近年来，随着异宠热潮兴起，爬行动物如蜥蜴、蛇、龟等成为部分爱好者追捧的对象。然而，在这股风潮背后，非法饲养和交易问题日益严重。所谓‘起底爬虫市场’，即揭露当前爬虫宠物产业链中存在的无证繁育、走私进口、虚假宣传及缺乏动物福利保障等乱象。许多卖家通过社交平台或地下渠道销售受保护物种，甚至将濒危野生动物伪装成人工繁育个体出售。买家往往缺乏专业知识，导致动物因不当饲养而死亡，或被随意弃养，造成生态风险。此外，国内对爬行动物饲养的法律法规尚不完善，执法难度大，监管存在盲区。专家呼吁加强立法、明确饲养许可制度，并提升公众对野生动物保护的认知，从源头遏制非法爬虫贸易，推动行业走向合法化与规范化。
In recent years, the rising trend of keeping exotic pets has led to increased demand for reptiles such as lizards, snakes, and turtles. However, this popularity has also fueled a surge in illegal breeding and trading activities. ‘Exposing the reptile pet market’ reveals widespread issues within the industry, including unlicensed breeding, wildlife smuggling, false advertising, and poor animal welfare standards. Many sellers use social media or underground channels to trade protected or even endangered species, often misrepresenting wild-caught animals as captive-bred. Buyers frequently lack proper knowledge, resulting in high mortality rates due to improper care or irresponsible abandonment—posing ecological threats if non-native species are released into the wild. Moreover, China’s regulatory framework for reptile ownership remains underdeveloped, with enforcement challenges and legal gray areas. Experts urge stronger legislation, a clear licensing system for pet ownership, and greater public awareness of wildlife conservation to curb illegal reptile trade and promote a legal, ethical, and sustainable exotic pet industry.
