SAVE THE SEA TURTLES Nearly all species of marine turtles are endangered and the ones not endangered are considered threatened, according to WWF®. All sea turtles found in U.S. waters are federally listed as endangered or threatened. Today, thousands of young turtles hatch and begin their journey from the southeast, United States’ coast to the Atlantic Ocean. Today, only one-thousand in every ten-thousand sea turtles survive into adulthood. They are slaughtered for their eggs, meat, skin, and…

Blue Whales, the largest animals in the world so far, are facing with the situation of being extinct, as they have been harvested for a long time, making the population decrease to 50,000. In the early 20 century, people took up whaling for the energy sources, and the meat and fat of whales can be used in different ways. Since the price of whale meat is really high, many people regard the profit as the chief motivation, caring less about the ecological system. There were about 66000 whales…

Building new subdivisions and putting up houses for people is great, but it is destroying the homes of others. The Wood Turtle is becoming endangered because of habitats change. Also I’m going to tell you more about their habitats and facts about their diet and their behavior. The wood turtle range extends from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick south to Rockingham County, Virginia (Buhrmann and Mitchell 1989), and west to southern Quebec, and more. The Wood Turtle always found in close association…

was the largest marine predator in the history of the planet, vastly outweighing both the modern Great White Shark and ancient reptiles like Liopleurodon and Kronosaurus. Megalodon had a diet befitting an apex predator, feasting on the prehistoric whales that swam the earth's oceans during the Pliocene and Miocene epochs, but also chowing down on dolphins, squids, fish, and even giant turtles (whose shells, as tough as they were, couldn't hold up against 10 tons of biting force) Some of the…

can be away from the rest of the orcas. The argument it makes is that orcas should be free and not in pools. The trainers at SeaWorld believe that SeaWorld should close and let all the killer whales live their rest of their life in the ocean where they belong. They don't want to let go of Tilikum the whale because of breeding reasons. Moreover, the orcas should be free because they become aggressive towards the trainers and has killed many while trying to entertain the audience, they're not to…

The character's main motivation in the story was to somehow survive the shipwreck and make it to Jones Island. On one of the lifeboats, Mr Henry decides to give up his life and give Shy the special Ring that he was going to propose to his girlfriend. This was a selfless act because he thought that Shy and Addie had a better chance of surfing due to the better conditions that their bodies were in. The consequence in his decision is that he gave up his own life for the need of others and not…

Be that as it may, Antarctica's waters are getting hotter, Aronson told Live Science. At some point inside of the following couple of decades, the landmass' frigid ocean will have sufficiently warmed (by around 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit, or 1 degree Celsius) to permit these titan crabs to move up onto the rack and begin eating up the echinoderms (a gathering that incorporates ocean stars and ocean urchins) and mollusks, (for example, shellfishes and mussels) that live there. "That is the thing…

What do you think of when you hear the word shark? Maybe scary, dangerous, creepy or even deadly. Some people's biggest fear is getting attacked by a shark, but they don’t know how to stay safe! Is this you? Do you want to know how to become shark aware? If the answer to that question is yes, keep reading! Sharks do not hunt for you and I. If they do, it is because they have mistaken your identity, they may of thought you were a turtle, a sea lion or any other animals of their natural prey.…

they are howling like a screaming banshee. You are extremely lucky if you find one of these ghost white Odontoceti whale in the Arctic. In order to understand beluga whales you first must look at their habitat, diet, how they eat, and the threats that are endangering beluga whales. Beluga whales adapt very well with their environment. They live in the cold Arctic waters. Many beluga whales spend most of their life time in offshore waters. The only time they go in close to the shore is to mate…

bad thing? Orcas should not be held captive in SeaWorld, and should be set free in sea pens or the ocean. The actions at SeaWorld are inhumane, they keep the Orcas from living their full life, and restrict them from their natural habitat. First, Whales should not be held at Seaworld is because keeping Orcas, or any animal, inside cages is inhumane. From an animal rights standpoint, we do not have the right to capture and confine other Orcas. The federal Animal Welfare act established the…
