Global consequences for wildlife conservation after the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic 2020-09-19 .txt text/plain 1947 112 54 We propose four actions that should be taken into account to protect and conserve wildlife in this pandemic era: wildlife "wet" markets must close; human interference with wildlife must be reduced; bats and pangolins must be conserved and not blamed; and Chinese traditional medicine must be more controlled. Although some authors have suggested that the origin of this new coronavirus could be a Chinese lab (Xiao and Xiao 2020) , new evidence has focused on the recombination of SARS-CoV-2 by a potential spillover from bats to Sunda pangolins (Manis javanica), that have a weak immune system and can be easily attacked by new pathogens (Cazzolla Gatti 2020a). Then, pangolins are sold in Chinese wet markets like the one in Wuhan because, with thousands of other critically endangered animals and plants, they are thought to be essential elements of traditional Chinese medicine (Cazzolla Gatti 2020a). ./cache/cord-348486-3ji6nwer.txt ./txt/cord-348486-3ji6nwer.txt
