I went to the Art Museum of South Texas to take a look at the artwork they had on display there. I found that they had an exhibit called Liquid Light and it included black and white photographs of the sea and its inhabitants.

It is about the challenges Paikea faces being a girl and how this affects her relationship with her grandfather. This essay discusses three symbols that Niki Caro has used in her film.

I intend to write a creative piece of writing about Animal abuse for human entertainment. Written in first-person‚ the reader will see through the perspective of a Killer Whale‚ who is torn from it’s ocean home and held captive in an unnatural environment.

In the beginning‚ before man was created‚ animals of the highest status ruled over the many regions of Earth. For the water region it was Killer Whales‚ for the sky region it was Eagles‚ and for the land region it was the Wolves. Before man‚ wolves didn’t stay in separate packs; they were one.

One day while out on a hunt‚ Luna and

I have recently watched a movie called blackfish. Actually it was a documentary about orca whales written and directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite.

I’ve always found it kind of fascinating that they are called the “Killer Whales” because they are used at water parks such as SeaWorld. Disney World wouldn’t use anything dangerous in their parks
