The editor has something to say

Game is not only not delicious, but also more insecure. Wild animals have survived in nature for a long time and have become intermediate hosts for some bacterial virus parasites, not only the new coronavirus and SARS virus, but also the source of deadly infectious diseases such as Ebola virus, Nipah virus, and plague in foreign countries.

According to the data, bats carry more than 100 kinds of viruses, civets are easy to become an intermediate host for the spread of SARS and other viruses, and even our commonplace hares carry a variety of internal parasites. These viral bacterial parasites have formed a stable symbiotic relationship with their hosts, but their own pathogenicity is still there, and human intervention will inevitably lead to disasters.
