I Have a Safari Park - Chapter 712
The host said: “I never knew that bats have such an important ecological function! It seems that we really cannot judge animals by their appearance, and cannot judge their quality by their appearance alone.
But there is another very important question, that is, what should I do when I see a bat? Will they infect people with the new crown? “
The audience in front of the TV immediately listened attentively, and even took up pens and notebooks to take notes.
This is also the issue that everyone is most concerned about today!
Wang Yandao: “Bats are the second largest group of all mammals. There are more than 1,400 species distributed in the world. The species diversity is extremely high. The morphology and habits of different bats are very different.
Common bats on the seaside include Chinese Rhinolophus bats, Dog bats, Big-hoofed bats, Chinese Myotis bats, Fruit-tree-hoofed bats, Flat-headed bats and so on.
Don’t get excited when you hear of chrysanthemum bats, chrysanthemum bats generally live in mountainous areas, and caves are their habitat, and they will not enter the city.
Other bats and Chinese chrysanthemum bats are not the same species, or even the same family, and they are very far apart. For example, some people have seen dog bats in the park before. They eat fruit nectar, and the viruses they carry are naturally different. Big. “
Fang Ye said: “Just like rodents, there are our most common house mice, squirrels, bamboo rats, and even beavers. There are porcupines covered with spines. This is a world of difference.”
Wang Yan said: “Yes, so when you see them, you don’t have to be too alarmed. The bats we can see in the city are not the natural hosts of the new crown.
And even if the natural host of the new crown chrysanthemum bat, it does not directly transmit the disease to humans.
Because the genetic difference between humans and bats is very large, gene sequencing shows that although the virus in the infected person and the coronavirus carried by the Chinese chrysanthemum bat are very similar, there are still many gaps. They belong to two different viruses. .
It is more likely to be transmitted to people through an unknown intermediate host. “
Fang Ye smiled and said, “Moreover, there are actually very few bats in our city. If you can see one, it means you are lucky and lucky. This is something to be happy about.”
To sum up, chrysanthemum bats will not run into them when they live in the cave! The other bats are not carrying the new crown! It will not be directly transmitted to people! There are very few bats!
So there is no need to worry at all.
Hearing this, the audience breathed a sigh of relief.
The worry and dislike of bats can be said to have disappeared 90%.
The remaining bit of grudge on the appearance of bats, thinking of their ecological effects just mentioned, slowly began to accept.
The host asked: “So, don’t you have to do anything when you see a bat?”
Fang Ye said: “Yes, we have been with them for so long before, isn’t it okay?
Bats themselves are a natural existence and part of the ecosystem, there is nothing to be afraid of. As long as you don’t touch it or eat it, there is nothing wrong with it, and it’s best to do nothing. “
Wang Yan said: “Bats in cities generally live in holes and crevices in buildings. They come out day and night. They don’t meet people during the day and only come out at night.
Now the weather is cold, and bats have the habit of hibernating. When the temperature is low, they will enter hibernation. They will hang up and sleep. When the weather is warm, they will come out and move around. There are very few opportunities for contact with people, and they will also actively maintain with humans. distance.
To disturb them and drive them away may bring unpredictable risks. “
The host said: “Thank you for your answers, Mr. Fang and Yan Wang! If you have any questions, you can send text messages to ask questions?”
Someone just texted a question!
The staff below wrote the question on the slip, and passed a few slips.
The host read the note and said: “A friend of the audience asked, can crayfish be eaten? Can bamboo rats be eaten?”
This is the most concerned issue for foodies and businesses!
After the outbreak of the new crown, I heard that the original source was in the seafood market, and the sales of seafood have plummeted. Everyone is afraid to eat it for the time being.
Fang Ye replied, “You can eat anything with lobsters and fish! Don’t be too scared. If there is a virus, it can only be caused by the human virus sticking to it during transportation, whether it’s a crayfish or a fish. Vegetables and door handles are the same.
As for the confused bamboo rat, is this considered game? According to our general understanding, wild animals are those that live in the wild, right?
I don’t know what viruses and parasites are on my body. I’m not only irresponsible to myself, but also irresponsible to the society. It may also harm endangered wild animals. This is to be seriously condemned.
However, in our country’s legal definition, except for the common domestic animals and poultry such as pigs, cattle, and sheep, as well as fish, shrimps and crabs, all other animals are called ‘wild animals’.
So this time everyone heard a very funny word called artificially raised wild animals.
Bamboo rats, sika deer, porcupines, etc., are all animals that can be legally and commercially bred within the prescribed scope, but they are also called wild animals.
In fact, there are some artificially farmed economic animals that protect wild populations.
For example, sika deer used to be hunted in large numbers. For their antler venison, the number of wild sika deer is still very small. It belongs to the endangered level in our country. After the artificial breeding matures, the wild poaching will decrease.
There are also Siamese crocodiles, the skins of many luxury bags and wallets that were once on the verge of being suspected of being extinct in the wild, and now they are all farmed crocodiles. This is actually a favorable thing.
Now because of the epidemic, the situation is one-size-fits-all, and the situation is special. Wouldn’t it be helpless to kill one thousand mistakes instead of letting one go?
These artificially raised wild animals ~www.mtlnovel.com~ also have a problem. They can be raised, but there is no relevant quarantine standard.
In addition, there are some illegal businesses who pretend to be wild ones for breeding, and this is also a mixed bag. Anyway, this piece is still messy.
Therefore, what we have to do after this outbreak is to learn lessons, regulate the special breeding industry, and intensify the crackdown on people poaching and buying and selling wild animals. “
“I’ve been wondering what the **** this artificially farmed wild animal is! I had a fight with people about this before.”
“No matter what animal it is, it can only be eaten without quarantine!”
“Distressed for the croaking bamboo mouse, and for the bamboo mouse brothers! This is really unlucky.”
“Some people have a mentality. The more they eat game, the more they are capable and even proud of themselves. To protect wild animals, the most important thing to change is this concept. When everyone is ashamed of eating game, they will not There will be such a thing.”
The audience talked a lot.
