Pentex is one of the most biggest multinational corporations in the world. Everything that Pentex touched and produced will be toxic. Wyrm is an entity that is ravaging and ravening supernatural who promised power to whoever follows it to its mission to destroy not only the environment but the whole world. Dr. Junius is a scientist who learned that Pentex and Wyrm are very generous when it comes to rewarding the loyalty of their servant. The ravage of the Amazonian wilderness was part of it’s plans. But despite of these foes the wilderness has its own protectors and so as the world. These legends are known to be the werewolves or Garou. Garou’s beliefs referred to Earth and Gaia, the wilderness. Garou are normally born from a Garou and an ordinary
When given the task to study the wolves, Mowat is given a packet about their traits. “The wolf is a savage, powerful killer. It is one of the most feared and hated animals known to man, and with excellent reason” (Mowat 60). Everyone in the Canadian territory believes that wolves are deadly creatures, yet they don’t have a specific reason why. People start to believe things because someone says something that seems realistic. Mowat was suspicious about the reasons, but realized they were unnecessary. Mowat’s mind is set that wolves are vicious and people need to keep a safe distance. Over time, learning more facts about the unknown, it changes people’s viewpoints about the world in which they live in.
Voice for the trees Lorax and logger Truax are considered heroes in their respective stories. Despite the two characters having such opposing views on the logging industry, they have many similarities when it comes to the delivery of their message. The Lorax shares a story of a persistent creature named Lorax who is frustrated with the Truffula trees being cut down by the evil Once-Ler. In the Truax a kind, gentle logger explains the countless benefits of logging to the grouchy Guardbark protector of the trees. This essay will compare and contrast the two stories.
Upon first reading “St. Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves,” it might seem like an imaginative fantasy and nothing else. The story focuses on the daughters of a pack of werewolves, and it takes place in a world where the werewolves and their daughters are nothing out of the ordinary. But upon closer examination, this is a story rooted in reality. This inventive tale parallels several real world phenomena. Karen Russell uses allegory in “St. Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves” to objectify western society’s views of people outside of that society and of outsiders in general, and compare them to the views that people have of wild animals.
The story begins with the Once-ler, informing the reader of the local natural history of the now world and how it was once home to the Lorax. The Onceler discloses to us that the Lorax can speak for the trees because tress have no tongues. The Once-ler has greedily taken advantage of this natural habitat, which was once home to the Truffula Tress. The Once-ler cruelly destroyed all the Truffula Trees to merchandise “thneeds”. Pollution is evident through the deformation and pursuit of economic gain of the Once-ler. All the creatures who
Nature has been cheated by the outstanding abilities of Coyote. However, the situation does not end like that. The forces of nature triumph once again in order to show a tale's moral. Bear acts in a more natural way. He finally concludes the cycle that his character was intended for, but not before showing an initial naïve personality. This situation creates a first impression on the reader/listener, implying that good convincing skills can defeat what is naturally expected to happen. However, and with full intention of developing a tale moral, these convincing skills only take effect on a temporary basis. The message this tale wants to issue is that nature might be unaware for some time, but at the end, it always defeats any intention of shortcutting the life cycle. This moral is among the most usual used in Native American coyote stories, which were normally told to audiences of young and old people alike. They were sometimes told to teach about cosmology, as instructional stories for the young, to explain history, and sometimes just for the sake of telling and listening to a funny story. In all these different cases, Coyote stories are a reflection for our own lives, pointing out the smallest miseries and the biggest strengths of humans. Unfortunately for him, in the present tale, Coyote serves as the example of a negative attitude, which finally always leads to a tragic end.
Everyone continued with their lives, the simple notice of an enemy rising seemed to slip their sights. Until the day that it happened. A monster from the depths below, one that no one had ever imagined to exist, tore its way through the settlement before leaving with some of the remaining humans. Those that were Hunters from a Tribe followed it, finding the bodies of their fellow survivors lifeless in the woods not far from the settlement. This was the beginning of their true
Metamorphoses of the Werewolf is a book that charts the evolution, growth and changes of werewolf stories “from Antiquity Throughout the Renaissance.” Each chapter focuses on a tale or set of myths in different time periods, and analyzes them, comparing and contrasting, as well as theorizing the meaning behind them based on textual evidence, mainly from church and court documents. Through this method, Ms. Sconduto points out direct correlations between werewolves and the belief systems of the churches in power.
“The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown” ― H.P. Lovecraft. Fear drives mankind to hate what he cannot comprehend. With this irrational fear mankind is controlled and set on a path of destruction and chaos. In the autobiography Never Cry Wolf written by Farley Mowat, the main character (Farley Mowat), journeys to the Canadian tundra to study the much-feared wolf. There he discovers the fear brought upon by men, and how it can result horribly for the wolves. The human race was so frightened by the unknown species that they began to blame the wolves for cold slaughters, portrayed them as vicious killers, and because of the fear of the unknown tried to exterminate
The Lorax as an environmental study, then we can connect the themes in the story to
In fifth grade I was heavily obsessed with wolves. I had a wolf backpack, socks,shirts, you name it. I would constantly draw pictures of them. One day I checked out a book on wolves at my school library. After reading the book ten year old me learned that my favorite species of wolves were endangered. I felt bad because I didn’t want them to disappear. So I went onto the website wwf.worldwildlife.org, an organization that helps endangered species. I had seen it in the book and donated twenty dollars that I borrowed from my parents. Although I only donated one time I kept up with the updates that they would provide. Nonetheless, we should all be concerned about protecting the endangered species. I want them to be around when I’m older and have a family which is why I believe that the restoration program of the Mexican Gray wolves is so important. Others may not agree with me because they don’t want another predator in the wild however, similarly to how the government works the wilderness needs checks and balances. The wolves contribute to it by being apart of the food chain.
Lopez’s writing is important to my paper because he documents the social and psychological history of human interactions with wolves. Mr. Lopez has been a highly respected authority on human and wolf interactions, and his first hand research for Of Wolves and Men was extensive. His recounting of the vicious and cruel treatment that wolves were subjected to documents the almost incomprehensible evil the human animal is capable of. This information helps present the mindset that many people have carried forward to today, and illustrates the irrational fear and hatred humans still exhibit when dealing with wolves. He gave a startling and alarming window into the human mind, and clearly demonstrates the resistance the wolf reintroduction and recovery efforts had to go up

The Lorax is a message to others to make them know about the cause of cutting down trees, but people around the world are chopping down trees and that is extremely dangerous. Chopping down trees is the cause of global warming, only due to carbon dioxide being released from trees, into the atmosphere, and is trapped there due to the source like bubble from our Exosphere. It is also troubling enough to make animals have to migrate to find new homes. People aren’t even trying to know about trees and the fact that destroying forest and local woods by either a fire or just cutting down trees in very big due to there are now animals who are becoming extinct from being killed by animals because they have nowhere to hide or their homes are absolutely demolished due to the destruction by humanity’s needy supplies and a vigorous need for more.
