很纠结啊 一方面没有买卖就没有杀害是成立的,另一方面现在很多地方生态破坏的也很严重,导致一些物种濒临灭绝,比如我们最爱的拉登。试想可爱的拉登在花友手里是百般呵护, 在当地人眼里可能就直接被压路机碾过去了。比如下面这段Terry Smale 写的,一个地方因为建了一个矿场毁灭了拉登的很多种群。
Conophytum ratum is one of the more vulnerable species in the wild. There seem to have been 4 populations known for the typical large form of the species: Onder Namies (type locality), south of Achab se berg, Achab farm and the north-west foot of the Gamsberg. There do not seem to have been many plants at any of these localities, but the type locality was largely robbed out by a collector and the NW Gamsberg population has been destroyed by zinc mining. The plants at these localities grow (grew?) in flat quartz areas with just the top window exposed; they are often with C. maughanii which can look very similar in the wild situation. Wild plants are usually solitary and large, up to 40 - 50mm across. The Gamsberg itself is a flat-topped inselberg with a big crater on the west side. To the north-east there is a plateau region with some endemic species. In this area there is a substantial population of C. ratum which is much smaller than the type, only growing to 10-15mm diameter (even in cultivation). Furthermore it tends to flower in cultivation in mid-August, some 3-4 weeks earlier than the typical form. In my opinion, it constitutes a good subspecies and I wish that I had named it in the early 2000s after I had been shown it. It might have then received some protection from the mining operation. The mine is starting in the crater area but is now scheduled to move to the eastern part and this ecotype is unlikely to survive. The mining company has dug up the large common plants and is preserving them in a nursery for future landscaping when mining has finished, but no attention has been paid to the rare miniatures.
