射杀结束后,村民们聚集起来把虎肉分食。但是更骇人听闻的事此地的非法野生动物贸易及其猖獗。有人声称虎皮被卖给了一个来自Assam印度邦的商人,售价为1.5lakh 卢比。 (wiki了一下,lakh是印度人用的计量单位,1lakh是100000,也就是说售价为15万卢比,算了一下大概是3333美元。)
一个来自于这个Namuk村子的目击者说:“他们肯定原本是去打别的小型猎物,但是正好遇见了这只老虎,于是将其杀死。狩猎发生在距离Along 30公里的地方(没google到Along是哪里)。正如你在照片上看到的,这是一只体重很大的虎,四个人无法平稳地抬起。老虎是被枪所射杀的。老虎皮被卖给了一个来自于Guwahati的商人。虽然当地的野保官员总是谈及对偷猎的惩罚,但是有关野生动物的犯罪仍然频发。现在是猎鹿的季节,大量的鹿被射杀。”
这个是过去一年中第三次发生猎杀老虎的事件,但是这是唯一一次有照片证据记录的事件。
音频中间记者所说的大多数与上面文字新闻重复。
译者:我工作同事中不乏几位印度同事,和他们谈起印度的老虎保护区现状时,他们都说印度老虎的现状岌岌可危,偷猎猖獗无法被禁止,根本不像纪录片里说的情况那么好,不出数年野生虎在印度的命运也将前途未卜。看来所有国家面临的野保前景都是一样的,没有经济收益,纯公益性的保护是很难支撑下去的。
原文:
Villagers gathered around the tiger after the kill. The meat was then consumed by the people but even more disturbing is the information of a possible wild life trade racket flourishing in that area.
The skin of the tiger was allegedly sold to a certain businessman from Assam for 1.5 lakh rupees.
“They must have gone for some small animal hunt and came across
this tiger and killed it. It is about 30 km from Along. It was a
heavy animal, even four persons could not carry it properly, you
may have seen the picture. Gun ammunition was used to shoot. The
skin was sold to some trader from Guwahati at Silapathar. Wildlife
authorities talk about penalties but wildlife crime is going on.
This is the season of deer hunting and deer is being hunted
regularly,” said Tapak Kato, an eyewitness from Namuk.
In the last one year this is the third incident of tiger hunting in the area but the first time that there was photographic evidence.
