Species have existed and gone extinct throughout history, and many people will argue that it’s ‘natural selection’ or ‘survival of the fittest’.

Environmental change is still the primary cause of

The future is seeming bright for my general population of animals. Sauron ate for me while I was watching for the first time today. He had eaten three whole annulipes- a ravenous appetite for a guy with such a tiny face. I even had the opportunity to hold him a while, while he ate his second pincher bug on my thumb. He handles pretty well for a ground skink. Even the wolf spiders, notorious for having bad temperaments, decided to be on their best behavior for me (Colette especially). Now that I have

An Exploration in Grice’s Widows Few people are obsessed with spiders; especially the black widow. But essayist Gordon Grice finds them particularly fascinating. His essay, “Caught in the Widow’s Web” explores the different facets of a black widow, what makes it a terrifying being to those who do not understand it, and an underlying meaning beyond a simple eight-legged creature. In a very matter-of-fact tone, Grice unfolds some of his knowledge, tells a story from his childhood, and discusses fear

his morning rituals and breakfast, Kino's wife Juana takes their son and places him in a basket to relax and sleep. Then, Kino and Juana both notice a scorpion lowering itself toward the young infant. After a failed attempt to deflect the falling arachnid, the scorpion stings the young child and is immediately crushed by the father. After Juana sucks as much of the poison out as she can, they send off to the doctor. This would be the whole journey of the story, as Kino tries to save Coyotito by

summer. Once the eggs hatch, the young horseshoe crabs are found offshore, within sandy areas of tidal flats. Adult horseshoe crabs are found in deeper parts of the ocean waters (National Wildlife Federation).

I was content with remaining this way and did so for many years. At the age of ten, my family moved to a different state which only increased my timidity.
