歸真堂在其網(wǎng)站上發(fā)表公開邀請函，邀請社會人士參觀養(yǎng)熊基地以消除公眾對活熊取膽的擔憂。但是，該邀請函發(fā)布不久，歸真堂的網(wǎng)站就遭遇了黑客攻擊。歸真堂活熊取膽的行為也遭到了動物保護機構(gòu)的質(zhì)疑和譴責。

Fujian Guizhentang Pharmaceuticals Co Ltd, which extracts bear bile to make traditional Chinese medicines, had been planning a stock market listing. The plan was strongly opposed by animal protection organizations and many individuals who accused it of using cruelty to extract bile from bears. The company claimed that the animal rights groups had no idea of current extraction methods, which were "easy and not hurtful", and it announced plans to open its farm to visits by media and experts on Wednesday and Friday.
福建歸真堂正在籌劃上市，但其活熊取膽的業(yè)務(wù)受到了動物保護組織和許多個人的強烈反對，人們紛紛對活熊取膽的殘忍表示譴責。然而，歸真堂聲稱，動物保護組織對活熊取膽的方法并不了解，現(xiàn)在取膽的方法“很輕松而且對黑熊不會造成傷害”。因此，歸真堂計劃向媒體和專家發(fā)出邀請，請他們在周三和周五到熊場實地參觀。

In a public invitation posted on its website, the company said it expected to receive 100 people - media on Wednesday and experts on Friday - and let them see the living conditions of its captive bears and the process of extraction. But within an hour after the invitation was posted on Saturday night, the website was hacked.
