As legal experts have pointed out, "fostering" is illegal and is suspected of serious criminal offences. However, for a long time, the Department of Forestry of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and its affiliates have habitually “fostered” all kinds of rare wild animals that have been seized by forest police, customs and other law enforcement personnel to some domestication and breeding enterprises, used as seed sources, and even "paid seed source allocation" (this is actually illegal trading).

 

Recently, according to a survey conducted by CBCGDF volunteers across the country, in addition to a steel business company in Guangdong Province, a company in Zhangshu City, Jiangxi Province, a company in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Guangxi Academy of Forestry, as well as a company in Yunnan Province, the Department of Forestry of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region also delivered various national level protected wild animals to more enterprises through “fostering”, “source allocation” and “paid seed source allocation”. A company in Bozhou, Anhui, a botanical garden in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, a zoo in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, a snake breeding base in Nanning City, a crocodile technology company in Nanning City, a crocodile breeding base in Dongxing City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, etc., have received “fostering” of all kinds of rare wild animals.

 

At present, the CBCGDF volunteers' research for related seized endangered wildlife is still under further investigation, and more information will continue to be disclosed. It is hoped that this situation will attract the attention of relevant departments and immediately investigate.

 

The Department of Forestry of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region can donate a large number of pangolins directly to some universities or research institutions, while CBCGDF applies to participate in the rescue and conduct joint scientific research, but in a row over three years to apply for the pangolin research needs of a little skin hair, and even fecal secretions are not applied? So, the above list of these units (institutions), how do they get such a large batch of rare living wild animals, and how do they pass the administrative examination and approval, how to do it? The existence of such phenomena is not one day, not two days, why the relevant departments have been turning a blind eye, let it flourish, and where is effective regulation? Is that the hidden rule of the industry? Is it a corporatism, a gang, or some protect umbrella?

 

The CBCGDF Pangolins Protection Working Group hopes that the National Forestry and Grassland Administration will pay full attention to the illegal "fostering" of rare wild animals that have been seized everywhere and conduct investigations as soon as possible to avoid the all kinds of rare wild animals were inexplicably "disappeared" and "dead” after being rescued.
