Donate blood, but not to mosquitoes

INSTEAD OF KILLING MOSQUITOES, people should let them take "blood donations" because they need to fertilize eggs - That's what French animal-rights activist Aymeric Caron advises people to do. China Daily writer Zhang Zhouxiang comments:
It is admirable that the animal-rights activist has so much love and sympathy for mosquitoes as a species. We hope he extends a little to his own species, too, which is a victim of mosquitoes.
According to statistics of US website Science Alert, mosquitoes cause the deaths of more than 750,000 humans every year. In comparison, sharks are responsible for six human fatalities a year, while wolves kill 10.
