The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service protects animals, plants, land, and waters by managing more than 500 National Wildlife Refuges or 150 million-acres. The organization’s mission is to “work with others to conserve, protect and enhance fish, wildlife and plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people”(Fish and Wildlife Service). While the organization is centered around helping conserve the American land, in my research for my proposal to better protect the lsla…

The Amur Leopard or “Panthera pardus orientalis” (www.worldwildlife.org, 2014) is a critically endangered species with around only 30 known still alive. I chose this animal because Leopards have always managed to keep me engaged and keep my attention. I may not have been very knowledgeable on this animal before this project but by the time I’m done I expect to be an expert. In this paper I will cover the habitat of this animal and the types of food it gets, a description of my animal (what it…

Ligers are very rare and so are tigons. The difference between the two are ligons are made by a male lion and a female tiger and a tigon is made by a female lion and a male tiger. “Ligers, like tigons – cubs born to a lioness and a male tiger”. (Panina) The reasons ligers are so rare is because they have to be bred in captivity. Ligers are so rare that there are only around 20 in the world. I do not think this is a good idea to cross breed animals because most places where they are bred by…

marmots and hares. They have long-paled gray fur that covers its body, and its patterned with black rosettes. They weighs about 145 lb, and they normally inhabit on cold snowy mountains or rocky outcrops. A long time ago there’s about 7,500 of these tiger-like mammals roaming in the world, but now there’s only about 6,000 of them left. Climate change, lack of food and poaching are the main reasons why their population have gone down. Climate change is perhaps the greatest long-term threat to the…

The snow leopard lives within the tundra biome. The snow leopard…

Why do people want to get rid of wolf hunting? This is a question many people sometimes forget about. Many people shoot guns for the sport. Others hunt for the meat from the animal that they claim. Some even hunt for the prize animal, like a wolf. Because wolf hunting is limited and population is up, more people should take advantage in of hunting wolves for many reasons such as population control, food, trophies, once in a life time opportunity and experience. The first reason people should…

Poachers kill them mainly for their horns and tails. People would pay about $50,000 for two horns from one single black rhino. That’s a lot of money involved so poachers can’t resist it. In some cultures, superstition also plays a roll for black rhino’s body parts; the people used to hang one of their tails in a room where a woman is giving birth and it’s suppose to help ease with labor pains. Since some people believe in that they would go out and buy a rhino’s tail. Black rhinos are like…

The tiger is one of the most endangered species around the world. Today, there are only an estimated 5.000- 7.000 tigers existing worldwide (D'Silva, Roy) . This number has decreased drastically over the last few years, even though the tiger has few natural enemies. Besides large buffaloes, bears and elephants, humans are its worst enemy. Tigers mainly live in Asia, India and Russia. Due to the wide spread, every tiger sub- spices have adapted to its ecosystem differently, some live in tropical…
