Foreword: On August 6, the Wildlife Protection Department of the State Forestry and Grassland Administration issued the "Letter of the Wildlife Protection Department of the State Forestry and Grassland Administration on Soliciting Opinions on the Adjustment of the Directory of Terrestrial Wild Animals under National Key Protection" (hereinafter referred to as the "Letter of Solicitation of Opinions"), soliciting opinions from the forestry and grassland departments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, as well as within the system of the State Forestry and Grassland Administration.
At present, the list of species involved in the draft of the new animal protection list has now been exposed, and the opinion draft includes a total of 772 species of terrestrial wild animals under key protection in China, including 185 species of first-level protected animals and 587 species of second-level protected animals, which is a large number of new species compared with the old version. And these new species for the entire pet market can be described as a stone stirred up thousands of waves, why say so?
Because many of the climbing pets circulating in the pet market are afraid of being "tragically killed", many climbing pets have been newly listed as national first-level/second-level protection. Of course, for us who play with worms, the core content of concern is naturally the change of the shovel, let's take a look at it!
Shovel Level 2 Protection List
The new second-class species of spade armor are: giant fork deep mountain shovel, lucky deep mountain shovel, Anda spade, Chinese spade;
Rhinoceros golden turtles have been newly added as second-class species: coarse-horned rhinoceros golden turtles, slender-horned you rhinoceros golden turtles, shin Xiaobian rhinoceros golden turtles, and the forked rhinoceros golden turtles have not been adjusted and are still protected for the second level;
Rhinoceros turtles and shovel armor upgraded to Level II protection
From the above list, the lucky deep shovel, giant fork deep shovel and Chinese spade of the family Shovel are upgraded, which were originally listed in the three protected lists; and the thin-horned Yu Rhinoceros Turtle and the Shin Xiaobian Rhinoceros Golden Turtle in the Rhinoceros Turtle also belong to the Upgrade from the Three, and the Rough You Rhinoceros Golden Turtle is a completely new species.
In addition, all species of the family Gibbanophyllaceae have not been adjusted and still belong to the second level of protection, the specific list is: Vietnamese arm golden turtle, Indian long-arm golden turtle, Fujian long-arm golden turtle, Zhaonuma long-arm golden turtle, Taiwan long-arm golden turtle, Gecai arm golden turtle, Yangcai arm golden turtle, including all arm golden turtle species that have appeared in China.
Personal Opinion:
Compared with the climbing pet, the change of the shovel is generally good.
The current revision of the animal protection list is the first time since the State Council promulgated the wildlife protection list in 1989, and it has been a full 30 years since they were separated. In the past 30 years, our society has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the old version of the animal protection list has obviously become outdated, and it is imperative to make adjustments.
Some other protected species of insects
And in the future, this adjustment will be the norm, in accordance with Article 10 of China's current Wildlife Protection Law, the list of wild animals under national key protection shall be formulated after a scientific assessment organized by the competent department for wildlife protection under the State Council, and the list will be adjusted every five years according to the assessment situation.
Postscript: At present, the approval of this new animal protection list is a high probability event! The deadline for the comment letter is August 26, 2019, after which it will be submitted to the State Council for review and approval, and if there is no accident, the new version of the directory will be published within this year.
