At 1 pm that day, "Myth Q Born Wind" reported this video. After half an hour, the platform feedback said that the video was reduced, but the video was not deleted. According to the "Timiko" IP territory and the street view in the video, everyone judged that the video was taken in Nanchong, Sichuan, and the group friends also reported the matter to the fishing administration department of Nanchong.

In order to dig out the supplier behind the shark, the "myth Q explosion" and the group of friends planned to undergo an undercover "Temple" to set up relevant information. They all pretended to be "Temple" fans in total, and first left a message in the video comment area to say that they wanted to buy sharks, but "Tonzi" only responded to the top two comments at the top of the comment area.

That night, "Myth Q Born Wind" and others searched through the map, and also confirmed that the specific location of the seafood shop door of the seafood shop where the video was filmed was the seafood supermarket in a community next to Gaoping District, Nanchong City.

Jimu reporters learned that on July 16, a police officer had a "polyzi" investigation in the seafood shop. According to the sea shop owner introduced to the media, the shark was brought by the "Temple" itself. The shooting of the venue at the door of his shop was not purchased at the store.

"Myth Q Born Wind" told Jimu Journalists that he was a hospitable enthusiast in the protection of wild animals. At that time, after seeing the video of "Temu", he felt that the national second -level protective animals such as Great White Shark were suspected of crime. He must report.

Can be appraised by shark retaining organization

Jimu News previously reported that "Timoko" had argued that he was not eating big white sharks, but sharp -toothed sharks. Some popular science bloggers said that sharp -toothed sharks are indeed their objects. Its formal Chinese name is Daguchi Sand Strip Shark. It is found in the South my country Sea and the southern part of Taiwan in my country, but it is called a sharp -tooth shark in Taiwan. The body color, head shape, eyes, fin, and body shape of the large -hole sand strips are obviously different from the big white shark. The limit of the large-hole sand strip shark is 1 meter long, and the average body length of adult individuals is 0.6-0.9 meters. The body length of the shark in the video sent by "Timoko" is obviously more than 1 meter.

However, there are also media reports that experts from the Nanhai Aquatic Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Aquatic Sciences are preliminarily judged based on the video and pictures. This may be a sharp kissing shark, which is generally impossible to carry out artificial breeding. The sharp kiss is fierce, with records of people, good meat quality, liver oil can be used as medicine, distributed in the East my country Sea, Taiwan Sea and the South China Sea, and included in the "IUCN 2018 Ver 3.1) -" IUCN 2018 " - Endangered (EN).

The popular science blogger does not agree with the conclusion of this appraisal. He said that although the sharp kisses and sharks are the same as the family of mouse sharks, there are many differences in the head, body color, pectoral fins, teeth, and body shape. To this end, he made another simple identification feature diagram.

What species is the shark eaten by "Timoko"? The blogger said that the police would ask professional institutions to identify. If the shark is best for organization, you can find a professional institute for gene sequencing, so that the results obtained are not controversial. This tissue can be a shark meat in the refrigerator or the cartilage of the shark. If there is no organization residue, it can only be confirmed by morphological identification, that is, to identify it through video or the corresponding pictures provided by the anchor. In addition, he also said that during the video shooting, many surrounding viewers were taking pictures. I hope they will actively provide evidence to the police after seeing the report. If other netizens find that clues can also be provided to the police. Jimu Journalists also noticed that the Chinese referee documents showed that a man in Dalian, Liaoning, sold three teeth of 3 sharks (Great White Sharks) to Jiangsu Yancheng men at a price of 18,000.
