Chapter 202 201. Manta Ray 2
The fastest male manta ray saw the female manta ray parked under the boat and rushed out first. It seemed that he couldn't wait.

Su Yu lightly touched the female manta ray with his fingers, and then saw the other manta ray hit Su Yun with waves and dived into the seabed instantly.

The male manta ray also followed closely and approached the female manta ray, and the rest of the males dispersed and swam around the mating two manta rays.

Su Yun said, "Everyone, I will take you to see how manta rays mate. This rare scene must not be missed."

After speaking, taking a deep breath, Su Yun jumped into the water directly, and the rope was tied around Su Yun's waist to prevent the hovercraft from drifting away with the waves.

The five manta rays that were watching did not come over after seeing Su Yun. If it were at other times, they would definitely swim to Su Yun to see the creatures on land, but now is not the time.

Su Yun pulled the hovercraft on the water to get close to the manta ray that was fitting together, and saw the male face up, swimming under the body of the female manta ray, waving its wingspan like waves, opening its huge mouth to chase and bite The pectoral fins of the female, while the female manta ray props its wingspan, resting its wingspan, propping up in the water like a parachute, keeping it stationary during mating.

Seeing Su Yun coming, the female manta ray seemed very happy, flicking her tail, drawing white ripples in the water.

The male manta ray was not very happy. He used the two tongue-like fins in front of his mouth to make an oval shape, and opened his mouth wide, trying to drive Su Yun away.

But after being slapped by a female manta ray, he immediately made preparations for mating honestly.

[Suddenly it felt like the male was being cuckolded on the spot? 】

[I feel the same way. I always feel that the female likes Su Yunye. When she sees the threat from the male, she still knows how to protect Su Yun. My girlfriend is full of strength, okay? 】

[Su Yun, what are you doing standing still?Come on, the first love affair with a female manta ray in human history is about to be born! 】

Su Yun rolled his eyes in the water, didn't he know about reproductive isolation?Besides, even without reproductive isolation, he, Su Yun, would not be able to do such nasty things.

The male manta ray is still chasing and biting the pectoral fin of the female manta ray. This is a seductive action before copulation. Soon, the tails of the male and the female are closely connected.

Seeing the mating movements of these two, Su Yun quickly surfaced to take a breath and said scientifically, "Taking advantage of the mating time of the other party, I will tell the other party the male's previous movements."

[Stop talking, I understand, I understand! 】

[Female: Move by yourself, it's awkward. 】

Su Yun's face was dark and angry, he motioned for Chao Guan to silence him quickly, and then said, "I'm not talking about the action of mating now, but the action of biting the female's pectoral fin before mating."

"This action is similar to that of shark courtship. The action of male sharks biting female sharks has the same effect. It bites each other to lure each other to mate with it."

Seeing the temporary young couple still mating, Su Yun said, "The mating time of a manta ray can reach about 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the male manta ray will withdraw and leave."

"However, the female manta ray will stay in place and wait for the next mater. After the next mater is over, the female manta ray will not mate and will leave directly."

"Unlike other fish, manta rays are oviparous, with only 1-2 cubs per litter, and the pregnancy period is often 13 months. Therefore, manta rays love their children very much."

As he said that, Su Yun looked into the distance, and there was also a manta ray dancing in the air and said, "So, there must be a female manta ray giving birth in a certain reef area. If we have a chance, we can wait and see."

After finishing speaking, he took a deep breath, and Su Yun rushed into the water again. The time passed quickly, and the manta ray that was shivering one second went away in the next second. It was a proper scumbag, and the rest of the manta ray rushed towards him in an instant. Female manta rays, after some fighting, one of the male manta rays won the favor of the female.

The other manta rays had no choice but to leave, but one manta ray approached Su Yun, and seemed to be very interested in Su Yun, a human being.

Su Yun gently rubbed the other person's back, and the tight muscles became very smooth when rubbed in the water. Su Yun gently pulled the other person to the surface, and then held the other person up to signal him not to leave.

The wingspan of about 6 meters spread on the water surface, making Su Yun extremely small.

"Everyone, this manta ray looks very close to you. It just so happens that I can introduce him to you in detail."

The manta ray stopped on the surface of the water, allowing Su Yun to touch it, watching the manta ray flapping its wings, seemed very happy.

"Manta rays are internationally recognized as an endangered species."

Reaching out to scrape off the dead skin on the opponent's back, he continued, "The manta rays we have in front of us are also endangered. As a signatory, our country protects and supervises them. Supervision means that no one is allowed to do anything to the manta rays." Rhyming manta rays are bought and sold.”

"Our country has indeed fulfilled its regulatory obligations, and indeed protected the manta rays, but the manta rays near the coast of our country do not take care of them. There are still fishermen fishing, and the country seems to have no plans to take action."

"The manta ray has few natural enemies, and the great white shark is one of them. However, no matter how much the great white shark hunts the manta ray, it is impossible to kill Fufen to the point of extinction. After all, [-] million years ago, the manta ray They live in the ocean, and if they were on the verge of extinction, they would have been extinct by now."

"Therefore, it is still due to human beings, global warming, and marine debris, which have caused the number of manta rays to decrease and reach an endangered state."

"The reason why some people hunt and kill manta rays is because the meat of manta rays is delicious and has nutritional value, and its taste is similar to beef."

"Of course, there are some idiots who say that the gills of manta rays can be used in traditional Chinese medicine. Please don't use the name of traditional Chinese medicine if you want to make money. The gills are like filters and are the dirtiest place. They are dirtier than your toilet. If they can be used in Fart medicine."

[Guangdong likes to eat this stuff, of course ordinary people can't afford it, rich people eat it. 】

[Hey guys, I suggest you use the medicine directly in the toilet. 】

[Endangered animals have not been effectively protected, alas, powerless, another angry day! 】

After a pause, Su Yun said again, "Looking at the figure, the other party is very similar to a carpet, so in the Spanish language family, the other party's name is blanket."

"As filter-feeding animals, their food is usually bony fish, as well as other shellfish and floating algae. They don't eat people, and they don't have much thought about people."

"But rabbits bite people when they are anxious. If they anger the other party, the power contained in the other party's body can kill a human with one slap. There is no doubt about this."

Stretching out his hand to open the opponent's mouth, the huge mouth that can hold half of Su Yun's body is matched with the small and fine teeth in the lower jaw. The parrot jumped on top of Su Yun's head on the side of the boat in amazement.

"Its other alias is called devil ray. As for why it is called this name, it is because when fishermen used to go fishing, the devil ray would stick to the bottom of the boat and slap the bottom of the boat with its wingspan, making a whirring sound. It looks scary, so fishermen who don't know the truth think it's the devil."

During the interval between Su Yun's science popularization, the underwater mating was also completed quickly. Su Yun looked at the male manta ray with disdain and just left after mating. The speed of the manta ray seemed to be a bit fast, and it seemed that it took less than 5 minutes.

Then I saw the female manta ray floating up quickly, pushing the male manta ray aside, and approaching Su Yun.

Su Yun thoughtfully scraped off the parasites and dead skin on the opponent's body, and would use his fingernails to buckle the ones that couldn't be rubbed, it was really warm.

On the other hand, the male manta ray looked at the female manta ray with pity and humility.
