A Reduced Punishment
Unfortunately, the family’s sadness was made worse by what came next. Although Yun admitted the mistake to the authorities, her husband was still reportedly punished. Zhang Haibin, a director at the local forest police station, said that they would give him a reduced punishment because of his family’s active cooperation.
The specific consequences of his actions weren’t elaborated on by Zhang. Hopefully, Yun’s husband, who was identified as Little Black’s keeper in a China Global Television Network report, didn’t receive jail time. Many others have been detained for violating the country’s Wild Animal Protection Law before.
