The endangered species tortoise in the zoo has bamboo baskets on its back. Why are you doing this?

We humans have never been the only creatures on the earth since ancient times, and we have never been the masters of the earth. With the development of science and technology, our living standard and quality of life are getting higher and higher. However, have you noticed that while we are accelerating the industrialization process, how many creatures are occupied by us, so that their numbers are drastically reduced or even extinct?

Sukada turtle, also known as Sukada elephant turtle and Sukada turtle, is a very active turtle. The carapace is high, the skull is short, the scalene bone is not connected with the parietal bone, and the carapace is firmly connected by the nail bridge. Strong limbs, able to live in a dry environment, is a national endangered protected animal.

During the National Day this year, there was a news that exploded the circle of friends. The back of Sukada turtle raised in Nanning Zoo was stuck by the staff with a bamboo basket. According to the breeder's explanation, this is to prevent the Sukada turtle from eating foreign objects thrown by tourists by mistake, but the discerning person knows at a glance that this is not to let the turtle eat foreign objects by mistake, but obviously to collect money with a photo frame! Moreover, according to tourists, the living environment of Sukada elephant turtle in this zoo is not satisfactory, and the surrounding area can be described as dirty and messy. The water in the pool is basically black. At present, the garden has taken measures to remove the bamboo basket on the turtle's back and is making further rectification.

This is just a small Sukada turtle, but through this incident, we can't help thinking about how to better protect endangered animals and plants.

The first point is to increase publicity. Ordinary people probably know about protecting animals, but they are indifferent to plant protection. Even if they know, they don't know which ones can dig and which ones can't move. This requires our relevant units and professional departments to publish a list, detailing the biological names, ecological characteristics, geographical distribution and protection levels of protected species, and "nip in the bud". The main job is to prevent people from breaking laws and regulations before the promulgation of laws and regulations, rather than punishing them afterwards. This will not help, because some animals and plants may die as a result.

Second, while publishing the directory and detailed information, we should also publicize it in the main distribution areas. Take measures such as brushing slogans and sending messages to attract volunteers and develop voluntary propagandists among local people, widely publicize and supervise local people who lack information, raise awareness of protection and avoid breaking the law without knowing it.

Finally, strengthen scientific research and carry out rational development. In view of wildlife resources, we can't just protect them in fences. We need to invest human and financial resources in scientific research, expand the number of species through research and development, and use science and technology to reproduce.
