20、indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people dont want to accept the responsibility for the problem.

30、 paying 50,000 yuan. Dogs were then delivered to the headquarter of China Small Animal Protection Association (CSAPA), being taken care of and waiting for adoption.After the “dog saving mission” was reported, Chinese net users debate over whether saving dogs is worth so much efforts and money while
31、there are still many poor and needy people in China lacking assistance.Some net users argue the “dog saving mission” is placing overattention to animals while lots of needy people are still left unattended.A microblogger “Xiaowulaitajie” said on Chinas twitter like website, , “Dogs are saved, adopte

37、climate change. Weve actually rediscovered rats that were thought to be extinct. Darwin was the last one to document them on the Galapagos Islands.

38、 was crazy, why look for something that doesnt exist? They wouldnt even give us permits.
