Fugu rollover is a large oceanic fish with a maximum body length of 3.0 to 5.5 meters and a weight of 1400 to 3500 kilograms. Swimming alone or in pairs, sometimes more than ten tails in groups, small individual fish are more active, often jump out of the water, large individual fish move slowly, often lying on the side of the water, or dorsal fins out of the water, can also dive into more than 100 meters of deep water, feed on algae, molluscs, jellyfish, planktonic crustaceans and small fish. Molas have the largest number of eggs among fish, with a large number of eggs, up to 300 million. The young fish are covered with verrucous spinous process, which gradually disappears with age, and the body becomes oval.

The mambo fish was originally called a Mola in Taiwan. Fishermen often saw it lying on the surface of the water as if it were sunbathing and described it as a "rollover". When the weather is good, Molas will put their dorsal fins out of the water to float their sails and bask in the sun to raise their body temperature. When the weather becomes bad, the side body will float flat on the water, paddle and control the direction with the dorsal and anal fins, and you can use the dorsal fins to somersault in the sea and dive into the sea floor.

Can I eat it?

According to the data, Mola is of high economic value. In addition to scientific research and ornamental, it is also a valuable edible fish and can be eaten. Its bony fleshy and less peeled fish is about 1x10 of its body weight, but its meat is average, white, has high nutritional value, and its protein content is higher than that of the famous Pomfret and belt fish.

Molas' intestines are also very expensive. "Miaolong Soup", a famous Taiwanese dish, is used as the main ingredient, which is crispy and delicious. In addition, fish skin can also be used as a raw material for making gelatin or fish oil as a lubricant for precision instruments and machinery. Cod liver can be made into cod liver oil and edible hydrogenated oil.

It can be said that Molas are covered with treasures. Molas are distributed in temperate and tropical seas all over the world, including the South China Sea and the East China Sea. They are large oceanic fishes, which are often found in tropical and subtropical oceans, as well as temperate or cold oceans, and are also distributed in China.

In our country, some places believe in evil and think that catching Molas is bad luck, so when Molas are caught, they should be released immediately. If it is used for consumption, it will run into evil spirits at any time and may even lose its life. Because of this, some people wonder whether Molas can be eaten. Of course, many places do not believe in this evil! However, looking at such a lovely picture of Mola, diners had better show mercy!

Is it true how you died?

No, no, As for the problem of "bubbles in the eyes", the Molas' eyes are completely exposed to the water while diving, one eye may be completely exposed to the air when sunbathing, and the Molas do not have eyelids and there is no room for bubbles. As for the real cause of death of Molas, it may still have something to do with humans.
