長期載客不堪重負 大象被熱死死不瞑目

An investigation has begun into the death of a female elephant which collapsed and died at the roadside while carrying tourists to an ancient Cambodian temple.
柬埔寨一座古廟前，一頭母象馱着遊客時，忽而轟然倒地猝死路邊。現已開始着手調查母象的死因。

Sambo the elephant collapsed of a fatal heart attack afterferrying two tourists - one at a time - to a temple in the famous Angkor Wat complex.
大象名爲扇貝，來回分批駝運兩名遊客後心髒病突發，猝死於著名的吳哥窟羣建築前。

She had been working for 40 minutes in scorching heat that had reached 40 degrees - and a veterinarian concluded that she had died of a heart attack ‘due to high temperatures, heat exhaustion and lack of wind that would have helped to cool her.’
扇貝在40度炙熱高溫下連續工作了40分鐘，獸醫說是“由於高溫中暑、不通風無法降溫而死於心臟病突發”。

Now animal lovers are demanding an investigation as to why the elephant, aged between 40 and 45 years, was forced to continue carrying tourists when the temperatures were so high and there was no wind.
動物愛好者要求調查爲何大象年紀都40到45歲了，高溫天那麼熱、又不通風，還要被逼迫駝遊客。

扇貝自2001年起服務於吳哥大象公司。據悉，很多遊客目睹大象倒在路邊都潸然淚下。

A petition calling for the end of elephant riding to the famous temples has already gathered more than 10,000 hant Valley Project, designed to protect Cambodia’s elephants, has called for regulated working conditions.
