失旅遊業恐致生態災難

旅遊業為馬達加斯加提供了30多萬個工作機會,但在疫情封鎖期間,當地人被迫遷往近郊地區去砍伐森林來耕作及取木作柴火,導致野生動物失去棲息地。而且他們比以往獵殺更多野生動物如極度瀕危的紅領狐猴作食糧及在當地市場售賣。

tourism supports more than 300,000 jobs in Madagascar. During the pandemic lockdown, the locals forced to move to rural areas to clear forests, where wildlife inhabits, to grow food and for firewoods. They are also hunting more wildlife, such as the critically endangered red ruffed lemur, for food or to sell in local markets then before.
