The video of online celebrity food blogger Tizi shooting boiled sharks and barbecued sharks recently attracted the attention of the whole network. The shark involved was identified as a man-eating shark from Fujian, and the relevant personnel had previously locked it, and the value of the shark is being further identified. The anchor once noted in the video: "Artificial farming is edible". However, a wildlife protection law enforcement officer in Sichuan said that the shark in the video was indeed a man-eating shark. As far as he knows, the man-eating shark has not been artificially bred yet.
Up to now, one of Tizi's short video accounts has been banned for "not complying with the relevant provisions of the community self-discipline convention", which shows that it has 1.147 million fans. "Tizi" himself has not responded to this yet, and his common phone also shows the power-off status.
Yu Zhang, a lawyer of Beijing Huatai Law Firm, said that online celebrity's behavior has been suspected of constituting the crime of illegally purchasing precious and endangered wildlife products. She may face imprisonment of not more than five years or criminal detention and a fine; If it is verified by the judicial organs that the circumstances are serious, it can be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years but not more than ten years and fined; If the circumstances are particularly serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 1 years, and shall also be fined or confiscated.
In a word, whether eating animals under second-class protection will be sentenced depends on the specific circumstances. According to Article 341 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China, anyone who illegally hunts or kills rare and endangered wild animals under special state protection, or illegally buys, transports or sells rare and endangered wild animals under special state protection and their products shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years or criminal detention, and shall also be fined.
