1464. Bringing Back to the Fishing Ground (4/5)
The blizzard is coming, and the wind and waves on the sea are getting bigger and bigger, and the big waves of four or five meters are surging one after another, even if the tonnage is like the Melon Princess, it is constantly shaken by the beating.
The two giant ships were ready to leave, the Melon Princess in front and the Maine Bulldog in the back, breaking the wind and waves.
A large group of people crowded into the dining room on the Melon Princess, and two fluffy little Greenland seals were placed in the middle of the floor, blinking at the crowd with cute black eyes, and their faces were dazed.
This was brought back by Qin Shiou, and Winnie was so happy when she saw it, he brought back two, so Winnie hugged this and that, a picture of a happy bear cub.
Geng Junjie and others saw seals for the first time, and they discussed: "This is a seal cub?" It's really cute, pure white fur, just like a doll. ”
"I really want to bring one to my daughter, my daughter saw the seal on TV and clamored to go to the zoo to see it, but unfortunately there was no money for it, so I didn't take her to see it."
"Then how can there be seals on board? The boss said that there are more than a hundred, what's going on? ”
Shaq pinched a piece of cod and went up to tease the two little ones, the little ones have a bad sense of smell, seals are like this, they can only distinguish their parents and family members by their sense of smell, and the nose is the decoration.
They had never seen a cod piece, and their noses were not good, so they watched in a daze as Shaq dangled it there, and did not know how to get up and eat it.
Qin Shiou asked the little melon to carry a herring, and then helped her feed the little seal.
Herring is one of the favorite foods of the baby seals, and they are familiar with it, and the two little ones compete to eat the herring. I went up to the little melon and put my round head against her legs, and asked for herring to eat.
Winnie was overwhelmed by their adorable appearance. Spoiled up and stroked the brains of the two little guys.
Xiong Er followed Winnie in the same direction, because it was Winnie who nursed her every time. The little guy seems to treat her as a mother and wants to follow her all the time, which makes the little melon, the little lynx, and the little white wolf very dissatisfied.
After following a few steps behind, the bear cub sat down and put on a cute look, opened his mouth and whined twice.
Qin Shiou laughed and said, "Winnie, your bear cub is calling you." ”
Winnie said unhappily, "What bear cub?" To put it nicely, it's a little lady. ”
Qin Shiou said, "Okay, then I'll say it again, Winnie." Your bear Lori is calling you. ”
Winnie laughed, she turned around and scratched the neck of the bear cub, the comfortable bear cub lay on the ground, and then looked at the little seal with demonstrative eyes: Fuck off, Clown B, this bear baby is naturally beautiful, you still want to compete with me for favor?
As soon as it said that, Winnie went to tickle the baby seal again.
Now something went wrong, and the jealousy of the cub was burning. Get up and rush to the baby seals, opening their mouths and screaming to scare them.
Polar bears are natural predators of harp seals, and although baby seals are not much smaller than their cubs, they are naturally afraid. As soon as the cubs approached, they quickly and timidly retreated.
Seeing this scene, the melon's eyes widened. She turned her head to look and saw a floor painted in the corner. Trotted over to pick up the floor brush and dragged it over. Pick it up and smash the bear cub to the ground.
The enemy of the enemy is the friend, not to mention that the melon had fed them herring just now, and the baby seal immediately flocked to the little girl, staring at the bear cub majestically.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the snowflakes were pounding against the glass windows like stones, but fortunately, both ships were large enough to withstand the crazy waves and enter the docks at Cape Nyne before dark.
On the wharf, more than a dozen police cars were waiting here, and as soon as the ship docked, people from the coast guard, the local mounted police, courts, newspapers, and media poured into the boat like a tide.
Thirty-two people died, this matter has spread all over Cape Ne in the shortest possible time, in fact, it is estimated that half of Canada knows the news, these police cars and reporters are not from Cape Inn, but from the surrounding cities.
Qin Shiou and others can't leave yet, they are the parties involved, and they need to cooperate with the investigation, cooperate with the collection of evidence, etc., but there is also a good point, that is, they don't have to pay for food, drink and accommodation in the past few days, and the government is responsible.
The colonel told Qin Shiou to go together, saying that they would leave in a police car, otherwise they would be blocked by reporters.
Qin Shiou asked, "Then we all get off the boat, what about the seals on the boat behind?" ”
The colonel shrugged and said, "Maybe it will be accepted by the local animal protection society, right?" Or just put it into the sea, it's already on the coast, and they can survive if they find a random place, don't they? ”
Harp seals spend most of the year at sea and are good swimmers, but occasionally come ashore to rest or hide from predators, and Cape Neen is in the northern region of Labrador, where the year-round cold is really suitable for harp seals.
Qin Shiou felt that this was the only way, but Shaq gave a different opinion, he said: "No, Colonel, you can't put these seals here, Labrador is a seal hunting ground, leave them here, they won't survive this year's hunting festival!" ”
Canadians have a festival that Qin Shiou finds very perverted, and that is the Seal Hunting Festival, which begins on April 9 every year, and the state allows people to hunt seals, as long as they are more than a month old, they can be killed.
During this week, the North Atlantic and North Pacific coasts are sure to be bloody, and I don't know how many seals will be killed, and the Labrador region is the hardest hit by the festival every year due to the mild weather and seal abundance in April.
As soon as Shaq said this, Winnie reacted and exclaimed, "Yes, you can't just throw away these cute little animals, they're not garbage!" Besides, don't you protect them? They are also participants in this case, and they are witnesses, right? ”
The colonel laughed and said, "Madam, are you teasing me?" They had nothing to do with this case, it was just that the people on the boat had caught the seals and wanted to bring them back to be slaughtered, skinned and sold. ”
"And what are you going to do with these seals?" Qin Shiou asked.
He looked back and saw that Melon was squatting on the ground and playing with the two baby seals, I don't know if it was because of the little seals just fed, Melon rarely showed aggression towards cute pets, but played with relish.
The colonel said patiently: "Mr. Qin, the final disposition of these seals is not mine, I am a soldier!" In fact, I'm as concerned about the end up of these seals as you are, but I can't think of any other way to do it than release them on the spot. ”
Qin Shiou thought for a while, and under the expectant eyes of Winnie and the fishermen, he said slowly: "Perhaps, you can leave it to me to deal with, I have a fishing ground, how about I bring them to my fishing ground?" (To be continued......)
