狮子吼，乃是谢逊的成名绝技，传说其年轻时游历非洲，偶遇流浪雄狮参悟所得。因其满头金发，故绰号金毛狮王。形神兼备。
经专家解读狮吼含义
此山是我开, 此树是我栽。要想从此过, 留下一身肉!
小的们，大块吃肉。走一个。
枪炮发明之后，狮吼渐无用武之地，慢慢由武林流传民间，山之巅海之滨都可见寻常百姓演练狮吼，有的甚至可以对着树洞吼。
总之吼一吼，浑身通泰

1. 堪培拉动物园新成员驾到：公狮 Mlinzi 和 母狮 Nairibi
National Zoo and Aquarium welcomes tawny lions Mlinzi and Nairibi in hope cubs are born

2. 公狮Mlinzi十年前出生于澳大利亚的南澳，母狮Nairibi生于丹麦，两岁后迁居澳大利亚，入住维州
Mlinzi was born at Monarto Safari Park in South Australia in 2013 while Nairbi was born in Denmak in 2012 and arrived in Australia in 2014, when she resided at Werribee Open Range Zoo in Victoria.

3. 因其良好的基因匹配，科学家做媒，婚房设在堪培拉
Mlinzi, an adult male, and lioness Nairibi were carefully chosen and imported from other zoos, after experts determined they made a good genetic match.

4. 私下相处了几个月后，已与公众见面
Male lion Mlinzi and lioness Nairibi are now on display to the public after spending some months getting to know each other in private since being transferred to Canberra.

5. 目前为止它们适应的不错，盼早生贵子
General manager Paul Whitehorn said they have been "settling in nicely" so far since moving to Canberra and hopes it can soon lead to cubs being born.

1. 哇，这个太神奇了，居然是叶插的！（虽然我也曾叶插植物，可那都是多肉类的小东西，像这么大的植物居然也能叶插成功，太不容易了。）
Horticulturalist John Sandham said what made this flower unique was that it came from a cutting rather than a seed.
"What this flower is this time around is actually a 10-year-old plant that we produced from a leaf cutting," he said.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023 ... c-gardens/101837008

2. 脉冲式释放臭味，隔几十秒来一次
What the plant does is pulses the smell out, so every 10 or 20 seconds it actually pushes a smell out in a pulse ... it has a strong ammonia, rotting sort of fish sort of smell." （2016年）
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016 ... t-thousands/7127748

The flower pushes out a strong stench every 30 seconds, with the smell strongest further away from the plant.(2017年）
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2017 ... nic-gardens/8160470

3. 繁殖方法多样性，既可以有性繁殖，也可以无性繁殖
corpse flowers can reproduce in different ways. Sometimes, they reproduce asexually: a tuber-like bulge at the base of their stem, called a corm, grows large and eventually splits, producing multiple genetically identical plants.
Corpse flowers can also reproduce sexually, which requires pollination by insects — or, in botanic gardens, by humans wielding paint brushes.

https://undark.org/2021/01/11/br ... -the-corpse-flower/

4. 授粉后到种子成熟大约经历9个月的时间，一旦种子成熟，植株枯萎休眠约一年，然后转入叶子路线，周而复始直至积需够足够的能量再次开花。
Unlike the spectacular (and similarly long-awaited bloomer) the century plant, or Agave americana, blooming is not the end of the life cycle for the titan arum. If pollinated, it will produce fruit for the next nine months or so. Once the fruit is ripe, it will die back, and after a year or so of dormancy, will emerge as a leaf for the next few cycles until it is ready to bloom again.

1. 除了北领地，澳洲的其它地区都有枯死病，并且西澳和塔斯马尼亚的感染率最高

The disease exists in every Australian state and in the ACT but not in the Northern Territory.
Western Australia and Tasmania have the highest levels of infestation, likely a throwback to earlier booming forestry industries.

2. 疫区注射防治，一次管五年 (感觉像是给树打疫苗 ）
Where the Phytophthora already exists, it can be treated by a direct injection of the fungicide known as phosphite, which may boost the health of the tree itself and give it a fighting chance.

Dieback control from stem injection with phosphite can last up to five years.

看到过说“毛孩子”，没联想过“fur baby”，更没想到入选辞典，养宠物的“爸爸妈妈”们应该开心了。

赶紧查一下字典：
fur baby （noun）
​a person's dog, cat or other pet animal that has fur, especially when it is treated with the love and attention you would give a child

The perils of pet ownership: your dog isn't a 'fur baby', it's your property
捡屎官的风险，你的狗子不是什么毛孩子，而是你的财产

Is your property a danger to others?
相对于自然人或组织，狗是财产，当发生狗咬狗时，是你的财产威胁到别人的财产了吗？实际上也是按财产纠纷来处理的。

He, she, or it — do dogs have rights?
他，她或是它，狗狗有权利吗？一般人会用它作代词。通常法律下，所拥有的动物都作为财产。人对动物有生杀大权。

Should the law recognise a dog like a person?
法律是否应将狗视作人？即使把狗当作人看待时，选举权也是不能给他/她的。就象你不能给一个三岁的小孩选举权。
And specific species in specific countries have already been granted legal personhood — for example, dolphins have been classified as legal persons under Indian law. This means that they cannot not be killed or held captive for entertainment in India.
个别物种已被付与法律人格。比如，海豚，在印度法律之下，属于法人/自然人。即你不能随意杀害海豚或将其囚禁供人娱乐。

Push for a new definition
迫切需要一个新的定义。对非人类动物作法律界定。

有时觉得很奇怪，既然毛孩子了，执行安乐时，问过他/她的意愿吗。晕掉。

再聊聊狗
greyhound 灰狗   极偶然见到遛灰狗的。最先从电影中灰狗大巴认识它。后来在澳门跑狗场远远见过实体。
很喜欢看这种狗，子弹头，前胸肌肉男，淑女黄蜂腰，修长的芭蕾腿，尾似拖枪，整体呈流线型，小跑时特别优雅，疯跑时就是追风的狗。

大概二年前，新闻中曾讨论过澳洲是否要禁赛狗。现在很少听说狗赛或看到相关海报，也许不是此道中人，没留意。查了一下。
greyhound racing is still legal in all Australian states and territories, except the ACT.       15 June 2022
Greyhound racing: despite waning public support, governments are spending big to keep the industry running
除ACT，澳洲全境合法赛狗。尽管支持赛狗的人数有所减少，政府仍大力支持赛狗业。

数据
41 greyhounds have died racing on NSW racetracks in 2022, with 121 killed nationwide.
More than 7,400 dogs have been injured on Australian tracks.
On average, three greyhounds die racing every week, with 27 injured every day.
2022年，赛道殉职41 死于非命121 赛场负伤7400。       平均每周殉职3，每天因公负伤27

Small animals are victims of cruel live lure training
Live lure training or baiting, also called "blooding," refers to the use of small animals to excite and enhance a chase instinct in young greyhounds. Typically, screaming animals are dangled before greyhounds, dragged in front of them on ropes, or simply set loose to be attacked. Innocent animals, most commonly rabbits, possums and baby pigs, often suffer cruel and miserable deaths.
赛狗的训练可以用血腥来形容，可怜的小动物如兔子，负鼠之类被用作小鲜肉诱饵，激发其野性，去追逐撕咬本不属于它们的奖品。

原来这狗名字是greyhounds啊，

某人清晨，年轻的西人小伙子，牵着两只灰狗在马路中间跑（太早，路上没车），狗狗边跑边拉，小伙子就跟没看见一样，主仆三位绝尘而去。
