山豬吊陷阱(snare)

山豬吊陷阱因其簡單易設，廣泛用於捕捉野生動物。然而，這類機械式陷阱不分對象，造成許多流浪動物與野生動物的傷亡，帶來嚴重的生態問題。在台灣，許多被棄養的流浪狗和貓會在尋找食物時誤入山豬吊，最終因長時間受困而受傷或死亡，成為無辜的受害者。如今，這些陷阱可以輕易在網路上購得，即使沒有獵捕知識的民眾也能隨意設置，進一步增加了動物受害的風險。儘管有些人認為山豬吊是傳統的狩獵方式，事實上，台灣原住民的狩獵講求技巧與尊重生態，並不依賴這類機械式陷阱。這種狩獵方法無法區分目標動物，容易造成不必要的犧牲。

The snare trap is widely used to capture wildlife due to its simplicity and ease of setup. However, this type of mechanical trap is indiscriminate, causing the injury or death of many stray animals and wildlife, leading to serious ecological issues. In Taiwan, many abandoned stray dogs and cats, while searching for food, inadvertently get caught in snare traps and suffer injuries or death due to prolonged confinement, becoming innocent victims. Nowadays, these traps can easily be purchased online, and even individuals without hunting knowledge can set them up, further increasing the risk to animals. Although some believe snare traps are part of traditional hunting methods, the reality is that indigenous hunting in Taiwan emphasizes skill and ecological respect, not reliance on such mechanical traps. This hunting method cannot differentiate between target animals, leading to unnecessary sacrifices.

Petr的建議(Petr`s opinion)

Petr認為，狩獵應基於尊重生命，設置陷阱時應具備專業技能，定期巡視並放生誤捕的動物。山豬吊陷阱缺乏監管，造成動物長時間受困，與負責任的狩獵方式截然不同。我們應該推動相關法規，禁止販售與使用山豬吊。此外也在此呼籲不要隨意棄養動物，每一條生命都應該被珍惜與照顧。讓我們一起行動，為動物創造更安全的環境，並守護我們的自然生態。

Petr believes that hunting should be based on respect for life, and traps should only be set by those with professional skills who regularly check traps and release any unintended animals. The lack of regulation for snare traps results in animals being trapped for long periods, which is in stark contrast to responsible hunting practices. We should push for relevant laws to prohibit the sale and use of snare traps. Furthermore, we also call for an end to the casual abandonment of animals. Every life deserves to be cherished and cared for. Let us take action together to create a safer environment for animals and protect our natural ecology.
