The animal market in China

The attitude of the Chinese towards animals is a special work tool, or the food or toy. In Beijing Shilihe market just sell toys for children: live dogs, cats, turtles, squirrels, chipmunks and hamsters squeak and scream, beg on the handles.




These thoroughbred in Moscow are a lot of money. Here - ten times cheaper. But these dogs live a long time if you're lucky - a year, and may die within a week. In some ways - Chinese fakes.



Market Shilihe is decorated in traditional Chinese style. He is big, here are sold not only animals, but also crafts made of stones, plants and worms for food or fishing.



Huge pavilion with aquariums, a variety of fish. Fish - it's beautiful, and above them nobody mocks and fries. Buy in restaurants and home. The price of one fish may be up to several thousand dollars. Not that there is some kind of dog! And this, too - the mentality.



Turtle for the Chinese - a toy in its purest form. Buy your child until he tired.



Reptiles of different sizes, types and prices.



They lie like some tomatoes in boxes piled in a heap. Those that are more - a hundred rubles, the smallest give fifteen per pair.



White "naked" frog. And why should they, with them what to do? Over fifty rubles you can select multiple.



Aquarium fish cheaply. But what does: each type in a separate basin with water. Turtles and water that was not given.



Nobody runs on the market, it does not shout about zhivodёrstve and calls the police. This is the absolute norm for China. Only a few passers-by look sad and shakes his head. Certainly I think that turtle soup such does not cook.



It's not apples and walnuts, picked from the tree. They also respect, if not fish. Soon there will be some celebration, so nuts carefully sorted and packaged in a beautiful box.



This shop only sell chinchillas. Narrow specialization.



It's expensive toy breeds. The least that you pay for the furry nyamochku - two and a half thousand rubles. This beast is worth eight thousand!



For the chinchilla, like, nice to watch, they are clean and tidy the cell.



But animals still sad. White chinchilla - the most expensive, cost from 25 thousand rubles. Sellers attribute this to the fact that these are least likely to come across.



The largest department in the market - a bird.



Canaries, parrots of all kinds.



Ship parrots barrels! Confess, who as a child was a parrot?



Most dangerous bird!



Cells for all tastes.



Cells were doing here.





Hamsters are also considered virtually useless, they buy their children the poorest Chinese families.



If a child wants is the rodent most likely parents gave him a chipmunk. You can take two, will be discounts. And one called Chip.



Under these conditions, the animals probably do not last long. Even nepontyano why dump them all in one basket, where they swarm, and only interfere with each other? Here mentality. China large product should be a lot to all enough. And the merchant can see that he was a wealthy, if the product is on the shelf alone.



Sorry for everyone, but dogs - most of all. Why keep them all in cages?
