Oriental Morning Post reported on April 29th. The skin of the finless porpoise has turned black due to long exposure to the water.
Yesterday, a 1.82-meter-long rare giant finless porpoise was found on Chongming Island in this city (Shanghai). After some local fishermen seized it, they originally planned to transport it back home as a delicacy, but the border police found it in time and stopped it.
Almost got on the table.
"I have never seen such a big finless porpoise." Zhao, a fisherman in Chongming Island, said that at 8 o’clock yesterday, when Zhao was fishing in the sea, he suddenly found a black mysterious object on the beach outside the port of Baozhen Port. Curious, he quickly paddled the boat to get a closer look. "I was really happy. If this big fish is eaten at home, it will not be finished in a few months! " Zhao quickly called all the fishermen on board to prepare to move fish.
"It feels too bad."
Just as Zhao commanded four strong fishermen to hold big fish together and laboriously carry them to the embankment, they were discovered by the police of Baozhen Port Border Police Station of Shanghai Public Security Frontier Detachment who was patrolling the area. When the policemen looked forward, they were suddenly taken aback: this strange black fish in the hands of fishermen is not an ordinary big fish, but a national second-class protected animal finless porpoise!
"At that time, my first feeling was what a pity! Such a big finless porpoise is rare in China, not to mention in Shanghai! You see, this finless porpoise is almost as tall as me when it stands up. " Shen Bo, a police officer who is nearly 1.9 meters tall, said this.
nowThere are only a thousand left.
"This finless porpoise is 12 centimeters longer than the recorded data, which is extremely rare." Chongming fishery experts told the Morning Post reporter that the finless porpoise, also known as the porpoise, is a second-class protected animal in China and has been listed in the Red Book of Endangered Species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. At present, there are only about 1100 heads left, which has been rarely seen. According to the records of this city, the maximum length of finless porpoise is 1.7 meters, and the maximum weight is 78.5 kilograms.
At present, the dead finless porpoise has been handed over to the relevant departments for safekeeping. (Li Bin Pan Chendong Rocky Jo)
