Chapter 343 Whale Falling

Except for biologists.

More literary poets and literary creators have always attached countless emotions to the word "whale falling".

Call it the last tenderness that a whale leaves for the sea.

The whale falls into the sea, and the stars fall into the depression.

This is the poignant beauty and shock unique to nature.

But in the eyes of biologists, there's more to it than just that.

What can a whale carcass bring to an ocean? How long will the impact last? Does it even have an effect on the whales themselves?

These are the natural mysteries that they want to explore to the end.

“We have discovered many traces left by whale falls, from decades ago, more than ten years ago, even a few years ago, from all periods, all over the major oceans of the earth.

A large part of whale falls can provide the nutrients required by some microscopic life for hundreds of years on the seabed thousands of meters deep. You know, in 1998, researchers found that at least 43 organisms of 12490 species depend on Whales survive.

While they rely on whale falls to survive, they also emit some unknown signals.

We speculate that whales living in the sea now can use the locations of these whale landings around the world to locate where they are and where they want to go.

Just like people use the stars in the sky to determine their location. However, we still need further exploration and research to know this. "

In fact, some scientists have been studying whale falls for a lifetime. Not only have they found many new and unknown creatures in whale falls, but they have also learned more about the survival methods of deep-sea creatures.

At this moment, Wang Anan once again felt an indescribable sense of mystery and awe for the ocean from these whales.

The huge body of the whale was taken from the ocean and finally returned to the ocean silently.

Of course, some people will say that in addition to whale falling, there is also whale explosion.

Yes, after a whale dies, in addition to sinking to the bottom of the sea to form a whale fall, it may also produce a large amount of gas, float on the sea surface, and finally explode, forming a whale explosion.

It is true that whale explosions have a high probability of endangering human life and safety, but the benefits of a large number of whale falls to the entire ecosystem cannot be denied.

In different fields, different professionals will study them separately.

This time, Wang Anan and the others neither studied whale falls nor came into contact with whale explosions.

Instead, he is committed to studying the life and communication methods between killer whales, and in-depth observation of the relationship between whale mothers and their children.

It has to be said that going into the water is a dangerous and exciting thing, and it also allows for clearer recording and data analysis.

“Next we will deploy some of the underwater bionic photography equipment.

Although their movement is not as long as that of the whales, it is enough for us to study the whales without moving fast, and we must know that their speed is faster than that of the killer whales.

Next, I hand these little guys over to you and hope you can operate them carefully. "

Brian said seriously, and then took out several fish-like but not fish-like things from the large equipment box on the side.

Each unit has a controller and signal receiver, and there is a medium-sized LCD screen on the signal receiver.

It looks like it's both high-tech and crude.

Then he took out something from a box that looked extremely familiar to Wang Anan.

"This is a drone to facilitate our aerial photography. I will install the camera, but I can't leave this to you. I have to find someone who is familiar with it to operate it, otherwise it will easily crash.

Brooke, it's up to you! "

Brian patted a white man with blond hair.

"Do not worry!"

Before seeing DJI's drones, Wang Anan really didn't expect that the drones carried by these professional photographers were actually made in China.

It’s because I underestimated my own domestic brand!

Inexplicable pride radiates from the inside out!

Thinking of the drone he asked 996 to store in the space, Wang Anan had the urge to take it out and fly it.

But looking at the bionic photography equipment in my hand, I still controlled myself!

Turn on the switch of the fake fish in your hand, connect it to the signal of the controller, and slowly put it into the sea.

The speed of this fake fish is really not slow. With a "swish", the tail of the fish is no longer visible.

Controlling the remote control in his hand, he slowed down the fake fish and slowly approached the whale.

Killer whales are never stupid, they even have very high IQs!

Although I didn't pay much attention to the "fish" swimming around me at first, as the number of back and forth increased, it may be that there were too many "fish". Before the mother orca made any sign of action, the baby orca had already pressed the button. I can't bear it anymore.

Although the esophagus of killer whales is not large, they eat a variety of foods, including fish, other whales, pinnipeds, sea otters, birds, reptiles and cephalopods.

But under normal circumstances, they will not eat randomly, but they will still play.

In this way, the baby killer whale began to "tease" these fake fish.

The specific manifestation is that the fish that was swimming normally was thrown into the head by the baby killer whale that suddenly stabbed it horizontally!

Hey~ Although I don’t know who you are, we are just playing~

Good guy, it’s too late for the fake fish that controls you to dodge quickly.

The fake fish can only give itself a line of sight in one direction, which means that it cannot be completely avoided by one fish alone.

"Come on, come on! Everyone who controls the camera, we need to cooperate!"

Yes, different fish, different perspectives, so as to avoid the "attack" of the baby killer whales as much as possible.

"At my point..."

"I'm coming!"

"Hide!"

"Walk around..."

After a period of chaos, although two fake fish were knocked over by the baby killer whale, most of the losses were avoided.

It can’t be said that it was achieved entirely through everyone’s efforts.

In Wang's eyes, it was more because of the baby killer whale. It probably got tired of playing and gave up the chasing and collision game, so that everyone's equipment could be saved.

There were losses on this side, and there were some minor setbacks on the drone side.

Even if the weather is good at sea, the wind will still be stronger than on land.

So the propellers of the drone were changed again, and none of the four propellers escaped.

Sure enough, any equipment must be carefully used in front of nature, otherwise you don’t know how it will be beaten!

After Wang Anan and the others experienced a battle of wits and courage with the baby killer whale, the people who controlled the fake fish also became familiar with them.

Finally, when the drone piloted by Brooke landed steadily, everyone cheered for a while! He pulled Brooke aside, exported the video, and gathered around to watch.

Typical throw away after use!
