Mr. Chen doesn't know if it is a national protected animal? He hopes that experts or readers can help him solve the puzzle. "Finally, I plan to let the softshell turtle return to nature and release it in Nanshan, Sanya these two days." Hainan Daily reported on April 10 (reported by Wang Zhanzhen and interned by Qiu Wen with photography) - weighing 22.5 catties, with a shell length of more than 70 centimeters and width of more than 30 centimeters. On the evening of April 9th, Mr. Chen from Haikou spent 1000 yuan to buy a softshell turtle from others and decided to release it in Nanshan, Sanya. "I have never seen such a big softshell turtle before." Not knowing whether this is a protected animal, Mr. Chen called our newspaper's hotline for consultation. At about 9 p.m. on the 9th, the reporter went to Mr. Chen's house. According to Mr. Chen's introduction, he just bought this softshell turtle for 1000 yuan from someone he knew, who said that this softshell turtle was caught from the Nandu River. "When I weighed this softshell turtle, it turned out to weigh 22.5 catties, which is the first time I have seen such a big softshell turtle." Mr. Chen picked up the softshell turtle with both hands, but after two minutes, his hands felt sore. "Hehe, it's too heavy." Weighing 22.5 catties, this softshell turtle is really heavy. After buying this softshell turtle, Mr. Chen bought the largest basin at the market for it, but when he put the softshell turtle in, it filled the entire basin. Mr. Chen then let the softshell turtle move freely in the space between the living room and bathroom at home. He also bought fresh fish as food for it and gave it a bath. "This little guy is quite mischievous. It even bit through the basin at the beginning." Regarding this matter, the reporter consulted several experts within the province, who stated that further identification is needed to reach a conclusion.
