Basic introduction of Guizhou water monster

Anecdotal anecdotes are constantly coming from the Songyou River in Zhongye Township, Shuicheng County, Liupanshui City, and Zhongzhai Township, Liuzhi Special Zone: there is a giant "water monster" in the river, and a coal ship is overturned by it to the bottom of the river. On June 30, 2008, Fan Sanchuan, deputy mayor of Liupanshui City, led a team to inspect Zhangyou Lake, and an "unknown aquatic creature" about 8 meters long appeared on the lake again. The accompanying cameraman recorded the whole process of 1 minute with the lens. Suiyu River is a tributary of the northern plate of the Pearl River Basin. The water area formed by Laowang Mountain in Mao Kou Township of Liuzhi Special Zone is 5.5 square meters larger than Hongfeng Lake. Because of its complex terrain and large drop, it has the three-dimensional climate characteristics of "one mountain and four seasons, ten miles apart", so it is called Suiyu Lake.

At 2: 30 pm on October 30th, 2008/kloc-0, 165438+, when the research ship was turning around and returning, the water suddenly rolled, and a black shadow turned out from the bottom of the water about 100 meters away, fanning a guy with seven or eight meters long fins, and the clear water suddenly raised huge waves. Wang, an accompanying TV reporter, quickly turned on the camera and recorded the "unknown aquatic life" of 1 minute. Wang Dao: "That guy will never be less than 1 ton."

There is a rumour circulating in the local area: about 1 month ago, a coal carrier unfortunately sank from the river surface to the bottom of the river in Zhongye Township, Shuicheng County, and one person on board was killed, while the rescued boatman claimed that the ship was attacked by unknown aquatic creatures at the bottom of the water while driving. The reporter asked Li Xianping, secretary of the Party Committee of Nakano Township. Li confirmed that a coal carrier did sink into the bottom of the river 1 month ago, but whether it was caused by the attack of giant fish is still uncertain.

Does this huge unknown aquatic creature belong to fish? Local officials and people all hope to get further research from aquatic experts.

Witnesses at the scene said that the "water monster" was actually a giant fish.

As for the "water monster", Yuan, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of Liupanshui Municipal Committee, said: "There is no water monster at all." 20081October 30th, June 5438+065438+ The weather was fine. In the investigation group of Lake Tourist Area composed of more than 40 people, Yuan stood at the bow with the director of the Municipal Tourism Bureau, Wang, deputy section chief of the Market Development Department, and Fu Mou, a TV reporter. Wang briefed Yuan on the coastal situation.

Just as the ship turned around and sailed, the lake suddenly splashed, and a black fin appeared on the water nearly 100 meters away. Yuan looked intently. "It was actually a huge fish, 8 meters long." People on board exclaimed because they had never seen such a big fish. Wang took the camera from his hand and took seven consecutive photos of Yuan's shadow. At the same time, I shouted to Fu Mou beside me to start the camera quickly and take a video of 1 min 14 seconds.

The boatman Lu is a villager. He has been driving the ferry for 8 years, and he is also surprised that "he has never seen such a big fish". The excited crowd asked him to catch up and see what happened. At this time, the giant fish gradually sank to the bottom of the water, and someone on board warned: don't chase any more. Not long ago, a coal carrier sank in Zhongye Township, Shuicheng County, and it is said that it was attacked by "giant fish".

According to Professor Tian Yingzhou, dean of Liupanshui Normal University who has been engaged in animal teaching and research for a long time, in the 1950s, Mao Kou's generation once caught hundreds of pounds of silver carp. 1986 A silver carp specimen was collected in Fa 'er Township of this basin. Although the specimen is very small, it is very similar to the fin shown in the recently obtained video data. Because there are many caves along the river, it is also possible that the "giant fish" hiding in caves for many years swam into the lake because of building dams to store water, so the possibility that the "giant fish" is silver carp cannot be ruled out. However, the above speculation still needs further study to be established.

The appearance of "giant fish" has attracted the attention of aquatic products and animal research experts.
