Chen Sisi praised the grilled sea urchin made by Su Ran, but it was not because Su Ran was a good cook.

Although this is half the reason, the main reason is that the sea urchin tastes good in itself.

You know, everything in the sea is delicious.

For example, Spanish mackerel has delicate meat, delicious taste and rich nutrition. It is rich in protein, vitamin A, calcium and other nutrients. It has the effect of replenishing qi and relieving cough, and has a certain effect on weak body and cough.

Crabs are rich in protein and trace elements. Crab meat contains more vitamin A, which helps skin keratinization and has anti-tuberculosis effects.

There are also mud ants.

Of course, I’m not insulting anyone.

It is a kind of mud snail, the size of a fingertip and grayish white in color.

It hides in the mud during high tide and likes to crawl in the soft mud of flat bays after low tide. It looks like a snail at first glance, with a soft body and thin shell, and tastes delicious.

These are basically the gifts of the sea to mankind.

After eating and drinking, Su Ran and Chen Sisi walked along the coast in the afterglow of the setting sun, looking for dry firewood.

"We're going to rest nearby at night, so we need to prepare more wood for the fire."

Fire sources are very important in the wild.

It's not only about keeping the body warm, but more importantly, it's about protecting against wild beasts.

Chen Sisi is also very aware of this and is working very hard to collect dry wood.

At this moment, she suddenly saw something like ivory not far away.

"Su Ran, look, is this ivory?"

Chen Sisi squatted on the ground and pointed at the ivory that was perfect in length and thickness.

The surface of this ivory was found to be as smooth as jade, pure white and flawless, as if it were a work of art carefully carved by nature.

Chen Sisi felt a strong curiosity in her heart. She wanted to know where this ivory came from.

"There aren't any elephants here, right?"

"There's definitely no elephant ivory," Su Ran also squatted down, looked at the so-called ivory and suddenly smiled, "This is not ivory, it's walrus teeth."

Chen Sisi's eyelashes fluttered, somewhat surprised.

"Oh? Walrus?"

"Yes," Su Ran nodded with a smile and confirmed, "It's the walrus."

“Are there any walruses here?”

The audience obviously underestimated the animal resources in Bear Country. There are more than just bears here.

"Of course there are. There are several species of walruses in the waters and coastal waters of Bear Country. The largest of them, the Laptev walrus, can reach four meters in length. This type of walrus is considered the rarest and the least numerous."

Hearing Su Ran speak so seriously, the audience opened their mouths in surprise.

"Four meters? That's a bit big."

"Oh my god, this size is bigger than a bear."

"Of course," Su Ran paused, "They can weigh up to 1500 kilograms, and female walruses are slightly smaller."

The walrus is an animal to be reckoned with, so don't let that sweet-looking face and that chubby belly fool you.

In fact, this is the second largest member of the pinniped family, or Phocidae, after the elephant seal!

Because some individuals can weigh as much as 1 to 000 kilograms.

This fact basically makes them taller than any large polar bear!
Regardless of the audience's insistence on comparing walruses and polar bears.

Su Ran said: "In fact, polar bears are considered one of the most dangerous animals to humans. Brown bears are also large, but polar bears are larger and more dangerous because they have no way to escape when attacked."

"You have to know that polar bears can be up to three meters long and 1.3 meters tall. They weigh between 250 and 450 kilograms. Their maximum speed is 40 kilometers per hour. The human running speed record is 13 kilometers per hour."

"But this size is nothing compared to a walrus." Walruses are not harmful to humans, and the same is true for polar bears.

Because polar bears mainly feed on marine animals, namely seals and sea hares.

However, polar bears sometimes visit towns and villages in search of food.

In this case, predators are driven away from areas where humans gather because humans are in danger.

But in some cases, no matter how ferocious the polar bear is, it is not as good as the walrus. The walrus is a truly huge beast with excellent hunting ability.

Su Ran was very happy to see walrus teeth here.

"You can keep it and take it back as a souvenir."

Su Ran picked up the walrus ivory and gave it to Chen Sisi.

At this moment, Su Ran fell into deep thought, and had vaguely imagined the appearance of a lying walrus.

These huge-looking creatures move slowly on the ice using flippers.

In water, they move quite fast.

It can also climb ice floes with the help of its large tusks and fins.

"Is the walrus really that awesome, Sugo?"

"Yeah, I've rarely seen walruses."

It would be strange if I had ever seen it!

Don't say the audience hasn't seen it.

Even Su Ran himself had hardly ever seen a walrus.

This large marine mammal, which mostly lives in Arctic waters, rarely comes into contact with humans.

Their most notable features are two long tusks, which can be used to climb ice or defend against enemies.

Walruses are mammals. They need to breathe air and cannot get oxygen from water like fish. However, they like to go to the bottom of the sea to find food.

Mainly invertebrates on the seabed, such as bivalves, annelids, mollusks, crustaceans, sea cucumbers, etc.

Of course, they will occasionally prey on fish, such as Arctic cod.

Some rare but habitual seal-eating walruses, usually males, are larger than other walruses, with more developed shoulder and chest muscles, and their skin may be greasy from eating seal fat.

Su Ran cast his gaze towards the sea in front of him, seemingly looking for something.

The audience couldn't help but ask curiously: "Brother Su, what are you looking for?"

Su Ran said softly, "I'm trying to see if there's a chance to find a walrus."

The fact that walrus tusks can be found here means that walruses must have lived here in the past.

Walruses usually forage for food no more than 80 meters from the water.

Using its snout to sweep along the seafloor, its sensitive whiskers detect food.

So, this is also the reason why Su Ran paid attention to this area.

"You know, whiskers are the sensory organs of walruses. They can grow up to 30 centimeters, but usually become shorter due to friction with sand and rocks."

"When a walrus finds a tasty crab or clam buried in the sand, it uses its mouth to create a powerful suction force to pull it into its mouth."

"Although these guys are huge, they can only stay in the water for half an hour because they are not good at deep diving."

So it would be great if Su Ran really encountered a walrus coming out to breathe.

But God was not kind to him. After searching for a long time, he didn't find any special clues on the sea.

Especially at this moment, it suddenly started raining. (End of this chapter)
