中国最近兴起一股潮流,那就是把活生生的动物密封在塑胶袋里拿来当作带来好运的幸运钥匙圈。然而,看完以下这些产品的模样,会让你真的怀疑,这到底是幸运还是不幸啊…
你可以在中国一些大城市的车站外面看到很多小贩在卖这种一个45块台币 (美金1.5元) 的幸运钥匙圈。

你没看错,里面装的是真的乌龟。
据说每个钥匙圈里的氧气和养分都足够让这些动物生存。

这些钥匙圈的大小装得下小鱼,还有年幼的中国软骨乌龟。

中国摊贩表示这些动物都可以在钥匙圈的塑胶袋里活个几天,但当他们袋子里的氧气和养分总会用完,最后还是会被闷死或是饿死。
![According to some vendors, the animals can survive for a few days in the bag. Eventually though, they use up all the oxygen and nutrients in the bag. They then alternately suffocate or starve to death.](http://teepr.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/44_desktop-1426604038.jpg)

当然中国的动物保护团体也痛批这种商业手法既「残忍」又「不人道」。
![As you might imagine, animal rights groups in China have condemned these live animals keychains as "cruel," and "inhumane."](http://teepr.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/desktop-1426604036.jpg)

但这并没有阻止这些动物钥匙圈的高人气,尤其大受中国年轻人欢迎,有些认为这些钥匙圈很时尚。
![Still, that hasn't stopped sales of the keychains throughout China. They're especially popular with young people who see them as a fashionable accessory.](http://teepr.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/desktop-1426604034.jpg)

关于这种东西,其实只要东西没有人买,就不会助长任何的消费行为,可惜还是有消费者会去购买,希望这样的风潮可以尽快消失呀!
