疑有人非法饲养 懒猴牙齿遭锉平弃路边

因为卡通片《动物城市》(Zootopia)让社会渐渐发现懒猴的可爱之处,它们平常身居森林里,由于行动特别缓慢,加上炯炯有神的眼睛,近年来很是受捧,甚至也引起人类想要当宠物饲养的想法。但近日有民众在新加坡岛屿乡村俱乐部发现了一只懒猴,牙齿被锉平,相信是遭人非法捕捉当宠物饲养,然后被抛弃在俱乐部附近,关爱动物研究协会已介入并拯救懒猴。

关爱动物研究协会(ACRES)揭露,上月18日一民众于中央集水地带自然保护区发现懒猴,它当时位于新加坡岛屿乡村俱乐部中央,最后也将懒猴引入笼子内,等待协会救援。

对此,协会表示感到相当震惊,因为懒猴属于稀有动物,本地也相当稀少,而且其牙齿被锉平,相信是遭人非法逮捕后作为宠物饲养最后被遗弃。

协会也指出,懒猴属于有毒灵长类动物,腋下内侧有分泌毒液的腺体。这与它们的唾液混合后会成为有毒物质,因此捕猎者在捕捉到后会将牙齿锉平甚至拔出,让他们无法咬人。

而被锉平牙齿的懒猴也无法回到野外生活,因为毒液是他们唯一的防身武器,一旦被锉平后,可能就无法在野外生活。

随后,协会也在脸书专页上呼吁,近年来,网上经常流传可爱动物的饲养视频,也使人们对这些动物的需求增加,增加了他们非法捕捉的可能。

据《濒危物种(进口与出口)法令》,进口、拥有、展示或出售此类动物属于违法行为,触法可被处以每个物种最高五万新元的罚款,或最长两年监禁,或两者兼施。
