You know how they have those plastic things between escalators and walls so people don't get their heads cut off or arms broken? This is why. Look at the images to see this dumb rear end kid.

It's illegal to ship live animals here? Is that why they're packaged so poorly and keep showing up dead? To hide that there's a live animal inside?

Live animals everywhere

And even if when it’s legal to ship them, animals are quite fragile to ship

Chinese Employees Eat Off Urinal to Show How Clean Company’s Toilets Are
In a bid to show how clean they keep their toilets, a Chinese company made a peculiar demonstration involvin employees eating food off a urinal.

Workers at Tenfu Group, a firm in Zhangpu county, Fujian province which specializes in tea products, were shown in a video eating mochi, or glutinous rice balls, placed in a urinal by a manager, MailOnline reports.

The widely shared footage also shows the company’s deputy general manager adding some sweet toppings and tossing the desserts around with her hands.

“Look, I’ve tossed it around for about 20 times, now, let me be the first one to eat it,” the manager said before eating one rice ball.

Other employees are then seen picking up the dessert and eating them confidently. The staff also set up a dining table inside the toilet and shared a meal together.
....
I often wash the toilets until they don’t smell anymore,” she was quoted as saying. “If you accidentally dropped your food in the urinal, you can still pick it up and eat it.
The urinals are clean because all the pee is on the floor

Buddhists Free Thousands of Fish Into Lake for Ceremony, Locals Immediately Catch Them With Nets
A group of humanitarians released thousands of fish into a lake in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China in an act called fangsheng (放生) which means “releasing life.”

The religious practice, which involves saving animals from markets and then releasing them back into the wild, is often done by Buddhists to gain merits from the heavens.

However, the noble deed was quickly hijacked by another group of people who were already waiting on the other side of the lake.

Upon learning that around 10,000 fish were being released that day, locals armed with nets went over Dingxiang Lake and helped themselves for an easy catch.

Video footage circulating Chinese social media captured the argument between the two parties. But the pleas of the Buddhists fell on deaf ears as the locals proceeded to capture the recently released fish.

Fangsheng events in the past have also been raided by locals who took the opportunity.

According to Shanghaiist, local officials have explained that releasing too many fish at once into the water can also cause problems such as an incident in 2013 when 250 kilos of dead fish washed ashore in Shanghai.
All the Chinese Buddhists I have known that do this say this is normal.

They're probably explosive when they show up dead too.

I'm not ordering live animals, for the record. Friend tried to buy a squirrel and they kept shipping boxes of squirrels to him. Told him to always just take a video of opening it because if he could prove it was dead on arrival they'd ship out another for free. It took so many tries before he got a live one, and the unboxings were nasty. They ship it with a little thing of food and that's basically it.

When he finally got a live one it suicided out his window :(

The pet store around the corner from me has a squirrel in what’s basically a large birdcage and I feel bad for that thing because every time I see it it’s either lying totally still or frantically climbing the walls and ceiling in circles. No idea why you’d want one as a pet.

I don't have all the answers here but I can ask him about it. I didn't wanna bring up squirrels around him after the live one fell so we havent talked about it much since and after I saw the unboxing videos it kinda turned me off of the topic.

I just assumed they were normal pets in China. I haven't seen any wild ones to catch. Though I've only really been around Zhengzhou, Luoyang and Kaifeng, maybe there aren't many wild squirrels here?

It’s cool that a squirrel diving for the pavement convinced him not to buy more squirrels but, also, I feel like this is important, the second order I can understand because maybe you can think “okay, the first one died, these things happen” but how do you, in good conscience, keep calling up the squirrel murder company like “hey send me another one” when you already know you’re almost definitely going to get a dead squirrel in a box???
