belief which they place in one another. Bacigalupi begins highlighting the importance of this trust, as he showcases the consequences of one who proves to be untrustworthy.

She’d proven no one could trust her.” (Bacigalupi 40) Upon staring into the eyes of death, Nailer is shown the dangers of…

The earliest members of Ursidae belong to the extinct subfamily Amphicynodontinae, including Parictis (late Eocene to early middle Miocene, 38–18 Mya) and the slightly younger Allocyon (early Oligocene, 34–30 Mya), both from North America.

Parictis does not appear in Eurasia and Africa until the Miocene.[8] It is unclear whether…

As mentioned above, the two skulls were compared are Proconsul Africanus (an ape skull) and Gracile Australopithecine (a hominid skull).

death of her father, the source of her pride, leads to her death. Due to the lack of a mother figure, Ophelia relied solely on her fathers decisions her entire life. Even as a fully grown adult, she still refuses to think for herself, also violating sloth, by staying in stagnation and not advancing her life by herself. Ophelia pays for this, however, when Gertrude reports that she was “incapable of her own distress …/ Pull'd the poor wretch from her melodious lay/ To muddy death” (4.7.201-208),…

the author portrays the protagonist’s trauma in the open sea as a beautiful religious experience. Pi is delusional and compares animals to a religious manifestation of God. For example, he allegorized the three-toed sloth as an anthropomorphic figure of God : “ the three-toed sloth,…

and adorable and cuddly, and I agree with that. Despite their cuteness, they’re generally a dumb animal with a low level of any intellectual abilities. Compared to other animals they have a smaller and quite frankly a small brain in general. Like a sloth, a koala’s movement is pretty slow and they spend more time asleep than they do awake. Koalas spend nearly 80% of their time asleep and when they are awake they spend their time eating, pooping, and occasionally screaming like they’re the spawn…
