Jimu News commentator Wu Shuangjian
On the morning of May 18, a number of residents told Jimu News that the wild Siberian tiger "Wandashan No. 1", which had broken into the village more than 20 days ago, was released into the mountain forest at the Dongxing Forest Farm in Muling City, Heilongjiang Province. (According to The Jimu News on May 18)
The results were satisfactory.
More than 20 days ago, on April 23, the wild Siberian tiger broke into a village in Mishan City, Heilongjiang Province, causing minor injuries to one person. After much cooperation, the tiger was captured and rescued. Today, its physiological indicators are normal, there is no risk of abnormal behavior and disease, and it is released to nature.
Tigers are beasts of prey after all. Looking back at the beginning, the way it attacked people fiercely in that video really brought people fear. After it was captured, its fate concerned the hearts of the people. Some people say that if they hurt people, they can't put them back, they can put zoos so as not to harm people again. Some experts advocate that it return to nature as soon as possible, and that is its home.
Undoubtedly, the relevant departments made a rational and correct decision.
Because the Siberian tiger has always struggled on the endangered line, every wild Siberian tiger is a precious fire for the population. There is also evidence that siberian tigers in captivity have little chance of returning to the wild. Its fate cannot and should not end within the walls of the courtyard, its home is in the forest, it is the king of the forest, it should return to the forest.
However, protecting wild animals is easier said than done, especially when animals compete with people for land, animals harm livestock, and animals harm humans, and the relevant departments will encounter great pressure. It is conceivable that if this tiger had caused the death of mankind, then its fate would have been more tortuous, and the ending would not have been so complete.
This also raises a topic, in the current situation of improving the country's ecological environment, this kind of conflict will only increase, and it should also be prepared in time.
Coincidentally, on the day of the release of the tiger on May 18, the Jimu News Push reported that it was also in Heilongjiang, and at noon on the 16th, an adult brown bear bit a cow weighing a thousand pounds, and the owner of the cow was only about 50 meters away from the bear.
How to coexist peacefully with people such as bears, leopards, and tigers is a subject and a difficult problem.
On the one hand, we cannot require the beast to have the same moral consciousness as someone and be able to regulate its own behavior; on the other hand, we must protect wild animals, but also protect people's property and life safety.
This requires us to use the governance advantages of the grass-roots society, as well as real-time monitoring and other means, to give villagers enough time to warn each other, to help each other in time, so that they are not harmed; at the same time, we must also improve the compensation mechanism, timely rescue of damaged farmers and personnel, to relieve them of worries; finally, it is advisable to set up a protected area to give the beast more space for activities, while limiting the scope of activity of the beast.
It is gratifying that Jimu News mentioned in the report on the release of tigers that the staff of the forest farm and the local residents are relatively calm and calm about releasing the tigers to the mountains, and this attitude is worthy of recognition.
This, perhaps, is the attitude that each of us should have.
