    Intrude There are many problems we have in this world. One that we don’t think about is poaching. Poaching is basically hunting, killing, taking or capturing wildlife illegally from its habitat. A poacher will kill animals out of season or kill the endangered animals for a profit and doesn’t care about the effect that is left. It happens way too much, it is done all around the world. Even here in the United States, but what separates us from some other countries is we have DNRs’ and the…

    Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary defines recreation as “A means of refreshment or diversion”. It describes conservation as “official supervision of rivers, forests, and other natural resources in order to preserve and protect them through prudent management”. A true outdoorsman knows these words and their definitions by a commonly disregarded and misunderstood colloquialism “Pack it in, Pack it out”. Many people believe that this phrase translates into “If its mine, I pack it out”. What…

    The two strategies outlined above may not be ideal conservation solutions as separate methods, but perhaps make work in conjunction with one another. A short-term strategy such as supplementary food items and the re-introduction of rabbit species may be used while the process of protecting an area is being completed. The short-term approach would allow the survival of the species hopefully for a duration that would provide a reasonable amount of time for the protected areas to come into practice…

    SAN DIEGO >> U.S. researchers are launching studies on Mexico’s red-crowned parrot — a species that has been adapting so well to living in cities in California and Texas after escaping from the pet trade that the population may now rival that in its native country. The research comes amid debate over whether some of the birds flew across the border into Texas and should be listed under the Endangered Species Act. Parrots in U.S. urban areas are just starting to draw attention from…

    gravity, potential energy, kinetic energy, friction, and speed. To our surprise, roller coasters do not typically use engines. If they do, the motor is only used going up the hill and the rest of the ride is motor less. The roller coaster gets energy while it is going up the hills. The roller coaster has the most potential energy when it is located at the first peak which is the highest peak. The fundamental theory of roller coasters has to do with the law of conservation of energy. The initial…

    Conservation of Mechanical Energy Anupama Cemballi Department of Physics, Case Western Reserve University Cleveland, OH 44106-7079 Abstract: Gravitation Potential Energy: Introduction and Theory: Gravitational potential energy is the potential energy an elevated object has due to the force of gravity. Potential energy is the stored energy an object has dependent upon its position. Near the surface of the Earth, the gravitational acceleration of an object is 9.8m/s^2. There is no uncertainty…
