All 3,000 catties of fish were eaten up, a "water monster" appeared in a fish pond in Heilongjiang, and the villagers had no choice but to take it
On September 18, a villager who lives in Shuangjing Village, Heilongjiang Province, found that the fish in his fish pond suddenly became less and less. Only a few small fry remain. At the same time, during the observation, the villager also found that there seemed to be a "black shadow" in the fish pond, which also made him afraid, because the villagers had previously said rumors of "water monsters", and he was worried that in his fish pond, Could it have also been put in the alligator gar? Or some other horrible animal? Therefore, in order to find out the truth, the villager decided to drain all the water in the fish pond. However, just when the fish pond was about to bottom out, the villager was shocked by the scene in front of him. What did you see? What kind of creature is it that can eat three or four thousand catties of fish? Pay attention to the messenger of the singularity and get the latest scientific information. After the villagers drained the water, they unexpectedly saw a large python that weighed hundreds of kilograms, and climbed along the dam of the fish pond into the grass beside it. Obviously, it was the "culprit" who had eaten up thousands of kilograms of fish. Seeing such a scene, the villager was also taken aback, and hurriedly ran to call for someone. In the end, the villagers worked together to catch the fish. A large python was finally caught, because they were worried that the python is a national protected animal, so the villagers did not dare to act rashly, but contacted the local forestry department, hoping to send experts to come to identify it. As a result, it was confirmed that this big python turned out to be an alien species "red-tailed boa". This kind of python looks big, but it is not poisonous. Of course, its main disadvantage is "too gluttonous", which can also be Explain that the villager put several thousand catties of fish into the pond, and was eaten by this guy within a few days. However, this is not the most curious thing. The next thing is even more puzzling. After the incident spread on the Internet, it immediately aroused heated discussions among netizens. Many netizens were curious that the hometown of the red-tailed boa was obviously In America, how did it cross the ocean and come to this small village in Heilongjiang? America's "water monster" appeared in a village in Heilongjiang. Thousands of catties of fish were eaten up. How did it get here?
Before answering this question, let's take a look at the unknown secrets of red-tailed anacondas. In fact, red-tailed anacondas are also known as American pythons. They are very adaptable to the environment, and their temperament is very docile. , Therefore, internationally, the red-tailed anaconda is one of the most popular crawling pets. Therefore, the red-tailed anaconda discovered in Heilongjiang this time is likely to be purchased from overseas, because it cannot be taken care of in the later stage. Finally released it here. Some friends may say that pythons generally live on land. Why do red-tailed boas found in Heilongjiang like to eat fish? This is because red-tailed anacondas live on land, but they are master swimmers of snakes. When food on land is in short supply, they will enter the water to fish and eat. There are several thousand catties of fish in the fish ponds in the villagers' homes. For it, it is a "paradise for buffets". Therefore, it usually hides in the grass beside the fish pond. When it is hungry, it will go into the water and steal it. fish to eat. It's just because it is too greedy, and it doesn't know how to spread out the "criminal" locations. It only picks one fish pond for a "buffet" and eats up all the villagers' fish. In the end, it was discovered by people. Speaking of which, this is not the first time a red-tailed boa constrictor has been discovered in the wild in my country. In December 2019, a large python over 2 meters long appeared on a construction site in Xuancheng, Anhui Province. At that time, some workers looked at it pitifully. , and also specially bought an incubator for it, put it in it, thinking about raising it as a pet. However, because the workers on the side were worried that this would be a protected animal, in the end, the worker who picked it up contacted the local police station. After identification, the large python was a red-tailed boa, and it was likely stolen from the owner's house. ran out. Because my country does not allow the sale and breeding of red-tailed anacondas, the red-tailed anaconda was finally sent to a zoo in Hefei, where it officially settled down. Seeing this, I believe everyone is curious, what will be the consequences if individuals raise exotic species, including red-tailed boas, without authorization?
First of all, I would like to remind everyone that you should not secretly breed and sell them in order to satisfy your own curiosity. Once this kind of thing is discovered, it needs to be borne according to the seriousness of the situation. legally responsible. This is not an alarmist. Let’s take a look at the case: In September last year, the Daxing Branch of Beijing Forestry Public Security received a report from the public that someone was raising pythons in the community. As a result, during the door-to-door inspection, the police were actually in a small rental house. , found 22 pythons, including 10 red-tailed boas. At first, the suspect also argued that he liked these small animals, so he kept them at home. However, when the police pointed out that individuals were not allowed to keep wild animals, the suspect quickly changed his tune, saying that he was raised and sold, and he did not know that these were wild animals. In the end, the suspect was arrested according to law on suspicion of "illegal acquisition and sale of rare and endangered wild animals". There are many similar situations. In June 2020, after receiving a report, the Suzhou police seized 27 red-tailed anacondas in a man’s home. The snake lover, by the time he was caught, had sold 7 red-tailed anacondas. In this regard, the police said: Whether it is illegally introducing, raising, and selling red-tailed boas, or randomly discarding or releasing red-tailed boas into the natural ecosystem of our country, they will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years according to the seriousness of the circumstances, or Detention and fines. What you may not know is that many exotic species have no natural enemies in our country. Once they enter our ecosystem, they are likely to cause devastating damage. Therefore, before buying a pet, you must find out whether it can be kept or not. , to find out whether it will pose a hazard to our country's ecosystem. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret once a catastrophe occurs. I am the messenger of singularity, follow me, the next issue will be more exciting
