Should Vampire Bats Be Saved

Decent Essays
To Kill or Not to Kill? Vampire bats are in a life or death controversy. Should they be killed or should they be saved? First Columbian ranchers believe that vampire bats should be killed for killing their herd. For example, Chris Kraul, journalist for the Los Angeles Times explains that the farmers became desperate and had to start killing the vampire bats because they were killing their cattle (Kraul). Which proves the reason why vampire bats should be killed. Secondly The state should study why the bats just got up and decided to eat cattle. Therefore this confirms that vampire bats should be saved. Thirdly I believe that the bats should be saved. To explain Kraul explains in his article that scientists theorize that the increased attacks

    Megan Hoffman The truth and importance of Gray Wolves Even under protective laws, Gray Wolves are still being killed! Although people tend to look down on wolves in general, it does not mean it's for good reason or acceptable. There is more to any creature then meets the eye, and for Wolves it is especially so. Gray Wolves are of a greater benefit then what we give them credit for and are often mistreated or otherwise viewed as something unwanted, unneeded, and ill-received. The Gray Wolf species has long been damned and slaughtered for minuscule infractions and illusions of identity despite how they are unlike their fabled counterparts, are viewed as "Spiritual brothers" by some Native Americans (Swinburne 10), and are beneficial to their…

    El Chupacabra is a popular Latin American legend, a coyote-like bipedal creature that mutilates and drains the blood from other creatures including humans. This blood thirsty legend gets its name from the spanish terms chupar “to suck” and cabra meaning “goat”. This creature began being sighted in Puerto Rico in the 1990s after a series of reports came in about animals being mutilated and drained of blood. At first, it was speculated that there was no such thing as el Chupacabra due to the lack of evidence. No one really knows where this mysterious creature came from but what is clear is that even due to the lack of evidence El Chupacabra still continues to haunt the darkest corners of the…

    I believe that Nagel 's primary conclusion in “What is it like to be a bat?” is that while there are multiple different forms of consciousness, humans cannot be sure of the presence of consciousness in lesser forms of animals, such as a bat. The “what it is like” for Nagel is reworded as being subjective character. The bat has subjective character, which is experience. Even though we know that bats hang upside down, have webbed arms and feet, and use echolocation, we will never truly know what it is like to be a bat. While we can all have thoughts on what it is like to be a bat, Nagel states that because everything has its own interpretation of itself, there is no way we can add specific information into our minds to actually see what it is…

    It would be promising to see the error caused by man corrected. With the wolves helping to keep the ecosystem in order, aiding in keeping both the land and herd animals healthy, could only be a benefit to Colorado as a whole. The additional money coming into Colorado as ecotourism increases could provide additional support for parks and recreation within the state. Having read a Park Ranger’s actual account of conversing with a particular visitor, relaying her appreciation and excitement, not to mention the impact seeing the wolves made on her Girl Scout Troop, it is hard to think of reintroduction of wolves in Colorado as anything but a positive choice (McIntyre). It would be wonderful to camp in the mountains of Colorado with the anticipation of possibly hearing wolves…
