Jim Robbins wrote “America's Gray Ghosts: The Disappearing Caribou” for The New York Times in order to raise the issue of struggling caribou populations in North America and encourage a government response. Robbin advocates for the protection of caribou by referencing experts on the topic in order to establish his authority and statistics that support his argument on a logical level.…
One way to control herd sizes in national parks is the reintroduction of predators, but this course is opposed by…

Grizzly Man was a disturbing, yet intriguingly interesting, movie about a man and his undying love and affection with nature. Timothy Treadwell spent thirteen summers living amongst wild grizzly bears in Alaska with the intention of providing protection against potential dangers that could cause harm. Treadwell thought of himself has as a kind warrior to these bears and recorded over hundreds of hours of footage showing these bears in their natural habitat. He was a guest speaker at schools and a hero amongst children. He became a self-created, national celebrity.…
One of the threats is to the wolves food supply. Another threat is the building of roads and pipelines may clear parts of their natural habitat, displacing and destroying its prey.…
“Go back to California!”, is just one of the many things supporters of the Mexican Gray Wolf reintroduction program were hearing at a meeting about “predators” in Alpine this February. Over three hundred people were in attendance and only a handful of people were supporters of these dog sized predators. They sat quietly listening to everyone bash the most endangered mammal in North America (Corrigan). The Mexican Gray Wolf is about the size of a German Shepherd, four to five feet long and seventy to ninety pounds. Up until recently they only existed in zoos but with the Mexican Wolf Reintroduction project and the help of United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Arizona Game and Fish, White Mountain Apache Tribe, United States Department of Agriculture(USDA), animal and plant health inspection service, wildlife…
The Yosemite national park has a problem with over grazing of kaibab in the park and will cause over population and starvation and what the Grand Canyon national preserve game started to release wolfs into the park but near by farmers are out raged, because these wolves are killing their live stock. The farmers want the government to allow them to protect themselves from the wolves but the wolves are endangered species this will kill of this species for ever. With this reasons these could help this problem.…
Another reason they should not be reintroduced is they are not the natural grey wolves of the surrounding ecosystem. The wolves that were reintroduced were Canadian wolves. They are much larger and stronger then the American ones. Since they are bigger in the size it means they eat more and have an advantage over the prey. A perfect example is a case study that happened in 1960. Four Canadian wolves were introduced to Coronation Island for the purpose of reducing the over population of black-tail deer. Those wolves however were not managed and soon reproduced to thirteen and quickly depleted the deer population.…
On March 26, 2016 I went to the 102nd University of Oklahoma Spring Powwow hosted in Lloyd Noble Center. The American Indian Student Association has been hosting this event every spring. It is known as the longest running powwows in the nation and the world. Besides that, it is a unique opportunity to express the beauty of the native culture. Personally, it was an interesting experience to me to discover the creativity of this culture through their dances, songs and artwork.…
The western frontier is full of many experiences that changed the frontier. Each significant event has an important role on the shaping of society and way it influenced a new nation. Each author brought a new perspective and thought process to the western experience which either contradicted Turner or supported his theories. The frontier ideas that interested me include topics such as trading frontier, farming frontier, nationality and government, and the neglecting of women.…
Should the Gray wolf be taken off the endangered species list and should they be allowed to be hunted like the common coyote? Scientific evidence does not suggest that wolves should be hunted in Michigan. Moreover, every reason that has been offered for why we should allow wolf hunting is misguided. They are hunted in areas where they have become highly populated for example in areas such as Montana and Idaho because their numbers have increased over 5000 they are killing off the deer and elk population. By controlling the wolf inhabitants it would insure that the wolf does not starve because they ate all their prey.…
Hunting is a common activity all around the world, and if performed properly, can have many benefits to us and the rest of the planet. The art of hunting has been around since the beginning of time. Living off of the land used to be a necessity across the world, until the mass production of food came along. In America, people do not usually need to hunt to survive. However, the population of animal species needs to be controlled. Too many of one type of animal can cause a drastic change to any ecosystem. Food supplies decline quickly, leaving many animals without food. Hunting can help keep the population of a group of animals at a good number, making the lives of the other species easier. Hunters and fishermen are some of the most prominent demographic groups, and have an annual economic contribution of $70 billion (Eaton). Taxes from this also benefit the habitat by funding wildlife control (Gibbons). Hunting contains many positive effects on the world and the things living in it. Some people have negative views on this activity, but the amount of positive affects it has on society overbears the negative ones.…
The wolf is truly a special animal. As the most widely distributed of all land mammals, the wolf, formally the gray wolf (Canis lupus), is also one of the most adaptable. It inhabits all the vegetation types of the Northern Hemisphere and preys on all the large mammals living there. It also feeds on all the other animals in its environment, scavenges, and can even eat fruits and berries. Wolves frequent forests and prairies, tundra, barren ground, mountains, deserts, and swamps. Some wolves even visit large cities, and, of course, the wolf's domesticated version, the dog, thrives in urban environments.…
The new episode dramatically changes the view of the big bad wolf from a villain to a hero because he’s actually trying to save the world by killing the three little pigs. With each successful kill the wolf gets closer to completing his mission; however, he fails to kill the last pig. Therefore, instead of the big bad wolf getting his punishment for his evil actions the story now concludes with the hero wolf losing his life on his attempt to save the world. The new episode also changes the way how the pigs are viewed from as victims in the original story to a necessary sacrifice for the benefit of mankind. Additionally, the new episode changes the story’s original theme of taking your time to do something right pays off which is shown by how…
