There are 5 million Ganges turtles flooding in India. Why do the locals dare not eat them but export them to China? Most of the Ganges soft-shelled turtles are distributed in the Ganges River valley of India, which has reached a huge number of 5 million by the Ganges River in India. So many Ganges soft-shelled turtles are afraid to be eaten by local people. Why?

First, the religious belief level of the Indian people is obvious to all, and it is called the mother river by Indians. For the Ganges, which is the birthplace of Indian religion, many believers gather all the year round. They think that the Ganges is sacred and reasonable, and all creatures are sent by the gods. They are forbidden to capture the creatures in the river. Most Indians are devout believers and stick to this rule very faithfully. Secondly, almost all Indian people eat vegetarian food, and few people eat meat, especially Hindus. They never eat game. There are no game shops in India. Not only do they not eat, but they often feed the Henghe River. Because of this, the Ganges soft-shelled turtle can grow freely in the Ganges and grow very big.

Second, at the same time, these giant Ganges soft-shelled turtles are also very fertile. May to August is their spawning season every year, and each female soft-shelled turtle can lay 24 to 3 eggs. The survival ability of soft-shelled turtle in Ganges River is still very strong, and its adaptability to the environment is strong. Generally, the eggs laid can be developed, so the number of soft-shelled turtle in Ganges River has increased rapidly, and there are no natural enemies in Ganges River, so it is flooded in large numbers. The Ganges soft-shelled turtle, which is flooded in India, is listed as a first-class wild protected animal in China. The Ganges soft-shelled turtle is called soft-shelled turtle in our country, but the wild soft-shelled turtle in our country is rare and very popular, and it is a delicacy at the table. The Indian people have also discovered this business opportunity and want to export the Ganges soft-shelled turtle to our country for sale, so as to solve the problem of flooding in their country and make a sum of money at the same time. But the local people dare not eat, and neither do our people, because they dare not eat.

Third, the pollution level of the Ganges River is extremely high. Because of religious beliefs, Indian people will cremate their bodies by the river and throw them into the Ganges River, or directly tie them to a raft and let them drift on the Ganges River until they rot and sink to the bottom of the river. They also bathe and wash clothes in the river, and the domestic wastewater and even untreated industrial wastewater are directly discharged into the Ganges River for swimming. The number of coliforms detected by inspectors in the water treatment of Ganges has exceeded the standard value by more than 1 times. Eighty percent of the deaths of diseases in India are related to water-borne diseases. The Trionyx sinensis, which overflows in the river, is an omnivore and likes to eat rotten food. It eats reasonable pollutants from birth to death, resulting in a large number of bacteria and carrying many virus pathogens.
