Recently, the reporter learned from 12306
China Railway Customer Service Center
A 12306 applet is being carried out on a project called
Survey of the "Questionnaire on Pet Transport for Railway Passengers and High-Speed Rail".
The reporter inquired and found
The questionnaire mainly involves:
The owner's pet situation, the owner's pet travel needs and other issues
meanwhile
The questionnaire also collected opinions from non-pet owners
Some are for it and some are against
There is a lot of controversy about pets on high-speed rail
For a long time, many pet owners have been concerned: are pets expected to board the high-speed rail with their owners? With the release of the questionnaire survey of the railway department, this topic has set off a wave of discussion in the pet breeding circle.
Pet owner Guangcheng told reporters that he raised two pet cats, every Chinese New Year, you need to send pets to the foster care center in advance, not only the price is high, but also they are not at ease, if the pet can board the high-speed rail, he will choose to take the pet home with him, reduce the trouble of raising pets during the festival.
There are not a few owners who have the same idea as Guangcheng. On the Internet social platform, many pet owners also expressed their expectations for this: "Great! It's not that much trouble to bring the cat home, even if it's in a cage! ”
There are also many netizens who clearly oppose bringing pets on the high-speed rail.
Netizen Fangfang told reporters that there are many hidden dangers for pets on the high-speed rail, and for safety reasons, she is unwilling to share a carriage with her pet.
In addition, some netizens believe that most of the routes with pets are popular routes in economically developed areas, and the tickets are not enough, and they have to be divided into pets: "Bringing pets occupies more space, so it is not recommended!" ”
You can't get on the high-speed rail, but you can do consignment
The railway sector already has relevant rules and regulations
The reporter inquired about the information and found that in addition to guide dogs, at present, whether it is ordinary rail or high-speed rail, pets cannot follow passengers to board the carriage. However, the relevant departments also said that although the railway department does not have special rules and regulations for "pet transportation", it has a relevant consignment system for live animals. As long as the pet meets the regulations, it can be checked or escorted smoothly.
So, which pets can be checked or escorted?
1. Pets must have a quarantine certificate.
2. Beasts, snakes, scorpions, centipedes, bees, etc., which can actively attack and harm people, are not allowed to be carried (except for police dogs and animals designated for transportation in the transport order).
3. Fish fry, silkworm seeds and animals that need to be raised on the way must be escorted, and the escort person is responsible for the safety of the animals. For animals that do not need to be raised on the way, the transportation distance is more than 200 kilometers, and someone must be sent to escort them; If the transportation distance is less than 200 kilometers, the shipper can also handle the consignment if he proposes not to send someone to escort the transportation.
4. The acceptance personnel of the station business department should carefully review the escort conditions, confirm that the transport packaging of the escorted animals is suitable for the nature of the goods and the transportation conditions of the luggage car, and if the escort conditions are met, the escort should be educated on escort safety and publicize the escort instructions. It is strictly forbidden for the escort to bring lighters, matches, flammable and explosive and other dangerous goods into the station, and inform the escort to take necessary measures to prevent animal excrement from defacing the vehicle and other bags.
