27、d animals found. “No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening,” H.D.

44、ut much of human learning occurs outside the classroom, even from birth and people continue to learn throughout their lives.
