3月份躲过暗杀企图的墨西哥美洲豹保护者,周四在一份报告发布会上被称为“活奇迹”。该报告记录了2025年墨西哥共有10名环保活动人士遭杀害。

席卷墨西哥的毒品战争暴力也让环保活动人士付出了代价,其中许多人来自原住民社区。墨西哥因其物种和生态系统的多样性而被称为“生物多样性超级大国”。

在墨西哥环境法中心(CEMDA)发布报告的新闻发布会上,活动人士兼记者埃里克·萨拉乔回忆了他于去年3月11日在墨西哥西部纳亚里特州家中遭遇的武装袭击。

“我对杀手说了句‘早上好’,”他回忆道,“就在那时,他用手枪开了火。”

作为致力于保护这种濒危猫科动物的民间组织“美洲豹联盟”的负责人,他表示,自己随后按下了联邦政府因此前收到威胁而为他配备的紧急报警按钮。

他在超过25分钟后才获得挽救生命的医疗救助。

州检察官办公室公布了据称是袭击过程的视频,并悬赏10万比索征集相关线索。

美洲豹联盟在社交媒体上发布的一份声明中谴责了此次袭击,并要求进行“立即、彻底且透明的调查”。

该组织写道:“显然,由于他对公民参与和保护我们地区自然遗产的承诺,他成了一个令人棘手的目标。作为一个社会,我们既不应该也不能接受这种现实。”

除10起谋杀案外,墨西哥环境法中心还记录了135起“袭击事件”,从“污蔑”和“诽谤”案件到“抢劫”和“监视”不等。

墨西哥环境法中心执行主任古斯塔沃·阿拉尼斯表示,墨西哥政府是针对环保活动人士的“袭击的主要实施者”。

根据该报告,一系列联邦、州和市级当局参与了76起袭击案件——占记录在案的威胁事件的56.2%。

尽管如此,该组织在报告中澄清,在已登记的10起谋杀案中,没有任何一起有国家工作人员参与的记录。

据墨西哥环境法中心统计,过去十年间,墨西哥共有199名环保人士因捍卫自然资源和生态系统而遭杀害。

Mexican environmentalist survives assassination attempt caught on video: “I told the hitman ‘good morning’”

A defender of Mexican jaguars who survived an assassination attempt in March was described on Thursday as a “living miracle” during the presentation of a report that documented the killing of 10 activists in the country in 2025.

The drug war violence convulsing Mexico also takes a toll on environmental activists, many from indigenous communities. The country is considered “megadiverse” for its variety of species and ecosystems.

Speaking at the press conference for the Mexican Center for Environmental Law (CEMDA) where the report was released, the activist and journalist Erik Saracho recounted the armed attack he survived last March 11 at his home in the western Mexican state of Nayarit.

“I told the hitman ‘good morning,’” he recalled, “and at that moment he opened fire with a pistol.”

The director of the Jaguar Alliance, a civil organization dedicated to protecting the endangered feline, said he then pressed the panic button the federal government gave him due to previous threats.

Over 25 minutes passed before he received the medical help that saved his life.

The state prosecutor’s office released video of the alleged attack and offered a reward of 100,000 pesos for information.

In a statement posted to social media, Jaguar Alliance condemned the attack and demanded an “immediate, exhaustive, and transparent investigation.”

“He is someone who—apparently due to his commitment to civic engagement and the protection of our region’s natural heritage—has become an inconvenient target, a reality that, as a society, we neither should nor can accept,” the group wrote.

Beyond 10 killings, Cemda recorded 135 “aggressions,” ranging from cases of “stigmatization” and “defamation” to “robbery” and “surveillance.”

Gustavo Alanis, executive director of Cemda, said that the Mexican state is “the primary perpetrator of aggressions” against environmental activists.

According to the report, an array of federal, state, and municipal authorities participated in the 76 cases of aggression — 56.2% of the documented threats.

Nonetheless, the organization clarified in the report that state agents weren’t documented participating in any of the 10 registered homicides.

According to Cemda, over the past decade 199 environmentalists have been murdered in Mexico in relation to their defense of natural resources and ecosystems.
