嫌擄鴿勒贖 利用「車手鴿」取款
更新日期:2010/08/18 20:01
詐騙或是擄人勒贖集團，常需要有人來充當拿錢的車手，不過您聽過用鴿子來當車手的事情嗎?台南縣警方破獲一起擄鴿勒贖案，嫌犯為了逃避查緝，竟然利用自己養的鴿子充當取款的幫手，警方最後是以智取，將嫌犯逮捕到案。
這一籠7隻鴿子，是被警方救出的肉票，警方說，嫌犯是在新化知義山區的草堆中架設鳥網，抓走別人放飛的賽鴿，並向鴿主勒贖，為了增加鴿子落網機會，還以彈弓驚嚇牠們，至於這些夾鏈袋，則是嫌犯把自己飼養的鴿子當車手，綁在牠們身上，用來取贖款的。
利用鴿子會自己飛回家的特性，嫌犯自以為可以拿到贖款，還可以逃避警方查緝，但這手法當然被識破。
嫌犯自稱是因為自己養的鴿子經常被擄鴿勒贖，不甘心，才從被害人變成加害人，還說是第一次作案就落網，不過由於鴿舍內還有來路不明的腳環，警方也不排除還有其他受害者。

In the
mammalianmammalian model of sex determination, embryos are considered to be sexually indifferent until the transient action of a sex-determining gene initiates gonadal differentiation. Although this model is thought to apply to all vertebrates, this has yet to be established. Here we have examined three lateral gynandromorph chickens (a rare, naturally occurring phenomenon in which one side of the animal appears male and the other female) to investigate the sex-determining mechanism in birds. These studies demonstrated that gynandromorph birds are genuine male:female chimaeras, and indicated that male and female avian somatic cells may have an inherent sex identity. To test this hypothesis, we transplanted presumptive mesoderm between embryos of reciprocal sexes to generate embryos containing male:female chimaeric gonads. In contrast to the outcome for mammalian mixed-sex chimaeras, in chicken mixed-sex chimaeras the donor cells were excluded from the functional structures of the host gonad. In an example where female tissue was transplanted into a male host, donor cells contributing to the developing testis retained a female identity and expressed a marker of female function. Our study demonstrates that avian somatic cells possess an inherent sex identity and that, in birds, sexual differentiation is substantively cell autonomous.

滅鼠變殺鳥 農委會︰必要之惡 － 有沒有想過生態系中某一種物種族群數量失控的原因是什麼？
滅鼠變殺鳥 農委會︰必要之惡
（圖由林文隆提供） 保育團體籲檢討藥量〔記者劉力仁／台北報導〕環保署和農委會每年十一月舉行全國滅鼠週，進行野外鳥類救傷十幾年的愛鳥人士林文隆發現，每年都有保育類猛禽誤捕食毒老鼠而魂斷台灣，建議檢討施藥量是否過當。農委會回應，滅鼠導致少數猛禽死亡是必要之惡，不然鼠滿為患，帶來疾病，對民眾威脅更大。
台中縣野鳥救傷保育學會研究組長林文隆表示，毒餌成分主要是抗凝血劑，老鼠吃了之後會因為內出血導致口渴，白天就出來找水喝，因中毒走路搖搖晃晃，容易變成猛禽捕食的對象。
林文隆發現今年喪命最多的是短耳鴞及長耳鴞，都屬於農委會公告珍貴稀有保育類野生動物。兩種猛禽為冬候鳥，每年九月開始從日本、韓國、俄羅斯甚至西伯利亞飛抵台，隔年四月離台。
林文隆去年十一月滅鼠週過後，在中部平原地區，拾獲十二隻保育類猛禽屍體，包括短耳鴞、長耳鴞等，他最近架設錄影機監看巢箱的貓頭鷹，也錄到公貓頭鷹將捕捉到的老鼠帶回巢內餵食剛出生的貓頭鷹，一個小時之後，三隻小貓頭鷹陸續死亡，情況一年比一年嚴重。
林文隆建議官方建立田間野鼠密度資料，並且訂出滅鼠的標準，例如每公頃有多少隻田鼠才需要投藥，並且加強對食物鏈的研究。
農委會稱鼠患威脅更大負責撲殺田鼠的農委會防檢局副局長費雯綺表示，老鼠是很多傳染病的來源，農委會必須進行數量控制及衛生防治。根據農委會進行的田鼠數量調查，田鼠繁殖力很強，所以不會改變滅鼠政策。
台南市獸醫師公會理事長陳培中建議農委會滅鼠政策雖要延續，但技巧要檢討，譬如規定偏遠地區盡量不要施放毒餌，避免誤殺猛禽。
