The Black Death was a very painful disease, as if you contracted the plague you would have symptoms such as black buboes (Buboes are painful masses that appear in the groin and armpits) which would have continued for approximately a week. There was always a tiny chance of living if the buboes did burst. What caused the “Black Death?” Stuart doctors said that dogs and cats, pigs, pet rabbits and pigeons could spread the plague. The government believed them and tried to prevent the plague by…

that the raven is a demon, not present to bring the happiness he yearns. With the ravens responses “Nevermore” the speaker who is trying to seek happiness, becomes violent. “’Leave my loneliness unbroken! -- quit the bust above my door! / Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!" / Quoth the raven, ‘Nevermore.’" (Lines 100-102). The character now wants the raven to leave and stop influencing his feelings. The raven however neglects his wishes and remains on the bust.…

Blue, turquoise, and the distinctive lapping of the waves on the cool damp sand. I had a slightly metallic taste in my mouth, it seems I had I had bitten my tongue while eating a ham and cheese croissant. it was the morning and there was merely only joggers in sight and children, including myself scurrying to school. I make the trecherous journey to top of the hill high school with the mob of kids. I reach the front door with one strong push i open the thousand year old door and fight my way…

demand for food as a result of growing incomes” (Hurst). However the two authors disagree on animals lives in industries. Pollan describes industrial animal farms as “Our own worst nightmare” (369) and his most compelling evidence is tail-docking and beak-clipping, he considers animals born into production units to be unlucky. On the other hand, Hurst believes that human cannot change nature, and by changing the way these animals are raised their lives will be undermined. To emphasize this issue…

sensitive skin and could potentially lead to hypothermia (International Bird Rescue, 2015). Another adverse affect of oil on the birds is that their natural instinct when there is an unwanted substance on their feathers is to try and remove it with their beaks. By removing the oil this way it causes the oil to get into the birds organs and produce extreme organ damage (International Bird Rescue, 2015). Once a bird has become oiled there is very little that can be done to save it. By the time…

Or the bird would try to get the oil off their feathers by preening, cleaning its feathers with its beak, which will cause them to ingest oil and causing severe damage to internal organs (International Bird…

When we think of birds we usually tend to imagine them above our heads flying high in the sky. We tend to forget that some of them live in extremely cold environments and can actually swim deep underwater for sufficient amount of time. These strange birds are referred to as penguins. These birds tend to baffle us because of their similarities and different traits compared to their flying relatives. Exactly why and how did they began to develop differently from other birds? So what is the…

Our first few days on the road were uneventful. All our stopovers had been meticulously planned. Support runners accompanied, and then met us as planned, all arranged by Stapleya via the 'Bedrock Telegraph'. No word of the stranded couriers responsible for delivering our weaponry. By now we considered them likely dead, eaten by the predators. Surviving one night was unlikely. Multiple nights, quite impossible. On the fifth day we were approaching our destination, the castle nearest the site of…

with toys and it is important that you rotate their toys to avoid repetitiveness and boredom. The type of toy is important also and you should definitely provide some toys with wood or bark on them so that they can chew and gnaw on them to keep their beak in good condition. Jardine’s have the ability to mimic and in fact their ability is close to that of their larger cousin the African Grey. They are also accomplished whistlers but generally they are not considered loud birds but parrot…
