Chapter 446 Dolphin Kills the Sneak Attacker
The big ship slowly moved in the direction ahead. Such a huge school of sardines would definitely be caught at a higher density than usual with a trawl net.
Liang Ziqiang waited for the dolphins to continue driving and then expelled some of the sardines into the range of the three trawlers.
However, as we got closer, we found that the school of fish did not shift towards this side, but was gradually compressing towards the center.
On one side of the school were dolphins, but on the other side, dozens of sharks appeared out of nowhere.
The sharks and dolphins each occupied half of the circle, together forming a circle.
"Holy crap, are dolphins and sharks working together?!"
Lu Zheng and You Lijun were stunned and said "Fuck!" From their tone, it seemed that they found it difficult to accept what was happening before their eyes.
"You read it right. Dolphins and sharks are working together to hunt down a school of sardines!" Liang Ziqiang affirmed.
First of all, dolphins are intelligent animals that are good at fighting in groups and coordinating. It is common for them to divide the work and cooperate when foraging.
When they find a large group of food, they will make a "ka ka" sound to call their friends, and other dolphins will come from all directions after receiving the notification. As more and more dolphins gather, they will divide into several groups and keep changing shifts to eat a buffet. At the same time, they will bring young dolphins to watch and learn to hunt.
Secondly, when there are too many prey to surround, dolphins will cooperate with sharks to hunt together. This has happened before.
It was obvious that the dolphins had encountered a particularly shocking sardine storm, so they reached a temporary agreement with the great blue sharks and hammerhead sharks that arrived quickly and started to cooperate with each other!
"What cute dolphins!" Xiaoyue leaned against the iron railing, staring at the large group of dolphins floating densely on the water, fascinated.
Fangfang, who was standing by, said in extreme disappointment:
"How can they cooperate with sharks!"
It sounded as if the whole group of dolphins had collectively let her down.
Perhaps she had heard and seen many stories about dolphins in the news, and thought it was unscientific for such kind and cute animals as dolphins to hook up with notorious sharks.
Liang Ziqiang still remembered that Fangfang buried the ghost-head knife in tears on the beach of Fox Bay Island more than two years ago. So it was not surprising to hear her say these words now.
"Dad, drive over from the side. With such a big sardine storm, some will leak out. We can catch a lot of fish if we pick up the leaks!"
Liang Ziqiang had no time to express his disappointment with the dolphin, and immediately shouted to his father in the cockpit.
The Ziqiang was a few meters away, passing by the edge of the encirclement of dolphins and sharks.
Sometimes they would drive forward, sometimes they would turn around and drive back, going back and forth to pick up leaks.
While the trawling operation was being carried out at a moderate pace, Lu Feng and the other three were touring around the hunting site, which was quite satisfying.
"What are you doing? Those are two sharks. They are playing dirty tricks and attacking our friendly forces!"
Lu Zheng suddenly pointed at a spot on the sea and shouted.
Liang Ziqiang also saw it. There were two hammerhead sharks, pretending to be hunting a school of sardines, and suddenly turned their heads and opened their mouths to bite the small dolphin next to them!
Although there were a lot of sardines, perhaps in the eyes of these two guys, they were not as happy as the little dolphins! Facing the large group of dolphins, they did not dare to attack, but the small dolphins were easy to deal with. They obviously planned to slip away immediately after eating them.
"I said we shouldn't cooperate with sharks!" Fangfang immediately realized her foresight.
"Can a dolphin beat a shark? How can you tolerate having your cub eaten? I really want to see them fight and see who can win!"
Lu Zheng's face was full of hope, hoping that the group of dolphins and the group of sharks could turn friendly relations into hostility and start fighting in the blink of an eye.
He even moved the benches and planned to sit down and watch the show, with an expression as if he was enjoying the fun.
There was a lot of chatter on the boat, and things were really changing in the sea.
The big dolphins were obviously not blind. The despicable behavior of the hammerhead shark was seen by several dolphins. Relying on the large forces on their side, two or three dolphins became angry instantly and rushed towards the hammerhead shark.
The hammerhead shark has a hammer-like thing on its head, which looks quite funny, but it is very good at escaping for its life.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the two hammerhead sharks quickly left the battlefield and fled away.
But more dolphins began to show their support and followed suit. In terms of speed, dolphins and hammerhead sharks are not slow, but at the moment, the dolphins are clearly in the majority.
"Oh my god, they're almost catching up. How are dolphins going to deal with sharks? Bite them directly? Or whip them with their tails?"
You Lijun was already guessing the dolphin's next move.
However, it seemed that every one of his plans failed.
A dolphin approaches a hammerhead shark without opening its mouth and lunging forward.
At this moment, its entire smooth and pleasing body suddenly left the water, like an object launched from the sea.
Upwards and upwards again, leaping away from the sea and into the sky.
It rose to a height of seven meters in the air. Even Liang Ziqiang and the others standing on the boat raised their chins unconsciously and looked upwards slightly.
"Wow! So pretty, so pretty, to be able to jump so high!"
Fangfang's expression at this moment already seemed to indicate that the trip was worthwhile.
Although she wanted to come to the deep sea to see killer whales this time, now there is no sight of killer whales, but she saw dolphins performing aerial stunts between the sea and the sky, which is also a big surprise.
"That hammerhead shark is dead!"
Li Liang and Zhou Hui spoke loudly as if they were sentencing someone to death. People's focus is so different. Even if they are on the same boat, the same scene is unfolding before their eyes.
Liang Ziqiang understood that what Li Liang and Zhou Hui said was of course right.
When the dolphin reached the highest point in the air, it did a beautiful spin and somersault.
Turn around and dive downwards rapidly towards the sea.
The iron cone-like beak is at the bottom, piercing the water surface like a weapon.
The deep blue sea spread out into the sky and turned into white light.
In the white light, there was a flash of blood. It was obvious that the attack had hit the target.
Not only was the hammerhead shark's flesh pierced, but probably even its bones were broken.
Sharks belong to the class Chondrichthyes, and their skeletons are made of cartilage and connective tissue, which are quite elastic and tough, but much less dense and hard than real bones. Sharks also have no ribs, and their lower sides and abdomen are weak spots.
It would be strange if the bones were not broken after this dive-like impact.
Sure enough, the hammerhead shark's fleeing body stopped, and more dolphins immediately surrounded it and bit it.
The hammerhead shark's fate was sealed.
It's not that the hammerhead shark's attack power is weak. On the contrary, if it fights alone, even an adult dolphin may be defeated by a hammerhead shark.
But this time, it was obvious that the more than one hundred dolphins were more powerful. Although there were also many sharks, the other sharks chose to stand by and watch, and did not come to help at all.
A hammerhead shark was trying to eat a baby dolphin and it probably didn't even have time to taste it before it was killed.
The other hammerhead shark was fast enough to escape during the chaos.
“Dolphins don’t seem that cute!”
After witnessing the bloody scene, Fangfang now began to feel that dolphins are actually quite ferocious.
"To protect your cub, you have to be ruthless, right?" Lu Feng said with a smile.
Of course, whether it was cute or not was not that important to Liang Ziqiang. He continued to use the trawl net to drag the sardines that were escaping towards him.
After a while, the dolphins and sharks also followed a large part of the sardines to other places. Liang Ziqiang continued to drag the remaining sardines as if he was cleaning a battlefield.
"The hammerhead shark that was killed by the dolphin, its fins are probably worth some money, aren't they? Why don't you take them?" Lu Feng asked.
"As long as there is a shark that is killed, we will definitely fish it out!"
As Liang Ziqiang was speaking, his father had already headed towards the floating hammerhead shark.
Picking up shark fins is a routine operation for Liang Ziqiang.
When the fish is almost finished, start to raise the net.
When the net was being pulled up, Lu Feng and his friends gathered around the deck where the fish were being sorted to watch.
Countless sardines poured out of the nets like another storm.
Liang Ziqiang looked around and realized that it was not in vain that he had encountered such a huge school of sardines. The number of sardines in the net before him was two or three times the usual number...
