在瑞士单独养一条金鱼违法

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]Many families will have been delighted to win a goldfish as a prize at a funfair, happily putting it in a bowl and feeding it every day after school.[/b][/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]许多孩子在游乐场赢得一条金鱼当奖品后会很高兴,开心地将它放进碗里,每天放学后去喂它。 [/b][/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]But they could have been guilty of animal cruelty without even knowing it.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/105384.html]Goldfish[/url] might get a bad reputation of being boring pets - and having rubbish memories - but they're more clued up than we realise.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]In Switzerland, it has been illegal to own one solitary goldfish since 2008, when the country introduced a whole host of animal rights' legislation.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Why? Because fish are actually 'social' creatures. In the sea they swim in shoals, so it makes perfect sense that they would need companions.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The Swiss government believes it is cruel to force them to live in isolation - but it doesn't just apply to fish.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Other social creatures like guinea pigs and budgerigars are also covered by this legislation.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Switzerland even has companies which pair guinea pigs up with [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/105384.html]partners[/url] when the inevitable happens and one of the original couple dies.[/size][/font]
