    Science Fiction Network, August 25 (Wang Xiuxia) Recently, scientists reported that the dugong, believed to be the prototype of the mermaid, has become extinct in China


    They are mild-mannered and similar in appearance to manatees, but with a whale-like tail


    Dugongs are marine herbivorous mammals that mainly live in the shallow tropical seas of South China, and can be seen in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan and other places


    In areas with high human activity, dugongs tend to forage at night


    The whole body of the dugong is a treasure


    According to the data, the creature was last discovered in China in 2008


    In fact, the tragedy of animal extinction has been staged
