Starfish dry to death in Phu Quoc with a series of virtual "sin" images of tourists

Recently, the image of starfish dying in Rach Vem, Phu Quoc is currently causing outrage throughout the online community. Ms. HA - a Hanoi tourist took a photo and posted it on the Phu Quoc travel experience sharing forum with the caption: "Your hearts are baked this morning until noon... !".

The image shared by Ms. HA is causing a stir in the online community.

According to Ms. HA herself, the scene of starfish dying and lying on the sand was taken by her around noon on April 2. Before that, she and her family had never known this virtual living place. While sitting in a taxi to Rach Vem, the driver who took her also introduced her as "a beach with many stars, and even arranged into a heart shape".

She shared: "I was led to this place by the taxi driver, who told me that there were many beautiful starfish. When I got there, I saw a scene like the picture. Starfish were arranged in a heart shape on dry sand, waves did not come in. coming. All of them are crooked, all black. I feel really frustrated."

The female tourist said that maybe some people wanted good photos, so they arranged it like that. After shooting, they left the starfish to dry in the sun. She added: "My family tried to put 2 starfish that have not been bent into the water. However, it must be too late."

The above images quickly spread at breakneck speed on MXH. Underneath many posts, netizens think that perhaps the starfish are lying dead because they were brought ashore by tourists but forgot to "bring them back home".

In fact, the problem of catching starfish ashore to take pictures has become a "trend" of a part of tourists. If you search for the keyword "Rach Vem" on social networks, you will see hundreds or even thousands of photos of starfish. Even the top results for this site are all starfish lined up ashore with people sitting beside them.

From children to young people, there are also older brothers and sisters or foreigners. In particular, many famous and influential people like Quynh Anh Shyn or An Vy (FAPTV actor) were also dug up when taking pictures with starfish.

Most frustrating is the image of a group of friends catching starfish ashore and forming the words "Candy" to take virtual pictures. This girl also worked hard to arrange starfish into a heart shape to take pictures. This guy taking pictures with starfish is not enough to hold it in his hand to try the strange feeling? Another guy carelessly took 1001 poses with starfish.

This girl took pictures with the starfish and "dedicatedly" brought it back to the ocean, but she didn't know that if she left the water for a few tens of seconds, the starfish would die immediately.

According to Earth Buddies, catching starfish ashore is an "extremely dangerous" action. This newspaper claims that many people have a misconception that marine life will still be alive if lifted out of the water, as long as it is less than 5 minutes.

"It's irresponsible. The first reason is that most sea creatures, including starfish, need to breathe to live. And they can only breathe underwater. Starfish breathe through the base of tubes and papillae. (small marks on their body) In short, their breathing organs are located all over their body.

Most starfish can only hold their breath for less than 30 seconds. Five minutes without water is like a death sentence for them," the newspaper wrote.

There are many other "sinful" virtual live pictures posted on social networks

The harm of catching starfish out of the water to take pictures of virtual life is really great, but many "innocent" tourists still think it's just a very normal action. Moreover, the crowd effect on social networks is also partly killing the marine ecosystem.
