最有耐心宠物主 东京“乌仙人”偕巨龟慢步

【大纪元2017年06月09日讯】(大纪元记者苏琳编译报导)在繁华的东京银座,每隔两三天,都可以看到64岁的三谷久生(Hisao Mitani)带着他养育了21年的“蹦将”(Bon-chan)在大街上散步,这有什么特别之处呢?

原来蹦将是一只巨大的苏卡达陆龟,重达70公斤。它还有让汽车停下来的本领,倒不是它挡了道,而是司机们看到它常会停车观看或拍照。很多东京市民都熟识这一老一少,因为从银座到月岛这三里路,是他们固定的散步路线。

有时蹦将会身穿亮丽的专属衣服,和三谷手提的包包配成“父子装”。它喜欢吃蔬果,市民们见到它,经常会用胡萝卜、菜叶等来招待它。

三谷久生经营着一家丧葬服务中心,蹦将是那里的固定迎宾员,哀伤的老老少少在进门后总能看到它。

“有人可能会说,在丧葬服务社的门口放一只大乌龟,这太荒谬了;但即便人们很悲伤,见到它都会露出微笑,所以我觉得让它在那里不是坏主意。”三谷久生接受法新社采访时说,20年前,妻子从宠物店把蹦将买回了家,“我知道它会长得很大,但没想到能长到这么大”。

三谷没有儿子,因此他和蹦将情同父子。“我们是这家里仅有的男人。”他笑说。而三谷也得到了一个绰号——“龟仙人”(kame sennin),不过他也说,自己不会像蹦将那样长寿,“我听说这种乌龟可以活到80岁,所以我肯定会比他先走”。
