国家动物博物馆一件莽山原矛头蝮标本在8月28日遭到破坏1。根据博物馆记录,该标本在孩子和家长的玩闹中表面鳞片、舌头和腹部受损1。这件国家一级保护野生动物的标本由蛇种发现者陈远辉捐赠,承载着一段鲜为人知的科研故事。
1984年,陈远辉发现了这一新蛇种,却在过程中被蛇咬伤1。毒蛇的毒液导致他昏迷"三天三夜",最终中指部分坏死,不得不截除1。这一科学发现最终在1990年被正式宣布,莽山原矛头蝮成为中国第50种毒蛇1。
博物馆强烈谴责了这一破坏行为1。据了解,该馆自2009年开放以来,这是首次发生标本被破坏的情况1。完整的监控视频已经保存了事发全程1。
A valuable specimen of the Mangshan pit viper was damaged on August 28 when children and adults roughhoused near the display at the National Animal Museum1. The specimen's surface scales, tongue, and abdomen sustained cracks and other injuries during the incident1.
The damaged specimen holds profound scientific significance. It was donated by Chen Yuanhui, the herpetologist who discovered this snake species in 19841. During that discovery expedition, Chen was bitten by the snake and lost consciousness for three consecutive days due to the venom's effects; his middle finger subsequently became necrotic and had to be amputated1. The species was officially designated as China's 50th venomous snake in 19901. The National Animal Museum has strongly condemned the destructive behavior and called on the public to observe proper conduct during museum visits1. The museum has maintained complete surveillance footage of the entire incident1, marking the first such damage to a specimen in the 17 years since the museum opened in 20091.
