It’s the first time in my life.
A flyer about finding dolphins.
I’ve seen flyers in the neighborhood saying they’re looking for a dog or cat, but…
He said that he was looking for a dolphin in danger and asked for a report if he found it. It seems that the situation Dan-i is in is really urgent, and it seems that Jeju Island is a place where a lot of dolphins live.
My heart is not very good.
If the contents of the leaflet are true, ‘Dani’ is unable to feed properly and has no choice but to live day by day in pain.
Fortunately, Dan’s mother sticks by his side.
It will not be easy for the two of them to live in this harsh and rapidly changing Jeju sea environment.
Isn’t that why he stepped out of the dolphin protection solidarity?
My heart was suddenly heavy and I wanted to help find the dolphin no matter what, and I wanted to release the old fishing gear and fishing line that were wrapped around Dan-i’s fin and mouth.
I inadvertently gave my gaze to the distant sea.
What a sense of heterogeneity from such a beautiful emerald-colored sea…
‘What is it?’
It’s strange to jump into the sea in Happy to find Dani right away.
After thinking about it for a while, I called the ‘Dolphins Protection Solidarity’ that distributed the flyers.
“hello. The Dolphins Protection Regiment, right?”
“Yes, it is.”
“When I saw Dan, I saw a flyer asking for information and contacted me.”
“Oh, is that so! Where are you! Where did you find Dan-i?”
Oops… I felt sorry for nothing.
because that’s not it
The voice of the protection regiment staff was extremely excited.
There seemed to be already a buzzing sound from the surroundings beyond the handset.
“Ah.. I didn’t find Dan.. It’s my first time in Jeju Island, so I don’t know how to find Dan.
“Ah… you see. Wait a minute… please wait…”
“Yes, yes.. I understand..”
The receiver asked for permission to wait, but it seemed like he was asking the person in charge.
Suddenly, I remembered the time when I encountered the complaints of civil servants when I was a freshman civil servant.
the talk is over,
“Excuse me, but where are you now?”
“This is Seogwipo.”
“Ah… that’s good. Our office is located in Seogwipo. Please take a moment to visit our office while on the road and we will inform you in detail.”
It is only a 10-minute drive away.
No need to hesitate.
Because I was so curious about how to save Dan-i.
#
The people of the Dolphins Protection Solidarity were ordinary people like us.
Two staff greeted me and expressed regret that the population of the 120 or so southern dolphins living on Jeju Island is gradually decreasing, and thanked Dan-i for his interest.
“In fact, Dan Yi isn’t the only dolphin dying from discarded fishing lines and gear.”
“Ah, is that so?”
“Okay, would you like to see this?”
What they took out and showed was the appearance of the fishing line caught in the tail and dorsal fin, and the fishing line caught in the dorsal fin, which made swimming unnatural.
“Recognize dolphins by their dorsal fin.. Each individual is different. like a human fingerprint. And they keep moving 50 kilometers a day. Because dolphins are also mammals, they need to breathe. That’s why we don’t stay in one place and keep moving.”
“Oh, I see.”
“Dani needs to be found quickly. As time goes by, this fishing line keeps digging and struggling to cut it off, and the wound deepens, and in the end it is cut like this.”
“ah…”
Show a picture of a southern dolphin whose caudal fin has been completely cut off.
“His name is ‘Old’. It is a name that our exploration team created to live long in the sea. When we first discovered them, we were anxious because they were not adults, but now they are adults, and they feed well and live without breaking away from the herd.”
“Fortunately, like humans, we live with close ties with family and friends. Like us humans, they have excellent self-awareness and empathy.”
“It is an unusual case for a long time. They have adapted well to group life and don’t have a tail, which would be inconvenient, but they are active in feeding. Those who were found tangled in fishing line and discarded gear last year… have not yet been found.”
“then…”
“Maybe dead… I don’t know.”
“hmm….”
It all happened because of human greed and lack of consideration for nature.
He also added that although he observes with drones and explores by dividing teams, there are limitations with a small number of people and budget.
I wanted to help.
No, I wanted to meet Danyi quickly and remove his dorsal fin and the gear around his mouth.
Because I have Happy, Cash, and Galaxy.
“Then, what’s the quickest way to find Dan-i?”
“First of all, there is a primary exploration method of observing the coastal waters of Jeju Island by car.”
“hmm…”
You may find it through the cache.
“Is there any other way?”
“Yes.. the other way…”
Jeju Island is a gimbap heaven
“It can be found in the traditional fishing method of Jeju Island.”
“?”
What does the fishing method of Jeju Island have to do with dolphins?
I was so curious that I watched the mouth of the protection regiment worker sitting in front of me.
Two employees showing off videos and photos taken with drones from Jeju Island Air.
“Ah…Is this a dolphin feeding inside the stone wall?”
“Yes, this is called ‘Wondam’, a stone net built by Jeju fishermen. It is a stone wall that is no longer in use. If the stone walls are stacked up and the fish that come in during the high tide cannot escape during the low tide, fishermen go in and catch them. But now, dolphins are resting and feeding in the stone nets that are not being used.”
A fishing method in which fish that have entered the high tide are caught when they are trapped in the low tide.
‘Poison’ in Taean and ‘Wondam’ in Jeju are typical examples.
He added that no fishermen use these stone nets as fishing gear due to difficulties in maintenance.
“ah..”
“Even when the water recedes, it is as deep as an adult’s height. You can easily hunt the fish gathered on the stone wall. Dani stayed here for about a month. It’s because the feeding activity is not good. I’m worried because I rarely see them these days.”
Drone observation and scuba observation.
With Happy and Cathy, it seems possible.
“I also feel sorry for Bibong who went back to the sea last year.”
“!”
The photos he showed me were horrific.
It was because part of Bibong’s dorsal fin had been cut off.
“This…why is this?
“It must have been cut off by a fishing boat or tour yacht screw.”
“A sightseeing yacht?”
“Southern giant dolphin tourism products are springing up in the vicinity of Jeju Island. It is a serious problem.”
“ah…”
There really is no end to human greed and deceit.
It is said that yachts and tour boats are waiting with their eyes on to see the swimming southern bottlenose dolphin.
He added that they even lure them toward the ship or come close to them.
It is life-threatening for dolphins.
‘This isn’t really…’
Like fluorescent lights, several methods came to mind.
“Yes, I understand. If I ever see the shadows of Dan and Bibong during the trip, I will be sure to contact you.”
“You seem to be staying in Jeju Island for a long time.”
“Yes, I came over to Jeju Island to rest my mind.”
“You are traveling comfortably, but thank you for taking interest in the dolphins living in Jeju Island. If people show a lot of interest like this, our local dolphins can be designated as a natural monument and become a marine life preservation area..”
“Ah.. Natural Monument..”
Come to think of it, yes.
The southern giant dolphin was not a natural monument.
“The southern bottlenose dolphin is still a protected designation.”
“Oh, I see..”
“Still, there is hope because a million YouTubers are interested.”
I knew.
These people also know that I am a million youtuber..
There’s no need to hide it anymore.
“While I am on Jeju Island, I will do anything I can to help.”
Why am I like this?
There is a chance that Dan and Bibong will not be found, but I believe in Cathy and Happy and my confidence is growing.
no.
It is a responsibility as a YouTuber of 1 Million Chewing Gum Channel.
Although pride and arrogance collided, they took comfort in being interested and started a solidarity for protection.
#
The first thing I did after leaving the protection regiment was to head to Wondam, a stone net where Dan-i had been for a month.
It was because I was certain that I would definitely come back there.
From Seogwipo to Gujwa Beach, you need to hurry because it is the opposite.
I had to ask Song while moving by autonomous driving.
I was busy looking at the dorsal fins of dolphins floating on the sea.
“Song?”
[Tell me]
“I need to search for dolphins in the waters near Jeju Island.”
[Wait a moment]
After a while..
On the space above the glove box, a hologram displaying countless marine organisms active in the waters near Jeju Island was projected.
“There are too many. Show only the dolphins.”
[I get it]
At my command, each of the marine creatures displayed on the hologram began to be erased.
“oh…”
The number of southern dolphins living in the coastal area of Jeju Island is about 120.
Dolphins in groups of up to 30 are not that many points.
I think .. but they are scattered.
Three or four… five or six… a large group of about 10.
With Happy’s ability, he could have chased the group and found Dan and Bibong.
However, this method is unwise.
As the Conservation Solidarity staff said, it would cause great fear and stress to other active dolphins.
My confidence that I would find ‘Handam’ again was because there was a flounder farm nearby.
Flounder feed flowing out of the farm is also an important food, so there is a good chance that Dani, who is not free from feeding activities, will come back.
Soon the sun is going down.
Heavy armament was needed as the plan was to hit a site near Handam and observe the situation.
On the way from Seogwipo, I decided to stop by the market in downtown Jeju.
Winter goods and food, such as shelters and gas stoves that can be installed by docking with winter clothes and Moosong.
I had to buy a lot of live fish to give to the dolphins, so time was running out.
#
I bought everything and arrived at Gujwa Beach.
The sun had set and it was dark, and only the street lamps were illuminating the surroundings.
We started to build a site on the beach where ‘Handam’ is located.
The purchased shelter was carefully installed using the awning as the ceiling to prevent the winter wind from coming in, and a gas stove was also operated inside to warm the surroundings.
It was easy to block the cold by wearing a cold-weather jumper.
“It’s hot. Song?”
[Tell me]
“Ah… no.”
[……]
I tried to locate the dolphin by looking at the holograms projected by Moosong here all night.
however..
I know.
If so, the energy of the galaxy is consumed a lot.
I had to restrain myself because I had to conserve energy as much as possible.
Knowing that, Galaxy has no answer.
I believe that when the energy of happiness is filled to a certain extent, Galaxy will also speak.
First of all, after dinner, I decided to check in the morning.
Docking the shelter next to Musong created a cozy space.
From noble mtl dot com
Well, it was good to check them up close, although it wasn’t enough for Gum and Kandol-soon to play.
Because it is also a dark night.
I’ll open it during the day. Even if it’s hard, you have to be patient.
After setting up the shelter and stove, the first thing I did was to put a bubbler into a container containing the live fish I had bought to feed the dolphins.
Dolphins need to be eaten alive.
Bubbly.
I was relieved to see that water bubbles were rising.
“Now then, shall we have dinner?”
For dinner, I packed gimbap for a simple meal.
I thought it would be a little empty with gimbap, so I decided to boil the whole squid I received as a gift today.
So, tonight’s menu will be Jeju-do gimbap and steamed whole squid.
I didn’t know because I stopped by the market.
There are many unique gimbap restaurants and unfamiliar gimbap in Jeju Island.
I was really surprised when I saw Jeong-Ryu.
Saury Gimbap, Hairtail Gimbap, Black Pork Gimbap, Tteokgalbi Gimbap, Sesame Leaf Gimbap, Spicy Anchovy Gimbap, Black Don Gimbap, Samda Gimbap, Doldam Gimbap, Anchovy Gimbap, Spicy Gimbap, Jinmichae Gimbap, Whole Abalone Gimbap, Cutlassfish Gimbap, Abalone Until the cup…
All of the former have been tasted.
If so, can you imagine what it would taste like?
Not at all.
So, I set a childish goal to try everything at least once while on Jeju Island.
Today, I took out Doldam Gimbap at a place that has become a famous gimbap restaurant in a TV drama and has been introduced as a gimbap restaurant in several TV programs.
A gimbap set made with black rice and black pork.
