Shenandoah National Park Home to many of nature’s wonders, Shenandoah National Park is known for its varied species of animals to their amazing landscape. Located in Virginia, the park’s towering mountains, was partly formed by the Appalachian mountain range, known as the Blue Ridge Mountains. On one side of the mountains, the vast forest and lush valleys border the Blue Ridge mountains. Formed by the clashing of tectonic plates billions of years ago, the mountain range now houses the…

Did you know poachers are the biggest threat to African Elephants? They are being killed illegally for their ivory which is their tusks. Lots of poachers were armed with grenades and AK-47s, they killed more than 300 elephants at Bouba Ndjida National Park, Cameroon, in 2012. Poachers have killed 100,00 elephants in the last 3 years. The elephant population has declined by 64 percent in a decade and at this rate they will be extinct soon. Ivory is a very expensive material and is illegal to…

The common raven (Corvus corax), also known as the northern raven, is a large all-black passerine bird. Found across the Northern Hemisphere, it is the most widely distributed of all corvids. There are at least eight subspecies with little variation in appearance, although recent research has demonstrated significant genetic differences among populations from various regions. It is one of the two largest corvids, alongside the thick-billed raven, and is possibly the heaviest passerine bird; at…

The first time I got to see a exotic animals was at the Zoo. I saw a whole bunch of exotic animals like tigers, lions, elephants, snakes and more. Though I believe exotic animals should be legal. I think they should be legal because if they ban exotic animals why don't they ban cars. More people die from cars than exotic animals per year. Cars can be deadlier than exotic animals. When I read both stories I believed that the “Let people own exotic animals” had great support about having…

On the campus of University of North Carolina Wilmington, there is a nature trail that runs east from Hoggard Hall. Many professors used this trail to help familiarize students with native plants and animals. As UNCW expanded, the size of the trail began to shrink, bringing concern to many professors. Expressing their worry, they made a proposal, "if encroachment on this last area is to be prevented, steps must be taken immediately to dedicate it as an inviolate preserve." With the biology…

There are many endangered species in the Great Barrier Reef. One specific species is critically endangered, which means it is in high risk of becoming extinct, at any moment. That species is the Hawksbill sea turtle. Most people should be concerned, because they’re going extinct because we’re throwing plastic into the ocean. Also, we’re killing them for their skin and their shells. Lastly, their reproduction doesn’t occur rapidly, so every 2 to 3 years, will new Hawksbill be born/hatched. The…

Chile is the longest country in the world and it’s the country that i’m going to be researching today. Chile is located in South America, stretching along the west side of the Content. The history of Chile goes back to the 18th of september when Pedro de Valdivia founded the country.The shield is known as “Coat of arms” it has a condor and a huemul wearing crowns.

Every day tons of animals are poached all over the world, some animals left to rot in the sun. even though others might think poaching is good because it gives us resources, it is the opposite poaching damages ecosystems severely. Poaching has become a huge problem all over the world not just in the U.S. In order to stop poaching we need to be aware about the statistics, what animals are affected by poaching, and why they are being poached. There are becoming less and less of the animals that…

Although there is already a Maryland Wilderness exhibit, the first potential exhibit is B’more Lil’ Critters, which will highlight the endangered insects specifically in Baltimore. Drawing the ideas of realistic habitats, it is easier to provide a truly representative environment for insects, and are generally lower maintenance than mammals. Typically, insects underappreciated role in the…

like hunting the right way, it’s good for our environment, and it controls the populations of many different animals. Others would argue that the negative of trophy hunting is poaching. Evidence shows that money from trophy hunting isn’t helping endangered species mostly because of poachers, which could mean that hunting regulations aren't being held and over 75 percent of these certain animals could be extinct! Since an incident of the killing a lion named Cecil from Zimbabwe was killed many…
