At present, 2 crocodile tubes in Ruzhou, Henan have been handled harmlessly, and local teams have arranged professional teams to disinfect the park -related areas. Earlier, the park continued to pump the lake for nearly a month to capture crocodile birds.

Around these two "strange fish" enclosures, it was lively on the public opinion field for a few days. The relevant live broadcast screens showed that more than 30 million netizens watched online, which also attracted discussions on all parties. Some think that you don't have to do so big, find a fishing master to solve the problem. After pumping water for more than a month, wouldn't it be a loneliness in case you didn't find the "strange fish". Pump water to catch fish. Some also questioned, knowing that there are culverts, why not block the net in advance, and let the fish run away.

Some also believe that Ruzhou has never been so concerned. It has been searched for pumping fish and catching fish. Although it takes some oil money, from the perspective of the propaganda effect, this money is worth it. Some of them were onlookers from the "strange fish", and the invasion of foreign species attracted much attention. The popular science effect was good. It also thought that the money was worth it. At least let everyone know that this fish is not fun to raise a pet, must not be random, and should not be released at will.

It ’s more than a month to pump the lake and catch fish. Is it a big question? Not to mention the onlooker effect, the zero tolerance attitude of Ruzhou's invasion of foreign species is worthy of recognition.

There is nothing to do with biological safety, and catching fish is not a matter of playing. Biological safety is related to the overall safety of the country, and the "Biological Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" clearly states that biological safety includes "people's life and health and ecosystems are relatively dangerous and unprepared." Essence The law stipulates that no unit or individual shall be introduced, released or discarded without permission, and the offenders shall bear the corresponding legal responsibility.

According to the "2019 China Ecological Environmental Status Bulletin" issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, "more than 660 kinds of foreign invasion species have been found in the country. Among them, 71 types of natural ecosystems have caused or have potential threats and were included in the" List of Chinese Foreign Invasion Species. "." "It is worth mentioning that there are the most foreign invasive creatures from the Americas, accounting for 50.87%of the total number of species, and many invasive invasion of invasive species from the Americas is very invasive in China and extremely harmful."

The crocodile crickets are native to North America and are foreign invasive creatures from the Americas. Some natural water bodies that enter our country because they are free to release their behaviors will have a great threat to local aquatic animals.

Biological safety contains a state of survival of various types of animal and plant species. Any kind of security is broken and will eventually affect human survival and development. Therefore, the invasion of foreign species remains zero tolerance. It is necessary to deal with it together. Catching the fish is small, but it is also related to building a line of biological safety. It is not boring.

According to reports, many young people now choose to buy insects, reptiles, limb animals, etc. from overseas purchases as pets through online shopping, which will increase the possibility of foreign species to damage the local ecological environment.

Although the "strange fish" was arrested in Ruzhou, Henan, although the merits were successful and came to an end, after the end of the song, the invasion of foreign species was still long and there was no poverty. If this incident can make the concept of biological safety deeply rooted in people's hearts, like to raise foreign species or discard it at will, it can be used as a ring, and this fish will not catch it, and it will not be watched by lively.
