Coronavirus: Putting a spotlight on the global trade in wild fauna
Sun Bear rescued from The Animal world drug dealers in Indonesia
conservation experts say that the Corona Virus-a pandemic that probably originated on The Market sale of Wild Animals in China, is a turning point for curbing the worldwide Trade In specimens of Wild Animals to extinction, and the spread of the disease.
As Adam Peyman went fruits in a restaurant in Vietnam, in order to find a meal, he was shocked, Wild Animals , including the endangered species on The Menu , in addition to the traditional rice, noodles, fish and seafood. Sting ray, porcupine, softshell turtle, wild pig and Wild Goat were all in the offer.
"It was a bit of a surprise to these foods," Says the wildlife manager for The Animal protection organization Humane Society International. "But, these types of wild food is considered to be something of a Luxury . "
Feasting on exotic game has become A Sign of status and wealth in some Asian countries The Desire for The Animal world as a food or medicine is driving The Trade in Wild Animals , some obtained illegally, create the Breeding Ground for diseases and the opportunity for viruses to jump to Humans .
US-protest to the Animal Rights group, Peta"The consumption of Wild Animals , especially wild mammals, the diseases, the barrier on the species, poses quite a real threat to human health," Says Mr Peyman. "It is difficult to say whether these animals come from The Wild , legally or not, some of them had smuggled in And Then sold in these wet markets, as they are also called. "
Wet-marketsWet-markets have become a familiar sight in many countries in South-East Asia, particularly China. Sale of live fish, chickens and wildlife, as well as fresh fruit and vegetables, they have received their name from the melting ice, as well as for washing the floors, cleaning the blood of slaughtered animals.
Illegal Wildlife Trade in MyanmarWet-markets can be, "timebombs" for epidemics, Says Prof Andrew Cunningham , Deputy Director for science at the Zoological Society of London (ZSL). "This way, we are dealing with. Animals, As If they only Plunder our resources for ourselves - It Comes Back To bite you, and it is not a surprise. "
jump to manThe current Corona Virus pandemic, which claimed tens of thousands of people live, the Wuhan seafood market. Despite its name, The Market , the sale was much More Than fish, including snakes, porcupines, ROE deer and deer,
to spread After an initial cluster of cases associated with The Market , The Virus began dramatically in China, before you reach much of The World . The origins of The Novel virus are unknown, but it probably dipped into a bat, then make the jump to people about a different wild animal host.
scientists have for decades, the attention on the occurrence of human diseases that originated in animals, including Severe Acute Respiratory syndrome (Sars), Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (Mers) and Ebola.
the news of The New York-based Wildlife Conservation Society is clear: the ban on live animal markets, The Trade in Wild Animals , stop the Illegal trade and poaching of Wild Animals .
"this will Not only help prevent the spread of diseases, it is the address is one of the most important driver for the extinction of species," Says the company.
The Wildlife Conservation Society calls for a ban on Wild Animals consumptionIn The Wake of The First outbreak in Wuhan, China introduced the ban on all agriculture and the consumption of live wildlife that is to be expected that the Law in the course of this year. Thousands of wildlife farms raise animals such as porcupines, civets and turtles were shut down. But loopholes remain, such as The Trade in Wild Animals for medicine, Pets, and scientific research.
Then there are the traditional Chinese medicine industry, which is also used wildlife products. Recently, the Chinese government has agreed to apparently use.
activists worry these exceptions could be parts that pave the way for Illegal Trade In wild meat than in The Past with, for example, tiger and leopard body. So pangolin meat might still be available as The Animal , the balance can be used for medicine, and your nails as jewelry.
All eyes are therefore on the soon-to-be-changed wilderness-protection-Law -whether and how it would be in addressing these gaps.
In neighboring Vietnam, to rush to the government of the terminals by legislation on the Illegal Trade In specimens of Wild Animals on the street markets, and online. But some say it will not be easy to change cultural attitudes or for the enforcement of the prohibitions, if they are wet markets are part of The Local culture, with the belief that the meat is sold fresh and cheap.
supply and demandProf Dirk Pfeiffer from the City University of Hong Kong , Says The Real Problem is the demand is. "The People you don't care if it bred with Wild Animals or animals from The Wild , which is an important source of income for you. Do not press the U-Bahn, that is The Solution , so it must be a gradual Process . "
This is not the First Time that a pandemic has to focus on Trade In specimens of Wild Animals . 2002 Sars outbreak that started in China and claimed More Than 700 lives, was with the bats and mongoose-like civet cats, although The Source was never confirmed.
Asian civet in Banda Aceh ; The Mammals were said with SarsProf Cunningham, if we stop other pandemic in The Future , we must rather, on the causes and the effects. At the root of The Problem is the destruction of nature is to bring the animals and people in conflict.
"Even in the protected forests, the forests are Still There , but the wildlife is away from the frame, because they landed in the markets," he Says . ". And it's easy to point fingers, but it happens not only in China, it happens in many other countries, and also in the Western World . We like exotic animals, and many of these are wild caught and we're supposed to be in Our Own house in order. "
