Deer Elk

At the beginning of Black Elk Speaks, Black Elk and John Neihardt smoke the peace pipe then Black Elk begins his story. When Black Elk was still pretty young he and his tribe were involved in the Hundred slain war, and Black Elk also begins to hear strange voices. Later on Black Elk falls very ill, then two warriors come from the sky and bring Black Elk to the Flaming rainbow tepee, while he was there his six grandfathers gave him six very special gifts. After Black Elk got the gifts he was taught the horse dance, when Black Elk returned from his vision he went to see his cousin Crazy horse, later on Crazy Horse would be murdered by being stabbed in the back by a soldier. By this time most of the indians were forced to live on the reservations but one band of Lakotas escaped from the reservation and traveled north to Canada where Sitting Bull’s band was. The winters in Canada were too harsh for the Sioux so they reluctantly moved back to the reservation where they were given hardly anything. With Black Elk’s people losing hope he teaches them the dances he learned in his visions. When Black Elk learns of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show he decides to go with him, after a few months doing shows in America Black Elk went to England. When the Lakotas were camped on Wounded Knee Creek, the wasichus came and murdered everyone in the camp including the women and children. After the battle the remaining Lakota surrendered they went to the reservation and the flowering tree dies. The

Mason Neck Park and Mason Neck Wildlife Refuge, officially known as Mason Neck State Park and Elizabeth Hartwell Mason Neck respectively, are home to a multitude of species, such as the bald eagle, the Virginia pine tree, and the white-tailed deer (“Elizabeth Hartwell Mason Neck,” 2016; “Mason Neck State Park,” 2016). Critical to the conservation of endangered species, Mason Neck Wildlife Refuge, run by the National Wildlife Refuge System, a part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, provides a safe habitat for the various organisms (“Elizabeth Hartwell Mason Neck,” 2016). On the other hand, the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, the governmental agency responsible for Mason Neck Park, keeps human’s recreational needs in mind and provides activities such as canoeing and fishing (“Mason Neck State Park,” 2016). The human interference present within the Mason Neck Park may impact the local ecosystem (“Mason Neck State Park,” 2016). Although there are activities available in Mason Neck Wildlife Refuge, they are “wildlife-oriented recreational developments” meaning the well being of organisms living in the Refuge will be the first priority (“Elizabeth Hartwell Mason

With the hopes that it wouldn't snow, I traveled to Silverton Colorado with my dad in October. My dad and I had six elk tags for the very first rifle season. We pulled our camp trailer down to a nice wooded area about five miles before you get into town. The camp sight was about a quarter mile off of the highway. There were trees all around the camping spot; the only break in the trees was where the road came through.

In the northeast area, the deer population is especially high. Because they are now so heavily populated, they are starting to cause more and more problems. Crop damage, which is when a farmer loses a substantial amount of crops, is growing with the deer population. This is a huge problem for the farmers because they are losing a lot of money by feeding the deer. With the rising population,

The state legislature has favored the ranching industry above ecology and continues to do so. Public polls “conducted by Boise State indicate that the overwhelming majority of Idahoans (nearly 70 percent) support wolf restoration” (Laverty, par. 4) and the legislature is seeking to remedy this by re-educating the public with “a balanced view of the impact of wolves on big game species, those sectors of the economy dependent upon sport hunting, livestock, domestic animals, and humans” (State, 3). Furthermore, the “cost of wolf reintroduction will be presented as a part of any public education program including direct and indirect costs” (State, 3).

The author did this to show the conflicting sides of having a scientific animal in your home and also to show the conflicting sides of animal testing.

One of the only animals you can find North Carolina is the red wolf. According to Christopher Ketcham, only 47 red wolves are left in North Carolina wild (Ketcham, 2016). Protecting this species is going to take a lot of effort because it’s already at the edge of extinction. Some people might not want to due to the fact of money must be involved. The safety of the animal and its habitat is going to take tremendous money to keep up with the cost of providing what is needed. Although the cost is outstanding and unimaginable, the end result will be worth more than what was put into saving the species. Losing one species may change the food chain which can cause a disruption in the resources farmers and companies need to make the needs we, humans, want. These reasons won’t convince people to fund the protection of biodiversity loss, but organization has been made to protect and enforce laws to help protect species. One of these organization is called, The United Nations Environment Programm (UNEP). This organization tells the responsibilities of humans, management of forests and other preventions of biodiversity loss (Briefing PapersWorldConferences, n.d.). Another simple and most common reason to save the species and every other species is, simply put, “the fact we have a place that’s globally significant for biodiversity right here in North

Since June 2009, captive cervid producers have been given the option to “enroll in a Voluntary CWD Monitored Herd program via an application to the Wildlife Division Administrator. As a condition for monitored herd status, all captive North American deer and elk (6 months of age or older) dying of any cause, must be sampled for CWD by a federally accredited veterinarian, or an Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife veterinarian or at a veterinary diagnostic laboratory by a veterinary pathologist. Submissions [are] sent to National Veterinary Service Laboratories (NVSL) by the accredited veterinarian or pathologist” (MI Department of Natural Resources 2014). “Also, mortality reporting

“National Wildlife Federation gives voice to the wildlife conservation values that are part of our country’s heritage. We are charting a new course for wildlife that our children and grandchildren will thank us for.”

The size of our deer population has increased, this means that there are more deer who live in the woodlands. This may have some extra consequents. Deer might damage trees, devour seedlings and eliminate some plants. That is why people say deer destroy our woodlands, that they destroy our nature. But they forget one important thing. A deer is as much nature as the woodland. If we want to look out for our nature, we have to look out for our deer’s too!

I think this video contributed highly to what we learnt about hormones back in the “Sex and the Brain” lecture, especially about estrogen. I did not know that there were several different forms of estrogen receptors, and that these receptors could mutate or their functions could be altered. I also found it fascinating that women with schizophrenia have worse symptoms in times when their estrogen levels are low. I have realized that these hormones are much more involved in the brain functioning than I initially assumed. Dr. Weickart also hypothesized that these estrogen receptors could be find at the areas of the brain related to reasoning and language, which relates to the schizophrenia lecture. The idea behind this hypothesis was that her

The interior hold numerous types of vegetation. Especially grasses, such as blue stems, June grass, porcupine grass. As well as trees including, pine, spruce and fir trees. From these, animals such as, Elk, Antelopes, varying types of Deers and Wolves are present, These creatures feed on many of these vegetation, with the exception of wolves.

Most were wildlife biologists and technicians employed by DNR. The reason so many people were introduced to the study of Chronic Wasting Disease was because of the increase is amount of regions impacted by Chronic Wasting Disease. Once is it well established in an area, Chronic Wasting Disease is impossible to eradicate (Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, 2013). Instead, most states focus on limiting the spread of the disease and preventing its introduction into new areas. Missouri is smartly proposing restricting deer breeding facilities and captive hunting preserves as a first step toward containing the disease (Missouri Department of Natural Resources, 2014). According to the Missouri Game & Fish Department the harder questions involve managing Chronic Wasting Disease in wild, free-ranging

After we discuss, we think energy conservation and the use of renewable cost-effective and more sustainable alternatives, that 's why we want to contain resources to make energy use more efficient. We all know that natural ecosystems and human health by reducing the adverse effects of air quality and climate change. Our community can ensure the protection of air quality by limiting or eliminating harmful chemicals and then discharged into the air by minimizing air pollution sources. We want to make sure that contains resources and approaches that air quality and climate change. My copartner reminds me that biodiversity is particular important for creating sustainable community since each species plays in maintaining ecological balance. Our communities can promote healthy wildlife by supporting a comprehensive approach to managing the protection and strengthening of regional wildlife populations. While providing soil, water and energy. Forests are also a wide range of renewable energy products and services. Finally, it is clearly more environmentally sustainable methods and more inclusive than the current policy in the presence of the community. We do believe it is vital to education development community.

Every year Florida’s wildlife animal numbers decrease at an alarming rate. Endangered animals exist all over the world, but Florida’s official state animal is one of the most endangered animals in the entire world. The main reason some animals become declared as endangered is humans. Humans have caused a huge toll on the wildlife’s lifespan and have become a burden in their natural way of living. It is how the human population behaves that decides whether these animals can live a normal life or pushes them into endangerment or even extinction if the case is severe. Many of Florida’s wildlife animals are endangered due to the consequences of pollution, the behavior of poaching, and the loss of habitat.
