Descriptive Essay About Animals

The project that I would like to present is called a “animal interview”. The animal interview is a project where I pick a biome and “interview” a couple of animals on how they adapt to that ecosystem. For example if I were to pick the desert, I would reaserch a few animals such as a jack rabit. I would ask certain things such as how do they keep themselves warm or cool (depending on biome), what do they eat, how do they keep hydrated, what are there special adaptions and what things do they use in the envoirment.

Majestic, noble, and brave, this famous iconic wild animal on the planet has captivated the people since the beginning of time. They are most feared by other animals thus, known as the king of the jungle – no other than the lions. Member of the genus Panthera, the lion is one of the big cats in the Felidae family. A lion’s head and body size average about 4.5 to 6.5 feet and tail of about 26 to 40 inches in length. A lion also weighs about 265 up to 420 pounds and a size relative to a 6-foot human. These mammals are also carnivores. Lions have always seen hunting in groups called pride. While lions generally avoid a full-grown elephant, lions still prefer their preys large like the zebras, buffaloes, and giraffes. Poised as the top animal in the ecological pyramid, lions have strong physical qualities, fascinating reputation, and an unfortunate decreasing number of population.

We all benefit from the progress of modern science. However, many people do not realize just how society makes great progress in medicine, technology, and many other areas. Most people just accept modern medicine for granted and do not give a second thought about how scientists figured out how to replicate organs, perform a blood transfusion, and even provide insulin for diabetics. Many might wonder how exactly is great progress in medicine made? In our society today, there are too many rules and restrictions and too many corporations looking to make a quick buck on trying every new medicinal idea on human subjects. Since the human body is incredibly complex and we do not completely understand how everything functions together yet, it is considered inhumane to test new products and treatments on people since we do not have a perfect idea of what may happen. Instead of abandoning these projects, we

What are the length scientist will go to discover a new drug or the way a new theory functions? Many scientists have no respect for life, as long as their brings them closer to discovery. Many do follow regulations and look at some animals as a sacrifice for the good of education. But where do we draw the line. Many species are actually very smart and are aware of what is being done to them, but others are born to either be experimented on or eaten by predators. I will briefly discuss the negative and positive on sacrificing animals lives for educational purposes.

A majority of high schools in America have classes which pertain to the study of animals. A countless number of schools have recently added multiple classes such as these. Hurricane High School especially is in need of adding an animal science class. Many students would benefit from this class in several different ways. Not only this, but the school will benefit greatly as well. It is highly recommended that Hurricane High School should offer an animal science class for the 2014-15 school year. This class would benefit the school as a whole by preparing students planning to enter the occupational field dealing with animals, make the school look more impressive, and give students a chance to try new things and possibly find hidden interests

On Wednesday, June 18, 2003, I had finalized the decision to put my incapacitated dog to rest. It became a reality. I clearly remember the warm, breezy day that occurred two weeks ago. As I sat in the freshly cutgrass of my front yard, I paid no attention to the sounds of the birds that were singing or the leaves that were dancing on the trees. All that was on my mind was the details of the last 13 years and remembering the times we shared together. As I kept trying to convince myself that he would not have to suffer another day from his ailments, I kept thinking of the first day that he came into my life. I was 15 years old when I got Valen. It was Valentine's Day in 1990. Earlier that week my mother was near Port Jervis, New York on a business trip. She had some free time before she had to come home to Pennsylvania so she decided to stop at the local SPCA. Her intentions were to simply look at the animals and then leave. She made her way to the area that housed the dogs. There she found a shy, but friendly, golden retriever. He was a bit apprehensive at first, almost as if he was neglected and abused, but it didn't take much of my mom's gentle touch and her soft, subtle voice before this dog realized she was his savior. She decided that she would like to adopt this dog however, the policy was strict, and there was a seven-day waiting period before you could adopt an animal.

One hot morning my aunt and I decide to go on a bike ride to the dollar store up the street. With sweat dripping down our face and the bright sun beating on our back, we pedal what seems like hours but is really just a few minutes. We took the scenic route to the dollar store, the grass was emerald green and the flowers were vibrant, the birds were chirping and the bugs were buzzing. We make it the dollar store and we purchased our grab bags, which have random items in it, but it's a mystery as to what is in the bag, we sit on the hot concrete and open the bag. I reach my hand in and touch something soft, pulled out a tiny dog stuffed animal. The next thing I grab is something prickly and I pulled out a hair brush. The next item is a music

One of the main ideas discussed in this essay is that humans are a narrative species. This essay presents several of examples of the urge to write out our thoughts and tell our stories. These examples included had shown the human need to express their stories during their last moments of life. The author had mentioned in the essay that humans live through storytelling. I agree with this concept because we express our stories nearly every day in our lives such as telling a friend an experience you had. We often tell stories to share our experiences, thoughts and emotions. We feel an urge to tell our stories because it’s what shapes us and provides us with a form of self-expression. In general, humans express their stories in their everyday life, therefore, demonstrating that humans exist through storytelling.

I open my eyes and listen to the sounds around me. I can hear an animal. It was not any animal though because the animal happened to be a pig. What was odd though was the pig was blockish as if we were in a game.

Passion is defined as a “strong and barely controllable emotion” and for me, philanthropy is one of my biggest passions. I enjoy being able to always offer a helping hand to those in need, both humans and animals. Growing up, I always had people that loved and cared about me around me, people that would be willing to stick their neck out for me, and It has shaped me into the person that I am today. I look up to philanthropists such as Warren Buffett and Oprah Winfrey, but I also look up to my teachers, and mentors who in a way are philanthropists as well. They may not be considered actual philanthropists in the monetary sense, but they are people who were willing to give time and effort and invest it in me.

Rapid clacking noises of the rim of the taiko drums began the opening ceremony. All I saw were bamboo sticks and mechanisms connecting my eyes and ears while my hands held the mouth. I jumped up and got in my crouching position. The bass of the taiko drums vibrated in my heels and chest; I felt alive. Adults and children, watching my partner and me, were amazed and a little scared. As I shook and swung the 20-pound lion head around, I realized my effect as a leader on the crowd. As I feasted on the cabbages, Chinese red envelopes, and oranges, I realized I was much more than just some bamboo sticks and mechanisms. On the outside, I was a lion. A golden fur bearded, red and green-eyed, rainbow-colored pom-pom covered, various art patterned lion!

Gogo lived a sad, mean, and cancer life. Not that my family didn’t treat her right or that was the problem. The past life before she entered our family was why she is the way she is.

A RANDOM CHRISMAS STORY I MADE THAT IDK WHAT THE TITTLE SHOULD BE SO THIS IS WHAT I HAVE \(._.)/

For a city girl, nature has a negative connotation. Nature sound like venomous bugs and plants that invoke laceration all wrapped up in a runny nose and red eyes due to allergies. City girls are not fond of the outdoors- I should know because I am one. I would choose a Quad Grande non-fat extra hot caramel macchiato upside down with a cake pop over camping any day. Although I may not enjoy it, I’ve lived in Alabama for six years now and that’s just not how Alabamians live their lives. This is a Southern state equipped with trees, hunting, and country roads. We have an outdoors supermarket in Birmingham- oh yeah, it is that serious. Now, of course, we do have our Starbucks and strip malls but Alabama is a nature state, she says hesitantly.
