Woodchucks Persuasive Speech

Improved Essays
Woodchucks are harmless, cute and furry little animals. I often see them sitting along side of parks in my home town. They sit along side of the road and chew on different pieces of wood, grass and shrubs. Woodchucks do not harm anything, they simply love enjoying the sun and eating through out the day. This animal lives on roots, veggies and different types of shrubs in the wild. You can place a water bottle in the woodchucks cage, but if it refuses to drink from the water bottle you will have to use a water dish. You should also place a mixture of food in the cage for the woodchuck, along with different things the woodchuck can chew on to grind down it's teeth.

"It could have been intentional, not accidental," said Senator Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, said in an interview after meeting privately in his office with federal health officials. "Economic fraud is a theory" the investigators are pursuing, Durbin said. Senator Durbin has spearheaded a campaign to fully investigate how the tainted wheat gluten and rice protein complex made it into more than 100 different types of pet food in the US. Federal investigators are now examining whether the Chinese manufacturer of the wheat gluten and rice protein complex added nitrogen-rich melamine to wheat gluten in order to raise its nitrogen level. The protein content of the product is determined by testing the nitrogen level, and the more protein the product has the higher the price the Chinese company can charge. The FDA is now beginning to test all imports of wheat gluten from China and the Netherlands, which also received shipments from China.

    Throughout many years of history, those with disabilities were not always treated fairly or given equal opportunity.

Equal opportunities in employment and education have been a big part of their efforts too. For many years, children with disabilities were many times segregated and not given an equal opportunity for a chance to learn and succeed in school. A disability should not limit a person’s choice to improve themselves and their intellectual capabilities.…

People are now more widely educated and have advanced over the past century to include children with disabilities as part of society and not simply a disgrace to be swept under the rug.…
