4 Chinese Nationals Accused of Eating 40 Rare Endangered Zimbabwe Tortoises 4 Chinese Nationals Accused of Eating 40 Rare Endangered Zimbabwe Tortoises Quote:
Four Chinese nationals have been arrested on cruelty charges after they cut up and ate rare tortoises, an animal protection group said Thursday. The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said the men admitted to killing 40 of the Bell's hinged species, which are listed as endangered. Investigators found 40 skeletons, 13 live tortoises and tortoise meat when they raided a house in rural southern Zimbabwe, the group said. ![]() Quote:
![]() Investigators said Zhang Hong Yuan, Chen Caijan, Lin Guibin and Shi Jiahua stored the tortoises in their own droppings and without food or water in 50 gallon (200 liter) drums. ![]() The four, fined separately on charges of "extreme cruelty" under the nation's animal welfare laws, were found to have illegally entered Zimbabwe and were now in jail awaiting deportation, the group said. The men worked without permits in the small scale mining district of Bikita, about 190 miles (300 kilometers) south of Harare. ![]() In a recent influx from Asia, Chinese companies have won construction and mining contracts across Zimbabwe where neighborhood groups have also reported them offering to buy snakes, bullfrogs and dogs, part of their customary diet, from impoverished locals. Authorities have frequently urged Chinese citizens to observe norms of behavior accepted in Zimbabwe and have warned communities near Chinese work camps not to provide unconventional food supplies.

Re: 4 Chinese Nationals Accused of Eating 40 Rare Endangered Zimbabwe Tortoises never knew that's how they make turtle soup. had turtle soup on a holiday in china back in 1993 or 1994. it was on a boat going down the main river in Guilin. When i was having my bowl of soup, i had a scoop and something hard was in my mouth, too hard to chew or eat, when i spat it out, it was a turtle's head ![]() |

Re: 4 Chinese Nationals Accused of Eating 40 Rare Endangered Zimbabwe Tortoises 1: Who really gives a shit... really. and for #2: who really gives a shit... really... It's a fucking turtle. Sure they're cute and all but I guarantee if that motherfucker ate meat, was 5 times bigger than us and was sentient we'd be toast too! ![]() |
