世界之旅:里海的梭鲈,哈萨克斯坦
英文原文
Kazakhstan, Caspian Pike Perch, 1999
"Pike perch seem plentiful at this Kazakh processing plant, but the catch here has fallen sharply in recent years—and that's not the worst news. The [Caspian Sea's] sturgeon, ancient fish that survived the transition from dinosaur age to the mammal era, may not survive the transition from communism to free market. The source of 90 percent of the world's caviar, they are being decimated by poaching and pollution."
—From "The Rise and Fall of the Caspian Sea," May 1999, National Geographic magazine
中文翻译
在这个哈萨克加工厂,梭鲈看起来很丰富,但是这里的捕获量在近年急剧下降---而那还不是最坏的消息。在从恐龙时代到哺乳动物时期的变迁中幸存下来的古老鱼类[里海的]鲟鱼可能无法在共产主义到自由市场的过渡中生存下来。占世界鱼子酱90%来源的鲟鱼正在被偷猎和污染大批杀害。
----摘自1999年《国家地理杂志》5月号《里海的兴衰》
