Earlier, the Nanchong Agricultural and Rural Bureau departments responded to the cover news that the relevant departments were testing whether the great white shark was larvae or adult, and evaluated its value, which involved the final case result.

At present, the account of Millions of Fans on a short video platform has been banned, and the video involved has also been removed. Her account IP is located in Sichuan, and some of the previous videos also showed that her permanent activities were in Nanchong, Sichuan.

The positioning of "Timoko" seems to be a broadcast of a broadcast. In addition to sharks, she also shot a video of 30 catties of golden doll fish. Crocodile, crocodile turtle, ostrich legs, etc. have also appeared in her videos.

Great White Shark is "rare than tiger"

"For this matter, some popular science bloggers and volunteers who are particularly familiar with fish have done relevant analysis. From the results, I think people with normal identification ability should be able to distinguish the shark and the shark and the anchor. The difference between the Great White Shark. "He Xin, an associate researcher at the Shanghai Nature Museum, told China News Weekly.

He Xin said that Great White Shark is the top predator of the marine ecosystem, so its position in the ocean, including the importance, is also the most significant, but the number of predators in the ecosystem is decreasing step by step. For a long time, people's killing of sharks and the pollution of the entire marine ecosystem also includes the depletion of fishery resources, which has also led to the scarce state of great white sharks.

How endangered the Great White Shark? According to Science Network, in 2010, scientists have found that there are currently less than 3,500 Great White Sharks in the global ocean, "this makes it rare than tigers." This also means that only a few sea areas in the world can discover the long -term existence of great white sharks. In July of this year, Xinhua News Agency quoted Agence France -Presse reports that at present, the number of global big white sharks is labeled about 300.

According to He Xin's view, the incident of "Timiko" eating Great White Shark objectively reflects the lack of people's awareness of marine protection of animals. More often as a resource that can be obtained at will, or endless. He said that for the creatures in the ocean, even if they are in a relatively rare state like a big white shark, everyone may not be familiar with it. More often, they think of them as a food.

"Great White Sharks are rare in daily life. Although they will appear globally and China also occasionally discover, the public does not understand because it is not seen in daily life." Zhou Zhuocheng told China News Weekly that in fact, most sharks are not listed as protective animals, that is, sharks, which are the big white sharks, whale sharks, and sharks are involved in China. Other types are in China. It is a suspended approval. (There are research statistics, the current species of sharks or more than 300 species) He Xin also listed a phenomenon. In recent years, due to the epidemic cause, for the phenomenon of eating odors, catching wild animals, or even haunting or broadcasting on land. It has disappeared, but the phenomenon of killing sea animals and abusing seafood still exists.

He said that this may also caters to the audience's psychology. Many people feel that there is no problem and did not realize the state of these marine animals.

Zhou Zhuocheng believes that the public has insufficient awareness of wild animals other than large beasts. "And the considerable proportion of seafood in our daily life is actually wild animals, but there are not many types of protection involved. Education still needs to be strengthened. "

Reporter: "This is a crime crossing the province together"

Behind the "Timoko" rollover, it comes from the reports of some netizens. Earlier reporting this was a Mr. Q on Weibo, who told some details to China News Weekly.

On the morning of July 14th, someone in the group where Mr. Q was located sent a relevant video screenshot. "I found the anchor 'Temu'. According to the video details and the feedback of the group friends, it was confirmed to be a big white shark." Except for the platform report On the afternoon, he organized a group of friends to contact the Nanchong Fisheries Bureau for telephone reports.

According to Mr. Q, according to the anchor's IP address "Nanchong City, Sichuan Province" and "Going home" in eating Great White Shark videos, he confirmed that the anchor was a big white shark consumed in Nanchong, Sichuan. "And Sichuan lives in the inland, it is clear that the source of this illegal chain is extended from a province of coast to the inland Sichuan. This is a crime crossing the province together."

"You need to find the coastal suppliers behind this incident and directly contact the local fishery administration. You know where the supplier is, only the anchor himself and his group." Mr. Q said. To this end, he planned the action plan with 5 group friends.

The plan for the operation is that they are fans who are the anchors of the anchor, and they are camouflage as buyers from other plants or children who want to taste shark meat.

In order to go online with the anchor, you need to rush to the list of the live broadcast room. The plan was very smooth. Mr. Q said that because the anchor has been selling the products that the fan groups do not want, the first ten of the first list left the live room. Essence However, at this time, it appeared. Due to some sounds that questioned the "consumption of big white sharks", the anchors were broadcast early.

That night, they confirmed the location of the seafood store through the map. In the case of temporarily losing clues, they decided to ask for help from the relevant departments of the most likely Bohai Rim region.

"On the evening of the 15th, I initiated for help with netizens on Weibo under Weibo." Mr. Q said that the blog post has a great response and the reading volume is close to one million. Later, they provided the detailed address of the aquatic stores to the relevant departments of Nanchong City and continued to track the incidents.

Mr. Q introduced to China News Weekly. In fact, there is only one shark in my country that can be cultivated artificially, that is, dog sharks, because of its small size. Relatively speaking, the number of large white sharks is scarce and its body shape is huge and conspicuous.

"Big white sharks are not so easy to get, especially now the fishing period is still banned." Mr. Q told China News Weekly that he said that the great white shark in the video should be a young shark, but even the young shark body is more than an anchor. big. When the anchor had just transported the Great White Shark, he covered it tightly with a very tight package. "It shows that they were intentionally concealed, not completely unknown."

Mr. Q said that this incident can wake up some people who have a chance and try to get rid of the criminal law. At the same time, more people can realize how severe the current situation of aquatic wildlife protection is.

Lawyer: You need to determine the value of Great White Shark

The "Timoko" edible state protection of animals is a favorable fact. Whether it is "knowing the law and committing the law" is still to be investigated by the official department. So, what crime can she be suspected? If it is argued that it will affect the qualitative and sentencing of the case?

Lawyer Fu Jian, a lawyer of Henan Yulong Law Firm, introduced China News Weekly that in order to attract the attention, the Internet celebrity blogger has won traffic, and the video of boiled and barbecue big white sharks has been suspected of illegal. Great White Shark is a national second -level protection animal. The Appendix II of the International Trade Convention II of Endangered Wild and Plant species is a precious wildlife stipulated in the criminal law. In addition, the Great White Shark did not have the situation of eating artificially breeding Great White Sharks in the "Artificial Breeding National Key Protective Protection of Aquatic Wildlife".

According to Fu Jian, this case needs to determine the value of the Great White Shark, so as to determine whether the blogger applies to the "serious plot" or "plot is particularly serious" and other torture circumstances.

He said that the adults and larvae of Great White Sharks are different in value identification. According to the "Explanation of Several Issues on the Application of Laws for Destruction of Wild Animal Resources Criminal Cases", illegal acquisitions, transportation, and sale of precious, endangered wildlife and its products for illegal acquisitions, transportation, and sale are valued at more than 2,000 yuan. For less than 200,000 yuan, in accordance with the provisions of Article 341 of the Criminal Law, it shall be sentenced to five years in prison or detention of precious, endangered wildlife crimes, and fined. According to the "Standard Value Standards for Aquatic Wildlife", the benchmark price of the shark is 20,000, and its protection level coefficient of the national secondary protective animal is 5, and the valuation of adult sharks is about 100,000 yuan.

Fu Jian said that if the big white shark that is not known is a national second -level protected animal, and if the purchase channel or other evidence cannot prove that the crime is intentional, it will not constitute the crime of illegal acquisition of precious and endangered wildlife. But I do n’t know how to eat Great White Sharks. "If the consumers only know that they are fish instead of big white shark meat, the participants only recognize that they are ordinary meats. Shark meat can be considered as appropriate or punished by lightly. "
