This is an incredibly long time so if you plan on getting a sloth, make sure you have a lot of time available for the next thirty years or so. If you are the kind of person that works long hours and doesn't have a lot of time you should consider getting a pet that is more independent. Sloths however, like to be by themselves but if you have already bonded with the sloth if could be hard on the animal. Sloths use their claws for defense as well as their coloring. They will sit up in the trees and eat leaves and different items. They do not eat meat. They love to snacks on different berries and fruits that they find in the wild. You will need to supply your sloth with plenty of juicy leaves. Sloths do not need a water dish because they get all the water they need from chewing on juicy leaves and getting water that way. I'm sure that sloths would love to eat lettuce because it's mainly water and it also is fun to eat being as it's so crunchy when you chew it. Sloths are very interesting animals. If you find a sloth or want to take care of an orphaned sloth make sure that you know what you are getting yourself into before something happens and the pet becomes lonely and

In the book, Life of Pi, Pi Patel connects a three-toed sloth behaviors to how humans should live their life. Pi notes that three-toed sloth rest on average twenty hours a day. He could be trying to say the humans should get a healthy amount of rest to live their life to the fullest. Pi Patel also states that the three-toed sloth species is suppose to be cautious of their surroundings but even still fall to their death. He also claims that the sloths are suppose to be able to sniff and avoid decayed branches yet they “often” fall to the ground clinging to decayed branches. Pi Patel could be suggesting that humans should be more cautious of their surroundings that unpleasant events can still happen to them. Pi declares that the three-toed sloth

The plan to protect pygmy sloth habitat on the Isla Escudo de Verguas is to create a team to begin gathering research to develop a Comprehensive Conservation Plan. The research gathered can be from previous research conducted by a variety of scientists. In addition, new data should be collected on the current population of Pygmy sloths in addition to the amount of mangroves on the island. This plan will make sure that the endangered animals on the island are protected and ensure that the refuge management is taking the steps to help recuperate the mangroves that have been cut. The first step would be to gather a team to head the proposal. Some of the team members should be from the refuge management, as well as people who are well informed on the animals that inhabit the island and environmental information. Once the team is built, they will need to gather local fishermen and regular visitors to the island to assess the situation and receive feedback on what they believe to be the largest problems facing the island. With the help from the local fishermen, who are the ones that are cutting down the pygmy sloth habitat, the refuge management team will be able to assess the needs of the fishermen as well as the need of the animals to create a plan of action to better ensure the safety of the island. From this research, the team can create an initial draft of a plan for the next ten or fifteen years. The Comprehensive Conservation Plans should focus on getting data on

The author, Basil Johnston, is trying to portray the connection between a mythical story from the Aboriginals and the way we are destroying the environment today, from his article Modern Cannibals of the Wilds, written in 1991. Johnston begins his article by telling a story about a habitat filled with many different species such as: fish, birds, insects and other wildlife. Then, Johnston continues to introduce a cannibalistic mythical creature called weendigoes, who feed on human flesh to try to satisfy his never-ending hunger. After Johnston introduces the mythical weendigoes, he transitions into introducing the modern weendigoes who care reincarnated as humans, depicted as industries, corporations and multinationals who dwells on wealth

In the past century there has been a substantial change in the way human beings raise and keep animals meant for food. While in the past there were great numbers of widely spaced small individual farms, now there are relatively few, but extremely large industrialized farms. And as the numbers of animals kept and slaughtered for human consumption increases, these industrialized farms, known as Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations or CAFO's, are having more and more of an impact on the environment and people around them. The concentration of animals causes a major problem with the waste products they produce, as well as the gases, chemicals, and other types of byproducts. And the increased use of antibiotics in the animals is beginning to have a profound effect on the health of not only the environment but the communities that exist around these industrialized farms. CAFO's, and their secondary industries, are also a large consumer of oil, gasoline, and other fuels which can have an indirect, but devastating effect on the environment. Luckily there are some who have come to recognize the problems, and potential future problems, involved in this type of animal farming and have begun to inform the public to the dangers these farms pose. And in response to this information, the public is beginning to force changes in the way these CAFO's operate and the impact they have on the environment and

The Haberman Feeder was invented by Mrs. Mandy Haberman for her child who was born with Perrie Robin syndrome (Devi et al., 2012). The Haberman Feeder is a modified feeding device that delivers milk to the baby due to the compression of the teat, and requires no active suction (Devi et al., 2012; Trenouth et al., 1996). If the infant has trouble producing the correct amount of negative pressure, the elongated nipple can be compressed (Mizuno et al., 2002). The flow of lines on the nipple has been proven to be helpful in that it assists the infant in achieving adequate flow (Arvedson & Brodsky, 1992).

Imagine a child, at first startled, but soon curious. He catches a critter that once frightened him. He pokes and prods this creature with interest, and not long after realizes the investigation might be better if the frog were tied down. He takes it home, finds some old string in the garage, and ties the frog down to some sticks. Once he is no longer content with just poking, his unsatisfied curiosity takes over again leaving him wondering what the insides look like. Since he is not allowed near the knives, he improvises with an old tin can. Quickly, his curiosity snowballs and soon his mother is scolding him while he stands motionless with a magnifier in his hand, the sun at his back, and a burning pile green slush at his feet. At

In addition to this, the slothful person is similar to the procrastinator in that every procrastinator is slothful, but not all sloths are procrastinators. Procrastination is a particular kind of sloth. They both lack motivation to do a task and do not want to do it and try to avoid the work because of the effort in doing it, but the difference here is that the procrastinator intends to do the task and completes it after some time, which is still a slothful action, but the slothful person does not intend to do the task at all, which is not something a procrastinator would do. For example, the procrastinator, Beatrice, would go off and play video games, while she needs to do homework, but then does it at 4 am in the morning, while the sloth,

Jonathan Swift uses a series of metaphors to illustrate the process of gaining knowledge on a deeper level, rather than just simply acquiring facts. Several of the metaphors that he writes express the benefits of more thorough investigation, like when Swift likens wisdom to drinking a mixed hot drink called a sack-posset. He states, “wherein the deeper you go, you will find it the sweeter,” this suggests the reward of looking past the “surface” for a more in depth understanding of a concept or an idea (Swift 298). This metaphor promotes the value of inquiry and curiosity to find wisdom or “sweetness.” Great value is to be found in the picking apart and the investigating the things in your everyday life. In

The main thing horses eat is hay but they also eat carrots and apples but that is more like horses treat. Horses eat a lot of fruits unlike humans. They can eat a lot of fruit and not get tired of it. they eat veggies to but not as much as fruits. The natural diet of horses is grass. Grass contains enough nutrients a horse requires to be healthy grass also has silica which is important for dental

In Iowa I've learned what animals need for every season, different environments causes livestock to adjust their bodies to the changes in weather. In all weather conditions animals need to have a place where they can escape the weather and stay warm, dry, or cool. In summer it is very smart to have fans blowing on the livestock with fresh water so they don't get dehydrated and so they will stay cool. Feeding animals 2-3 times a day in the winter creates body heat so they stay

Most communities in the United States do not have an exact data on the numbers of pet owned in each household, but the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), estimate that 144 to176 million pets are owned in the United States.1 There are various requirements and needs to consider when bringing a pet home, for instance, if the house is pet-friendly, the time it takes to train your pet, spaying and neutering, cleaning, taking them to the vet, and importantly and one the most neglected is their nutrition. Nutrition plays a key role in the prevention of many chronic diseases, improving the quality of life, and increasing life expectative of our pets. Therefore, it is important for owners to understand the role and needs of nutrition for their pets. The most common nutrition disorder in companion pets encounters by veterinarians is obesity.2-3

During the lab on Tuesday this week, we learned how to feed Cordylophora. We also observed the feeding habits of the Cordylophora carefully. While observing the feeding, I focused on one particular hydranth with 18 tentacles that captured and ingested 8 Artemia. Meanwhile, a hydranth of similar size with 15 tentacles caught no brine shrimp, even though many passed by it within reach. This lead to the question of why some hydranths feed while others do not. I would like to determine if there is a specific reason as to why some hydranths fed and others did not. Does the relative size of the hydranths cause different feeding habits? Do hydranths rotate which ones feed in a logical manner or is it entirely random?
