Jiangsu man caught 8,000 toads and made a profit of nearly one million. What harm does catching toads do to the local area?
Some time ago, Sichuan cracked a case of "illegal poaching of wild toads". It is reported that at the beginning of this year, Yao from Jiangsu heard that toads can be sold for a lot of money, so he went to Sichuan and started this business. With a recycling price of 100 yuan, the high price attracts local villagers to help catch toads, and then they extract "toad cakes" from them and sell them, making a profit of nearly one million yuan in a few months. Speaking of which, everyone knows about toads, because they are a relatively common animal in the wild, and because of their ugly appearance, people also call them "toads". Therefore, after Yao and others were arrested and brought to justice, many netizens were also curious, why is it illegal to catch "toads"? Where is the problem?
Are wild toads also protected animals?
Wild toads are indeed protected animals in my country, because they have economic value, scientific research value and ecological value, so they belong to the "three national protected animals", and at the same time, toads are full of treasures, especially " Toad Su” has attracted a large number of criminals. For example, in June of this year, Shanghai Chongming arrested a couple who were stealing wild toads. At that time, the public found that the two of them were destroying the ecology in the grove by the roadside, so they reported them to the local police. After the scene, it was found that the couple had illegally captured 121 wild toads for the purpose of collecting "toad cakes" for profit. So, what is "toad cake"? It is a kind of precious Chinese herbal medicine, which belongs to a kind of secretion of the toad. As early as the Tang Dynasty, its medicinal value was recorded in the classics of traditional Chinese medicine. From a seasonal point of view, the summer and autumn seasons are the best times to collect "toad cakes". Therefore, since the beginning of summer this year, many places in my country have also caught criminals who have poached wild toads. And now the price of "toad cake" is soaring, and the market price has reached 40,000 to 50,000 yuan per catty. Even when the price of "toad cake" was relatively cheap in the past, it was nearly 20,000 yuan per catty. Naturally, this has created A black industry chain related to wild toads. In addition to "toad cake", there are other treasures on toad's body, such as "toad clothes", which can also be sold for 8,000 yuan per pound. What is "toad clothes"? It is the skin shed by the toad. In the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, it is also a kind of precious Chinese herbal medicine. Chinese medicine believes that it has high medicinal value. However, if the "toad clothes" are picked up in the wild, like "toad cakes", it is not against the law. After all, the toad leaves it after shedding its skin. If it is not picked up by people, it will become a natural phenomenon "waste" in . It's not easy to pick up "toad clothes" in the wild. This is because a "toad clothes" shed by a toad weighs only 0.2 grams. What is the concept? If you want to raise a pound of "toad clothes", you need to pick up at least 2,500 pieces. However, this is simply unrealistic in the wild. Therefore, although there are many treasures on toads, the ones that are valued by criminals are still "toads". After all, it is easier to obtain and more profitable.So why protect wild toads? What's the use of this?
Although toads and frogs are similar, toads are also more capable of surviving in the wild, they can leave the water, travel farther, and stay away from water for longer periods of time. Therefore, this also allows toads to eat more pests, especially in agricultural production, toads contribute more than frogs, but because they are not as beautiful as frogs, people always tend to ignore them its value. I believe that many friends have found that the number of frogs and toads in the wild is much less than in the past. This is actually because of human capture and the impact of environmental pollution on them, so that although they are not at risk of extinction, they are equally They need to be protected, after all they are very beneficial "ecological guardians". And as early as more than 20 years ago, wild toads have become protected animals. If you encounter them in the wild, don't think about them. It is also necessary to remind everyone that toads are not edible, because they are almost all poisonous. As early as in ancient times, they were called "one of the five poisons", and the danger can be imagined. Maybe some friends will say, so why do restaurants have toads? This is because the artificially-bred toads are low in toxicity and can be eaten after treatment. However, if you want to steal a few wild toads in the wild, then there is a high probability that the poisoned toads will not be able to escape, and they will be subject to penalty. Therefore, whether it is from the perspective of protecting animals, or from the perspective of protecting the ecological environment, and not eating wild game, we should not harm wild toads. If you see someone doing this, then don't hesitate to call the police immediately , so that these criminals can be severely punished.- Last：Drought in 10 provinces, high temperature exceeded 45 degrees Celsius, experts: the worst is yet to come
