A middle school teacher in Xinjiang was sent to a reeducation camp for two years after he’s found guilty of setting some sheep-and-wolves math questions, one of which is the following: “In a village, a pack of eight wolves have encircled a pen that encloses a hundred and ten sheep. Guesstimate how many sheep could lose their lives before the shepherd and his two assistants arrived on the scene to rescue his flock.”
