fishing net expectantly, obviously wanting to help him catch fish.
Qin Shiou feels that in terms of fishery, there is no one in the world who is smarter than tigers and leopards.
There are many dogs that can help fishermen catch fish. Not only Newfoundland dogs and Labradors, but also in the Hokkaido region of Japan and the Sakhalin region of Russia in the Asian region. Shrimp Survivors train hounds to drive fish into the shallows and help their owners catch fish. When they encounter a big fish, they can also come ashore with their mouths.
Qin Shiou didn't want to exterminate the tilapia, so he just had to catch some and make dried fish and smoked fish.
Therefore, after catching more than 100 kilograms of tilapia in the first net, Qin Shiou called the tiger and leopard to the shore, and then threw the fishing net down at random to see if he could catch the fish, and if he couldn't catch it, forget it.
Half an hour after the fishing net was cast, Qin Shiou slowly dragged the fishing net upward. As a result, the fishing net felt very heavy, and he pulled it hard, but he felt a little unable to pull it.
When the tiger and the leopard found out, they ran over and bit the net with their mouths and pulled it up, their ears drooping, their golden fur exploded, and their four paws clung at the sand, shaking their heads and tails and pulling them back.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shiou laughed. One man and two dogs worked hard, and slowly finally pulled the fishing net up.
As the catch in the fishing net revealed, Qin Shiou slowly glared, and he found that there were not only tilapia in the fishing net. There's also a big guy in armor!
This guy is a tortoise, and he is very large, not much smaller than a leatherback turtle. Qin Shiou estimated that he weighed more than one hundred and forty or fifty pounds, just like playing.
Unlike leatherback turtles, this turtle is not only large. It also looks particularly sturdy, and its back armor is rectangular. It must be seventy or eighty centimeters long. Its appearance is cruel and tyrannical, and the crocodile is simply born of a father's mother.
The crocodile has a tough, heavy skin, and this large tortoise carapace has rough shields on its shell, and the dorsal armor shields are tan-colored, and the shields are undulating like hills.
In addition, it has many jagged protrusions on the edges of its dorsal armor, its eyes are small and spirited on both sides of its mouth, it has many fleshy protrusions on its head and neck, and its tail is thin and long and hard like a steel whip.
Seeing the appearance of this big guy clearly, Qin Shiou gasped, damn, how could this overlord-level uncle appear here?
The name of this overlord-level master is called the real snapping turtle, also known as the big snapping turtle, snapping turtle, alligator bite turtle, it is only found in the Mississippi River basin of North America, and is one of the largest freshwater turtles in the world.
The real snapping turtle retains the characteristics of the original turtle, with a hooked upper and lower jaw at the front of the mouth, similar to the mouth of George W. Bush, and is extremely sharp, and is said to be able to bite a sea snake with ease. Strong, unlike most aquatic creatures, this guy is quiet and lazy in the water, but after coming ashore, he is extremely fierce, fierce and fierce with the Tibetan mastiff.
After confirming the identity of this real snapping turtle, Qin Shiou was really a little puzzled, how could this river originate from Mount Kanbal and then enter the ocean, how could there be a real snapping turtle?
The only explanation is that someone kept this guy as a pet, and later found that it was too big to keep it, so it was released into the river.
Breeding real snapping turtles is risky, not only because this guy has a fierce temperament and the cost of eating and drinking, but also because Canada does not allow this turtle to be raised privately, they are now an endangered species, and some reports predict that if countries do not pay attention to the protection of real snapping turtles, this species will be extinct in another 50 years.
Qin Shiou knew the rarity of the real snapping turtle, although this guy looked rough and thick-skinned and durable, but he was worried that the fishing net would hurt the real snapping turtle, so he let go of the net, anyway, there were not many fish in it.
Originally, this real snapping turtle was struggling to escape from the fishing net, so Qin Shiou felt so hard when he dragged the fishing net, but when he let go of the fishing net, this guy was lazy again, and he bit a small tilapia and ate it with relish.
The true snapping turtle is very adaptable, but not very reproductive, unlike its close cousin, the Brazilian tortoise.
Meeting is fate, the real snapping turtle is not greedy, and after eating, it will lie in the water and bask in the sun, so Qin Shiou poured some Poseidon energy into it, hoping that this guy will not die in his own fishing ground, that would be a pity.
After absorbing the energy of the sea god, this big real snapping turtle got up, and the tiger and the leopard tilted their heads to look at it, they were the first time they encountered such a strange-looking big guy, so they tentatively approached it to make contact.
Aquatic biologists have a saying that true snapping turtles look like tilapia in everything - tilapia is one of their favorite foods.
The tiger and the leopard approach the real snapping turtle one left and one right, compared to other turtles, the real snapping turtle cannot put its head and limbs into the carapace, but they do not need to shrink their body, because defense and evasion are not their choice, active attack is their character.
The leopard looked at the real snapping turtle curiously, stretched out its front paws to tease it, the real snapping turtle did not move, and the two small eyes stared at the leopard as if it was a dumb melon.
The leopard pressed its carapace with its claws, and when the creature didn't react, it boldly stretched out its paws to pat the real snapping turtle's head.
Just as its claws came up, the real snapping turtle, which had not moved, poked its head out violently, like a poisonous snake coming out of a hole, opening its sharp eagle's beak and biting it!
Quiet as a virgin, moving as a rabbit, as slow as a forest, as fast as the wind, as aggressive as fire, and as immobile as a mountain!
The leopard can be regarded as a quick reaction, the real snapping turtle shook its head, and before Qin Shiou could react, it immediately pulled back its outstretched claws. (To be continued......)
