Most 1/2 hr TV shows are weekly and only go for 8-10 episodes. Noraly is producing 3 per week. Without writers, film crew, editors, or advertising budget. And now up to 51 episodes this season alone! WELL DONE AND GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I was there in November 2017. the road was being built then as well. Our guide warned us it would be very smelly, as a lot of pups have to fend for themselves when they reach a certain age, but they often are not capable yet and starve. It was early November and lots of baby pups around, still alive, although I also saw a few dead ones, and two mums fighting over a pup. I guess one had lost one and was trying to steal one.
