　　Why do dogs bury bones under the ground?

　　（一）狗為什麼將骨頭埋在地底下?

　　Instinct makes daogs bury bones. Dogs uesd to be wild animals. They had to find their own food. After eating they would bury the bones because they didn't want other animals to take them. Dogs kept their bones like people keep leftovers so they could eat them later. Today people feed dogs. So dogs bury bones out of instinct.

　　狗喜歡將骨頭埋在地底下，這是出於一種本能。狗以前是野生動物，它們得自己覓食。吃完東西后，它們會把骨頭埋在地底下，因為它們不想讓別的動物把骨頭搶走。就像人類會儲存吃剩的食物一樣，狗也會將骨頭埋在地底下，留著以後再吃。現在，狗基本上已經成為家養動物。因此，狗將骨頭埋在地底下只是出於一種本能。
