The subject line may seem odd (or appropriate) on this blog, since I talk a lot about both bears and China, but this has to do with the real thing – bears (the animal) in China.
I received a compelling email from a reader about the horrible mistreatment of bears in China for quack medical purposes. I have a soft spot for furry creatures, so I made a donation. Please consider doing the same. Thank you! (While you're at it, you may want to throw a few dollars at the dogs, too, as I did – you can help them on the same page).
