A wearable vehicle for finless porpoises

Abstract

The invention relates to a wearable vehicle for finless porpoise, which includes a body and a buoyancy component. The body is in the shape of a cylinder with two ends open, and two fin holes are arranged on the side; a buoyancy component fixing part is set on the back of the body, so The buoyancy component is fixed in the buoyancy component fixing part; the back of the body is provided with a communication component fixing part; the wearable vehicle is sewn with water-soluble thread so that after the water-soluble thread is dissolved, the wearable vehicle is removed from the finless porpoise Fall off. Fixing the buoyancy unit on the back instead of the abdomen has less impact on the activities of the finless porpoise. The size of the fin hole fits the finless porpoise's pelvic fin as much as possible to prevent the vehicle from curling, making it soft and breathable next to the body, without causing discomfort to the finless porpoise. The water-soluble wire is selected from the wire that has been completely dissolved in the wild water body for about 3 months, so that after the monitoring is completed, the wire dissolves, and after the vehicle body is unfolded, it falls off the finless porpoise and floats to the river surface due to the buoyancy of the buoyancy component for recycling.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of environment and animal protection, and more particularly relates to a wearable carrier suitable for finless porpoises. Background technique [0002] Aquatic animal protection is one of the key points and difficult problems of water environment protection. The Yangtze finless porpoise is a small freshwater cetacean with an adult body about 1.5 meters long and without a dorsal fin. The finless porpoise is a unique population of freshwater whales in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. It is one of the important components of the Yangtze River and belongs to the second-class national protected animals. In recent years, with the destruction of habitat, the deterioration of water environment and the disturbance of human activities, the number of finless porpoises has declined sharply, and its protection status may be upgraded from a second-class protected animal to a first-class protected animal.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the vest has some drawbacks

First, when carrying electronic components (such as a positioner), the electronic components are easy to slide in the placement cavity, and are prone to friction with the skin, causing skin damage

Second, the vest is equipped with a cylindrical buoyancy bucket on the abdomen of the finless porpoise, which is likely to cause inconvenience for the finless porpoise

Third, the buoyancy barrel can easily interfere with the finless porpoise's judgment of buoyancy
