Darts

A group of Indians were hunting and while they were taking the animal apart, another tribe was walking by. They gave this tribe fish in exchange for permission to pass by. Their land was ravaged, but they didn’t say by who. It shows how the villages are like in the Indian’s type of perspective. One of them gets bullied and made fun of, because he can’t have kids. One of the elders starts giving a lesson, or speech, in the middle of the night. Everybody on the village is gathered around listening…

the family is once again thrust into the crucible of life. Darl, in a borderline-insane endeavor to let Addie finally be at rest, lights a barn ablaze with the coffin and Addie’s body in it. Against all odds, Jewel, once again, saves the day. He darts within the burning building…

Animal rights groups have estimated that over 100 elephants are killed everyday by poachers. Poachers are bringing the elephant population close to extinction, the population has decreased by 50% in the last 35 years. Poachers are illegally killing elephants in Africa and Asia to use their ivory for objects such as piano keys and billiard balls. In 1989, an international ban was put on the ivory trade. The ban made it legal to trade in one’s own country, but illegal to export the ivory to other…

Panic. The grin fades to wide-eyed fear. My heart beats so fast and I can feel it sinking into my chest. My eyes dart from side to side. My family has sunk into the huge masses of people walking every direction possible. I spot them, I think. I walk confidently. No. Not them. Then I see them, for sure this time. I take a few steps in a different direction. No. That…

already proposed himself, he wants to find it in himself to hunt, kill something with his bare hands, and survive in the wilderness. While he is accompanied by his two friends, he is determined to test hypotheses on an anatomy professor named Raymond Dart, and a zoologist C.K. Brain. For this purpose, both men are “analyzing a collect of fossilized bones found in a South African limestone quarry…[called,] Australopithecus Africanus” (Marshall 83). In addition, both men had polar opposite…

greatest role in determining Santiago’s fate, is presented as completely remorseless. This is conveyed powerfully through Marquez’s use of imagery when Angela gives Santiago’s name to her brothers: “she nailed it [Santiago] to the wall with her well-aimed dart, like a butterfly with no will.” This description consequently presents Angela as unfeeling and brutal as Marquez juxtaposes her violent action, “nailed,” with the peacefulness and vulnerability associated with a“butterfly.” This is…

The Nine Years War and its aftermath are without question one of the great turning points of Irish history. In addition to witnessing the zenith of Gaelic military power and sophistication, perversely, it also led to the final destruction of native military and political power. Despite the apparent modernisation of the native Irish forces it is not hard to find articles and attitudes which view the war as a contest of the backward and militarily weak Irish, against the modern armies of Elizabeth…

The Great Barrier Reef; it’s a land filled with the wonders of marine life and the beauty of biodiversity. A land where a dense forest of coral stretches on for miles, and schools of vibrant fish dart in and out of coral-ridged windows. A land where sunlight dances through crystal water, landing delicately upon strong branches of the reef and small crustaceans scuttle about the streets of the busy underwater city. It is a land free from the effects of human existence. At least, that’s what we’d…

For years, scientists have relied on animals to test cosmetic, hygienic, and medical products before administering them to humans. Although scientific breakthroughs and discoveries have been made by using animals to test these products, most animals experience unnecessary abuse and cruelty. Even if some products are effective when used by animals, this does not guarantee that they will be effective in humans. There are currently no established laws that protect small animals that are currently…
