question: finding multiple strings within string
#5
Also if have real html and not a mess like this with some href trow in,then should use a parser.
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

html = '''\
<div class='animals'>
  <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog">dog</a>
  <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat">cat</a>
</div>'''

soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print([tag.text for tag in soup.find_all('a')])
Output:
['dog', 'cat']
