What fish wants to get married most?

In many people's minds, there must be a deeply engraved impression: in the blue sea, mermaid roams in the water, and her elegant posture and ethereal singing attract passing fishing boats ... Mermaid, a legendary name and image, often appears in dramas, novels, movies and other literary works.

In fact, in shatian town, Hepu County, Guangxi, the mermaid is not only a dream, but also a legend. She is also a real image that many elderly fishermen have seen.

The scientific name of mermaid is dugong, commonly known as manatee. It is a national first-class protected animal and one of the 43 endangered vertebrates in China. In China, it is mainly distributed in Beibu Gulf. Professor Pan of Peking University called Dugong "the flagship animal of wetland biodiversity conservation". He said that the protection of dugong will definitely affect the survival and protection of other creatures in the whole ecosystem. The existence of dugong represents the existence of ecological community in Beibu Gulf, the existence of biological community including people and dugong, and the clear water there.

At the same time, dugong also carries people's fantasies and sustenance. It is a beautiful animal that the whole world dreams of and contains rich cultural connotations.
