Dozens of smuggled parrots stuffed in plastic bottles have been found on a ship docked in Indonesia's eastern region of Papua.
在停靠在印度尼西亞東部巴布亞的一艘船上，發現了數十隻裝滿塑料瓶的走私鸚鵡。
Police said the crew discovered 64 live parrots and 10 dead birds after hearing noises coming from inside a large box.
警方說，機組人員在聽到一個大盒子裡傳來的聲音後，發現了64隻活鸚鵡和10隻死鳥。
Indonesia is home to the highest number of threatened bird species in Asia and a rampant illegal trade in birds.
印度尼西亞是亞洲受威脅鳥類數量最多的國家，而且鳥類的非法交易也非常猖獗。
Birds are sold domestically in giant avian markets or smuggled abroad. The destination of the parrots found on Thursday morning in the port town of Fakfak was unclear, local police spokesman Dodik Junaidi told AFP news agency.
鳥類在巨大的鳥類市場上國內銷售，或在國外走私。當地警方發言人Dodik Junaidi告訴法新社，周四上午在港口小鎮法克法克發現的鸚鵡的目的地尚不清楚。
"The ship's crew told us that they suspected there were animals inside the box as they heard strange noises," he said on Friday. No arrests have been made so far.
他周五說：「船員告訴我們，他們懷疑盒子裡有動物，因為他們聽到奇怪的聲音。」到目前為止，尚未逮捕任何人。
The seized birds were identified as black-capped lories, a type of parrot native to New Guinea and nearby islands in the southwest Pacific Ocean.
被查獲的鳥類被鑑定為黑冠鸚鵡，是紐幾內亞和西南太平洋附近島嶼的原生鸚鵡。
It is a protected species in Indonesia that is sought-after illegally to supply the pet trade, said Elizabeth John from the wildlife trade watchdog Traffic.
野生動植物貿易監管機構Traffic的伊莉莎白·約翰說，這是印度尼西亞的一種受保護物種，被非法追捧以提供寵物貿易。
"Indonesia perhaps leads the charge in bird smuggling interceptions in the region, but what is needed is more arrests and a true crackdown of the players from source to market," she told the BBC.
她告訴英國廣播公司：「印度尼西亞可能在該地區的走私鳥類攔截中起主導作用，但真正需要的是更多的逮捕行動，以及從源頭到市場的真正鎮壓。」
It's not the first time that birds have been discovered hidden inside plastic bottles. In 2015 Indonesian police arrested a man who was trying to smuggle 21 yellow-crested cockatoos, an endangered bird, in bottles.
這不是第一次在塑料瓶中發現鳥類。2015年，印尼警方逮捕了一名男子，該男子試圖在瓶中走私21隻黃冠鸚鵡，一種瀕臨滅絕的鳥類。
In 2017 Indonesian authorities found 125 exotic birds forced inside drain pipes after wildlife raids that led to several arrests.
2017年，印尼當局發現野生動植物襲擊導致數人被捕後，有125隻外來鳥類被迫進入排水管。
