Hippos are fed plastic bags and uncivilized tourism continues to be banned during the holidays

The October long holiday is coming to an end soon. Many people are returning from their travels with a full load of things to do. While taking away the happy mood and beautiful scenery, everyone must pay attention to check whether they will I forgot to take away the trash. Almost every scenic spot will have reminders for everyone to take away their garbage or throw it into the trash can. In many zoos, there are also signs prohibiting feeding, but recently, hippos in Nanchang Zoo were fed plastic bags, which made many netizens very angry.

In the zoo, a man was feeding hippos with uneaten popcorn and plastic bags. There were many tourists around, but no one stepped forward to stop him. There were many people laughing on the sidelines, but some tourists were outraged by this behavior, so they recorded the video and posted it online. Many netizens expressed their dissatisfaction with the behavior of passers-by and the little boy. They were particularly distressed when they saw the hippopotamus being fed plastic bags, and they criticized the tourists on the Internet. In fact, this phenomenon is not only found in Nanchang, but is also common in other places.

Recently, the official Weibo of Nanchang Zoo also responded to this matter, saying that the man actually rode on the railing outside the hippo pool, then threw popcorn to the hippopotamus in the pool, and later threw the popcorn at the hippopotamus. A popcorn bucket with a plastic bag was thrown directly into the hippo's mouth, causing the hippo to swallow the plastic bag and popcorn bucket. What many netizens are most concerned about is the health of the hippo that ate the plastic bag. After inspection by the zoo's veterinarian, the hippo is not seriously injured for the time being and is still under observation.

Everyone knows that plastic bags will not decompose for hundreds of years even if they are buried in the soil. If they are eaten by animals, they can easily lead to their death. In some scenic spots, uneaten food by tourists is wrapped in plastic bags and thrown away. If it is eaten by stray cats and dogs, it will lead to death. Although the hippo's body is fine now, it will definitely feel uncomfortable for a while. I hope everyone will pay attention to their behavior when traveling and don't be an unqualified tourist.
