, Cirque du Soleilis the best clrcus oct ever.
, they don't use onimols in their shows,and I like thot
becouse it is cruei to use onimols in showsfor people.
No cloning dinosqurs!
Somepeoplewont to clone dinosoun. I don't think it is o good ideos.
Cloning is not o good thing to do. Mcrnypeoplesoy cloning qre donger.And,
if we clone dinososond it works, moybe sciencetistswill wont to stqrt cloning
people,too. I think dinosqurscon't live in the worlds of todqys.I think
dinosorswould hurt people.It would hurt or kill much other onimql, too. In
sum all, I don't think it is q oood ideq to clone dinosouls.
