With the outbreak of new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19), the issue of wild animal consumption has once again become the focus of public opinion. 17 years ago, SARS spread from South China to 27 countries around the world, causing more than 8,000 infections. Today, the COVID-19 hit again. There was a lot of public outcry. Many people lamented how similar the epidemic was to that year. One of the reasons is that the viruses that caused the two outbreaks are similar is that the tight relationship with the game on the human table.

In the current severe epidemic situation, people hate the behavior of selling and eating game products, but some people still ignore the laws and regulations and ignore the severe epidemic situation.

Recently, the Qixingguan branch of the Public Security Bureau of Bijie City, Guizhou Province has investigated and punished an offender who poached and attempted to eat civet, the wild animal.

On February 8th, the local police station received reports from the masses that a villager often carried hunting tools these days, wandering in the mountains behind the village, suspected of poaching wild animals.

At present, there are still people committing crimes! The police at the police station immediately rushed to the village. After analyzing, researching, judging, and conducting a large number of visits and investigations on the existing clues, the man was finally arrested. At the same time, his hunting tools and the captured wild animals were seized.

After interrogation, the man confessed that he was at home due to the outbreak of the epidemic and had nothing to do, so he wanted to use his own hunter to catch a little "wild game." He installed the hunter in the woods of the back hills and illegally captured two wild animal civets, and then slaughtered them by himself for food. When the police warned him that killing wild animals was illegal and highly susceptible to the virus, he expressed guilt and regret.

At present, the case is being processed further.

The environment in which wild animals live is relatively complicated. The pathogens of many diseases spread during the hunting, transportation, rearing, slaughtering, storage, processing, and eating of wild animals, leading to the outbreak of various infectious diseases.

In the face of the epidemic, whether from a legal, ethical, health, or harmonious relationship between man and nature, humans should reflect predation and trafficking in wild animals must be eliminated! Reject game, start with everyone!

What time is it? They're still killing wild animals for food. "Pack some game for a change", is really bad taste, should taste the taste of the law.
