拉达赫的狗群数量近45 000人,对该地区的脆弱生态系统构成严重威胁,他们猎食濒危物种,如雪豹、帕拉斯的猫和打地洞的鸟类。 A feral dog population of nearly 45,000 in Ladakh poses a severe threat to the region’s fragile ecosystem, preying on endangered species like snow leopards, Pallas’s cats, and ground-nesting birds. 在旅游业、军事活动和废物管理不善的驱使下,狗群迅速繁殖,胜过当地掠食动物,至少造成五起致命的人身攻击,其中大多数涉及妇女和儿童。 Driven by tourism, military activity, and poor waste management, the dogs have multiplied rapidly, outcompeting native predators and causing at least five fatal human attacks, mostly involving women and children. 尽管自2015年以来做出了绝育努力,但人口仍然无法管理,专家们警告说,如果没有协调的废物控制、大规模绝育和更有力的执法,长期的生态损害就有可能发生。 Despite sterilization efforts since 2015, the population remains unmanageable, with experts warning that without coordinated waste control, mass sterilization, and stronger enforcement, long-term ecological damage is likely.
