The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is a federal agency under the U.S. Department of the Interior that manages fish, wildlife, and natural habitats in a broad area.

Ever since last winter, when the tall sturgeon was accidentally spotted breeding in Lake Rota, the staff of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have set their sights on this amazing ranch.

As one of the largest freshwater fish in North America, the tall sturgeon lives on the Fraser River in Canada and the Saramento River in California, USA.

They used to migrate back from freshwater to saline water to spawn, but now their return route is blocked by dams and habitat changes have led to a sharp decline in the number of sturgeon.

One can imagine the surprise on the faces of the Animal Authority when they found out that they were able to lay eggs in this freshwater lake.

Since February this year, there has been a sign on the edge of the lake, prohibiting people from fishing, let alone discharging sewage from the lake in the past, and no one else lives in the Snow Mountain Ranch.

The penalties for violating the law were extremely severe, and Old Patton had recently switched his fishing spots to the other side of the Mori River.

The sturgeon is happy, and the common fish of Lake Rota, such as carp and pike, are also stained with them.

The people of the Animal Management Bureau did not understand why the sturgeon would come, so they simply banned the downstream and set aside a route for the sturgeon to migrate and reproduce, the carp was no longer hunted by humans, and there were no natural predators, and the population expanded wildly.

The Asian carp in the American population is divided into many species, and generally refers to the collective name of eight kinds of fish, including herring, grass carp, bighead carp, carp, and silver carp, which can eat about half of their own weight in a day.

Therefore, Han Xuan didn't know what the "experts" of the Animal Management Bureau thought about this regulation, and they had to be the descendants of the sturgeon. Are you happy to be eaten by these carp......

Maybe it's because of the hot and humid weather.

In the past, there were occasional red carp in Rota Lake, but there has never been a situation like today, when thousands of red carp gathered on the dockside, and three little raccoons stepped on them directly to catch fish and eat.

Jenny, the big snapping turtle, is estimated to have eaten enough before Han Xuan's arrival. It was lying motionless on the shore, and the muddy water was constantly washing over it, and Jenny seemed to like it.

When the raccoons saw someone coming, they raised their heads to the shore to look, recognized it as Han Xuan, and began to busy picking up their prey again.

Raindrops fell on the surface of the lake, and the splashes of water turned into a white mist.

The baby raccoons didn't move, but the school of red carp under their feet moved, drifting towards the dock. These little guys with dark circles under their eyes, stepping on red clouds under their feet, and with the surrounding water mist, they really look like fairies.

McDull kept stamping his feet, his long ears on his head shaking with his movements, approached the dock, and then stepped back, as if he also wanted to learn from these raccoons to go down to the surface of the lake to feel the feathering and ascending immortals.

As a cat, Fat Ding rarely eats fish. Carp have spines that are uncomfortable to scrape on the throat. It only eats cod, eel and other seafood, and aspires to be a stylish cat.

And now in the face of the temptation of a group of carp, it is also a little uncontrollable, scratching its little short legs and trying to pounce into the lake.

Han Xuan hurriedly held it down, although this thing has a lot of fat, it may not be able to drown. But cats can't swim after all.

Fat Ding screamed anxiously in his mouth, and saw a gold mine but couldn't move it, it was too torturous.

The scales of the carp on the surface of the lake, red with a hint of yellow, are crowded together and jumping and flicking their tails. With two mustaches on the side of his mouth and a round belly, thousands of them gathered on the dockside.

There are some bighead carp and silver carp mixed in, which does not affect the magnificence of this strange landscape in the slightest.

McDull still didn't have the courage to go down in the end.

It looked back at its big belly, then at the raccoons' "thin" bodies, weighed the pros and cons for a long time, and made the right decision.

Han Xuan wanted to go home and get his camera at this time, and since the last photo he took in the Maldives won an unexpected award, he likes to take something very much.

Looking up at the dark clouds in the sky, I felt that the rain would not stop for a while and a half, so I walked back quickly with my big pants in my hand.

Just as he was about to reach the side of the road, a car passed in front of him, not fast, but it was only to blame that there was a lot of water on the ground, and suddenly splashed his face with muddy water.

If someone else is driving, there is a birch tree next to it, and the other party doesn't see anyone, Han Xuan will forget it, but put it on his own pro-Laozi

"How did the coach teach you when you were learning to drive? I said that on a rainy day, when you see pedestrians on the side of the road, you should drive slowly, drive slowly, you see!" Han Xuan pointed to the mud spots on his clothes: "Burberry new model, how to pay?"

Han's father stepped on the brakes the moment he saw his son, and the expression on his face was uncertain at the moment.

He is not afraid of touching porcelain, but splashes this little rabbit cub with water, and it is not good to deal with his wife when he goes home, and he often has heard enough of her complaining because of washing clothes......

Thinking about it, why is it your fault?

Father Han straightened out his clues, and immediately put on a fierce face: "If you don't walk well, why run, I owe my good skills, what if you want others to bump into you?" Go home quickly!"

Han Xuanman didn't care, it would take a few minutes to walk home from here, he was too lazy to run, and pulled the car door: "You send me, I'm going to get the camera." ”

"What are you doing with your camera? It's too dark, the lighting is not good, what is there to shoot. ”

Hearing this, the boy looked at his father from above unexpectedly, but he didn't expect him to understand this.

Father Han read his eyes and said ashamedly: "At that time in college, I was still the vice president of photography!"

"Oh. ”

“……”

Completely different from the expected scene, Han Qianshan hung his head and said, "I'm going to have something, the hot spring has not been working for a few days, and they called just now and said that they had dug up a big one." ”

"Big Hot Springs?"

"Take me home first, and I'll go later. ”

"Just go directly, you don't have to change your clothes, and you'll get dirty when you get there." Seeing that Fat Ding's hair was wet from the rain, Father Han wanted to crawl on him, so he reached out to cover his round face and pushed it away.

"No, there's a school of red carp on the shores of Lake Rota, and I want to photograph them. ”

This place was blocked by the birch forest, and the visibility was low on rainy days, so Han Qianshan drove the starting car to the front.

When he saw the fish on the lake, he said calmly: "Well, you went to school outside so you don't know, since May, you can see it every time it rains." ”

As soon as the words fell, a huge red carp jumped up on the surface of the water not far away, biting the leg of a small raccoon, seeing that it could be more than a meter long, and its whole body was red.

Falling down and making a huge splash, father and son stared blankly until the water surface returned to its original state, and then came back to their senses and looked at each other.

I thought that raccoon's life was in danger.

But after a while, a few meters away, a figure could be seen faintly, riding away on the back of the carp with teeth and claws. (To be continued.) )
