The FRIEND of the killer whale:the false killer whale.

The killer whale has a good brother, the pseudo killer whale, which is very similar in appearance, food, and even name. They live in the same ocean (because they have a very wide range of activities, except for some places where whales can't live, they basically have their two brothers), isn't this a manifestation of biodiversity.

Although the pseudo killer whale is not as famous as the killer whale, it is still a very special species. When the false killer whale is excited, it will gracefully jump out of the water and hit the waves with its tail. But he was very free, because this kind of excitement is often the culprit for their stranding. In November 2016, two false killer whales of more than 100 catties ran aground on the beach of Daitou Town, Xiuyu District, Putian City, Fujian Province. The rescuers worked hard to pull the larger one out and release it first, but the big whale refused to swim. Halfway through the swim, he returned and rushed to the beach. The villagers had to take care of the smaller one and some of the big whales. Everyone lifted the little whale to a low-lying place in the water and hugged it to the side of the big whale before the two whales were willing to move together. However, this kind of whale, which is as naive as the killer whale, has high nutritional value, is a treasure, and has been cut across by ocean pollution. Now it has become a national second-class protected animal. On the way to protect biodiversity, we still need to work hard.
