Some Facts
Firefighters in China are indeed very busy, but their work goes beyond just putting out fires.
One part of their job is rescuing animals and fetching things for residents.
For example, according to data released by authorities in Changzhou, firefighters in the city received 26 calls a day on average during the first ten months of last year.
This means the city saw some 50 firefighting trucks carrying 260 firefighters running through the streets every day.
