Colbert County Animal Control officers are investigating a bizarre cruelty case. They say someone is shooting animals with a hunting bow.

美国科尔伯特县动物管理局的官员们正在调查一起极其残忍的事件,他们发现有人用猎弓射杀动物。

At a glance, the Sheffield neighborhood on 10th Avenue seems pretty quiet. But according to Colbert County Animal Control Officer Anthony Wilbanks, there's a hunter lurking among the residents.

乍看之下,临近第10大街的谢菲尔德小城显得颇为宁静。然而据科尔伯特县动物管理局的官员安东尼·威尔班克斯(Anthony Wilbanks)称,在城镇居民间潜伏着一名捕猎杀手。

"It's been an on-going thing for over a year now," stated Wilbanks. "We've had a duck with an arrow through it; it had to be humanly euthanized. We had a hawk with an arrow through it; it was still flying last we seen, and several squirrels with an arrow through their body."

威尔班克斯称:“此类事情已经持续了1年以上。曾有一只鸭子被弓箭贯穿,最后我们不得不对其进行安乐死。还有一只被弓箭贯穿的鹰,在我们看到它的时候它还在飞。还有一些被弓箭贯穿的松鼠。”

That's right -- an arrow. Wilbanks found this white rabbit under a home in the 3000 block of 10th Avenue; shot once with a practice arrow -- right through its head.

没有错,这是一支弓箭,是练习用的弓箭,正好贯穿了它的头部。威尔班克斯在第10大街的3000街区的一户人家房屋之下发现了这只白色的兔子。

"Oh, the rabbit is extremely lucky," said Wilbanks. "It went right behind one eye and out the cheek area. It missed nasal passages, it missed all of the main arteries and hit nothing vital inside its head."

威尔班克斯说:“噢,这只兔子真是太幸运了。这只弓箭正好从其眼睛下方射入,穿过了脸颊部分,并没有伤害到鼻腔,而且还避开了所有主要动脉,对头部内没有造成任何致命伤。”

Veterinarian's at Quad-Cities Animal Hospital were able to remove the arrow – finding no permanent damage.

四角城市动物医院(Quad-Cities Animal Hospital)的兽医摘除了射中该兔子的弓箭,并发现该弓箭没有对兔子造成永久性损伤。

Wilbanks wants to find the person responsible.

威尔班克斯希望能够找到这个始作俑者。

"If we find them we are going to try and make this a felony. Because animal cruelty with intent is a felony and is punishable by up to a year in prison," Wilbanks explained.

威尔班克斯解释道:“如果我们发现了始作俑者,我们会将其定为重罪。因为蓄意虐待动物是一项重罪,最多可判1年有期徒刑”。

The rabbit is now healing before going to an adoptive family. Lucky to be alive, and lucky someone found her when they did.

该兔子目前正在康复中,随后会被送往收养家庭领养。这只兔子很幸运地活了下来,并且很幸运地被人发现。
