A ram from the Red Book was slaughtered and posted on the Internet

An incident that shocked and outraged not only internet users but also the entire public occurred in Surkhandarya region. In the Chosh mahalla area, a rare creature of nature – the Tien Shan mountain sheep listed in the Red Book – was brutally killed. Footage of the incident spread across social media. The video not only brought tears, but also cast doubt on the principles of honesty, legality, and humanity, wrote ekolog.uz.

The footage clearly shows the animal being caught, its throat cut, and then slaughtered. Seeing such a scene is not only unpleasant, but also emotionally painful. Even someone who doesn't like animals would rethink their inner world after witnessing this.

The Ecological Party issued an official statement, emphasizing that such actions are not only violations of the law but direct attacks on the biosphere. They also demanded accountability for those who filmed and distributed the video. Because every rare member of nature is a universal heritage of mankind. Violence against it is violence against all humanity.

On one hand, although laws are getting stricter every year, such incidents still happen — which is both surprising and upsetting. On the other hand, it shows that no punishment can stop innate cruelty.

In the Ecological Party’s appeal, it is emphasized that lawbreakers are not only those who killed the animal. Those who filmed and distributed the content are also among the guilty. Because they send others the wrong message — "this can be done."

According to the law, killing animals listed in the Red Book is a serious crime. It may lead to imprisonment, fines, and even material and moral compensation. But what society demands is not only financial punishment — it desires moral purification.

Because such cases, above all, stain the morality of future generations. Children and teenagers are watching such videos online. For them, animals are not just cartoon characters, but real beings with hearts. If we portray such cruelty as “normal,” what will their future be like?

From this perspective, the Surkhandarya incident is not just a random case. It is a warning signal of moral decline in society. It is a reason to reflect and realize that it is not too late.

According to experts, the Tien Shan mountain sheep has special significance due to its power, appearance, and rarity. Its extinction is equivalent to breaking a natural link. In nature, every creature has its function. The sheep, the bird, and the livestock — they all complete each other in the ecosystem.

This incident exposed not only ecological, but also moral problems. The law is not weak. But if those responsible for applying it are negligent, then the law remains just words on paper. At such times, every citizen must recognize their responsibility.

Citizens, especially young people, should not share such videos when they see them — instead, they must report them to the relevant authorities. This is not only a civic duty, but also a sign of human dignity.

Nature is our home. Every living being in it is its ornament. Preserving them is building a healthy environment for future generations. The society we want tomorrow must be shaped by what we do today. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
