CCTV News: Recently, the news of Fuzhou Zoo Kangaroo killed and injured due to tourists smashing stones has attracted widespread attention. On the 19th, Fuzhou Zoo announced to the public the recent injuries to animals in the park. Since the end of February, kangaroos in the park have been attacked by tourists with stones and other items many times, causing one death and one injury.

00000000 photos provided by Fuzhou Zoo show that on the morning of February 28, several large rocks were thrown into the kangaroo display area. The 12-year-old female kangaroo had almost broken her left toe and could not move.

veterinarian Chen Xiaoli of Fuzhou Zoo Management Office said that the keeper was indoors and saw a stone thrown in from the outside, and then he immediately ran out to stop him. He was confronting the tourists, but the tourists did not admit it and then the tourists left.

Then, the veterinarian immediately treated the kangaroo wound and treated it with infusion. But the kangaroo did not improve and died two days later. To find out the cause of death, the veterinarian performed an anatomy of the kangaroos.

veterinarian Chen Xiaoli of Fuzhou Zoo Management Office said that during the dissection, it was found that its kidney was broken, and then a very large bleeding clot was about the size of a small brick. We determined that it was because of the internal bleeding caused by the stone that hit it, causing its kidney to rupture , and it caused its death.

Just less than a month after the kangaroo died, a similar incident happened again. A 5-year-old male kangaroo was also attacked by stones. Fortunately, he was only slightly injured and has recovered.

veterinarian Chen Xiaoli of Fuzhou Zoo Management Office said that the visitor's visit should be after 10:30 in the morning. That period should be after our keepers feed them. The animals are full. A time to rest. Many tourists came to visit. Maybe I want to say it. I want to see how kangaroos jump. So when the kangaroo is resting, tourists want the kangaroo to stand up and jump for the tourists to see, but when it is told to stop moving, they will use stones to smash it.

The Kangaroo Display Area of ​​Fuzhou Zoo does not have a glass wall, but instead uses a wooden fence about 1.5 meters high to separate visitors from the Kangaroos. At present, Fuzhou Zoo has applied to the superior department to install high-definition surveillance throughout the park to record uncivilized behavior of tourists and hold them accountable.
