The Call Of the Wild

Discussion of the effects of Perceived Predation affecting Songbird Offsprings. An assessment was done to observe the effects of perceived predation risk in a free-living population of song sparrows. The sparrows were found on several of the small Gulf Islands (British Columbia, Canada). The focus was only on perceived predation consequently direct predation was eliminated. The method to eliminate the direct killing by a predator was by electrifying nests and barricading with seine nets.…

This cinematic distortion of facts casts SeaWorld in an incriminating light. One example is the very opening scene of the film, a construction of various clips of killer whales and trainers, with inauspicious music and an audio clip of a 911 call made regarding Dawn Brancheau’s death. This is formulated with the intent to mislead the audience into believing that Dawn Brancheau was killed during or surrounding a water event, or that she engaged in waterwork with Tilikum, which is not the case…

Why didn’t anything happen in you, Wild Awake? I wanted you to be good, but unfortunately, you were not because nothing happened and goddamn, your main character and the prose was cringe-worthy. Yes, that’s right, my dear friends. Nothing really happen. Yeah, Wild Awake seemed true to everyday life since life doesn’t have an overarching plot, and I would’ve enjoyed it if I hadn’t disliked the main character.

It was banned because it was considered "too radical." The book is…

The work and studies that Jane made and accomplished in those jungles, let alone the fact that she was only equipped…

ODUCTION The Paleolithic period originated at the beginning of human life and continued until 10,000 B.C.E. During this time, humans lived in groups of twenty to thirty people and obtained their food by hunting and gathering. This form of food obtainment forced humans to travel frequently, which subsequently prevented permanent settlement. The reason for the transition from hunting and gathering to farming and domestication of animals remains unknown. However, there are several theories that…

For dinner my aunt had prepared corn beef and cabbage. After dinner, I helped her wash dishes. She said, “You’re a lot like your mother. I always said it was too bad she married a musician, who thought he had a gift for logic.” “He had some interesting ideas,” I said. “He used to hide his meanness behind his ideas. I knew she was in trouble when he convinced her to move into the city.” “What do you mean,” I asked? “He told her that by living with me in the woods, she would be inundated with…
