Food bloggers choose endangered plants to cook noodles. Should we catch up with him?

On August 22nd, 20 19, the food blogger "Wild Food Brother" apologized for the video released on August 22nd, 2 1 2009 about picking Mountain hare and cooking instant noodles outdoors, and deleted the video.

Should we pursue this food blogger?

Mountain hare is the first time I heard of it. It is a subspecies of Saussurea involucrata.

The botanist, a professor of life science at Capital Normal University, felt very sorry. He said it is not easy for Mountain hare to breed on the snowy mountains. Most Mountain hare flowers only once a year. Because we need to accumulate nutrition. When the seeds are ripe, the plants will wither. Moreover, the breeding period of plateau alpine plants is very short. Once the land is destroyed, it may become extinct.

Of course, we feel very sad and sorry for Tianshan Mountain hare, but the Weibo blogger's answer is also full of regret and sincerity. He said he didn't know it was an endangered plant. Moreover, when he was filming, he consulted the manager of the local specialty store and found that it was a local specialty for sale, so he invited the boss to take him to pick it.

Snow Lotus in Tianshan Mountain is a myth of martial arts novels, which is said to have the effect of bringing back the dead. The result is large-scale picking. Until 1996, Saussurea involucrata was listed as a second-class protected and third-class endangered species. But it is precisely because Snow Lotus can no longer be picked at will that Mountain hare has become a substitute for Snow Lotus.

I think this little blogger, from his subjective consciousness, didn't realize that this plant is precious. The objective reality is that this plant has not been included in the national key protection list.

So we should stand from the perspective of the parties. Although the fault is a bit big this time, we will not pursue it.

But after this incident, everyone will realize the preciousness of Mountain hare and try not to pick those wild plants when traveling to Tianshan Mountain. Because there are some wild plants, although endangered plants have not been listed in China's key protection list for the time being, we should have such a sense of maintaining the environment.

This also reminds people who travel abroad not to be curious. Appreciate the surrounding scenery with an open mind, while enjoying the beautiful scenery of nature, try to avoid hurting nature!
