Daily Forest Ranger: Start Saving Giant Pandas

Chapter 145 Human desires have always been the greatest "natural enemies" of free-growing plants and animals.

???

Everyone was stunned again.

Isn't this stuff sold a lot in the flower market?

Can protected plants still be sold in the market?

Guessing that they would have a lot of questions like this, so this time Lin Xuan didn't make a fool of himself, but directly explained.:
"Golden Retrievers are indeed a national second-class protected plant, and most of the ones you buy and keep at home are real Golden Retrievers.

"In fact, it has only been a short two months since it became a national second-class protected plant.

"Because two months ago, the state updated the key plant protection list, and the Golden Retriever is one of the new protected plants."

Lin Xuan sighed, and continued: "In fact, our country's key plant protection list has not been updated for 12 years, so over the years, many new needs and requirements have emerged during practical application and operation. question."

"It is really not easy to wait until this list is updated. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as the long-awaited one."

"For example, the golden retriever in front of us may be regarded as an ornamental plant. Is it a bit of a big deal to be listed as a secondary protection?"

"Actually, it is because of the fires of this plant in recent years, and the fact that artificial breeding has not yet entered the right track. This has also led to the fact that most of the golden retrievers sold on the market are directly dug back from the wild."

"It also puts the plant, including its environment, under threat."

Lin Xuan's face suddenly became serious: "Think about it, everyone, are many of the animals and plants we have seen before slowly becoming endangered because humans have various needs for them?"

After Lin Xuan said this, everyone in the live broadcast room fell silent.

Human desire has always been the biggest "natural enemy" of these free-growing plants and animals.

"When it comes to golden retrievers, you may not feel it yet, but you must be familiar with another example."

Huang Chen paused, and slowly said four words: "Xing'an Dufalcon."

Xing'an Rhododendron
Hearing this name, many viewers who were happily interacting with Lin Xuan's barrage in the live broadcast room just froze slightly.

As Lin Xuan said, this name is indeed well-known.

Because this is a kind of wild plant that has been on CCTV and is widely urged not to buy again. It is a wild plant that needs to be protected.

"A few years ago, before there was no popular science report on Rhododendron xing'an, during Chinese New Year, some markets and online stores would put a very beautiful flower branch on the shelves.

Most of these flower branches are hung with red or pink flower buds, which are full of flowers, cut off by the roots, and sold in bundles.

After such flower branches are bought home, they look very good just in a vase.

If water is given in the vase, the buds on the branches can slowly unfold, and they will bloom prosperously and happily in the cold and twelfth lunar month. "

Lin Xuan sighed, and continued: "At that time, not many people knew what kind of plant it was. They just thought it was beautiful, festive, and easy to live. As long as you gave it water, it could bloom a full year, and when it withered, throw it away. That’s it, save time and effort.”

"So, if you spread the word, more and more people will buy it, and this kind of flower will become more and more popular. Many people call it spring flowers, or New Year's flowers, flowers of good fortune."

"This is the Xing'an Rhododendron that I just mentioned to you."

Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and touched the lump of fluff on the root-like stem of the huge Golden Retriever in front of him, but what appeared in front of his eyes was the Xing'an Rhododendron that had been cut down to only a small root.

"The flowers of Rhododendron xing'an are indeed beautiful and festive, but their growth cycle is extremely long."

"The flower branches of the length and thickness that can be bought in the market can only grow after several years, or even more than ten years."

"Being cut off like this, and cut bald, means that the years to ten years of hard work and growth will be wiped out."

"Azaleas are not rare in the first place, they are found in many mountains in the north."

"However, because of such endless felling, the rhododendrons in Xing'an, which were all over the mountains and plains, are now described as lingering, which is no longer an exaggeration."

Speaking of this, Lin Xuan paused slightly: "But you don't have to worry, this time, in the updated list of national key protected plants, seven species of Rhododendronaceae are also on the list, and the first one is the one we are familiar with. Xing'an Rhododendron."

"The remaining six species of rhododendrons are Rhododendron vermilion, Rhododendron chinensis, Rhododendron jinggangshan, Rhododendron jiangxi, Rhododendron spittle and Rhododendron ring-leaves."

"These types of rhododendrons are relatively regional, and they are not commonly seen at ordinary times, and they are less common than Xing'an rhododendrons."

That is to say, this kind of flower technique, which can be bought anywhere on the Internet and in the market, has been covered with food and housing since two months ago.

In the future, when you see this kind of flower branch for sale, you can report it directly.

We must not tolerate Wang's behavior of destroying and protecting plants like this!
(What? Has Rhododendron xing'an entered the list of protected plants this time? Great!)

(This is really good! Before we sold Xing’an Rhododendrons in winter, I went to report them and said they couldn’t control them. Now that there is a list, Xing’an Rhododendrons are also protected plants. Finally, we can seriously attack those unconscionable vendors!)

However, some were happy and some were worried. After learning that the Golden Retriever and Xing'an Rhododendron were already protected plants, many viewers in the live broadcast room were also a little worried.

(Anchor, we bought branches of Rhododendron xing'an in our house before, what should we do, will we be punished?)
(Yes, my family just bought a pot of golden dog fern at the flower market a few months ago. How could I know that it would become a flower that can eat and live! It’s so panic!)

(And now that the list has been updated with so many protected plants, isn’t it possible that if you go to the mountains to play in the future, you may pick something that is a protected plant?)

(Yeah, anchor, we are not like you, we can’t recognize what those plants are when we see them. If it’s picked wrong, won’t we also be sanctioned?)

"You don't have to worry about buying protected plants before, or growing them at home. Just buy the ones you bought before, and continue to grow the ones you already have. Our focus is on those who know the law and violate the law after the list is released. people."

Lin Xuan smiled, straightened up and continued: "Usually, as long as you buy home ornamental plants, you buy them in regular flower markets, so you don't have to worry at all, and you can buy them boldly."

"After all, those who can go to the formal market channels have also gone through layers of audits. Before the plants come into contact with everyone, they have already passed the necessary audits. In this case, if there are still people who assist in the transaction or sell protected plants. , the merchants and pirates who are sanctioned will not be blamed on everyone."

"However, I just saw some people talking about whether many plants will become grasses that eat and cover in the future."

Lin Xuan paused, then nodded with a smile: "Although I really don't want to hurt you, it's true."
