What Yang Xu didn't expect was.
When he uses the ability of [species tracking].
When trying to find this chameleon-like peculiar seahorse in the surrounding area.
The results are surprising.
Within a radius of 5 nautical miles.
Yang Xu only found dozens of seahorses of the same type.
He couldn't help thinking:
Could this kind of seahorse have not been recorded by humans before, and is it about to become extinct?
Such as the well-known 'big belly hippocampus'.
The reproductive ability is still very strong.
More than 1,100 babies can be born.
therefore.
Today.
IUCN's "World List of Endangered Species Conservation".
Only one kind of seahorse is recognized as an endangered species of 'EN level'.
What Yang Xu can be sure of is.
Within 5 nautical miles, the number of newly discovered seahorse species is very scarce.
Their living conditions are certainly not very optimistic.
If it is widely distributed, and the breeding survival rate is high.
Not so far.
None of the marine biologists have discovered.
And recorded this kind of marine life!
Yang Xu couldn't help but sigh.
I discovered an unnamed species at the same time.
Is it tantamount to discovering an endangered species?
…
At the order of Yang Xu.
Yiying quickly got the tools ready.
In order to bring the newly discovered 'chameleon seahorse'.
Transfer to the aquarium of Yunfan.
Yang Xu thought whether these newly discovered seahorses were on the verge of extinction.
But the seahorse he brought back.
It must be impossible to die easily.
After all, the previous system rewarded [Ecological Simulated Feeding].
The main ability is to reduce mortality! At the same time increase the survival rate!
The unexpected result of [species tracking] just now.
Let Yang Xu think that it is even more necessary to bring this seahorse back.
If it is really the worst result.
At the very least, I can save a 'fire seed' for their species.
Although in a short time.
Yang Xu found a lot of information, and produced many ideas and plans.
But the sand sculpture netizens in the live broadcast room.
It's all about eating melons and the laymen watch the fun.
The barrage is all one piece:
'Fuck'
'Niu Bian'
"Cute love"~
Messages like…
Only a few viewers were shocked by this!
Because the characteristics of this seahorse are too many!
It is a seahorse that has never been recorded.
It is also the largest hippocampus ever recorded.
In addition, it also has a strong ability to disguise and change colors!
Experts can see all the doorways.
Among these experts.
It also includes Lao Chen, who is following the content of Yang Xu's live broadcast.
Professor Chen Lao from the Institute of Marine Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
It was because of the 'Pacific Panda Dolphin' that I met Yang Xu before.
Therefore, after Yang Xu discovered this "new seahorse" which has never been recorded in the book.
As a senior scholar in marine biology.
Professor Chen briefly listed some important information and sent an email to the mailbox of Yunfan.
Old Chen also tried to contact Yang Xu by phone.
It's just that both of them are busy transferring the newly discovered seahorse to the aquarium of the yacht.
I can't get in touch in the first time~
As a seahorse that has never been recorded.
This is the "New Sea Horse" discovered by Yang Xu.
Naturally, it will not appear on IUCN's "World List of Endangered Species Conservation".
The same reasoning will not appear in the "CITES Washington Convention" which restricts the trade of endangered animals.
Therefore, this unknown sea horse.
Strictly speaking, it is not a protected animal that is prohibited from being caught.
Humans have never discovered it before…
…
After some busy schedule.
Inside the yacht Yunfan.
An aquarium with some coral water plants as decoration and food.
Welcomed the first 'guest'!
Mr. Haima~
In the process of transferring the newly discovered seahorse to the yacht.
The system capability [Encyclopedia of Marine Biology] gave Yang Xu a certain understanding of this 'new seahorse'.
One thing worthy of surprise is!
Their reproductive ability is as strong as that of the 'Big-bellied hippocampus'.
To put it simply, one child can give birth to 800 babies~
The only difference is.
This unnamed hippocampus has a higher mortality rate for babies born.
Therefore, Yang Xu's previous judgment is still a bit accurate.
I think the reason for this scarcity of hippocampus is because of the high mortality rate of larvae.
In the screen of the live broadcast room.
The seahorse that is close to 40 centimeters, compared to the small size of an ordinary seahorse, is indeed an 'aggressive giant'!
Its round eyes looked around.
And the color of the body.
It will also change due to the color of the surrounding corals.
So as to realize the 'perfect camouflage' that blends with the background color!
[Wow~ this seahorse looks amazing! Like a chameleon in the sea, but also a master of disguise with 'superior skill'! ]
[I am majoring in marine biology, and I checked the information in the online library just now, and it seems that no seahorse of this size has been recorded. ]
[If it weren't for those round eyes that easily expose itself, it is indeed a good camouflage! ]
at the same time.
Professor Chen from the Institute of Marine Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Finally contacted Yang Xu who returned to the yacht.
During the call with Professor Chen, Yang Xu was not in front of the camera in the live broadcast room.
Instead, he returned to the upper deck of the yacht cockpit.
…
Yiying left in front of the aquarium.
She looked at the seahorse that could change colors at will.
Yiying feels novel at the same time.
I am also curious about what species they belong to?
"Maybe Xu's little discovery will not only add a small partner to the Yunfan, but also allow those pediatric biologists to better understand and protect the ecological environment of the'New Seahorse'."
Yiying scratched her head, and then felt that Brother Xu was unlikely to take care of these things.
Brother Xu hates trouble the most.
It took about ten minutes.
Yang Xu, who had finished the phone call with Professor Chen, returned to the camera.
Yi Ying came over and asked curiously, "What did Professor Chen tell you? Wouldn't you be able to give Xiao Haima a scientific name again?"
Discovery of an unknown subspecies of organisms and give them a scientific name.
Yang Xu has experienced it once before.
only.
This call from Professor Chen.
The main purpose is not because of this.
Yang Xu answered with a smile:
"Professor Chen told me something about his personal views on this'new seahorse'."
What are the opinions of experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences?
It made Yiying and the audience in the live broadcast room very curious.
Actually.
Among Haima's 'big families', there are also existences that pretend to be masters.
They are 'Pygmy Seahorses'.
It is different from the newly discovered hippocampus.
Pygmy Seahorse is not only small.
And it is the smallest seahorse in the world!
Compared with the 'new seahorse' that Yang Xu found about 40 centimeters.
In the same 2.9, the Pygmy Seahorse, which has the ability to camouflage with body color, has a minimum record of only 1 cm.
It's 40 times different.
Therefore, Professor Chen believes that the two have something in common at the same time.
It also basically denied that the newly discovered hippocampus belonged to the Pygmy hippocampus.
The audience in the live broadcast room listened very attentively.
[It turns out that the smallest seahorse in the world is only 1 cm? Increase knowledge! ]
[In this way, the seahorse discovered by Brother Xu is simply a'Big Mac' existence! ]
Yiying then asked:
"In addition to these, what did Professor Chen say?"
Yang Xu shrugged and said, "He asked us to measure the length of this seahorse and provide some photos. It may be the largest in size since humans have recorded the seahorse."
Heard this…
The audience in the live broadcast room was all stupid.
40 cm break the world record?
This f*ck is also OK?
"Mr. Sea Horse" is amazing!
