1740. The sea otter that wandered in
These little guys have small round heads, small round ear shells, and a round fat body. They have dense short hairs that are yellow or brown in color, with short forelimbs, broad hindlimbs, and a large flattened tail. I saw the big tails swinging from side to side, like the rudder of a ship, controlling their direction, and then swimming happily in the water, like an enlarged version of the capybara.
Qin Shiou recognized it at a glance, this is not a capybara, this is a sea otter, there is no trace of sea otters in the Daqin Fishing Ground, I don't know how they came from.
Sea otters are rare animals that are found only in the cold waters of the North Pacific Ocean, from northern Japan to the coast of Kamchatka, east through the Aleutian Islands and the southern coast of the Gulf of Alaska, and along the Pacific coast of North America to Baja California.
Roughly counted with the consciousness of the sea god, there are a lot of sea otters who come to the fishing ground, there are more than 50 of them, the sea otters with small sea otters, some lazily lying on the beach to bask in the sun, combing each other with their forelimbs, and some are diving.
There are scallops on the bottom of the sea, and the diving sea otters hold them on their chests like children holding corn, swim ashore and put them in their mouths, and in a few clicks they bite the scallops, and then take out the tender meat and swallow it in their mouths.
Seeing Qin Shiou, Sha Ke beckoned, pointed to a few sea otters basking on the beach and said, "Look, who has come to our territory?" ”
Qin Shiou pretended to be surprised and said, "God, this is a sea otter? Where do they come from? ”
"I guess it was from St. John's, and I was on the news the other day that an animal transport ship had been hit by a big ship in the harbor," Shaq said. The animals inside either drowned or fled, and the news said there were some sea otters inside. ”
Listened to this. Qin Shiou suddenly realized that he had also seen the news. Winnie also taught her daughter to draw a cross and pray to God.
The bull took a few fishermen to the boat and pulled a fishing net down, and Qin Shiou asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Shaq replied on their behalf, "We want to get these guys up and send them to St. John's." ”
Qin Shiou reluctantly said, "Do you want to return it to that master?" ”
He saw that these sea otters were very cute, one by one chubby swimming in the water, but a little dirty, and their hair was stained with a lot of seaweed, aquatic plants, fish and shrimp parts. So I wanted to clean them up with the waves and see if I could leave them in the fishing grounds.
He believes that his daughter will love these little ones, and this will also cultivate her love.
However, sea otters are protected animals in Canada and are well protected. The animal could not be caught and traded privately, and the transport ship, which belonged to an animal protection organization, was trying to transport a herd of sea otters to the Aquarium in St. John's, only to be run over by a huge ship.
Shaq replied, "No, no, let's find out which part of St. John's is responsible for the sea otters, and give them to them, because they can't be left in the fishing grounds, these little ones are very good to eat." It will destroy the fishing grounds. ”
In this way, Qin Shiou smiled, he also thought that Sha Ke and the others adhered to the excellent character of collecting gold, and wanted to capture these sea otters and return them to the owner of the transport ship.
"It's okay, guys. Let them stay in the fishing grounds, just a few sea otters, how much can they eat? ”
He just finished speaking. The fishermen laughed playfully, and the bull said, "Captain." What did you say? How much can they eat? Well, I'll tell you. They can eat a third of their body weight in a day! You can eat one of yourself in three days! ”
"And most importantly, BOSS, do you know what they eat? They love to eat sea urchins! Think about it, these sea otters are Alaskan sea otters that can grow to seventy to eighty pounds, and they can eat so many light echinococcus sea urchins in three days. The sea monster added with exaggerated open arms.
Qin Shiou pointed at him with a smile and said, "Don't think I don't know, they not only eat sea urchins, but also like to eat seashells, lobsters and crabs, as well as seaweed and small fish, which are also their food, so they have no impact on the fishing grounds." ”
He was the owner of the fisherman, and the fishermen did not contradict his decision, so when he said that he wanted to keep the little ones, the fishermen did not say anything, and took up the fishing nets and went on the boat.
Sea otters are very timid, they are afraid of humans, and the fishermen have been watching and frightened them, so the big ones drag the small ones, and they are busy running into the water, sticking out their little heads and quietly looking at the people on the shore.
When the fishermen left, Qin Shiou injected them with some sea god energy to improve their physique, and at the same time used the waves to hit their bodies to wash away the dirt on their fur, and beckoned them to come ashore.
The fat sea otters don't seem to have a good impression of humans, even if they absorb the energy of the sea god, they didn't obediently climb up when they saw Qin Shiou beckoning, but some seals in the distance saw Qin Shiou coming to the seaside, and their chubby bodies gathered over.
However, they do not refuse to be washed by the waves, but after a few waves crash, these guys react and stretch out to let the sea water wash their bodies to take away the dirt from their bodies.
Qin Shiou can understand the sea otters' fear of humans, these little guys were captured here from Alaska, and they were originally sent to the aquarium for breeding. Presumably, these sea otters must have been so frightened during their capture that they were wary of two-legged animals.
Thinking so, Qin Shiou used the sea god consciousness to roll up the undercurrent and washed some small crabs and small scallops onto the beach, and fed the sea otters in his hands.
Finally, a sea otter mustered up the courage to approach it, this is a stupid fat guy, it came to the front and sniffed the crab fragrance in Qin Shiou's hand with its nose, and then stared at Qin Shiou with its round little eyes.
Qin Shiou stretched out his hand forward, and the sea otter did not gnaw with his mouth, but stretched out a fat little short claw, pinched the little crab and sent it to his mouth, and Gaba Gaba chewed and ate it.
Seeing this, Qin Shiou laughed, he picked up two more oysters and handed them to the fat sea otter, this time the fat sea otter was out of line, the oyster shell in the fishing ground was particularly thick, it bit it twice with its teeth and did not open the oyster, so it was placed on the beach, and the front paws pinched one and smashed the one on the ground.
"That's smart." Qin Shiou reached out and stroked its fluffy little head, and as a result, he touched a hand of oil, the sea otter's fur has a lot of oil, so that they have excellent waterproof ability, avoiding the fur from hanging water to gain weight and wasting extra energy when moving.
Seeing that Qin Shiou did not harm his compatriots but gave it food, the other sea otters finally couldn't hold their mouths, and leaned up slowly, blinking their little eyes and looking at Qin Shiou's palm.
Qin Shiou divided them one by one, these sea otters did not fight, they got the scallops and crabs and put them in their mouths to bite and eat, bite and take them out, pluck the pieces with their claws, and then suck the tender meat inside with their mouths to eat. (To be continued.) )
