Oh, the Tibetan Mastiff article makes me sad. They have worked so hard to bring that breed back and to lose so many of them is just sad. But $30,000 to breed them? That's pretty amazing.
Of course, all the people dying is sad too...
"But Yushu is believed to be home to as many as 20,000 of the valuable animals, many going hungry after the earthquake. Although, dog fanciers would argue that fewer than 100 are purebreds."
So we really only have to worry about feeding those 100.
