Capítulo 161: Chapter 161: Cute and pitiful!
Fang Ye quoted from the classics and said: "For a long time, the owl was regarded as an inauspicious symbol among the folks. It is a kind of bird that makes people fear and hate. It is called'night owl'. Prejudiced and derogatory.
Something like 'night owls enter the house, good things do not come', 'Wu Dalang plays night owls, whoever plays what birds', 'is not afraid of night owls barking, just afraid that night owls laugh'.
There is a legend about the laughter of owls. When a chronically ill person hears the owl laughing at the window, it is actually counting the eyebrows. When the eyebrows are counted clearly, the patient is about to die.
There is such a paragraph in "Swordsman", saying that Linghu was seriously injured. When Lu Dayou was taking care of him at night, he suddenly heard an owl crying outside. He was panicked. He immediately dipped his finger in some saliva and rubbed it on Linghuchong's eyebrows. It's so hard to count the owls.
Lu Xun also said, 'I sometimes never want to win in the world of speech, because my speech is sometimes horrible, reporting bad luck. '"
"Lu Xun: I really said that!"
"I used to think that night owls refer to cats that are springing up at night. Turns out they refer specifically to owls."
"I heard the legend of owl laughter from my grandma!"
"66666!"
Fang Ye continued: "The owl will be so disliked by people and regarded as a symbol of inauspiciousness. One is because it is really mysterious. It always hangs out in the wilderness when the moon is black and the wind is high, making a screaming cry and eating some People naturally associate things like rat carrion with negative images such as disease and death.
Moreover, owls also have a habit. After they eat food, they will spit out indigestible bones and fur after a period of time. The spit out is a lump, which is called a food lump. Many carnivorous birds of prey actually have this kind of spitting behavior.
The ancients couldn't understand this weird behavior, so they got their brains open, thinking that the owl had eaten his own mother.
Think it is an unfilial, vicious, cruel bird!
Especially in the Han Dynasty, where filial piety was promoted, owls were considered unfilial birds, and you can know how miserable they are.
The interpretation of Xiao Wen Jie Zi is: 'I'm not a filial bird. At the end of the day, catch the owl. From the bird head on the wood. '
It means that such an unfilial bird, if you see it during the day, you have to grab it and cut off its head, and hang its head on a tree to warn its kind.
The "Han Gong Yi" even records, 'the summer solstice, give a hundred officials owlet soup, you are dying of it. '
Said that the emperor would give the minister the soup made by owls and encourage everyone in the world to catch it and eat it.
I would like to remind everyone that all wild animals carry various pathogenic bacteria and parasites. Remember not to eat game! "
Netizens are stupid!
"Damn, it looks like an owl is so miserable!"
"It's more wronged than Dou E. He carried a cauldron of filial piety on his back for no reason, and was killed in various ways."
"Fortunately, there is no such superstition now."
"Poor owl!"
"Hey, the cruelest person is actually human."
"Well... I suspect that the ancients just wanted to eat it without a psychological burden, so they gave it such an infamy!"
Fang Ye added: "The owl is misunderstood and bears infamy, but it is actually a real little mouse-catcher. According to statistics, an owl can eat an average of 1,000 mice a year.
The monkey-faced eagle looks like a ghost, and it is even more fierce to catch mice. It can eat 2000 mice in a single summer.
The long-eared owl with particularly obvious ear feather clusters has been analyzed by ornithologists and found that 97% of the long-eared owl's food is rodents.
During the breeding season, long-eared owls will catch large numbers of mice and store them before the chicks hatch. Some people say that long-eared owls are rat-loving because they kill rats when they see them, although sometimes they do not eat them after killing them.
Compared with the ability of cats to catch mice, it can be said to be beyond the reach of owls!
However, with the deforestation of forests, the reduction of habitat, and the hunting and killing of owls, their numbers are now very few.
Having said so much, I hope to eliminate some of the prejudices and misunderstandings about owls. Owls are actually very cute birds. If we do not protect them, we may only see them in movie novels in the future. Figure out. "
Netizens did not know much about owls before!
Either I have watched some videos of owls and found them to be simple and cute, or I have heard the weird calls of owls at night, or heard some ominous legends about them, so I have no good impressions.
After listening to Fang Ye's explanation, they all refreshed their understanding and gave birth to some respect for the owl.
"I don't feel that I hate owls anymore!"
"Just because you can catch mice, you should protect them!"
"Go to Special Love" rewarded 5 shrimp balls!
"Qianxue Ming Dynasty" rewarded a rice ball!
Fang Ye pondered for a moment: "I saw some people say that the Owl Cafe was popular in Japan, so sometimes the Japanese way of treating animals is really hard to describe.
Owl Cafe may be interesting for people, but it is not a good place for Owl.
Basically, owls are nocturnal animals, and the night is a comfortable scene for them, but for the guests to visit the Owl Cafe, it is impossible to close the curtain and turn off the lights, right? Bright and dazzling lights, music, noisy human conversations, and even petting are all a strong stimulus for owls.
Many times you shrink your body and close your eyes when you watch it being touched. It looks cute and enjoyable. In fact, this is a manifestation of fear of stress.
Also, why would an owl stand obediently and be petted? Because their feet are shackled and tied to them, they cannot move. Even when he is not picking up guests on a break, he is still tied up.
All the year round, you can only stand square inches below your feet, which is no different from standing and waiting for death.
Not only mental damage, but also muscle atrophy and other problems. Different types of owls are intensively mixed together. This environment is very easy to be infected with diseases. Some little owls may still be in the recipes of large owls, staying with their natural enemies every day, and substituting it is a bit shuddering. ?
Of course you can't live well in this kind of environment. It's said that in a cafe with only 30 owls, 7 die a year, and some stand upright and fall straight from the wooden pole...
The source of these owls is also a problem. The breeding conditions for owls are very demanding. They need a large area in the wild to have the opportunity to breed. The cost of artificial breeding is very high. The popularity of this owl cafe actually gave birth to poaching. The market for owls has intensified illegal poaching and trade.
Owl Cafe does not promote the knowledge of conservation education. Customers who have gone shopping will only think that the owl is cute and want to buy one for themselves, instead of protecting the owl and donating to related organizations. This is a research survey. Over.
After movies including "Harry Potter" were released in 2001, the number of pet owl transactions in Indonesia has risen sharply, from over a hundred per year to 13,000 per year, a full 130-fold increase.
Owls are really cute, but they are birds of prey. They need a vast territory and have sharp claws. They cry in the middle of the night and consume a lot of meat. They don't like being touched by others. They need professional knowledge to take care of them. They are not suitable for private individuals. Rearing.
Many people buy it just for freshness and fun. They may raise it and die after raising it, or after a period of time to understand these shortcomings, they hate it and don't want to raise it. They carry a sick owl and discard it at will.
So I remind everyone that owls are classified as second-class protected animals in China, and it is illegal to keep them personally. Even if they are abroad, it is not recommended for everyone to keep them.
Owl is a kind of creature with unique charm. Although it is cute, I hope everyone can like it in a suitable way. "
