Lead:
The owl hunted a large Shounomiya at night, and this Daimorinomiya did not choose to run away, but turned around and opened its mouth to the owl, as if preparing to fight back.
The choice of this big palace is puzzling, but the owl was not harmed, so how did this big palace fight back?
Origin of the name of the Great Shogu Palace:
Dashougong is a name for the great gecko, which is the Chinese collective name for chameleons.
And the Omorinomiya refers to the great gecko, its scientific name is the western great gecko, in terms of size, it can reach more than 30 centimeters.
This is even larger than the average cat, making it the largest gecko species in the world.
The name "Shougong" comes from the ancient book "Erya", and it was only a name for a lizard at the earliest.
This lizard is small in size and mild-tempered, and judging from its habit of lying in the middle of the day and haunting at night, it can catch insects at night, so in the eyes of the ancients, its presence under the clear night sky gives people a bright feeling.
And they "guard", that is, vigil, time and space silence, to the pedestrian who has just stepped into the night to give a bright feeling, so people call it "Shougong".
In ancient times, people were superstitious that this animal could attract good fortune and ward off evil spirits, protect the homeland, and was also a symbol of good luck.
So people raised lizards on the door or pasted them on the wall to symbolize the peace of the home.
Over time, this custom slowly evolved into the name of the lizard by the ancients.
Some people who like folklore also call this lizard "lizard", so the names of the two are complicated.
The lizard is also known by different names, the common people of Guilin in Guangxi Province generally call it the Dashou Palace, while elsewhere, the gecko is called the "lizard" or "earth frog".
In Henan and other places, lizards are called "Tuqing", and there are even some places where lizards are called "earth kites".
Characteristics of the Great Shogu Palace:
The reputation of the "lizard" of the Great Shougong is outside, and even the common people are members of the "soil frog" family when they open the door, and they are all geckos.
They do nothing but prey on insects at night, and are quite active at night, in groups, sometimes chirping in unison.
In the early morning in Guilin, when the common people were busy making breakfast, they walked into the Dashou Palace in the house and forcibly invaded the family space.
And the common people were even more surprised, and smiled evilly: "Tuqing is here again!"
Dashougong is very common in the Guilin area and is one of the most common varieties in the region.
The Grand Shogu is fond of nighttime activities, and they can be found everywhere, making them very popular with adults and children as toys at night.
The Damorinomiya is large in size and flexible in movement.
The overly flexible posture makes the children have a lot of fun, grabbing, grabbing, fighting, swooping, throwing and smashing.
The difference is that adults often disdain the palace and treat it as a plaything, but children love it.
In addition, the children will also use bamboo tubes to catch the Daimori Palace, place them on high places, and release them in a way that their parents consider more humane.
In the vision of the Great Shounomiya, their pupils are relatively large and can adapt to a parallax greater than 1.5, so the dilated pupils at night can see the surrounding environment clearly.
When they don't need to dilate, they shrink their pupils and become smaller.
Their eyebrows have well-developed nerves, so they can perceive different changes in light at night, and can react very quickly when the light changes.
Under different lighting conditions, their sub-pupils also change within 0.5 seconds.
The eyes of the Omorigu are derived from compound eyes, each of which has two eyelids, and the tissue of the inner eyelid protrudes forward, forming a large part of the orbit.
At the bottom of the eye, there are tubular tear glands, which have very small, tubular openings to prevent tears from flowing out.
The eyelids of Omorinomiya are very thin, almost transparent, and the color of the pupils can be seen.
They have a variety of colors between their orbits and pupils, capable of appearing white, gray, blue, black, etc.
However, around the eyes, there is usually only texture and no pigment.
The Great Shonomiya is very capable of visual perception, being able to sense moving objects in the dark, and they are also able to quickly change color and adapt to their surroundings.
The structure of the soles of their feet is relatively special, and there are many microvilli at the bottom, and when the microvilli touch the smooth surface, they will become very fine, forming the ability to adsorb.
But it's not the suction cups, it's the structure of the micro-villi that allows them to crawl freely on smooth surfaces.
Changes in the movements of the Great Guard:
The tail of the Omorinomiya is not only long, but also stout, and judging from its size, the tail is also relatively long, and it is very powerful.
In case of danger, the Daimoriya will re-fold its tail into two to confuse the predator.
The tail resembles a writhing shrimp, attracting the attention of predators and buying time to escape.
When viewed from the side, the tail looks like there are many of them, which is very confusing.
Moreover, the tail of the Great Shonomiya is very strong, and it can be broken, and it can be quickly regenerated after the tail is broken.
And in the process of regeneration, the nose secretes a kind of mucus called regenerative fluid, which has a lot of cells that have the ability to regenerate.
That is, the tail that regenerates after tail docking is grown from the cells in this regeneration fluid.
Omorinomiya likes to eat fresh insects, which are very picky eaters.
Won't eat something dead.
After mating, the Omori Palace will be inseparable from its mate, changing its color depending on the presence of its partner.
The concept of love in the Great Shougong is more peculiar, and after mating, it will have a strong loyalty characteristic.
After the disappearance of the partner, martyrdom will be chosen.
Even sometimes when you meet your partner on the road, you mistakenly think that your partner's other half will die together.
During the breeding season, the courtship dance of the Omorigu Palace is very interesting.
When mating, they will first become more beautiful in color, and then start dancing on the ground.
Their dance mainly relies on body bending, twisting, swinging and other movements, together with the sound of chirping, to perform the dance of courtship.
In the eyes of other Daishonomiya, their dancing is normal, but in the eyes of other animals, their dancing may not be very good-looking.
Epilogue:
The behavior and habits of the Great Shonomiya are also interesting, and their living habits, ecological adaptability, etc., are worth studying.
The Grand Shogu Palace plays an important role in the ecosystem, maintaining ecological balance, and has a positive significance for the harmonious coexistence of man and nature.
The diversity of species and the strong vitality of the Grand Shougong make us full of admiration for its ecological adaptability, and at the same time bring us a lot of inspiration.
This ancient and magical creature really makes us more curious and eager to explore the world.
