Domestic fish farming occupies a very important role in China's historical and cultural "feng shui", and there are many varieties of fish, common feng shui fish are goldfish, koi, parrot fish, dragon fish and so on. However, with the development of society, the original intention of fish farming enthusiasts has also changed from "feng shui fish" to "ornamental fish", and many strange-looking or strange-looking "fish" have gradually become cute pets at home. And Mexico's iconic creature, the Mexican salamander, has entered everyone's sight.
Commonly known as the "hexagonal dinosaur", the Mexican salamander is between 20-43 cm in length and can easily reproduce in aquariums and tanks in weight, making it quite adorable creature. Pink in appearance, coupled with six cheeks on the sides of the head, look like alien babies in cartoons, they are not only cute in appearance, but also stupid in behavior, even if food falls from the sky, they have to know how to open their mouths 3 seconds late. The cute appearance and cute behavior make the Mexican salamander a favorite aquarium pet of people around the world.
Because the Mexican salamander has an amazing regenerative ability, not only can grow new limbs, but even important organs such as the brain and eyes can also regenerate, the Mexican salamander is the object of study by many researchers, but this extremely valuable and cute creature can not escape the mouth of humans. Wild Mexican salamanders currently exist in only two places in the world, Lake Hodgmirco and Lake Zelgao in central Mexico, but in the local Mexican salamander is one of the wild popular delicacies, habitat has been continuously destroyed, the current Mexican salamander in the wild can live in the area of less than 10 square kilometers, wild Mexican salamander has been listed as a critically endangered species.
However, because the creature is easy to farm, Mexican salamanders can still be seen on the menu in some rare stores to this day. For example, a rare creature restaurant called "Rare Beast House" in Japan is said to be the only restaurant in Japan that sells Mexican salamander food. The restaurant advertises that the Mexican salamanders sold do not eat any growth-promoting hormone drugs and are all farmed edible salamanders, which are usually fried by the owner and cook this rare creature delicacy, which has also become the store's signature dish. However, a food website has also revealed that although the Mexican salamander is tender, it is no different from ordinary white fish meat, and there is no special feature.
As the wetlands gradually disappear, the number of wild Mexican salamanders counted by scientists in 2015 is less than 35 per square kilometer, which has also affected the number of Mexican salamanders cultivated in aquariums and laboratories, hoping that humans can restrain their selfish desires and let such cute creatures not disappear on the earth.
