Answer: Centaurs

Explanation:

Kinnaras, another half-man, half-horse mythical creature from Indian mythology, appeared in various ancient texts, arts, and sculptures from all around India. It is shown as a horse with the torso of a man where the horse's head would be, and is similar to a Greek centaur.

It comes from the ancient Greek word kentauros, which is sometimes considered to literally mean ‘bull-killer.’ According to the Greek mythology, there was a whole race of them, usually described as ferocious and with somewhat beastly and uncivilized appetites. Chiron was unique case: he was Cronus’ son, wise and just, and had taught a lot of Greek heroes like Achilles and Jason.

Some people on earth, don't get enough water everyday and they have to walk 5km at least to get a bucket of filthy water. So people who have clean water everyday sometimes waste it and pour it into a drain. However, they do not think about the people who actually need it and they take it for granted.
