    "What are these big guys doing? Why are they suddenly coming up?" Shaq asked in surprise.

    The ship's rotating propeller slowly slowed down, but the Melon Princess was still moving forward firmly. Compared with the weight and inertia of the ship, the resistance of the sea water was too small.

    The sea monster loudly asked: "Boss, do you want to turn on the hydraulic reverse drive?"

    The ship does not have brakes, but the propeller can run in reverse direction to reverse the ship. This is also a good way to slow down, but ship owners try not to use it as much as possible. This consumes a lot of diesel, especially for a giant ship like the Melon Princess.

    Qin Shiou waved his hand and said: "Slowly turn off the propellers, just don't get hit by the propellers. I don't think these guys are stupid enough to hit our ship from the front."

    Shaq asked again: "I don't understand, why did they suddenly come up?"

    "That's why there are so many ships that hurt whales." Winnie said as she raised her SLR camera and started taking photos. Arctic right whales are very rare.

    Qin Shiou shook his head and said: "No, the whales were injured by the ship, not because they saw the ship and got curious and came to watch, but they were accidentally injured. The reason they were hit was because they underestimated the ship and did not avoid it in time enough."

    The ocean is very vast, but there are many ships, and there are also many kinds of whales. Although it sounds incredible that a ship accidentally injures a whale, the chance of a collision between the two parties is not small, especially the blue whale, which is often injured.

    The reason why whales are accidentally injured is similar to that of birds hitting airplanes. Why do birds hit airplanes?  Because the factor they use to judge danger is distance.  When the plane is flying at high speed, when the birds first discover them, they will feel that this guy is still far away from me and I don't need to worry about it.

    But the jets were too fast. When they realized that this guy was not far away from me, the two sides collided in the next second!

    Why don¡¯t whales avoid ships?  Because they have few natural enemies, are large, and are not slow, they lack the idea of ??'escape' in their consciousness.

    Take these blue whales as an example. They can reach 30 meters in length and weigh more than 200 tons. They can swim in the water at a stable speed of 20 kilometers per hour, and can even reach 50 kilometers per hour in a short time. Such a powerful ability  It is destined that it will not encounter any natural enemies for a long time, so the blue whale responds to threats in a unique way.

    Blue whales also have good eyesight. They can detect ships blocking their way very early, but they have no concept of avoiding them. They think that the ship will change its route after discovering them. Even sharks do the same.

    Until the ship approaches, they realize that the guy on the sea is bigger than themselves. When they need to avoid it, it is too late, because their habitual avoidance action is not to swim away, but to dive underground.

    However, the diving speed of whales is very slow, averaging half a meter per second, so the same accident as a bird hitting a plane occurs - it is difficult to avoid the ship when it comes in front of it.

    Qin Shiou was a good teacher and told Wei Ni once, but Wei Ni didn't listen at all and kept taking photos, even ignoring the stroller.

    There was no other way, Qin Daguan had no choice but to grab his daughter's stroller to take care of the little girl.

    The little girl saw everyone looking outside. She tried her best to poke her head out, but she couldn't stand up, so she still couldn't see anything. She could only call her dad anxiously inside.

    Ships operating at sea are dangerous. A big wave might hit the ship at any time and cause the ship to bump. Therefore, Qin Shiou did not allow the little girl to leave the stroller unless it was absolutely safe.

    These Arctic right whales are large, with adults ranging from 15 to 18 meters, and older whales can grow to 21 meters.  Their backs are very wide, which is why they get their name. If a group of right whales makes waves around the Princess, even though the ship is a giant, it will still be affected.

    Right whales are one of the overlords in the North Atlantic because of their large size, and because their home is in the Arctic, these guys have very thick layers of fat and are very tolerant of pain. Hitting fishing boats from the side is very harmful to them.  It's like scratching an itch.

    Fortunately, this kind of whale has a very docile temperament and is a voracious animal. It will not actively attack large animals and plants, but this is enough to scare the fishermen.

    After swimming to the side of the Melon Princess, these whales performed a difficult move, which was to stand up vertically in the sea water, with half of their heads exposed above the water.

    This happened one after another, and several large whales exposed their half-drawn heads. Then, their heads slowly rotated. After a circle, two returned to the sea, and the rest stopped rotating.  He is looking at his face with concentration.??'s ship.

    Winnie was amused by the silly movements of the right whales. She asked: "Hey, what are they doing? Are they performing something? Come on, Shake, go to the cabin and pull out some herring segments. I want it."  Feed them."

    Qin Shiou scared her and said, "Don't mess around. This is called peeping. It is a way for whales to observe their surroundings and opponents. It's like a lion hiding in the grass to watch food. In fact, they were just observing us to see what we can do."  can not eat!"

    Wei Ni didn¡¯t manage the fishery very well and didn¡¯t know much about things on the sea. After hearing Qin Shiou¡¯s words, she took Qin Shiou¡¯s words seriously and subconsciously said, ¡°Do whales still eat people?¡±

    Shaq laughed and said: "No, the whale's food does not include food above the water surface. Their purpose of doing this is to ensure the safety of the water surface environment, so that they can come up for air. In addition, they sometimes stop by to see if there is anything new and interesting.  things and then share and communicate them back to partners.¡±

    After finishing speaking, he added: "Right whales are very smart, and they also make many kinds of calls."

    Peeping is a way for whales to observe the environment. Many whales can do it, but the best ones are killer whales, which are the legendary orcas, the gods of ocean war.  But the killer whales are really looking for food when they are peeping. They will check if there are seals, sea lions, walruses and the like on the small islands in the sea. These are all delicious food.

    Shaq waved, the crane started, and a large box of fish pieces was fished up. This was used as bait to catch king crabs and marine fish in the North Atlantic.

    The box was dumped at sea, and countless fish pieces were thrown into the water. The right whales were frightened and sank into the water. After a while, their figures appeared on the sea again, swimming slowly to fight for these fish pieces.

    The herring chunks in the fishing ground are the best bait for the best big fish. They contain Poseidon energy and are very attractive to them.

    The right whales probably have never eaten such delicious food in their lives. Seven big fish surrounded them. Even the small whales were fighting for it, opening their mouths wide and sucking water into their mouths.

    After enjoying the meal, a right whale suddenly poked its head out. It first opened its mouth and let out a dull cry of "moo", and then spewed out two torrents from the blowhole on its head!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
