广东人爱吃野味是全国有名的，一般来讲，普通百姓吃大众野味，比如兔子，猫之类的，可是你说的这些可都是受法律保护的野生动物，食用它们是违法的。但正是因为这样，一些有钱人就以此来炫耀自己的经济实力或向来宾显示自己的诚意。我觉得这种行为特别不人道，实在应该被禁止。

But the ones you're talking about were all protected wild animals. Eating them is illegal. But it's just because of this that some rich people use this as a chance to show off their wealth, or to show their clients their sincerity. I think it's really inhumane, and it really should be forbidden.
