Standing in the center of the trees, he pointed his sword forward and spun steadily, prepared to make a quick slash if something jumped at him. Mr. Enders told him that the forest became strange—small animals became rarely seen and injured lumberjacks came out of the forest—but he…

We can measure evolution in species today by using the methods of archeology and biological, or physical, anthropology. In terms of archeology, we can study artifacts and recorded material left behind by past cultures. We can study patterns of behavior from the species in present day to the species that existed in its origin. An example would be the continuously growing change in elephants. Most elephants in the past were born with tusks. It was about 2-5% of all elephants that weren’t. However…

There is no mistaking the distinctive sound of a chainsaw, screaming as it bites through a hunk of wood or the bark of a tree. There are even chainsaws which are used to cut through concrete, brick and natural stone. Chainsaws are perhaps one of the most convenient power tools available, and can save a lot of time and effort in construction and felling. Although the origin of the chainsaw is debatable, it is determined that the first chainsaw was made around 1830 by Bernard Heine, a German…

Surviving the Extremes is about a man named Kenneth Kamler who goes on several expeditions around the world to discover how the human body adapts to different environments.

I really did enjoy this book because not only did Kenneth include personal experiences, he also included dangerous trips other people have taken. I would have to say the Jungle is my favorite part of this book. I learned so much about how the…

Managers focus on white-tailed deer as an economic commodity, as hunting leases can be an important source of income (Bartoskewitz et al. 2003).

Elephant poaching causes a major crisis to their ecosystem because they are the keystone species. “As a keystone species, they help balance all the other species in their ecosystem, opening up forest land to create firebreaks and grasslands, digging to create water access for other animals...” (National Geographic). Poaching is a major issue of why elephants are endangered, so looking at why they’ve done it can correct them from continuing this practice. You often see poaching currently used for…

Because of the geography where the Inuits live, it affects the types of shelters they live in and how they are made. Since the Inuits lived in a place very cold, they…
