    Qî(3)ngwù fàngshēng

    請勿. 放生

    (Please do not) (release captive animals)

    There is a Chinese Buddhist practice (放生) of buying captive animals like fish or birds to release them. They’re trying to say not to do that here, but I imagine that the concept of fàngshēng is a little complicated to convey.
