其实非典以后，人们都谈虎色变，野味市场受到很大冲击。以前广东野味饭店遍地开花。这次我去，饭店是偷偷摸摸卖给我们的。而且，现在广东人的饮食观念也有了很大的转变。好多人也觉得吃野味是非法，非人道，而且不健康的行为，并不像以前那样盲目地认为吃野味很补。

Actually, after SARS, people were really skittish about this stuff, and the market for game was badly affected. It used to be that game restaurants were all over in Guangdong. On this visit, the restaurant sneakily sold the stuff to us. And what's more, Cantonese people's ideas about their diet have really changed a lot. A lot of people think that eating game is illegal, inhumane and unhealthy. It's not at all like in the past, where people blindly assumed that eating game was very nutritious.

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。

Cantonese people are famous all over China for loving to eat game. Generally, ordinary people eat common game, like rabbits, cats and such. 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.
