Restaurants are buying wild animals on a large scale, only to kill and cook them for profits; customers are eating them without any unease to satisfy their mouths or show how fortunate they are; mandarins can not wait to treat their seniors with the classiest banquet of rare wild animals to lay the stairs up to higher positions—where is the position of 'others' in such a 'chain of man' which is devastating the ecology of the nature.

餐馆大肆收购、杀戮、烹煮野生动物为牟取暴利；食客面不改色食用野生动物以饱&口福&或炫耀财富；官吏不惜以野生珍稀动物作为最高规格的宴席；&贿赂&上级领导为自己铺设升官晋级的阶梯——在这个破坏自然生态的&人链&中，可有&他人&的位置么？

Walk among the magnificent residences, the splendid equipages, the gilded shops, restaurants, resorts of all kinds; scent the flowers, the silks, the wines; drink of the laughter springing from the soul of luxurious content, of the glances which gleam like light from defiant spears; feel the quality of the smiles which cut like glistening swords and of strides born of place, and you shall know of what is the atmosphere of the high and mighty.
