Declination Of The Arctic Deers Summary

Many people would find it easy to sympathize with the conservation of the natural, magnificent wilderness and all of its glory; and Subhankar Banerjee, the author of Arctic National Wildlife Refuge: Seasons of Life and Land, A Photographic Journey, uses that sympathy to gain the reader’s support in his claims. While his article does offer a very compassionate viewpoint with vivid imagery to capture the reader’s attention, it lacks strong logos arguments to back up his claims and falls victim to a few major logical fallacy points that injure his stance.

When people talk about deer, they are commonly talking about the North American Whitetail. That is because they are so prevalent in this country. They can be found in every state in the US. The only place where you will not find any whitetails is in parts of Arizona and California. In most states the whitetail is very prevalent, especially in the northeast. They are one of the most hunted animals in this area, particularly in Pennsylvania and Michigan. Despite the amount they are hunted, both in and out of season, you can not drive more than a few miles out of the towns without seeing one that was hit by a car. The deer population in this area just keeps growing. It is unclear what

Every year the fall brings in one of the biggest sports, hunting. According to David Crook in his article How big is the Hunting Economy, there are about 13.7 million people or approximately six percent of the United States population that consider themselves to be hunters. When all of these people get up the morning of opening day there is one thing that affects the way that they hunt. Every avid hunter knows that they have to base their hunting style off of the weather. The different factors of the weather such as the temperature, wind speed, barometric pressure, and precipitation changes the way the deer move and can either make or break a deer hunter’s season.

In recent years, the deer population has been rather high, but since the peak of the deer population in the 1990s the population of deer has decreased by roughly 30 percent (Cleveland). There are many causes and effects of the decrease in the deer population. Some of the reasons that there is a decrease in the deer population is because of hunters, and also the amount of predators. The effects of this decrease in the deer populations has lead to a change in the South Carolina law. The new law now changes the number of deer that can be killed by the hunter each season. There is also an increase in hunting predators of the deer, in hopes that this will help increase the population of deer once again.

The Polar Bear (Ursus maritimus) is a bear native largely within the Arctic Circle encircling the Arctic Ocean, its surrounding seas and land masses. Although it is closely related to the Brown Bear, it has evolved to occupy a narrower ecological forte, with many body characteristics adapted for cold temperatures, for moving across snow, ice, and open water, and for hunting the seals which make up most of its diet. Though there are many theories surrounding evolution, the two stand outstanding hypotheses applying to the modification from Brown Bear to Polar Bear are Lamarck’s theory of Use and Disuse, and Darwin’s theory of Natural Selection. The intention of this paper is to compare these thesis and determine the most appropriate in

“The Deer at Providencia”, by Annie Dillard is a literary report which digs into the content of suffering. Four North Americans exploring the bank of Napo River on their way to the village observe a deer caught in a rope (which was a trap) suffering and struggling to save its life. Following the central theme of the story, Annie Dillard goes on talking about the suffering that is faced by a man when he was burnt and how after going through so much, seeing the deer doesn’t affect her so much. By this she extends the theme to the fact of universal suffering and how it is needed in every life for a person to understand the importance of the moments he can cherish.

In the scientific article, “Love in the Time of Climate Change: Grizzlies and Polar Bears Now Mating,” by Adam Popescu, believes that climate change is helping to cause grizzlies and polar bears to mate. He points out that glacier sheets are retreating, this forces the polar bears to move into grizzly’s territory. Moreover, that the permafrost is also starting to melt, which is causing grizzlies to wander into the polar bears territory. Consequently, he goes on to put that because of this mating, the grizzlies are eating up the polar bears genetically. He concludes that if this trend keeps up, in a few decades any kind of the bear population in this area will be no more. Lastly, the author’s purpose is to make readers aware of the hidden effects

The belief of climate change only impacting Alaska changes to the belief that climate change has the power to impact the living habits of wildlife such as the Alaskan

The amount of hours spent hunting and the actual time of day have a major effect on seeing trophy deer. The old saying that “you can’t see a deer when you’re not hunting” is exactly true. Successful hunters who continually harvest large whitetails all spend countless hours scouting, planning, and hunting throughout the season. The best hours for hunting are typically the hours closest to sunrise and sunset. Deer often travel during this period to and from food and bedding areas. During rut many successful hunters spend all day in the field.

Global warming has disrupting the natural Arctic wildlife patterns by all the ice is melting right

The Arctic, a significant region full of commercial industries, has been faced with many problems concerning its environment, indigenous rights of the natives, and territorial claims between the Arctic coastal states. In the environmental aspect of this region, climate change has caused ice to melt at a faster rate that might potentially lead to more exploration for oil, gas, and minerals. At the price of this development, pollution and toxic substances will become more apparent and will cause harm to the wildlife and the people of the area. With the combined efforts of climate change and the growth of industrialization, the indigenous people of the Arctic are experience poverty and a declination of hunting, an important cultural characteristic.

Kolbert provides compelling evidence of Global Warming in the Arctic from her hands-on experience accompanying scientists in the field. From the storm surges that threaten the Alaskan village of Sarichef to the warming (and even melting!) permafrost, the evidence all point to the irrefutable fact that the planet is warming up extraordinarily fast. In fact, the Keeling Curve gives us a rather explicit visualization of how greenhouse gases levels (CO2, in particular) are rising at unprecedented rates.

a. The author is supporting the argument that if humans don’t do something soon it would be too late to prevent global warming to keep developing and getting worse. She’s showing the impact that global warming is having on one of the Antarctic ice shelves overtime and what is its aspect today.

The image above presents the overall global temperature of the world from 132 years ago, the year 1884-2016 to the current period. It is stated that the dark blue coloured sections illustrate cooler temperature than average and the darker red section depicts the hotter temperature than the average. Therefore, the global temperature has increased throughout the years of 1884 to 2016 (Tenenbaum et al, 2015). This supports the claim that the climate has been altering in which the global temperature has risen to above 5 Fahrenheit in 2016 whereas, in 1884 the temperature was below -4 Fahrenheit. The regions such the Antarctic and Canada has experienced as significant change in temperature. For instance, in Canada the temperature is presented as -4 Fahrenheit during the 1884 suggesting this region was extremely cold than other areas of the world as expected (Nasa Climate Change, 2015). However, the 2016 image of global temperature illustrates that the world climate has become warmer specifically in Canada and the Antarctic as the red section implies that the temperature has increased above 4 Fahrenheit. Thus, both image conveys that the global temperature has evidently increased this supports that there is a changing climate. Therefore, this evidence can be used to suggest that humans and animals are adapting to the altering conditions as the evidence above exemplifies there is an increase in global temperature.

What is God’s true purpose in our lives? Throughout Annie Dillard’s collection of short stories entitled Teaching A Stone To Talk, she endeavors to answer this and many other questions. This query in particular is most prominent in her two short stories The Deer At Providencia and God In The Doorway. God In The Doorway presents the two different personalities God can be perceived as having while predominantly displaying one personality. The Deer At Providencia displays the other personality God is rumored to have through a clever and effective motif. Overall, God takes center stage throughout the writings of Dillard especially in the aforementioned short stories.
