The life of cats is very difficult. The stray cats in Hangzhou Xixi Wetland are in crisis and starving

Xixi Wetland is a famous scenic spot in Hangzhou. It is a biologically diverse wetland ecological area. There are birds in the sky. They mainly prey on fish, shrimp, shellfish in the water, and some weasels in the forest. Their food may be smaller insects and mice. There is also a common small animal squirrel on the tree, he is also an omnivore, they usually eat in the trash can, this is the small animal living area. However, there is also a small animal closely related to humans in the wetland. There are also many cats in the wetland. How do they live? After many days of observation, the editor found that the living conditions of stray cats in the wetlands are very worrying. There are fewer and fewer stray cats in the wetlands, so they can't find food.

The fact that many cats grow up at home becomes abandoned and stray cats, since they were raised in human households, they lack the ability to survive in the wild, so they are less likely to hunt, so these cats often Life is a mess, and many of them still need to be fed by humans. After all, there are still many cat lovers who bring some cat food every day to help them get through their days. However, it may be that humans eat less. Many stray cats I saw were frighteningly thin and shockingly hungry. Obviously, they may disappear into the wetlands. Stray cats are facing an existential crisis.

Let's look at these cats.

This is a butterfly show on a green embankment near the little black cat, his eyes are blurred with hunger, he falters and looks tired. It was clear that this was the failure of the predator, returning listlessly, ignoring human observation, just looking for something to eat quickly, not alert. This is the first time I've seen a cat in this state. Not all cats are superspirited and capable of fighting at any time, but it is clear that this little black cat is no longer capable of acting.

Not far from the stray cat, there was a weasel who didn't notice the little black cat. According to normal people's understanding, it has the character of a cat, and everything with the character of a mouse belongs to him. This should be his food and should be well received. Good challenge, but we don't get to see the big fight because the black cat is already heavy and wobbly.

These kittens look very pitiful at the exit of Xixi Wetland. They are actually a litter, led by a female cat. It's just that the kitten is actually very small, and obviously, this cat is not too old. They were also weak from hunger, staring at every tourist coming out. In fact, there are several litter boxes around them, but the kittens are jumping up and down, obviously there should be nothing to eat in it, and humans don't seem to throw garbage casually, so these kittens are facing an existential crisis.

Looking at the pitiful appearance of that big cat, it is obvious that he has been hungry for a long time. This kind of cat must live with humans. They do not prey on birds and animals, but only beg from humans. Very few people seem to be feeding them. In nature, they cannot survive, but become fertilizer for plants. In fact, there are many smart cats, they even catch crabs by the river, eat by the river, and prey on birds, but the cats associated with humans undoubtedly do not have these abilities.

This is a kitten in the Bird Watching Pavilion. He is lying here quietly, looking at the trees and waiting for the birds? There are really many small water birds here, and they occasionally climb to the shore. Look at this little guy, he doesn't look like a cat that catches birds.

Why are wetland cats reeling from hunger into an existential crisis? This may be related to human behavior, many people think that cats destroy ecological small animals, he will eat a lot of birds, squirrels, etc., he is the top of the ecological chain, so humans do not give them the conditions to survive, no longer feed them, let them life and death. This is one of the reasons. On the other hand, it may also be related to the improvement of human environmental protection awareness. Now that garbage has begun to be sorted, many roadside trash cans rarely litter, so these small animals have no food source. main reason. In the wetlands, squirrels often go to eat garbage, and now these squirrels have a harder time eating than before.
