Mao Weilong knew that Qin Shiou was also interested in running a farm, so when packing up his things, he said, "Tomorrow we will attend the Farmers Seminar in Jade Town? You can get more contact with this industry and learn more about things."

Qin Shiou doesn't care. Anyway, he has nothing else to do except attend a fishing master tour.

Unfortunately, the plan was not as fast as the change. He had to rush back the next morning, and a phone call came to his home: "The leatherback turtle spawned in the fishing ground!"

Leatherback turtles have little effect on fishing grounds and are not of high economic value, but they are very important for marine biological chains. They are one of the few species that can restrain jellyfish from breeding wildly, and they are also children of the sea.

Qin Shiou protected the leatherback turtle purely from a public welfare perspective. Later, after he had the ambition to become a sea god, he felt the importance of this behavior.

Fishermen all know his love for leatherback turtles, so they will report it to him immediately as long as there is any problem with leatherback turtles. The matter of laying eggs is naturally the top priority, because Qin Shiou once said that leatherback turtles do not seem to like laying eggs in fishery grounds.

When Qin Shiou learned that the leatherback turtle had finally laid eggs in the fishing ground, he was overjoyed and immediately decided to rush back to take a look.

Last year, Qin Shiou tied the turtle within the fishing ground, but these guys actually stopped laying eggs.

This is understandable that natural species can quickly develop stress changes in protecting themselves. For example, the teeth of African elephants often cause death to them, so the teeth of baby elephants will not grow very long now.

For example, the fur of antelope has always been a treasure in international fur trading. For this reason, the antelope was massacred. Later, the fur of the antelope began to become rougher and rougher. They used this method to protect themselves.

Qin Shiou speculated at the time that the leatherback turtle might have found that it could not leave the fishing ground. In order to protect its offspring from enslavement, he refused to mate and did not give birth to offspring in the fishing ground.

Now, leatherback turtles are finally willing to give birth to offspring in the fishing grounds. What does this mean? It means that they regard this place as an important survival base, which is a good thing.

The number of leatherback turtles is declining day by day. In the 20th century from the end of the 20th century to the beginning of the 21st century, due to the changes in ocean water temperature caused by El Niño, illegal fishing of fishermen, marine pollution and local tourism development, their number has dropped sharply by about 95%.

Later, although countries placed leatherback turtles in the ranks of protecting animals and protected their survival places, new killers appeared, and people threw plastic bags in the ocean. The leatherback turtles had poor vision and thought they would eat it. As a result, they could not digest it and died of intestinal infarction.

Qin Shiou and Mao Weilong said, and after breakfast, he returned by helicopter.

After returning to the fishing ground, Winnet did not go to work and was waiting for him. When she saw him coming back, she said happily: "It was Shirley and the others discovered it. In the morning, they went to the farm to pick up eggs as usual. As a result, they found that the leatherback turtle went ashore to lay eggs."

Every year, May and June are the main egg-laying season for leatherback turtles. Female needs to climb from the ocean to the beach to dig holes and lay eggs. Egg laying is usually done at night and is very cautious. If there is external interference, they will immediately return to the ocean.

The reason why leatherback turtles in the fishing ground lay eggs in the morning may be that they lived in the fishing ground for a while and felt safer. So they climbed onto the beach in the morning.

Leatherback turtles lay eggs in groups. When a female turtle takes the lead, other female turtles will climb up to the beach and lay eggs in the next few days.

As early as the 1960s, 10,000 leatherback turtles lived in the Lanta Abang area on the east coast of the Malay Peninsula and laid eggs. It was a week.

Qin Shiou had read the relevant information and it was a grand occasion at that time. During that time, the beach turned blue and black, and all female turtles laying eggs on the shore.

Unfortunately, this grand occasion has become a legend. It has now entered the egg-laying season of leatherback turtles. However, according to the Malaysian fishery department, only three leatherback turtles have arrived in the Ta'abon area so far this year, and none of them have laid eggs.

If risk factors are not taken into account, the real golden time for laying is noon, because no matter what eggs are, appropriate temperature is required to hatch.

The beach temperature at noon is just right, not very high but full of calories, and the turtle eggs will remain the highest vitality after being laid into the sand.

On average, a leatherback turtle can lay about 100 eggs during the laying season, but at least one-tenth of them cannot hatch. The reason is that the temperature is not appropriate when laying, which causes the eggs to freeze to death.

After Qin Shiou came back, he went to the beach at the mouth of the sea. It was noon, with the sun shining brightly and the sand temperature was a bit hot, but for the turtle, this was a suitable temperature for laying eggs.

One after another, several female leatherback turtles climbed onto the beach. They were of different sizes, ranging from one meter to two and a half meters long.

In addition to the female turtle, there is also a male turtle that also goes to the beach, that is, Nicholas turtle 4.

The Fourth Master patrolled the beach with its street dance ghost steps. Although he was trembling while walking, he was indeed suitable for being a sentry because his head could keep turning, and he could not avoid his eyes if there was any movement.

There is no doubt that these female turtles went ashore to prepare for laying eggs. They chose the location of egg laying, which was not only conducive to the hatching of eggs, but also were discovered and destroyed by enemies.

Seven or eight female turtles climbed up one after another, and then they divided their troops to find suitable spawning places on the beach.

Seeing that they had not dug the egg hole for a long time, Qin Shiou understood the reason and took Winnie to the grass behind to find some shrubs, and then pulled them out and planted them on the beach at will.

Sure enough, when they found the bush, the female turtles were very happy and climbed over. They first dug holes with their oar-like forelimbs on the beach next to the bush, digging out a large pit, which was about the same size as their body, and then they lie down into the sand pit.

After hiding in the pit, the female turtle's eyes stared at the surroundings nervously, and her hind limbs dig down like iron shovels, and a vertical egg pit was dug under the reproductive hole behind the buttocks.

At this time, the female turtles are about to lay eggs.

There is a characteristic of female turtles laying eggs, that is, they are extra cautious before laying eggs, and immediately return to the sea if there is a slight turmoil. However, once they start laying eggs, they will completely ignore them no matter how strong the stimulation they encounter.

The real turtle master crawled over at some point. He also lived in this place, so he was very familiar with everything.

Lying on the beach, the master first sighed that the sun and the moon were like turtles, and then saw the female turtle laying eggs, and then crawled over and looked at them curiously.

The female turtles stared at the master nervously, but they were still laying eggs. The four Nicholas turtles rushed over with ghost steps and hit the master!

It was as if the Zhiyuan ship hit the Japanese Yoshino ship, the Fourth Master walked forward bravely without hesitation! (To be continued...)
