The Fushou snail, which has been flooded in China, has actually begun to disappear in India? , At this time, this Indian brother was eating with relish, dipping in the dipping sauce and eating it in one bite, even the soup was not spared.
Reproduction of Fushou snails
So why did Fushou snails flood in China? There are actually species that Chinese foodies can't eat, but it's no wonder, after all, the Chinese don't have the invulnerable physique of the three brothers of India.
As early as 1981, Fushou snail was introduced to China as an edible snail, Fushou snail because of its strong adaptability and fast reproduction, the size is also larger than the local snail, and soon Fushou snail replaced the field snail.
At this time, Fushou snails are in full swing, and crayfish, lamb skewers are commonly known as the three giants of night snacks, which makes more farmers join the snail industry, and Fushou snails quickly bloom all over the country.
Among them, in order to promote the development of Fushou snail breeding industry, a technical training course for Fushou snail was held in 1985, and at the same time, the country is also advocating breeding, coupled with the publicity of newspaper news, the breeding of Fushou snail suddenly reached its peak.
Until the 90s, the problem of Fushou snails began to emerge slowly, and in some areas, there were incidents of Fushou snails flooding harmful crops, and the flesh of Fushou snails was loose, and it was easy to get old after cooking, which greatly affected the taste.
People began to realize that the prospect of Fushou snail breeding was not great, at this time the breeding of Fushou snail slowly began to cool down, until 2003, the state officially listed Fushou snail as an alien species invasion must not be cultured.
So why is the Fushou snail from everyone to the current situation that everyone is shouting and fighting, first of all, because its reproductive ability is super strong and good to survive, it is widely bred by people.
Fushou snails can lay up to 200 to 1,000 eggs at a time, and the number of eggs a year is as high as 20 to 40 times, and the female snail can reproduce up to more than 300,000 after two generations a year Extremely fecundity, but it is different from ordinary field snails and eats everything.
The rice in the field was eaten by Fushou snails before it had grown well, and a large number of seedlings were destroyed, causing serious damage to the fishery industry.
The food in the water is gnawed up, and it will go ashore to gnaw other plants, and will eat insects and small fish for food, even the corpses of animals are not spared, it is with this ability to eat raw and eat raw, which has caused a serious imbalance in the ecological environment.
Some restaurants use Fushou snails instead of field snails for cheapness, as mentioned earlier, because Fushou snails have loose meat, restaurants for taste, dishes are not even cooked for customers to eat.
So in 2006, in order to be greedy for cheap in a hotel in Beijing, many people were infected with strongyloidiasis in Guangzhou, and hundreds of people were admitted to hospitals due to the consumption of Fushou snails.
The Fushou Luo incident caused a sensation throughout the country, so this major public health incident attracted the attention of all walks of life, so various places came to power to ban it.
However, some black-hearted businesses, ignoring the constraints of the law, took risks for the sake of profit, and in 2017, a pregnant woman ate a snail on the side of the road while traveling, and a tragedy happened.
Soon after, the body began to have problems, first a high fever, then the body began to have pain, skin paresthesias, the whole person was drowsy.
At first, I thought it was just an adverse reaction during pregnancy, but then the situation began to deteriorate, and after arriving at the hospital, I found that I was infected with strongyloidiasis in Guangzhou, and I needed to take injections and medicines during the treatment, and finally the pregnant woman could only terminate the pregnancy.
Studies have shown that Fushou snails are very heterogeneous due to food, and many harmful substances will be eaten by Fushou snails, resulting in a large number of bacteria accumulated in Fushou snails and becoming the host of parasites.
Each Fushou snail carries more than a thousand parasites, even after high temperature disinfection Some parasites will survive, so it is not recommended that everyone eat Fushou snail.
Once you mistakenly eat Fushou snail, you will have a high fever, body stiffness and pain, if this happens, take snail meat before this, be sure to go to the hospital immediately.
Here I will teach you the difference between field snails and Fushou snails, the shell of Fushou snail is yellow, the shell of the field snail is bluish brown, the tail of the Fushou snail is short and flat, and the tail of the field snail is long and pointed.
The meat of Fushou snails is yellow-white, and the field snails are green-brown, so you must not buy the wrong snails when you go to the vegetable market, take a small book and write down the snails you want to use in the future.
So why is Fushou snail so widespread in the mainland, the reason is also because there are no natural enemies, first of all, drug control, although the cost of using pesticides is not high.
But the snail will still stay in the field when it dies, it is easy to cut the foot, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions, then some friends say that the duck can eat a lot of snails, the small snail duck can eat a lot, but the big snail duck can't eat.
So where is the natural enemy of Fushou snail, at the beginning everyone saw the Indian three brothers eating snail meat, which is why Fushou snail began to disappear in India.
That's right, this is one of the natural enemies of Fushou snails, let me take you to see how this brave nation eliminated Fushou snails, early in the morning the second brother wandered by the river and suddenly looked back and saw a bunch of Fushou snails by the river.
Excited hand dancing and running down, directly picked up a few screws and kissed them, at this time he seemed to think of something, and ran back with a cigarette.
After a while, the second brother led the five brothers to the water, and the five-person group thought that they would be able to feast on it immediately, and laughed uncontrollably while touching the snail.
After a long time, the fishing was finished and did not forget to go to the next village to search, after a day of searching The five-person group also successfully filled a large pot, poured the Fushou snail into the pot like dumplings, boiled over high heat, and carried out high-temperature disinfection.
Then put the lid on the pot and wait for the high temperature cooking to finish, taking advantage of the cooking snail, the five-person group was not idle, preparing various dips, the eldest brother took out three sprigs of turmeric that he had treasured for thirty years, and quickly ground into paste, and the washed peppers were also ground into paste.
The others were not idle, preparing all kinds of spices and vegetables chopped, chopping and setting aside, and after a while, the snails were almost cooked, and the fat Fushou snails were brought to the basket one by one by the brothers with spoons.
The capable fourth brother casually broke a thorn at this time, ready to pick out the cooked snail meat, and the five big brothers picked the meat while pulling nonsense, and after a while, a large pot of snail meat was picked out.
Start the pot again, pour sesame oil into the pot, add various spices and side dishes to stir-fry fragrant, put the snail meat into the pot and stir-fry together, I don't know where the fifth brother took out the paste of various colors and poured it into the pot, and finally added black pepper to stir.
Well, this method is very Indian, put the finished snail meat on the rice, a snail meat rice is born, such a snail meat rice in front of the screen do you want to come to one?
Then everyone may want to say when they see this, then let's not eat Fushou snails Chinese, then what can we do, we can't introduce the Indian third brother to eliminate Fushou snails.
The natural enemy of Fushou snail
Don't worry, this has to be said, in addition to humans, what other creatures can destroy the Fushou snail, first of all, we have to mention our Asian pincer-billed stork, which is 30 to 90 cm long, has a wingspan of about one meter and a half, and its plumage is mostly white and gray.
The pincer-billed stork is just like its name, a large water bird with a mouth like pincers, but it is also because of its large mouth So it found that the mouth could not be closed, such a mouth, is simply to pry open the shell of the Fushou snail.
Generally distributed in India and Southeast Asia, the Asian pincer-billed stork almost entered the endangered species list because the pincer-billed stork lost a large degree of habitat, and weeds invaded wetlands, reducing the environment and water sources in wetlands.
The destruction of wetlands by large animals also takes up a lot of wetland resources, and human fishing also reduces the food source of pincer-billed storks, so pincer-billed storks become victims and the population begins to decline.
It was not until 2006 that the Asian pincer-billed stork was first seen in Erhai, Dali, and since then it has been found that the number of pincer-billed storks has increased year by year, and now it has grown to thousands.
In long-term observation, it was found that pincer-billed storks have a huge amount of food, they will prey on river mussel crustaceans and Fushou snails, so they rely on sufficient snails to begin to multiply in large numbers, and it can be said that there are no snails wherever they go, and the number of Fushou snails has decreased significantly.
Scientists also wondered, why did this pincer-billed stork come to China to eat snails, is it better for our Chinese snails? We don't know the answer, but it doesn't matter.
With a pincer-like mouth, the pincer-billed stork has obtained a lot of food and vast habitats in China, and everyone may say that these thousands of pincer-billed storks have dried up the Fushou snail.
After all, the human snail gives birth to hundreds of thousands of snails a year, in fact, in addition to the pincer-billed stork, the snail is also one of the natural enemies of the snail, and the main food source is the Fushou snail.
As an eagle, with pointed claws and a beak as hard as a diamond, the snail is like a king going to play the bronze game, and there is no one who can fight in the vertical and horizontal snail field.
Fushou snails that are one bite at a time, faster than we pick with toothpicks, eating snails is also unceremonious, you can eat a dozen pounds of Fushou snails a day, don't look at people's small snail kites are not as big as you, you in front of the screen you have not yet snail kites can eat it.
As a medium-sized bird of prey, the snail kite is about 50 cm long and widely inhabits the central and southern Americas, but the snail kite is not easy to introduce to China.
There is also the well-known Brazilian turtle is also the natural enemy of the Fushou snail, the Brazilian turtle eats the Fushou snail in a simpler and more rude, directly relying on its strong bite force, directly destroying the shell of the snail, eliminating the Fushou snail is also a sharpshooter.
Everyone knows that the Brazilian turtle is also known as the "strongest invasive species", but don't underestimate this docile looking little turtle turtle, its destructive power is no worse than the Fushou snail, it is really not refused, not picky eater at all.
The third brother of India is called turtle brother when he sees it, and the turtle life is long, seeing this editor really sighed a long time, then everyone may say that the introduction of pincer-billed storks and snail kites will not be better.
Like the pincer-billed stork has developed for so long, only to have the current thousands, relying on the pincer-billed stork to wipe out the Fushou snail at once.
In fact, whether it is like the Asian pincer-billed stork or the American snail kite, but their natural predators are also lacking on the continent, without natural enemies they will reproduce quickly, and they live next to fresh water.
If they reproduce in large quantities, will it cause a large number of wipes out of the mainland's fish and shrimp, this result we do not know, if this is the case, it is better to raise more ducks to control the development of the number of Fushou snails.
In this way, everyone can also eat more duck necks, so a balance of the ecological environment is still very important, and the existing ecological environment must be more protected.
Dear officers, if you have any ideas, you can leave a message in the comment area, and we will see you in the next issue
