00:00Before watching the video, I would like to remind you that there are more contents on the ReDian website.
00:05The cute-looking five-tailed bear is not only a national treasure in Australia,
00:09but also an animal that many people want to get close to when traveling in Australia.
00:13Experience the feeling of hugging a five-tailed bear.
00:16However, in recent years, Australia has been threatened by wildfires, droughts, diseases, etc.,
00:22resulting in a large reduction in the number of five-tailed bears,
00:24and even being classified as a dangerous species.
00:28Therefore, protecting five-tailed bears has become a hot topic.
00:32Recently, a five-tailed bear zoo in Queensland, Australia,
00:36released such an announcement.
00:38Since July, they have stopped providing five-tailed bear hugging experience services.
00:43The reason is that they want to avoid putting too much pressure on the five-tailed bear.
00:47Isn't it a happy thing to be hugged?
00:50Why do you put pressure on the five-tailed bear?
00:52According to BBC,
00:55the Animal Rights Organization believes that the five-tailed bear is actually a solitary nocturnal animal.
01:00It should be used to sleep during the day,
01:02but these tourist attractions are to attract tourists,
01:05and let the five-tailed bear sacrifice its sleep time to hug and take pictures for tourists.
01:10This approach will actually put a lot of pressure on the five-tailed bear.
01:13It's a little cruel to them.
01:16But from a commercial point of view,
01:18the data shows that the five-tailed bear brings up to 3.2 billion Australian dollars a year,
01:24and provides up to 30,000 job opportunities.
01:29Since it can bring such a huge benefit,
01:31why did the zoo agree to suspend this service?
01:36The original said that they made this decision after receiving strong reactions from tourists.
01:42Now domestic and foreign tourists have made a huge change,
01:46and their quality has improved a lot.
01:48They think that as long as they can observe the five-tailed bear up close,
01:52they don't have to physically touch it,
01:55or hug it, or touch it.
01:58So the original also respected and adopted the suggestions of the Tourist and Animal Protection Organization.
02:03Although the Queensland government has made clear regulations
02:07that the five-tailed bear must take a day off after working for three consecutive days,
02:11the maximum working time per day is 30 minutes,
02:14and 180 minutes per week,
02:16and the five-tailed bear mother who has a baby does not have to go out to deal with tourists, etc.
02:21However, the Tourist and Animal Protection Organization called for a gradual elimination of this kind of service,
02:27so that the five-tailed bear can resume their normal working hours.
