善待动物组织已致函庞克瑟托尼土拨鼠俱乐部主席汤姆·邓克尔 (Tom Dunkel),表示愿意为菲尔提供“天气揭晓”蛋糕。
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has offered to provide a vegan “Weather Reveal” cake to replace Punxsutawney Phil in the annual Groundhog Day festivities.
善待动物组织提出在一年一度的土拨鼠日庆祝活动中提供纯素“天气揭晓”蛋糕,以取代庞克苏托尼·菲尔 (Punxsutawney Phil)。
In a letter to The Punxsutawney Groundhog Club president Tom Dunkel on Wednesday, PETA said that Phil and his family are exploited for entertainment and that the groundhog doesn't get to enjoy a life in the wild.
周三,善待动物组织在写给庞克萨托尼土拨鼠俱乐部主席汤姆·邓克尔的一封信中表示,菲尔和他的家人受到娱乐剥削,土拨鼠无法享受野外生活。
The organization said that Phil is transported to Gobbler’s Knob, subjected to a noisy announcer, screaming crowds, and flashing lights against all his natural instincts.
该组织表示,菲尔被传送到了高布勒的旋钮,受到喧闹的播音员、尖叫的人群和违背他所有本能的闪光灯的影响。
“If approached in his natural habitat, he would run away in fear, not volunteer to live year-round in captivity, unable to do anything that’s natural and important to him like hibernate or burrow — just to be a town’s once-a-year fake meteorologist,” PETA wrote.
“如果在它的自然栖息地被接近,它会害怕地逃跑,不会自愿全年被圈养,无法做任何对它来说自然且重要的事情,比如冬眠或挖洞——只是为了成为镇上一年一度的动物。”假气象学家,”善待动物组织写道。
The “Weather Reveal” cake would be cut to expose one of two colors, blue or pink, much like popular online gender reveal videos.
“天气揭晓”蛋糕将被切割成蓝色或粉色两种颜色之一,就像流行的在线性别揭晓视频一样。
Blue would mean six more weeks of winter, pink would indicate and early spring.
蓝色表示冬天还有六周,粉色表示早春。
It’s the latest idea from PETA to replace Phil. Last year, PETA suggested a “giant gold coin” toss for the weather prediction.
这是善待动物组织取代菲尔的最新想法。去年,善待动物组织建议用“巨型金币”来预测天气预报。
In previous years, the animal right organization has suggested replacing Phil with a weather-forecasting robot.
前几年,动物权利组织曾建议用天气预报机器人取代菲尔。
Groundhog Day is the biggest day of the year for the people of Punxsutawney and a large venue generator for the region.
土拨鼠日是庞克苏托尼人民一年中最重要的一天,也是该地区的大型活动场所。
This annual event began in 1886 and is a big tourist event for the town in Jefferson County with thousands of people visiting every year.
这项一年一度的活动始于 1886 年,是杰斐逊县小镇的一项大型旅游活动,每年都有数千人参观。
If Phil sees his shadow at Gobbler’s Knob, there will be an extra six weeks of winter. If he doesn't, an early spring is predicted.
如果菲尔在高布勒旋钮处看到自己的影子,冬天就会多六周。如果他不这样做,预计春天会提前。
Punxsutawney is about an hour and a half from Pittsburgh.
庞克瑟托尼 (Punxsutawney) 距匹兹堡约一个半小时车程。
PETA’s letter to Dunkel reads:

Dear Mr. Dunkel:
亲爱的邓克尔先生:
I’m writing again on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals—PETA entities have more than 9 million members and supporters globally, including many thousands in Pennsylvania—with a sweet new offer: Retire Phil to a reputable sanctuary with his family, and every year we’ll provide a giant vegan “Weather Reveal” cake (it would be the first in the world this year) to share with revelers at Gobbler’s Knob. If the inside of the cake is blue, there will be six more weeks of winter. If it’s pink, there will be an early spring. This would allow you to still make tourism dough while showing Phil a slice of decency. It would be at least as accurate as asking a groundhog what to expect in a way that doesn’t even reflect his nature.
我代表善待动物组织再次写信——善待动物组织实体在全球拥有超过 900 万会员和支持者,其中包括宾夕法尼亚州的数千名——并提出一个甜蜜的新提议:让菲尔与家人一起退休到一个信誉良好的庇护所,每年我们都会提供一个巨大的纯素“Weather Reveal”蛋糕(今年将是世界上第一个),与 Gobbler's Knob 的狂欢者分享。如果蛋糕内部是蓝色的,那么冬天还会有六个星期。如果是粉红色的,那就是早春了。这可以让你在为菲尔做点正派的同时还能赚到旅游业的钱。这至少和问土拨鼠会发生什么一样准确,但甚至不能反映土拨鼠的本性。
You batter believe that for Phil, Groundhog Day is no piece of cake. Groundhogs are shy prey animals who, when allowed, actively avoid humans. Yet, year after year, Phil is transported to Gobler’s Knob, whisked on stage, and subjected to a noisy announcer, screaming crowds, and flashing lights against all his natural instincts. If approached in his natural habitat, he would run away in fear, not volunteer to live year-round in captivity, unable to do anything that’s natural and important to him like hibernate or burrow—just to be a town’s once-a-year fake meteorologist.
你一定会相信,对于菲尔来说,《土拨鼠之日》绝非小菜一碟。土拨鼠是害羞的猎物动物,在允许的情况下,它们会主动避开人类。然而,年复一年,菲尔被传送到高布勒旋钮,迅速登上舞台,并受到喧闹的播音员、尖叫的人群和违背他所有本能的闪光灯的影响。如果在它的自然栖息地被接近,它会害怕地逃跑,而不是自愿全年被圈养,无法做任何对它来说自然且重要的事情,比如冬眠或挖洞——只是为了成为小镇一年一度的假货。气象学家。
If our suggestions for alternatives to exploiting an intelligent, sensitive animal are starting to feel like Groundhog Day, it’s because in the 21st century, as more and more people realize that every animal is an individual with their own interests, needs, and personalities—as well as being able to feel pain, fear, joy, and love—we know that locals and tourists who genuinely respect Phil want him to live his life doing what’s natural to him.
如果我们对利用聪明、敏感的动物的替代方案的建议开始感觉像土拨鼠之日,那是因为在 21 世纪,越来越多的人意识到每只动物都是一个个体,有自己的兴趣、需求和个性——就像以及能够感受到痛苦、恐惧、快乐和爱——我们知道,真正尊重菲尔的当地人和游客希望他过着对他来说很自然的生活。
We’re not going to sugarcoat it: It’s high time for Punxsutawney to rise to the occasion and follow the example of kind communities like the Village of Babylon, New York, which has a willing human prognosticator in a costume to protect—not exploit—our fellow animals. If you don’t like this idea, the icing on the cake is that we have another offer: We’d be happy to send you a large thermometer for Gobbler’s Knob instead that reads, “If it’s still cold, it’s still winter,” which would aptly represent the absurdity of the current form of this tired old spectacle. We look forward to hearing from you, as always.
我们不会粉饰它:现在是庞克苏托尼挺身而出的时候了,效仿纽约巴比伦村等善良社区的榜样,那里有一位愿意保护(而不是剥削)服装的人类预言家。我们的动物同胞。如果您不喜欢这个主意,锦上添花的是我们还有另一个优惠:我们很乐意向您发送一个用于 Gobbler's Knob 的大温度计,而不是上面写着:“如果它仍然很冷,那么它仍然是冬天,”这恰如其分地体现了这种陈旧景象目前形式的荒谬性。我们一如既往地期待您的来信。
Very truly yours,
非常真实的你,
