熊陷饥荒 挖坟吃死人

A shortage of traditional food sources has forced bears in Russia's Arctic Circle region to eat human corpses, the Guardian reports. One local said the bears are using graveyards as "giant refrigerators". From a distance, what looked like a rather large man in a fur coat leaning tenderly over the grave of a loved one turned out to be a bear eating a corpse, to the horror of the two women who came across the scene in the village of Vezhnya Tchova. Russian bears have become so desperate for food after a scorching summer that they have started digging up and eating corpses in municipal cemeteries, according to alarmed officials. The bears' traditional food sources -- mushrooms, berries and frogs -- have almost completely disappeared, they added.

据英国《卫报》报道，由于传统食物缺乏，生活在俄罗斯北极圈附近的熊竟然开始吃人的尸体，有当地人甚至戏称墓地成了熊的大冰箱。一天，温震亚·托瓦村的两位妇女发现不远处有一位体型魁梧、身着毛皮外套的男子温柔地斜倚在亲人的坟墓旁，走近了却发现原来是一只熊在那里吃尸体！接到报案的俄罗斯官员称，经历了一个炙热的夏天，熊变得饥不择食，才会跑去挖坟吃尸体。据悉，像蘑菇、浆果、以及青蛙这样的传统食物早就被它们吃了个精光。
