A Japanese theme park which froze 5,000 sea creatures into the floor of an ice rink was forced to close the attraction last Sunday after a public backlash.

日本一家主题公园在冰面下冻了5000条鱼，这一行为引起了公众的强烈抵制，被迫于上周日关闭。

Fish, crabs¹ and other shellfish were embedded² in the ice as part of a special winter attraction, called "Freezing Port," at Japan's Space World theme park.

在日本的“太空世界”主题公园中，鱼类、螃蟹和其他贝壳类生物被埋入冰层，作为一个被称为“冰之水族馆”的冬日特别景致。

The park advertised it as a "world first" and posted images of the fish on its official Facebook site with captions³ including "I am d... d... drowning, s ... s... suffocating⁴."

该公园在宣传广告上自称是“世界第一”，并在其脸书官方主页上贴出图片还附上文字：“我快溺死了...呼吸困难....”

Space World manager Toshimi Takeda told CNN the reaction on social media had been brutal⁵ once news of the attraction was broadcast on local television.

“太空世界”主题公园经理武田俊美在接受CNN采访时表示，当该景点的新闻在本地电视台播放后，人们在社交媒体上普遍都觉得这太残忍了。

"We were shocked to hear the reaction as the ice skate rink was very popular since it opened two weeks ago, we had an unprecedented⁶ number of visitors," he said.

他说，“两周前开业，溜冰场已经众所周知，我们对于这个反应也十分震惊，而且还迎来了史无前例的游客。”

"But we had endless opinions about the project, we were shocked ... We are sorry for the project and decided⁷ to close the rink on that night."

“不过对于这个项目，我们还有很多想法，我们太震惊了。我们感到很抱歉，决定当晚就关闭了溜冰场。”

Takeda told CNN the park would unfreeze the skate rink to remove the fish, hold an "appropriate religious service" and then reuse them as fertilizer.

武田俊美向CNN透露，公园会解冻冰场，把鱼都撤走，并为这些死鱼办一场体面的祭祀，最后把它们用作肥料。

He added the fish were purchased at a local fish market, and were dead before they were frozen.

他补充说道，这些鱼是在本地的鱼市购买的，在冰冻前就已经死了。
