Ancestors worked hard to domesticate animals and develop animal husbandry, and with the addition of technology in later generations, meat has been industrially produced, and ordinary people can eat meat for three meals.

However, there are always people who want to maverick, there are safe domestic animals, poultry meat do not eat, must eat what game.

This is good, a lot of human diseases, are eating games to eating out!

The biggest natural enemy of all animals is humans.

Human-raised pigs

The game is not so amazing

Why do some people want to eat wild game? There are three main reasons for this, the first is belief in prescriptions, the second is show off the rich, and the third is the hunt.

First of all, we know that a lot of charlatans will be shaking the name of Chinese medicine, and not a word from their mouths is in line with medicine.

These charlatans believe that the shape to complement the shape, eat what wild animals will complement what, such as Pangolin scales through the breast, rhinoceros horn to reduce fever, etc.

Bias is still really believed, they also think that these prescriptions are the wisdom of the old ancestors, is the traditional culture of our country, it is very speechless.

Under ignorance, many businesses are desperate to hunt wild animals and sell them at high prices to these ingrates.

Because of the expensive sale of wild game, another group of wild game eaters was born, who did not believe in any prescriptions but simply looked at the price of wild game, and these people wanted to show off their wealth by eating wild game.

Of course, there is a final kind of people, they are purely curious about what the taste of a certain animal, and what animal meat want to eat a bite, including rats, and cockroaches.

Only we can not think of, no they dare not eat, this kind of people through the eyeballs to gain attention, and then these concerns into wealth.

The game is not as nutritious as we think, a very simple truth is, wild animals are hungry for a meal and eat the last meal, not the next meal.

The poultry and livestock are taken care of three times a day, eat well, and sleep well, whose meat is more nutritious is not obvious.

What's more, wild animals are not safe.

How dirty is the game

Wild animals because they live in the natural environment for years, will be exposed to many germs, and parasites, so they have become a super culture.

If the poultry and livestock raised by humans are not quarantined, there will also be many parasites, such as what we often call "rice pork".

Rice pork is a kind of sick pig meat, pigs are parasitized by pig tapeworm after the growth of cystic pox, such pigs in the quarantine have been removed, and unscrupulous people pick up the packaging to sell.

Even pigs raised by people can be parasitized by parasites, not to mention the pigs in the wild, either rolling around in mud puddles all day long or shuttling in various wet environments.

Such even if a person goes in for two days, will be infected by various germs.

There is also a parasite that I believe is not unfamiliar to everyone, it is called the split-head larvae, the scientific name of Mann's iterated palace tapeworm split-head larvae, parasitic on a variety of creatures.

The main way for humans to get infected with the larvae is by eating frogs and snakes in the wild, especially those that swallow snake bile, which is simply swallowing the larvae.

After entering the human body, the larvae can burrow into the head along the blood vessels and make people suffer from epilepsy.

The larvae are also widespread in pets such as dogs and cats, so why is it not spreading among humans, instead of being infected only after eating wild game?

The reason lies in the fact that the larvae are treatable when they are in animals, and taking deworming drugs can effectively kill the larvae in animals.

Therefore, for the frogs, bullfrogs, and snakes in captivity, there are no larvae!

Who dewormed the animals in the wild? Naturally, there are a lot of parasitic larvae, specifically looking for the species that eat wild game.

In addition to parasites, there is nothing more frightening in wild animals than viruses, parasites from infection to the onset of disease in the middle of a period, if found early there is room for salvation.

The virus is different, it comes on strong, and people are likely to send it directly to the hospital before they have time to go.

Likewise, there are many bacteria in wild animals, bacteria many of which are common to both humans and animals, domestic animals can still have brucellosis, and wild animals' bacteria caused by the disease is even more.

For example, the plague bacillus, one of the largest infectious diseases in human history, wiped out nearly a third of the European population.

The plague bacterium is found mainly in rodents, the most diverse group of mammals in the world, and they are also the food of most animals.

Many animals also carry the plague bacillus after eating rodents, and if humans then consume such animals, then they too will be infected.

Many people who eat wild game seek freshness, so they rush to eat the meat before it is fully cooked, which gives a good opportunity for germs and parasites.

The greatest scourge of game in human history is probably AIDS.

Some speculate that the blood of orangutans and baboons was injected by the natives of Africa to give them strength.

Others have speculated that African natives at the time had indescribable affairs with primates that led to infection.

According to scientists' knowledge of the customs of the primitive tribes preserved in Africa, they would eat animals such as baboons or orangutans in an extremely rudimentary way, and there was likely a case of eating every cooked.

Scientists also did find the AIDS virus in chimpanzees, but with a slight difference from the virus in humans.

After comparison HIV entered the human body and mutated, after which it kept mutating and could mutate more than 20 times in a day.

This is the scariest thing about wildlife viruses entering the human body because many viruses grow on animals all right, they have evolved in concert for tens of thousands of years.

But once the host is changed, the virus is new to the world and does not know the rules, it will strike harder, so the new host can not stand to travel serious problems.

For example, also in Africa, living in a fruit bat, their size can grow to about a pound, Africans caught eating, result infected with the Ebola virus.

The Ebola virus was originally parasitic on these fruit bats, and after tens of thousands of years of concerted evolution, it has become compatible with the fruit bats, but when it runs into humans, it becomes an infectious virus with a 95% fatality rate.

There is also the SARS virus from bats, whose original host is the Chinese chrysanthemum-headed bat, although it is not actively transmitted to humans by the chrysanthemum-headed bat.

The chrysanthemum-headed bat first infected the fruit civet, making it the intermediate host, after which the civet was eaten by humans as a game, and so this virus came to humans.

Wild animals grow so big that they are not grown specifically to be eaten by humans, and no one can guarantee their cleanliness and hygiene.

Ancestors put a lot of effort into domesticating animals just to get easier meat without having to risk hunting, and as a result, tens of thousands of years later, some people went back to their ancestors.

This is too "criminal"!

Our laws protect many wild animals, the more those who want to eat, the higher the level of protection.

Because it is because hunting and killing, will lead to the reduction of their numbers, the game ate, and the bottom of the jail.

Some people may ask, how should we be able to avoid accidentally eating wild animals?

First of all, are called wild animals, it is natural to live in places far from humans, and the average person can see the number of wild animals in this lifetime, which can be counted on one hand.

Secondly, the people who sell a wild game to make a profit, can't wait to tell you that this is a wild game, to stimulate you to buy before eating will already be told to eat the content.

The last is the reality of life, do not eat meat from unknown sources, go to the regular way to buy meat, as long as the market is sold in large regular meat, are legal quarantine procedures, will not eat out of what disease.

For the sale and purchase, the slaughter of wild animals in stores and restaurants, you can expose the law.

Do not risk your life for the sake of a momentary taste. We have so many meats to choose from, why should we risk being infected by germs and parasites to eat wild game?

Our ancestors domesticated so many animals, eating well is the best respect for them, do have nothing to do to eat game, this is too "criminal"!

Refuse to buy, sell and eat wild animals

Wild animals live more harmoniously in nature, not on the dinner plate.
