Last time we talked, many caged birds have been upgraded to protected animals, including "thrush", "wren brother", "lark" and other famous traditional caged birds, in fact, in the reptiles, there are also many animals upgraded to the national second-level or even first-class protected animals. In order to avoid friends stepping on the thunder when they have pets and going to the restaurant, they will encounter unnecessary trouble, so the snake boss will have to talk here again.
Due to the wide variety of amphibians and reptiles, we will do a few issues to explain, and today we will talk about turtles.
The latest wildlife conservation list in February this year:
There are more than 30 species involving turtles and turtles, some of which will surprise you, and listen to me in detail:
1. Flat-breasted turtle
In fact, there is a big opinion on the name snake boss, what turtle chest is not flat, why is it only me called flat chest? Or the original name "eagle-billed snake-tailed turtle" can highlight its characteristics more. This turtle is distributed in southern China and Southeast Asia, and also in southern Anhui. Although widely distributed, it only lives in mountain streams at higher altitudes, is fierce, can climb trees, but is rare, and due to the serious poaching, many places have been extinct in the wild. The environment is harsh, although it is a southern species, it is very afraid of heat, and the current artificial breeding technology is not too mature. In the past, the management was chaotic, some were managed when Appendix I, and some were protected when three were protected, and now the tone is set for the national second-level protected animals, which is deserved and very timely. The amazing thing is that a suffix has been added, and only wild populations, that is, legal farms can be raised according to the legal source certificate.
2. Burmese tortoise
This turtle is mainly distributed in Southeast Asia, a few places in the south of China are also distributed, its appearance is not proud, feeding is relatively simple, eating fruits and vegetables, artificial breeding in recent years is also becoming more and more mature, but due to the scarcity of wild numbers in China, it is set as a national first-level protected animal, which can also be understood. The breeding of first-class protected animals must be units and individuals with corresponding qualifications, otherwise the consequences are very serious.
3. Concave tortoise
Also known as the unicorn turtle, the back carapace has a deep gap, distributed in a few southern provinces in China and Southeast Asia. Extremely difficult to raise, at present, the world can be fed for a long time like a morning star, artificial breeding success is rare. It is said that like "Yunnan friends", they like to eat wild mushrooms, and they are not afraid of "lying boards" when they eat "red umbrellas and white poles". In the past, it was a national second-level protected animal, and now it is upgraded to a first-level protected animal, which is timely and necessary!
4. Four-clawed tortoise
Cute, hamburger-like, it is one of the very few species of tortoises in the northern desert. It is found abroad in areas where the Taliban are active, and only in Xinjiang. It is a veteran national first-class protected animal, sitting on the bottom of the beast. There is a special reserve established in the Tacheng area of Xinjiang to protect the four-clawed tortoise, which is counted as a "level transfer"!
5. Euclidean turtle
The turtle formerly known as the "toothed edge turtle" was split into 4 to 8 species or subspecies after being "scientifically studied", and the Euclidean turtle is only one of the splits, with an unremarkable appearance and difficult to raise. Why only upgrade it to a national second-level protected animal, and how many of its buddies? Fog!
6. Black-necked turtle
Once considered a subspecies of the turtle, it was later designated as a separate species. Once the price was speculated to the sky, hundreds of thousands of one, and now it has fallen dozens of times and no one wants it. The reason is that it is too able to give birth, a litter of 2 to 30 eggs. However, in the wild, the number is extremely rare, and the distribution area is also very narrow, so it is more scientific for wild populations to be listed as second-class protected animals.
7. Turtle
Please don't disbelieve your eyes, yes, it's this cargo! The most commonly seen native turtle on the market, its Chinese name is also called the turtle. It is true that the real wild turtle population has declined a lot, but to say that it is ranked as a national second-level protected animal is really confusing to the snake boss! Now that so many are released, if a fishing in the suburbs is mistakenly caught, do you say that it is a legal catch or a protected animal that is released? The most tormented may be the front-line law enforcement personnel, simply unable to operate!
8. Flower turtle
Similar to the situation of the turtles upstairs, the breeding technology is now very mature, and the number of stockpiles is huge. Some scammers carry the "construction site god turtle" that is peddled in the streets and alleys. Every year, millions of "sinners" are released to atone for their sins. Although the wild population is only listed as a national second-level protected animal, who can borrow a pair of golden eyes and fire eyes that can distinguish between "wild" and "breeding" by grass-roots law enforcement personnel?
9. Yellow-throated water turtle
Anhui Dabie Mountain area and southern Anhui are distributed, wild populations still have a certain number, breeding technology is relatively mature, the stock is also very large. It may be that the price is slightly higher, so there are not many cases of random release. It is more scientific to list wild populations as national second-level protected animals.
10. All species of the genus Closed-shelled turtle:
There are more than a dozen species of closed-shelled turtles, all of which are very rare, and some of them are basically extinct in the wild. (Why is it called a closed-shell turtle, the previous article has a special introduction)
1) Three-line closed-shell turtle
Also known as the money turtle, it was once speculated that the real price was higher than gold, but now it has fallen to the altar. Due to the huge stock of artificial farms, it is estimated that it will fall. The domestic wild population is almost extinct, and it is a second-level protection, which is considered to be a belated love!
2) Golden-headed closed-shell turtle
Anhui specialties, god-level pets, valuable, extremely narrow distribution, only distributed in two or three counties around Xuancheng in Wuhu, wild is said to be occasionally found, it is estimated that it is also more fierce and less auspicious. It is estimated that there are 800 to 1000 captive individuals in the world, and breeding is also difficult. The second level, which only protects the wild population, does not seem to be enough to show its noble status.
3) Yellow-rimmed closed-shell turtle
This is also the pride of Anhui, although the distribution is relatively wide, but in the eyes of players, the most beautiful are individuals produced in Anhui. At present, the amount of artificial breeding stock is also relatively large, but the wild poaching is serious, the urgent need to crack down, many poachers domesticate hunting dogs to catch the yellow edge, the efficiency is extremely high, often in a short period of time can catch the entire area of the turtle. Level two, science!
4) Bose closed-shell turtle
It is also a god-level pet, with a narrow distribution, almost extinct in the wild, and there are not many artificial stockpiles. Artificial breeding of individuals may not be a good thing to protect animals, and individual players and farmers may be more thoughtful and attentive than ambulance centers.
5) Pan's closed-shell turtle
It is still a god-level pet that is basically extinct in the wild.
6) Yunnan closed-shell turtle
Old objects that people thought had been extinct for decades had reappeared in previous years. Unfortunately, the distribution is extremely narrow, and the protection that has not yet come is now being arrested again. Only a few dozen surviving ones are in a few large households, and strange goods can be lived.
7) Zhou's closed-shell turtle
With only a few surviving, is it a valid species that may be questionable?
8) Malay closed-shell turtle
The closed-shell turtle, which is widely distributed in Southeast Asia, has a small wild population in China.
11. Ground turtles
Also known as maple leaf turtle, the smallest turtle in China. The difficulty coefficient of breeding and breeding is very high, there is no certain technology and conditions, and it is not to be touched at all. And it is not artificial or wild, all are national two, do not touch it without a certificate. To tell you the truth, there are no real artificially bred turtle individuals on the market at present! Another point we pay attention to, in the list, the number of "*" is attributed, the agricultural and rural departments (aquatic products) management, the problem is that the ground turtle is the basic terrestrial turtle, also play a "*", is how many meanings?
12. Spotted water turtle and four-eyed spotted water turtle
These two brothers, don't let me explain it in particular, everyone will see the picture and understand it. This brother is almost the same, the habits are similar, the flat-breasted turtle brother is almost the same, say breeding, there are also people who can breed some, say mature, and not very mature, the amount of each year is very small, the wild population is also precarious, included in the second level, the snake boss hands in favor!
13. Red sea turtles
The original name is "蠵 (pronounced suction) turtle", the word is too difficult to recognize, called the red sea turtle is more reliable. Everyone remembers that "green sea turtles are not necessarily green, red sea turtles are really red". Remember that no one can artificially breed turtles at present, all sea turtles are wild, even if they hatch small turtles, they are also hatched from the wild environment, all sea turtles are now facing habitat destruction, marine pollution, bycatch and other huge risks, urgently need our protection, so the snake boss supports all sea turtles as national protected animals.
14. Green sea turtle
As I said, green sea turtles are not necessarily green, there are also reddened individuals, the main difference is that the head is a little smaller, and the hind limbs are less than one finger.
15. Tortoiseshell
Tortoiseshell is a turtle with a parrot's mouth and teeth on the back shell, the beautiful back shell has always been the eight treasures of the x family, the mouth recites the mantra of not killing, random release, but collects rhino horns, ivory, tortoiseshell, coral, brick, snail... But for what?
Remember not just raising and buying tortoiseshells is against the law, buying this
This one
All of them are illegal, they used to be broken at the second level, and now they are promoted to the first level!
15. Pacific Turtle
The smallest turtles, generally dorsal carapace of no more than 60 cm.
16. Leatherback turtle
The world's largest sea turtle, unlike other turtles, is soft in shell. Docile behemoths, which feed on jellyfish, often swallow plastic waste by mistake to death. They are scarce and cannot be farmed, and they are early national protected animals.
17. Shrew
The old first-level protected animal may actually be an oolong, and in the past, it and the spotted turtle were an animal, and the first-level animal may be to protect the spotted turtle. In fact, this guy still has a lot in Southeast Asia, and the country may catch it as a turtle to eat. Apart from being very large, they differ from turtles (Chinese turtles) in that they do not have a long nose. There are artificial cultures in the country, and the number is not much.
18. Mountain turtle
This picture is not clear, right? It doesn't matter if you can't see it clearly, anyway, you can't recognize it, it's a large turtle, a little thicker than a turtle, and the neck warts are large and numerous. Veteran second-level protected animals, in recent years, artificial breeding technology breakthroughs, breeding is more successful. Therefore, only wild populations are listed as national second-level protected animals. It's a downgrade.
Of course, everyone must find out that this kind of "earth-wrapped sky" "American mountain Rui"
It is an exotic species ~ Florida turtle, non-protected, can be boldly eaten.
19. Spotted turtle
This does not need me to say more, the whole of China is only left in Suzhou Zoo that is about to grow old baby knots, it is not a level who is a level?
We are serious about doing popular science
Some of the pictures come from the web
