　 法國環(huán)境部長宣布逐步禁止將野生動物用于巡回馬戲團，禁止在海洋公園圈養(yǎng)海豚和虎鯨，禁止在皮草養(yǎng)殖場飼養(yǎng)水貂。”法國生態(tài)轉(zhuǎn)換部長在周二的一場新聞發(fā)布會上說到，熊，老虎，獅子，大象以及其他野生動物以后再也不會允許在巡回馬戲團出現(xiàn)。

　In addition, starting immediately, France’s three marine parks won’t be able to bring in nor breed dolphins and killer whales any more, she said. “It is time to open a new era in our relationship with these (wild) animals,” she said, arguing that animal welfare is a priority.

　此外，她說，從現(xiàn)在開始，法國的三個海洋公園將不能再引進或繁殖海豚和虎鯨。“是時候為我們與這些野生動物的關(guān)系開啟一個新紀元了。”并且她認為動物福利是首要任務(wù)。

　Pompili said the measures will also bring an end to mink farming, where animals are raised for their fur, within the next five years. The ban does not apply to wild animals in other permanent shows and in zoos.

　龐皮里表示，這些措施還將在未來五年內(nèi)取締為了獲得毛皮的水貂養(yǎng)殖。這項禁令不適用于其他永久性演出和動物園的野生動物。

　Pompili did not set any precise date for the ban in travelling circuses, saying the process should start “as soon as possible.” She promised solutions will be found for each animal “on a case-by-case basis.”

　龐皮里沒有為旅行馬戲團的禁令設(shè)定任何確切的日期，她說該議程應(yīng) “盡快”開始。她承諾將“專案專辦” 為每種動物都找到解決方案。

　The French government will implement an 8 million-euro ($9.2 million) package to help people working in circuses and marine parks find other jobs.“That transition will be spread over several years, because it will change the lives of many people," she said.

　法國政府將實施一項 800 萬歐元(920萬美元)的計劃，幫助在馬戲團和海洋公園工作的人找到其他工作。“這一過渡將在幾年內(nèi)逐步實施，因為它將改變許多人的生活，”她提到。
