In a recent exclusive report, a tapir imported from Japan to Taiwan sadly died. After inspection, it was revealed that the tapir had a large area of abrasion on its head and a body temperature of 41 degrees. Experts believe the head abrasion may have been caused by external impact during transportation, while the high body temperature could be due to the unsuitable transport environment or prolonged high-pressure state inducing stress response. These factors combined led to the tapir's death, sparking concerns over animal transport conditions. Animal welfare groups are urging for stricter international animal transport regulations to ensure the safety and comfort of animals during transit, suggesting that transport companies should provide professional animal care personnel and adopt more advanced equipment and technology to prevent similar tragedies from happening again.
