In the animal world, dolphins are a relatively intelligent animal, and there are also many kinds of dolphins, about 40 kinds, different dolphins, and different hunting techniques. Recently, in Florida, usa, photographer Michael McCarthy photographed a group of bottlenose dolphins clever hunting methods, this group of dolphins deliberately lifted the sediment, forming a mud wall, attracting fish and other prey to come, and then prey.
In the shooting of Michael McCarthy, this group of bottlenose dolphins in the shallow water is constantly swimming, constantly lifting the sediment, these sediment soon formed a mud wall, these mud walls are very chaotic, can not see what is inside, but such mud walls are conducive to attracting small animals such as small fish and shrimp, so that these animals think that there is food, but they can not think of the trap laid by bottlenose dolphins.
When small fish and other prey swim into the mud wall, in the mud wall can not see anything, will be trapped in the mud wall, which is very conducive to the feeding of bottlenose dolphins, because bottlenose dolphins can not only rely on sight to prey, but also rely on sonar to find prey, catch prey, so these chaotic mud walls trap the sight of small fish and shrimp and other animals, but can not block the sight of bottlenose dolphins, and finally let these fish throw themselves into the net, become the food of bottlenose dolphins.
The mud walls of these wontons can not completely trap fish and other animals, when there are predators, these fish will also jump around and escape, some will jump out of the water, want to escape the siege of the mud wall from the water, or swim quickly, but because bottlenose dolphins are group hunting, swimming speed is not slow, so when the fish break into the mud wall, bottlenose dolphins can get enough food.
In the food chain, bottlenose dolphins will not only set traps to wait for prey, but also act collectively, surround prey such as fish in the middle, so that prey can not escape in large quantities, but also prey on some medium and large fish, bottlenose dolphins mainly feed on band fish, mackerel, mullet, sardines and other social fish, but also prey on animals such as squid or crabs.
Among dolphins, bottlenose dolphins are also known as pointed-billed dolphins, bottle-nosed dolphins, etc., because this dolphin has a longer snout, and the mouth is relatively short, and the shape of the mouth crack always seems to be smiling, so it is also one of the most adorable species in the world, ranking eighth in the list of cute animals. Bottlenose dolphin populations are mainly distributed in temperate and tropical oceans, mainly distributed in the Yellow Sea, Bohai Sea and other waters, and have also been included in the list of China's national second-level protected wildlife.
Pay attention to the six dimensions of nature And let nature know nature!
