My Deep-sea Fishery

The fifth and sixth floors are still under renovation, and there is no store or booth currently open.

After Xiang Yang walked around the entire Binhai Department Store, he found that the current entire Binhai Department Store is just an empty shell, and there is still a long way to go before it can truly enter a profitable state.

"Brother Yang, do you want to eat KFC?" Xiang Hui asked Xiang Yang.

"I don't want to eat anymore, I want to go for a walk on the beach." Xiang Yang had a slightly sad face, the development of tourism industry was much more difficult than Xiang Yang imagined.

In the past, Xiang Yang thought that as long as he had enough funds, it would be a matter of minutes to build a tourist area.

But now Xiang Yang finds that it is very difficult to really develop the tourism industry.

Soon, the three of them left Binhai Department Store, walked along the beach, and continued to walk in the direction opposite to Yanlong Village.

Few people have visited this section of the road, and the beach is full of various intact or damaged shells.

"Brother Yang, are you going to see the cruise ship? It's not close to here. Do you want me to go back and ride a bike?" Xiang Hui said.

Xiang Yang shook his head, he didn't go to the yacht, he just wanted to walk here.

Xiang Yang remembered that when he was here before, manatees occasionally swam here.

For ordinary fishermen, the manatee is still a bit scary, whether it is its huge body or its loud voice, it will make people feel intimidated, so as time goes by, no one comes here at all.

"Hey, Brother Yang, look at that, doesn't it look like a spider?" Zuo Fatty asked suddenly, pointing in one direction.

The reason why Fatty Zuo said that it looks like a spider is because the creature is really too big. Although it looks like a spider, it is a big black mass, which makes people feel uncomfortable looking at it. be terrified.

Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows and said with certainty, "This is a hermit crab."

"What the hell? Hermit crabs? This is impossible, there are such big hermit crabs there." Xiang Hui was the first to question.

Xiang Hui has seen hermit crabs more than once or twice. He knows very well that hermit crabs are the kind of strange crabs that are not as big as a palm and will fall out of the crab shell when you hit them with a wooden stick. .

Xiang Yang shook his head and said, "This is indeed a hermit crab. At the same time, it is also the largest type of hermit crab. It can grow up to one meter long. It is not only the largest terrestrial crab, but also the largest terrestrial crab. Arthropods are huge and can weigh up to nearly 20 kilograms, and this one is only slightly bigger than a football, which is considered very small among this type of hermit crab."

This kind of hermit crab has a hard shell and two strong and powerful claws. It is a master tree climber, especially good at climbing straight coconut trees, because they can peel off the hard coconut shell with their strong claws to eat the inside. Coconut pulp, so some people call it coconut crab.

Xiang Yang told Xiang Hui: "The body and appendages of this hermit crab are very hard and thick. The carapace and legs have wavy wrinkles on the surface. The gill area of ​​the carapace is particularly enlarged, the forehead is triangular, and the eye scales are small. The left claw is generally larger than the right claw, and the other parts of the body are symmetrical on both sides, because it does not need to live in the shell that restrains the growth of the body. This hermit crab has a large appearance when it is an adult, and it is the largest on land. Arthropods."

The eyes of this hermit crab are red, and the body color is related to the external environment in which it lives, ranging from purple-blue to orange-red, and even black humans have found it.

Studies have shown that male coconut crabs are much larger than female coconut crabs.

The larvae of this hermit crab called coconut crab are very similar to other terrestrial hermit crabs in the early stage of reproduction. When they grow from megalopa to juvenile crabs, they also carry a shell on their backs, protecting their abdomen in it, until the abdomen develops and the carapace hardens. snail shell.

They are a hermit crab that widely grows in tropical oceans, but they are quite different from ordinary hermit crabs.

Generally, hermit crabs live in the spiral shells of gastropods, so their bodies are soft and asymmetrical, but coconut crabs have gotten rid of the shells that bind their bodies. They look for or dig caves, so they grow big and strong, except that the crab claws that prey on them are one big and one small, and the body structure is symmetrical.

"Strange." Xiang Yang stared at the coconut crab and frowned.

"What's so strange?" Fatty Zuo asked rather puzzled.

Xiang Yang shook his head and said: "Coconut crabs usually like to live in tropical forests near the seaside. They are very good at climbing trees. They can climb to the tops of coconut trees, palm trees, castanopsis trees and other trees, and they can reach ten feet above the ground. Eight meters, this place is not tropical, and there are no coconut trees, how can there be a coconut crab on the beach."

The coconut crab is an animal that originated from the ocean. Like other animals that originally lived in the sea and later migrated to land, they must face the problems of breathing and water loss.

Therefore, there are many blood vessels clustered on the inner wall of the gill cavity of the coconut crab, which can help breathing. It also has a carapaceous shell, which can inhabit high humidity and has shelters and holes that can block the sun.

The most important thing is that coconut crabs hate sunlight very much. During the day, they usually dig holes in soft soil, hide in the holes to hide from the sun, and only come out to look for food at night.

"Why, this kind of crab can't live without coconut trees, or if it's not in the tropics?" Xiang Hui asked.

Xiang Yang shook his head, "That's not true. As long as there is sufficient food, it can live on land for a long time, and return to the ocean to lay eggs in the breeding season."

"That's all. Since it can live in our place, it's not surprising that it appears in our place." Fang Youqun said carelessly.

When Xiang Yang heard this, he suddenly burst into laughter.

But if you think about it carefully, isn't that exactly the case?

Coconut crab doesn't only live on coconut trees, it just likes to live on coconut trees.

"Let's go, let's catch it. A coconut crab of this size is enough for the three of us to have a meal." Xiang Yang rolled up his sleeves and said.

Fatty Zuo hesitated, he pulled Xiang Yang and said, "Brother Yang, this crab looks so ugly, can I eat it?"

Just as Xiang Yang was about to explain, Xiang Hui rolled up his sleeves and strode towards the coconut crab, "If you don't eat it, I will eat it with my brother."

When Xiang Yang saw that Xiang Hui had gone, he was not in a hurry to go. Xiang Hui also grew up touching crabs by the sea, and dealing with a coconut crab was easy.

"In the whole crab family, except for some poisonous crabs, all crabs are edible, especially this kind of coconut crab, because it likes to eat coconuts, so its meat quality is very good, it is a kind of taste Very delicious seafood." Xiang Yang said to Fatty Zuo with a smile.
