It is the king of freshwater and foreigners have a headache. After China's introduction, farmers use it to make a fortune.

In such a peaceful world, the exchange of needed goods between countries is also very frequent. China's giant pandas can go to other countries, and of course, the unique species of other countries can also come to our country. In this way we know and come into contact with many creatures, such as polar bears, koalas, kangaroos and so on. Then there are some animals from abroad that are not so popular, such as the invading animals we are going to talk about today. They have no natural enemies in our country and breed wantonly. They once gave Chinese people a headache, but they also have their uses, but many people just don't know.

This kind of animal was originally introduced into our country as a pet. It is a crocodile tortoise. It is called a crocodile tortoise because it is a turtle that looks like a crocodile and is as domineering as a crocodile in the water. Its sharp mouth can successfully bite the fish and shrimp in the water. With it in the water, the status of other animals is in jeopardy, so the crocodile tortoise has the title of "king of freshwater". Unlike other turtles, the shell of a crocodile tortoise has many protrusions, which is indeed of ornamental value. So at the beginning, many people in our country kept it as a pet, but some people finally didn't want to keep it, so they released it in the river, which brought a great ecological crisis to the local river.

Not only in China, but also in some countries in Europe and the United States, crocodile turtles are rampant because they do not have natural enemies, which gives foreigners a headache, which leads to large-scale hunting of crocodile turtles by foreigners. now crocodile turtles have become a vulnerable species. But this does not mean that the crocodile tortoise is very rare. On the contrary, due to the release of people in our country, it can be seen in many rivers, freshwater lakes and ponds. Some people do not know its harm and think it is a rare thing after capturing it, but they do not realize that it is the king of freshwater that frightens other species.

Although the crocodile tortoise is powerful, it has become a way for farmers to get rich in our country. Crocodile turtles soon became known for their meat and began to be farmed. Its meat is very tender, and there is no other taste, and the edible rate is very high. after people use it to cook soup, not only the meat taste is first-class, but also the nutritional value can not be achieved by other foods. Eating crocodile turtles is of great benefit to weak people and has effective medicinal value for a variety of deficiency diseases, so people have always been very popular with crocodile turtles.

Now a large number of farmed crocodile turtles are beginning to go to people's dining tables, and its price is also very good, about 800 yuan per kilogram. Some farmers can increase their income by about 10,000 yuan a year by raising crocodile turtles on a small scale. In addition to being used for eating turtles, the skin of crocodile turtles is also a good raw material for making leather bags and belts. Readers, have you ever seen a crocodile turtle?
