The tiger will never lie down with the lamb. The lamb must learn to run with the tigers. In life, you can either be a monster, or a man; and the monster always wins.

In the Tiger’s Bride, Beauty is a lamb, but she must learn to run with the tiger. In the tiger’s bride, beauty starts as an innocent girl who is consumed with pleasing her father and doing whatever…

Question 1 a) According to Lindsey et al. (2013), the restriction of lion trophy imports to the US and EU can result in a number of potential negative consequences for conservation, particularly the loss of major revenue sources (a single lion hunt can generate between $60,000 to $120,000). Considering that 85% of hunted lions are exported to these two markets, the resultant reduction in the demand for lion hunting would lead to lower prices, which in turn could make it prohibitive for…

with tigers. My first stuffed animal was a white tiger named Bone Tiger. Once I had Bone Tiger, I took him everywhere with me. As I got older, I would ask my parents for more stuffed animal tigers.

I grew up in Medway, MA., which is about 30 minutes from Southwick’s Zoo. Southwick’s Zoo is one of the few zoos in Massachusetts that has tigers…

The Burmese Python, which is an invasive species that rules the Everglades National Park, is extremely dangerous. According to Tarshis, “full grown pythons are the kings and queens of the Everglades” because they eat so much (8). These invaders cause so much pain and destruction.
