David Wallace’s article of “Consider the Lobster” is a very unique article and went above and beyond to grab the reader’s attention on a sensitive subject; the senses and feels of an animal that later becomes our food. The idea of putting yourself in the bodies of an animal that us humans later consume, is both a disturbing and difficult task.

I believe that bringing your dog to work is not a good idea. Many questions come to mind when thinking about the topic. First I think about the dog harming a co-worker and that could lead to other issues.

Numerous menageries and marine exhibits all over the world have left animals to rot in their cramped cages when they die; left animals unfed, untreated for wounds; or left in areas so minuscule they cause psychological trauma. Seaworld has some of the worst cases of animal cruelty on documentation. One of the most notorious cases of animal cruelty in Seaworld is their care of orcas.

Management is especially complicated as wildlife often roam large distances and frequently move in and out of parks and protected areas making regulations in, between, and across legal and political boundaries especially…

If Fido considers your lawn to be his favorite bathroom facility, then you may have noticed some areas that no longer resemble the green oasis once located there. Aside from needing to dodge puppy’s poop when the lawn must be crossed, the grass is obviously dying before your very eyes. Why does dog waste kill lawns? A visiting dog doing his business in your backyard won’t hurt your yard. A resident pet using the same area on a daily basis, however, is another story. Dog waste contains nitrogen.…

These wilds can replace regular symbols, except for the bonus symbol of the game represented by a Map. What adds to the wilderness effect is the use of animal and bird sounds that are played in the background. Also, players will notice the wealth of the Amazon, and a system of writing, probably from an ancient language. All these provide that sense of mystery and intrigue to the game. To ensure player convenience…

But I’m sure most of you don’t realize that these animals are basically given the same amount of rights as prisoners.
