同样作为中国人我对食用野生动物的那些广州人实在无法理解。而最令我感到难以置信的是他们竟然也把猫狗这样的都市小动物也端上餐桌。7月7日在上海郊区有一辆卡车被爱猫人士拦下。里面有800多只猫被残忍地装在很多小箱子内，每箱里有二十多只。其中有些已经死亡大多数濒临死亡。据说每天都会有这样的卡车把猫运到广州做成一道叫“龙虎斗”的菜（猫与蛇一起烹煮）其中大部分是猫贩子捉来的流浪猫，甚至也有被拐骗的溜出来玩的家猫。他们捉猫的手法极其残忍，包括使用能将猫爪的肉垫刺穿的小型捕兽夹。
国内的媒体虽然一直呼吁大家要保护野生动物，但我觉得他们实际给人的感觉是仅仅大熊猫和中华鲟这样的濒危动物是值得保护的。上海每次救了受伤的中华鲟就大肆报道——动用了多少多少人，为它组成专家会诊，还要后续一路跟踪报道直到他被放归海洋。但这次800只猫事件的报道却极少。我是77840的救助义工（77840是我们对这次猫事件的称呼）为此感到非常失望。
我认为舆论导向首先应该从根本上改变人们对动物的观念，把“保护野生动物”上升到“爱护小动物”，要让人们看到动物后的第一想法是他们真可爱而不是他们的肉肯定很鲜美。然后要尽快督促政府出台相应的禁止虐待动物法或小动物保护条例。中国需要救助的人的确也很多，但这不能成为我们漠视动物权利的借口，救助人和救助动物并不矛盾。如果任凭事态发展，等到野生动物都吃光了，那些喜好野生动物的广州人要吃什么？人吗？

Being a Chinese, I simply couldn't understand those GuangDong people who eat wild animals. The most incredible thing is they even put the kittens and puppies on the table. On July 7th, a truck was stopped by cat-lovers at Shanghai suburbans. 800 cats were cruelly killed and put into small cases, in every case there were twenty somewhere bodies. Some died, some dying. It's said that trucks like this carry cats to Guangzhou everyday, make them into a dish call "dragons and tigers fight" (cooking cats and snakes together), most of the cats are street cats caught by cat mongers, and some of them are pet cats that went out to play. Their techniques are barbarous, including nips that penetrate cat paws.

Although Chinese media always call on protecting wild animals, I still feel they only promote threatened animals such as Giant pandas and Chinese sturgeons. Every time Shanghai reports hugely on saving an injured Chinese sturgeon - from how many experts form the consultation, and follows up to the release of cured animal into the sea. However reports on the issue of these 800 cats were few.

As a 77840 rescue volunteer (77840 is how we call this cat issue), I feel so disappointed by this altitude. I believe that first of all, the media should change the people's view on animals thoroughly, that elevate the "protect the animals" to "love the animals", and change their first impression from "how delicious they are" to "how cute they are". Follow that, they should push the goverment to bring up corresponding laws or rules to ban the maltreat of small animals.

I admit that there are lots of people waiting to be rescued in this country, however, that couldn't be an excuse for us to ignore the rights of the animals - it is not contradictory to rescue both of them. If we just let it be like this, what else to eat after all the wild animals are eaten? Humans?

我也同意要尊重小动物的尊严。但不代表要像对待大熊猫一样去对待小猫。无论何时，当前可用的资源都是是有限的，所以才有事情的轻急缓重。连中华鲟这样众所周知的濒危物种都不能得到媒体的关注，那么凭什么要媒体去对司空见惯的小猫投入关注？
正如你们爱猫人士有自己的主张和立场，连许多宠物猫的伙食水平都达不到的贫穷人士也有他们自己的立场。他们的许多要求和呼声都被严格地压制下来，他们也缺少渠道去表达自己的意愿。爱猫一族已经拥有比他们更加优越的条件，至少你们是社会上生活无忧的一群，也能够很顺利地建立自己的组织。所以，请不要去责备社会不理解你们，而是你们已经有很好的优势了。社会的扶持和关注要投放到更加迫切的地方去。
广州对吃的要求是很高，但是大部分的广州人都是在平常的食料上下功夫而已。而且有基本科学素养的人也不会相信野生动物的所谓滋补作用。无疑，广州有相当一部分人是很喜欢吃野生动物，但这不是普遍的风俗，这种对广州人的偏见是被错误放大的符号。普通的广州人并没有吃野生动物的特殊爱好。而且，以你打探过的野生动物价格行情来看，你觉得广州有多少人吃得起？那部分人能够代表多少广州人？在大嚼野生动物的行列里面，一样没有地域界限。所以，不要把残害野生动物的标签胡乱就贴到广州身上。

I’m also agree to respect the dignity of little animal. However, doesn’t mean that you treat a kitten as how you treat a panda. Whenever, those usable resources at present are limited, hence, the urgency of issue will be taken place. Chinese sturgeon, such a popular endangered species can’t even gain an exclusive attention from media, whereby shall the media to put exclusive attention into the commonly seen kitten? Be just like those cat lover who has their own assertion and point of view. Their request and urge has strictly been suppressed, they are also lack of channel to express their aspiration.Cat’s lover has been equipped with superior prerequisite compare with others; at least, you don’t have such worried to live in this society, being able to form your own organization without obstacle. Hence, please don’t blame the society for being not understanding, as you already stand a very good position. Support and attention given by the society should target on those sector which is urgently required. Guangzhao has highly demand on food; however, most of the communities in Guangzhao only put efforts in their usual foodstuffs. Moreover, those community who has science knowledge wouldn’t believe in the nutritional value contribute by wildlife. No doubt, there are certain groups of community in Guangzhao like to consume wildlife; however, it’s not a general practice, it is a mistake to execrate the prejudice of the community in Guangzhao. In general, community in Guangzhao does not have a special affinity to consume wildlife. Moreover, based on your research concerning the price check of wildlife, do you think that they are affordable? It such a small group, how can they represent the community in Guangzhao? There is no boarder line in terms of consuming wildlife. As such, don’t ever blame that community in Guangzhao are those who cruelly kill wildlife.

吃野生动物可以让某些有钱人彰显自己的富有，让有权人彰显自己的威严。多么可笑啊！就像北京人是个人就得买个车，不然就很没面子，即使堵车到单位要一个多小时而其实走路只要二十分钟。

Eating wild animals could make the rich show their wealth and give those in power a chance to show their influence and affluent lifestyle.

How silly it is! It is just like everyone in Beijing buying cars, otherwise it would be shameful, even it will take more than one hour to get there when it is just a twenty-minute walk.

太令人发指了！
太没有人性了！
我们和动物都生活在同一片蓝天下，
共同主宰着地球，
何必要自相残杀呢？

So outrageous! So inhuman! We live under the same heaven as the wildlife animals. Why do they slaughter and feast on them like that? -commented by a fourth-grade elementary schoolgirl
