    Summary Of Water For Elephants By Sara Gruen

    Water for Elephants is a historical novel that was written by Sara Gruen.it was the beginning of the Great Depression. For Americans suffering through the worst serious money-based problem the country had ever gone through - with little money and food to go around - attending a circus performance would have seemed like an amazing, (very much/in an upset, hopeless way) needed an escape.

    Dancing Outlaw: Ethical Issues In Documentary Film

    There are a lot of things that need to be taken into consideration when making a documentary film. One common issue that arises with documentary filmmaking is ethical issues. When people go to see documentaries, they are usually looking to be informed on some kind of topic, but some filmmakers might not use the most ethical approach to achieve that goal. Documentaries can “stand for or represent the views of individuals, groups, and institutions” (Nichols, 45). This can lead to issues later, because if a filmmaker’s documentary shows a person in a different light then the way they see themselves, they are not going to be too happy.…

    Analysis Of 'What Makes A Good Documentary?'

    As Stewart Dunlop, writer of “What Makes a Good Documentary?” Said, “the essential element of a good documentary is simple, the story.” What makes a worthy story and how do we gather it? It all starts with the art of persuasion, done by appealing to logos, ethos, and pathos. The first component is logos where the creator makes a claim or argument that is later proven using evidence like action or still shots that are credible and reveal the truth.…

    Water for Elephants By; Chasity Laporte Water for Elephants was published in 2006, and was banned in Bedford, N.H. School District (2010) after a parent complained about the book's sexual content, violence but still an amazing story in my own opinion. This book is an epic love story between a man named Jacob Jankowski, woman named Marlena, and Marlena's husband August who is a cruel man, and a beautiful elephants named Rosie, but why would such a amazing book be banned? I ask the same question. The sexule content between Marlena, and Jacob is pretty wild. The first kiss between Marlena and Jacob is reminiscent of the scene when the two of them dance in front of Rosie.…

    The treadmill is aimed at African elephants. African elephants (Loxodonta Africana) usually grow to be between 8.2 to 13 feet from toe to shoulder and they usually weigh between 5,000 to 14,000 lbs (National Geographic, 2015). In the wild, African elephants typically travel long distances and can travel up to 19-37 miles per day (Zoocheck Canada, 2015). The amount of distance they travel usually depends on availability of food. Even though at the zoo the elephants will be well fed they still need to engage in regular exercise to maintain a healthy state and to ward off boredom.…

    Wild Animals In Captivity

    The act of holding wild animals in captivity, specifically for the purpose of entertainment has led many people to associate their abnormal behaviors to psychological suffering. Local zoos and aquariums seem to draw most of the attention from the general public about captive wild animal rights and welfare; however, many forget that traveling circuses are just as much at fault. Coming into one’s hometown once or twice a year, the traditional circus puts on a ‘spectacular show’ using wild animals as part of the main attractions. In essence, they serve as the living props for the actors and actresses that run the show. Among these animals, the most iconic of them all, are the Asian and African elephants.…
