Excellentcomment , sandy . So sad also that china is paying for poachers to murderthousands of elephants a year for their ivory , for carvings . Also murderingtigers for tiger bones for phony ' traditional ' medicine . I try to Never buyanything from that horrible place .

悲伤的是中国让偷猎者谋杀大量的大象以获取象牙，或者对象牙进行雕刻。还猎杀老虎获得虎骨，制作骗人的传统中药。我尽量不购买来自那个可怕地方的产品。

Thismap is silly.... The UK is only green because we've already killed and eatenevery wild animal we used to have roaming around, not because we're greatconservationists!

这样的地图是很愚蠢的。英国在这张地图上之所以是绿色的，那是因为我们已经杀戮并吃掉了英国的所有野生动物，而不是因为英国是个很好的自然资源保护者！

Indiarecently shot 20 poachers/tree smugglers, and now the human rights people areat its throats. But unless such strong steps are taken, how can the forests andits inhabitants survive?

印度最近射杀了20名偷猎者和树木走私者，而人权组织强烈谴责印度的做法。

但是如果不采取这些强硬的措施，森林及其栖息地如何存在下去？
