Size and Weight

Length: Adult male orcas typically reach 20 to 26 feet (about 6 to 8 meters), while females are smaller, around 16 to 23 feet (about 5 to 7 meters).

Weight: Male orcas can weigh up to 12,000 pounds (about 5,400 kilograms), while females range from 3,000 to 8,000 pounds (about 1,400 to 3,600 kilograms).

Habitat:

distribution range: Killer whales are widely distributed in the world's oceans, from Arctic and Antarctic waters to tropical seas. Habitat: They can be found in coastal waters, open oceans, and deep oceans, often preferring areas rich in fish and marine mammals.

Diet:

Behavior:

They often travel around to visit and mate with other ethnic groups

Lifespan:
50 – 90 years

Conversation Status:

Since the whaling industry in human history has never targeted killer whales, the number of killer whales is considered stable. It is unreliably estimated that there are at least 100,000 killer whales in the global ocean. Currently, killer whales are not in danger of extinction, but Hunting may have contributed to the decline of killer whale populations in some areas.

Lifespan: The average lifespan for male killer whales is about 30 years, but they can live up to at least 60 years. Females typically live about 50 years, but they can live up to at least 90 years in the wild.

Conservation Status: All killer whales are protected under the MMPA, and the Southern Resident population is listed as an endangered species under the ESA. They also focused on their conservation efforts to help rebuild endangered and depleted populations on the West Coast and Alaska.

What is the mystery about?

The mystery involves Susanoo-no-Mikoto, a powerful but chaotic god in Japanese mythology. His battle with the eight-headed serpent Yamata-no-Orochi, and the discovery of the legendary Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi sword, raises questions about Susanoo’s true role—whether he was merely a destructive force or had a deeper purpose.

What clues or evidence are there?

Ancient texts like the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki describe Susanoo’s erratic behavior, his defeat of Yamata-no-Orochi, and the discovery of the sword within the serpent. However, there’s no physical evidence or archaeological proof, leaving much of the story to myth.

When and where did it happen?

The events occurred in the mythical past, before recorded history, in the Izumo region, which holds great importance in Japanese myth.

Who are the people involved?

Susanoo, his sister Amaterasu, the sun goddess, and Kushinadahime, a woman he saved from being sacrificed to Yamata-no-Orochi, are key figures in this myth.

What are the main ideas or theories about it?

1. Susanoo as a misunderstood hero: His chaos was a necessary force for balance.

2. Yamata-no-Orochi as a metaphor: The serpent represents natural disasters like floods.

3. Duality of Susanoo: He embodies both destruction and salvation.

Why do some people believe these theories?

Susanoo’s later redemption, offering the Kusanagi sword as a peace gift, hints at a more complex character. The serpent’s symbolism fits natural disaster myths from other cultures, while his duality is seen in his mix of destructive and heroic acts.

How has this mystery affected people or research?

Susanoo’s myths are central to Japanese Shinto religion, and his complex character continues to inspire scholars and artists, reflecting his importance in culture.

Why hasn't it been solved yet?

The mythological nature of the stories, lack of evidence, and their allegorical purpose keep the mystery open to interpretation, rather than definitive answers.

1. What is the traditional festival you want to introduce?

The traditional festival I would like to introduce is “Tiān Chuān Rì” (天穿日), also known as “The Day the Sky Broke.” This festival is celebrated primarily in southern China, especially among the Hakka people. It is observed on the 20th day of the first lunar month.

2. What do people do during this traditional festival?

On Tiān Chuān Rì, people commemorate the legend of Nüwa, the goddess who mended the sky after it broke. Traditional activities include offering sacrifices to Nüwa, making dumplings, and eating foods like rice cakes and fried dough to symbolize patching the sky. Some families also avoid using knives and tools, believing that rest and simplicity help avoid bad luck.

3. Do you enjoy this traditional festival? Why? Why not?

I find this festival fascinating because of its mythological origins and the deep cultural connection it represents. It’s a unique way to honor ancient beliefs about the cosmos and the goddess Nüwa.

What is the traditional festival you want to introduce?

The festival I like to introduce is called Mid-Autumn Festival.(中秋節）Normally we celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15 in lunar calendar.

According to historical poems, people go on a full moon watching as a traditional event since 770 BCE. But it was until the Yuan empire that people celebrate this festival every year. The story said that when the Yuan people tried to started a revolution to the Mongolia people, they stuffed little pieces of paper inside mooncakes as signals, after all the army received the signals, they attack the Mongolia army in the midnight and won the war in the end. After that every mid-autumn festival, people will give mooncakes to friends or families as blessing. Although, the way Taiwanese nowadays celebrate this festival is totally different from the Yuan empire.

What do people do during this traditional festival?

Usually, people visit their friend, clients and families, and eat pomelos, moon cakes or go on a full moon watching. But nowadays , a must do event replaced the tradition- Barbecue. As I remember, there was an advertising by a soy sauce brand decades ago said that people like to visit their families, and barbecue outside their home, accompanied by full moon. This ad truly change the way Taiwanese celebrate the festival. Also, visit families is not the first priority anymore, young people tend to celebrate with their friends, high school classmates. In addition to this the sales of mooncakes still increasing every year, usually everyone have to eat moon cakes for a full week, and the calories of one mooncake is equal to a bowl of rice, which is really high.

Do you enjoy this traditional festival? Why? Why not?

When I was a kid, I really enjoy this festival, because I like barbecue, also I can play some traditional Chinese games such as Mahjong or dices with little gambling with my families.

On the other hand, when I was doing part time job in restaurant or hospitality industry, Mid-Autumn Festival was like nightmare, because all the staff don't have time to take a rest, they need to face hundreds of customers for a whole day(sometimes 3 or 4 days if there are continuous holidays on some years), and I don't have time to stay with my families, which was really disappointed.

I still like mooncakes and barbecue, but working on Mid-Autumn Festival? NO WAY.

Today has been a day filled with gratitude and joy, leaving my heart full of happiness and contentment.

I’m grateful for my friend’s invitation, which gave me the chance to visit Yulao Scenic Viewpoint—a place surrounded by natural beauty and tranquility. Walking through the forest, breathing in the fresh phytoncides, and feeling the gentle breeze on my face felt like a cleansing experience for both body and soul. Standing at the viewpoint, gazing at the endless scenery, I forgot all the worries of daily life and simply enjoyed the beauty of the moment.

A special thanks goes to the delicious stinky tofu I had today. Its crispy texture and unique aroma were a delightful treat for my taste buds. I also captured many wonderful moments in photos, preserving today’s smiles and scenery.

As someone who hasn’t gone on a trip or truly relaxed in a long time, today was undoubtedly a rare day of unwinding. I’m grateful for the small yet beautiful things in life, for my friend’s company, and for myself for stepping out of my comfort zone to embrace this day of nature and joy. I hope there will be more days like this in the future, bringing balance and healing to my mind and body.

Today, my heart is overflowing with gratitude.
