Australia Plans To Kill 2 Million Cats
澳大利亚计划捕杀200万只猫
The Australian government plans to kill 2 million feral cats by the year 2020. The purpose is to protect some of Australia’s threatened native species. The announcement did not sit well with animal rights activists, including Brigitte Bardot. The former French model condemned the Australian government and called their plan “animal genocide”. Bardot argued that killing cats is cruel and violent. She also argued that the program would be useless since cats will continue to breed. Bardot and many other activists feel that the Australian government should spend their money on sterilization rather than eradication.
澳大利亚政府计划在2020年之前捕杀200万只野猫。目的是为了要保护当地物种免受伤害。而这一声明并没有得到动物权益保护者的认可,这其中包括碧姬·芭铎。前法国模特谴责了澳大利亚政府,称这一计划是“种族屠杀”。芭铎认为杀害野猫是残忍,暴力的。她还认为这一计划会徒劳无功,因为它们将继续繁殖下去。芭铎和其他保护者认为澳大利亚政府应该将资金投入到绝育中,而不是将它们大肆杀害。
