愛犬慘死,兇手逍遙法外。縱然不是每個人都如電影《捍衛任務》的 Johon Wick,身懷絕技,謀求私刑正義;[1]透過科學管道,至少可以討個答案,獲得心靈平靜。義大利某隻母的傑克羅素㹴(Jack Russell Terrier),橫屍寵物旅館的院子,得年 8 歲。犬舍的網子破裂,有向內拉扯的痕跡。寵物旅館老闆養的3隻荷花瓦特犬(Hovawart),嫌疑重大;然而事後到場的獸醫,卻認為野生狐狸或海狸才是罪魁禍首。傑克羅素㹴的主人心有不甘,遂找上波隆那的一所動物疾病預防研究機構(L’Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale della Lombardia e dell’Emilia-Romagna)。[2]

身後貢獻
鑑識團隊完成狗主人託付的任務後,撰文介紹將 mtDNA 的細胞色素 b 基因(cytochrome b gene),放大並定序,最後確認物種的細節。[2]雖然不曉得他們的努力,是否有助司法公道,但是好歹已為學術研究貢獻心力。天下蒼生多少默默無聞,死後被立碑著傳的又有幾個?一隻備受寵愛的傑克羅素㹴,能榮登學術期刊,也算不枉此生。
