Some religious groups carry out animal release activities out of compassion, but in fact, such behavior will cause ecological problems. It was eye-opening that a group of people in Guangdong, China, “released” mineral water by the river for two hours. Some passers-by tried to dissuade them, but the other party replied, “I’m doing merit.”
According to Lu media reports, a group of uncles and aunts, about 3 or 5 people, brought several boxes of mineral water to “free life” by a river in Guangdong. Some enthusiastic citizens went to check and found that the manufacturing date of the mineral water was the latest, so Well-intentioned advice, but these people do not appreciate it, thinking that it will affect their sincerity and merit. It is understood that the group of people was released from 10 am to 12 noon, pouring bottles of mineral water into the river one after another.
After the news was exposed, it sparked a discussion topic, and netizens criticized them one after another, “How many unfortunate things have you done to release your life like this?” Does it damage merit?”, “What kind of weird behavior is this, even the mineral water can be used to release it, this is the first time I’ve heard of it.” There are also many people who are bitter, “So kind-hearted, how can you bear to breathe, are you not afraid of harming the microorganisms in the air?”, “Why? There is no life in pure water and mineral water. Why don’t you release the river water with various microorganisms? ”, “Let’s release RMB next time.”
In this regard, Mr. Chen, a staff member of the Guangdong Life Release Association, told Red Star News that “there are no organisms in the mineral water, and pouring mineral water does not belong to the scope of the release, nor does it belong to the research scope of the Association,” mainly to refuse the release of exotic species, especially It is a harmful invasive species, otherwise it may bear part of the criminal responsibility.
Mr. Chen added that the release association does not recommend fishing, fishing and other activities that are more destructive to the original ecosystem (to obtain released animals), and the time and place of release should also be selected well, because the survival rate of released fish in winter is relatively low. , so it is best to perform it in other seasons. When releasing fish, try to choose small fry instead of large or adult fish, because these fish may bring sudden changes to the ecosystem, and the growth of small fry is gradual.
