瑞士規(guī)定只養(yǎng)一條金魚違法

Many families will have been delighted to win a goldfish as a prize at a funfair, happily putting it in a bowl and feeding it every day after school.

許多孩子在游樂場(chǎng)贏得一條金魚當(dāng)獎(jiǎng)品后會(huì)很高興,開心地將它放進(jìn)碗里,每天放學(xué)后去喂它。

But they could have been guilty of animal cruelty without even knowing it.

但他們可能犯了虐待動(dòng)物罪而不自知。

Goldfish might get a bad reputation of being boring pets - and having rubbish memories - but they're more clued up than we realise.

金魚或許享有“無聊寵物”的壞名聲,記憶力也糟糕,但它們比我們意識(shí)到的還要喜歡群居。

In Switzerland, it has been illegal to own one solitary goldfish since 2008, when the country introduced a whole host of animal rights' legislation.

2008年,瑞士出臺(tái)了大量有關(guān)動(dòng)物權(quán)利的法規(guī)。從此,在瑞士單獨(dú)養(yǎng)一條金魚就是違法。

Why? Because fish are actually 'social' creatures. In the sea they swim in shoals, so it makes perfect sense that they would need companions.

你問為啥?因?yàn)轸~類實(shí)際是“社會(huì)性”生物。在海里它們成群地游動(dòng),因此它們需要同伴合情合理。

The Swiss government believes it is cruel to force them to live in isolation - but it doesn't just apply to fish.

瑞士政府認(rèn)為強(qiáng)迫它們獨(dú)居是殘忍的——而這一點(diǎn)不僅僅適用于魚類。

Other social creatures like guinea pigs and budgerigars are also covered by this legislation.

其他社會(huì)性生物,比如豚鼠和虎皮鸚鵡,也在法規(guī)保護(hù)范圍內(nèi)。

Switzerland even has companies which pair guinea pigs up with partners when the inevitable happens and one of the original couple dies.

甚至當(dāng)不可避免的事情發(fā)生,原伴侶死去時(shí),瑞士還有幫豚鼠重新配對(duì)的公司。

While allowing animals to keep each other company makes perfect sense, the country has other bizarre rules regarding pet ownership.

讓動(dòng)物互相有個(gè)伴兒是完全可以理解的,但該國(guó)還有其他養(yǎng)寵物的神奇規(guī)定。

Dog lovers having to take courses before they can own one - and then have practical training, according to techly.com .

據(jù)澳大利亞科技網(wǎng)站techly報(bào)道,汪星人愛好者在養(yǎng)狗狗之前必須上課,然后還要接受實(shí)際訓(xùn)練。

瑞士規(guī)定只養(yǎng)一條金魚違法

If you want just the one cat, you must let it outside so it can see other cats. If it's going to be kept indoors, then you've got to get two.

如果你只養(yǎng)一只喵,那就必須讓它出門見見同類。如果想把喵關(guān)在室內(nèi),那就必須養(yǎng)兩只。

Looking to purchase a solitary parrot in Switzerland? Forget about it. It'll be considered abuse unless you can get him a friend to talk to.

指望在瑞士單獨(dú)買一只鸚鵡?別想了。除非你給他找個(gè)能交談的伴兒,否則這就是虐待。

One thing's for sure, this will certainly make a few Brits feel guilty about their pet-owning habits.

可以肯定的是,這一法規(guī)一定會(huì)讓一些英國(guó)人因自己養(yǎng)寵物的習(xí)慣而感到愧疚。

英國(guó)首相府和外交部各養(yǎng)一只捕鼠官大概不算在內(nèi)。反正拉里和帕默斯頓這對(duì)死敵可以三天兩頭互撕,完全不會(huì)寂寞。相伴相殺是最長(zhǎng)情的告白啊~

地盤爭(zhēng)奪戰(zhàn):“首相貓”和“外交貓”打斗升級(jí)

瑞士規(guī)定只養(yǎng)一條金魚違法

英國(guó)唐寧街近來不斷上演激烈的打斗場(chǎng)面,而沖突的主角竟是新任外交大臣鮑里斯-約翰遜飼養(yǎng)的“外交貓”帕默斯頓,以及唐寧街10號(hào)的“首席捕鼠官”拉里。

瑞士規(guī)定只養(yǎng)一條金魚違法

英國(guó)《太陽(yáng)報(bào)》記者日前又拍到兩只貓?jiān)诠氽「浇蚣埽聊诡D發(fā)動(dòng)攻擊咬了拉里的臉,接著又迅速打了拉里一拳,拉里的領(lǐng)結(jié)也在打斗中被扯掉。但拉里也并非等閑之輩,馬上展開猛烈回?fù)簟?/p>

瑞士規(guī)定只養(yǎng)一條金魚違法

拍攝了這些照片的攝影師表示內(nèi)閣應(yīng)該對(duì)這兩只貓負(fù)責(zé),想辦法阻止他們繼續(xù)打架,否則這兩只貓的打斗有可能升級(jí),釀成“命案”。

瑞士規(guī)定只養(yǎng)一條金魚違法

這已并非兩只貓首度起爭(zhēng)執(zhí),上周帕默斯頓竟想偷溜進(jìn)唐寧街10號(hào)的首相官邸,被眼尖的警衛(wèi)發(fā)現(xiàn)后逮住將它送出門。不料帕默斯頓在街口轉(zhuǎn)角撞見拉里,雙貓互瞪對(duì)峙一番后,帕默斯頓才離開。
