Chapter 107 Ocean Army! Attack! Destroy Them!(1/3)
Chapter 107 Ocean Army! Attack! Destroy them!
When I heard the name Mosasaurus.
Zhou Weiguo and Gu Pingtao were both stunned.
Let’s talk about this sawfish.
It is understandable that extinct animals regenerate. After all, the ocean is really big, and it is normal for one or two animals to remain undiscovered.
But what about dinosaurs?
Scientists have been looking for it for many years.
But it has never been found.
Moreover, it was confirmed that dinosaurs that did not exist at all, why did they suddenly appear?
Why can't dinosaurs exist anymore?
Let’s not talk about scientists’ conjectures, which is the hypothesis that an asteroid hit the earth, causing a disaster on the earth and the extinction of the dinosaurs.
This is just hypothetical.
No one can take action.
But has anyone ever thought that even without this disaster, the dinosaurs would have become extinct?
Why?
After all, large creatures have too high demands on the environment. For example, whales can only live in the ocean. They can no longer return to land. When stranded, they will even be compressed and suffocated by their own weight.
Although Tyrannosaurus rex was the most successful apex predator in the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, they were very fragile and difficult to withstand the risks of nature!
To put it simply, your large animals can eat too much, but there is not enough food. Once there is a natural or man-made disaster and the food production is reduced, those who eat can be eaten, and those who are left behind will starve.
Think about it, how old are lions and tigers?
But in the grassland, even if there is no hunting by modern humans, the number is not large, right?
Such a big dinosaur?
Where can I find so much food?
So in a word, due to the general environment, their body shape is completely unable to adapt to the current environment.
But in fact, dinosaurs did not disappear. Some scientists speculate that today's birds evolved from dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs evolving into birds may sound a bit nonsense.
But there are fossil chains that support this view.
In fact, this evolution had already begun before the extinction of the dinosaurs. The extinction of dinosaurs 65 million years ago can only be approximated in a general sense and does not cover all dinosaur species, just as other large species also became extinct in this disaster.
, but the environmental requirements are relatively low and the food requirements are not high, small species can survive, so the miniaturized anima dinosaurs survived and gradually developed into modern birds!
"Oh my God! It's the Mosasaurus!"
"It's the Mosasaurus!"
"this"
"This is crazy!"
After Lu Changfeng observed it carefully.
No more doubts.
Although.
In terms of skin color, it may be different from the research data.
But the general body shape and appearance are very similar.
In this age of dinosaurs, the overlord-level creatures in the ocean are very powerful in combat.
"Old Lu, is it possible that it's a pliosaur? It looks like it's a little smaller!"
Professor Qian next to me is also a biologist.
I was shocked at first.
Now I swallowed.
After he felt better, he spoke.
"Slightly smaller? This one"
Lu Changfeng looked at it carefully.
It's indeed a little smaller.
So maybe it's a pliosaur?
In the case of Pliosaurs, it was about 10-12 meters long and weighed about 8 tons. It was unscrupulous in the ocean 150 million years ago, and few other animals could threaten its safety. As an apex predator, Pliosaurs
The dragon is very superb in both combat power and fighting skills. Due to its huge size, it spends a lot of time looking for food to replenish the energy it consumes. It has a ferocious appearance and four huge fins to chase prey underwater more quickly.
As for mosasaurs, the largest of them can reach a maximum length of 21 meters and a weight of about 33 tons. They have almost no natural enemies. When hunting, they will use their cylindrical premaxillary bones to hit and knock them unconscious.
Prey, and it is also a ferocious predator with a wider range of food preferences. As the deadliest killer in the ancient ocean, almost all animals that appear in its sight will become its target. In many cases, it uses its good sense of smell
and hearing for positioning.
"It looks like it's about ten meters long! It does look a bit like the shadow of a pliosaur!"
Judging from the appearance alone, except for the neck, the body structure of Pliosaurus and Mosasaurus are relatively similar, and they have better adaptability to the deep sea environment. Their mouths are almost as long as their heads, and they have multiple rows of sharp teeth when attacking the enemy.
They showed no mercy. During that period of abundant food, they could feed themselves with just a little movement. Occasionally, they would attack land animals drinking water on the shore, which can be said to be very cruel.
"Old Qian, no, it's the Mosasaurus!"
Lu Changfeng looked at it again.
Shaking his head he rejected Lao Qian’s point of view.
"If you look closely, the teeth of the mosasaurus are sharp, conical, and curved like barbs! But the teeth of the pliosaur are not that fierce!"
"Actually, many scientists have also studied which of the two ocean overlords of the dinosaur era, Mosasaurus and Pliosaurus, was more powerful in combat!"
"The results are based on experimental analysis. Whether it is bite force, muscle strength, or body shape, mosasaurs have an advantage!"
"According to analysis, a large mosasaurus is very likely to be able to defeat two medium and large pliosaurs!"
After Lu Changfeng finished speaking.
Professor Qian took a closer look at the long creature.
Naturally, I can see it.
It is indeed the appearance of a mosasaur.
"But here comes the question. The size of mosasaurs is generally around 13 meters to 21 meters. Is this one of about ten meters too small?"
Facing Professor Qian’s problem.
Lu Changfeng thought for a while and said ambiguously: "Maybe this is to adapt to the environment, I don't know!"
"Anyway, this will be a huge earthquake in the biological world. The discovery of the ancient ocean overlord Mosasaurus is actually still alive!"
Zhou Weiguo finished speaking.
soon.
His eyes popped out again.
"Look! Lao Lu! Lao Qian! There seems to be several small things with similar shapes behind the ten-meter-long Mosasaurus?"
Zhou Weiguo said.
Lu Changfeng suddenly zoomed in on the video to watch it.
"That's right! It's a Mosasaurus! It seems to be a cub of Mosasaurus, it's already one or two meters long!"
"Oh my God, I thought that if there was only one species like this, it would definitely not be able to reproduce!"
"But now, all the problems have been solved!"
Several professors were extremely surprised and excited at this moment.
What a historic moment.
They were almost starved of oxygen and fainted from excitement.
Step by step.
Lu Changfeng quickly sorted out the information about the Mosasaurus, as well as pictures of the scene, and posted detailed pictures for those netizens in the live broadcast room who had not yet discovered the Mosasaurus.
But in fact, some sharp-eyed netizens have already discovered this big thing among the fish.
"Family members, look, why is there a big crocodile swimming towards me from the southwest?"
"Big crocodile? What big crocodile?"
"Damn it! What kind of crocodile is this? Isn't it ten meters tall?"
