[China] 轉發: 三亞“召回海鷗”引爭議

Dear irsychan,

Most principles of Ecology cannot be applied to the human beings. Because laws, religions and moral replace the basic rules of ecology.  

If you want to know the impacts of haphazard reintroduction of wildlife, pls google search "IUCN 100 most invasive species".

THX,

Captain

Reintroduction is a serious scientific work. IUCN lists a guideline about reintroduction.

It outlines a number of principles. It appears that the Sanya reintroduction does not fit the guideline (e.g. 5.1.2 Habitat)

To be honest, I know nothing about wetlands at Sanya.

Taking Mai Po as an example, they never "reintroduce" some birds for conservation. The key fundamental issue is to manage wetlands better, so to attract waterbirds coming back again. Not to manipulate the nature by selecting which species I like to enjoy.
