The only view an animal in captivity will ever experience, is life behind metal bars and barren concrete with people gawking at them. The number of animals suffering from extreme stress and depression is increasing daily. Zoos teach people it is acceptable to interfere with animals in their natural habitat and continue to place them into…

In the middle of the African Savanna, a frightened zebra clings to an unimpressed giraffe, which stares at river located towards the west. In the expansive landscape, mountains spring up from the earth with a majestic presence that shows their dominance and power in the light grey of the limestone. The jagged curves of the mountains demonstrate the timeless beauty of nature and the earth’s geological past, which slowly transformed the savanna. The sky witnessed these changed over the centuries…

When I looked at the images on the PowerPoint I decided it would be wise to look closely and mentally take notes of who was in each picture and what each character was doing. I found it either easy or hard to find the pictures that closely represented the ones on the PowerPoint when comparing them to the PDF version. Hopefully, my knowledge of Herakles will help and educate me more about the pictures and the relationships each character has. For the first image, I had a hard time deciding what…

Have you ever realized how zoo animals live? Imagine seeing an elephant in the zoo just standing there doing nothing, but then in movies and pictures you see them always walking and playing just always doing something. They don't have that choice in the zoo. Animals should not be kept in zoos or in captivity because they don't have the life they would have in their natural habitat, they are not taken care of well and they are not happy. Animals don't have as much space in the zoo as they would…

never happen again. Plus it would also lead to many fights in the herd to go for the leading role. It should also be banned because the money from trophy hunting has no positive effect on conservation efforts. It is going to put every animal in extinction risk including the dodo bird which did become extinct. African lions are declining at an alarming rate, and the most recent study shows that in countries where trophy hunting is allowed, lion populations…

Extinction is the model used for the inhibition of fear within a laboratory environment. It involves training organisms to fear a conditioned stimulus in a manner described above (Myers, Ressler, & Davis, 2006). While it was previously debated upon it is widely accepted that extinction is a new form of learning and thus the creation of new memories (Burgos-Robles, Vidal-Gonzalez, Santini, & Quirk, 2007). While the two memories of fear and extinction would compete with each other (Royer, & Paré,…

The zookeeper's may be surprised that keeping animals in cages is actually bad for them. Keeping endangered species in a enclosed area and keeping them healthy is letting the animals have a safe place to live right? Wrong! Sure it lets them reproduce, but it is not the best way to keep them from danger. It hurts there natural hunting skills, Reproduction is slowed, and Releasing them back in the wild can be a pain. It hurts there hunting skills, if they are being fed, getting water, getting…
