But not all winners of the race aka life still win. People can be first place but not win the race. Sure, you passed the checkered flag but what matters is did you rightfully win the race. Most of the time, yes but there are a few times when people have cheated there way to being

    The article, “Of Primates and Personhood: Will According Rights and Dignity” by Ed Yong, discussed and attempted to promgulate the humane treatments of primates, especially those used for experimentation. Yong also elaborated on the Great Ape Project, an association established to gain a basic set of rights for chimpanzees, gorillas, bonobos, and orangutans. Furthermore, he asserted that there are studies and data proving that animals are capable of experiencing pain and other emotions, and therefore, it is only logic to give them the treatment they deserve. In addition, some animals, particularly primates, are genetically linked with humans; in that sense, it is undeniable that they should be allowed to share the basic rights that humans…

    The beauty of the world and the universe is something that is hard to grasp for most people because of the magnitude of how riveting the beauty is. “In the Forest of Gombe” an essay written by Jane Goodall, describes how she was experiencing many different types of beauty from within the forest. The essay describes how we as humans look through many different lenses while we are searching for the meaning of the world. It truly is “our human responsibility” to better understand the awe aspiring world we live in; since, there is so much beauty and that there are so many unknowns that if we leave them unknown we will never grow as a civilization. As humans, we can see the world from many different “windows” and those lenses we see the world from…

The trial addressed evolution which, under The Butler Act, was illegal to teach. A Tennessee teacher taught a high school class evolution from a chapter in a previously state-approved textbook, after being approached by an organization. The Scopes trial was definitely more than just a debate between evolution and creationism, and though it would be hard, you could believe in both.…

    The Evolution in Primate Locomotion and Body Configuration One of the most important parts of the primate evolution is when the primates changed in body structure and locomotion. Although some may say that the origin of the human bipedalism is a persistent mystery (Gebo 1996); however, the evolution of bipedalism began in order to survive through climate changes, be able to hunt their food and get away from danger in order to survive.

    Los Angeles Zoo Primates Our day at the zoo simply started with the objective of completing our visit, by seeing at least one each of the primates of each category around the zoo. That was quickly discarded considering that amount of information that the zoo provided for us about each individual creature. Because of the way that the zoo was structured we were unable to simply follow a particular order in which the animals were categorized. We visited all the different primates (as much as we could possibly see in our time there) and simply observed them each and photograph their actions behaviors and appearance along with potential eats and actives that may undergo on a daily base. Organizing the visits based on categories made it easier to structure and understand why it is that each type of primate belongs to that group.…
