India has always been a magical country, and the indian way of doing things has always amazed us. In recent days, India's mother river Ganges has been exposed to the flooding of local turtles, the number of up to 5 million, but the locals dare not eat, is it not open to the Indians? As we all know, turtle is a delicious taste, nutritional value is very rich in a kind of mountain delicacies, of which our folk take him to stew soup is a superb dish, generally only high-end feast can taste.
But why does no one dare to eat turtles in India? And as many as 5 million, what a terrible statistic. So why don't Indians dare to eat turtles? Don't they think turtles are delicious? In fact, in response to this problem, we first need to understand some knowledge of the Ganges Indo. India's Ganges River can be described as the mother river of Indians, somewhat similar to our Yangtze River and the Yellow River, nourishing tens of millions of people, Indians have a very deep affection for the Ganges.
Their admiration for the Ganges is absolutely unimaginable to us, there are many people in India in order to be buried in the Ganges after death, they do not hesitate to hike thousands of miles to the Ganges River to wait for death to come, and Indians living on the Ganges River will always choose to bury the Ganges in the face of death. Water burial of the Ganges is a very noble way of dying, and generally only local nobles have the right to be buried in the Ganges.
To us outsiders, the Ganges is nothing more than an ordinary river, and in the eyes of Indians it is a sacred place. Turtles living in the Ganges are commonly known as ganga turtles, ganga turtles and mainland edible turtles have a certain difference, the appearance is mainly the difference in size, the size of the Ganges turtle is up to 1 meter, and our domestic suffocation is at most 20 centimeters is very large.
So in terms of size, the Ganges turtle is a super giant, why is the Ganges turtle so big? In fact, this is also due to the rich nutrition of the Ganges water, for example, after the body is decomposed in the Yokogawa, almost all the nutrients are absorbed by the organisms in the river, which may be one of the reasons why the growth rate of the Ganges turtle is so large.
In addition, because of the Indian reverence for the Ganges, so that the aquatic creatures produced by the Ganges have been revered by the Indians, so that the Indians will never take the Ganges turtle as an ingredient, of which there are earlier examples, the Indians do not eat catfish in the Ganges, so that in the early years the Catfish in the Ganges flooded, and now after the catfish, the Ganges turtle is also flooded. The Ganges turtle inherited some of the characteristics of turtles, with a long lifespan and strong fertility, so in just a few years the Ganges turtle flooded in the Ganges, and now it is estimated that there are about 5 million Ganges turtles.
In addition to these, the level of pollution of the Ganges in India is also incredible, the Ganges is not only a place to discharge human sewage, but also a good place to discharge industrial wastewater, such as industrial wastewater in India, the vast majority of which is discharged into the Ganges. So that the filth of the Ganges river is indescribable, and the food produced in such an environment, I don't think indians dare to eat it, even we dare not eat it. Even if these turtles are delicious, thinking about the dirtiness of the Ganges, I think no one has an appetite anymore.
But the Indians were clever this time, they decided to sell us these millions of turtles directly, they saw that the turtle market in the mainland is so big, they thought of a good idea to solve the turtle flood, and can make money, then can their idea really be realized? I believe that many people know that we are not fools, and we will certainly not accept it.
As we all know, most of our domestic turtles are artificial feed farming, at least the health aspects are still checked, and India's turtles are so big, the Ganges water is so dirty, even if it is a white gift, everyone dares to eat it. Do you dare to do it, foodies?
As early as a few years ago, this Indian Ganges turtle was banned from importing to the mainland, first, to prevent the invasion of this alien species, and second, because the water of the Indo-Ganges is too dirty and there is no market. However, there are still some lawbreakers who send these turtles to the mainland through some illegal channels, and I hope that everyone must carefully identify them when eating turtles.
