Canis Major

Canis Major can be seen at latitudes somewhat between +90° and -75° It is visible in the Northern Hemisphere from December through March, and visible in the Southern Hemisphere between November and April. Canis Major is being bordered by Monoceros and so as Canis Minor. It is near Orion. Canis Minor can be seen at latitudes somewhere between +90° and -75°, like Canis Major. It is visible in the Northern Hemisphere from December through March, and visible in the Southern Hemisphere between November

favorite Constellation is Canis Major, the Great Dog. It is located in the southern sky and it contains Sirius, the Dog Star. I chose this constellation because of the fact that it contains the Dog Star. I also like this constellation because it looks like it is following or chasing Orion. Canis Major was catalogued by the Greek Astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd Century. This Constellations is the 43rd largest constellation, taking up an area of 380 square degrees. Canis Major is associated with the fastest

Canis Major is my favorite constellation because I love dogs. I have currently have three Labrador Retrievers. Canis Major means "Greater Dog" in Latin. He is often represented with Canis Minor (Lesser Dog) and both are following Orion (The Hunter). Canis Major is located in the southern celestial hemisphere. Mythologists say that the constellation represents Laelaps, a dog so fast that no prey could outrun it. This dog had a long list of owners. The most likely version says that he was given

Canis Major is my favorite constellation out of all the other constellations because of its personal meaning to me. I chose this constellation because I have the most knowledge of it from my father who used to sit under the stars with me and tell me all about Orion and his faithful canine companions. I particularly liked that Canis Major was home to Sirius, the brightest star in the sky. My father told me stories of a man named Sirius Black that had gone to Hogwarts many years ago and it piqued my

Canis Major is my favorite constellation, I don't have a particular reason for this constellation to be my favorite, I just really like it. Canis Major, or The Greater Dog, is fairly easy to pick out in the night sky during the winter. It is made up of eight main stars, the brightest one being Sirius. Sirius also happens to be the closest star to Earth, in Canis Major. Canis Major is said to be the dog Laelaps, who was so fast that nothing it chased could outrun it. Laelaps had a whole bunch of

constellation I have chosen Canis Major, The Great Dog. I have chosen Canis Major because of how he and Canis Minor are often depicted as following the constellation of Orion the hunter through the sky. I have also chosen Canis Major because it contains Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, also known as "The Dog Star". Canis Major is located in the Southern Hemisphere with Monoceros to the north, Puppis to the east/southeast, Columba to the southwest, and Lepus to the west. Canis Major is one of the brightest

Review: In many small populations, inbreeding depression had created a major obstacle in the conservation of natural populations. To determine level of inbreeding in the Scandinavian wolf, Canis Lupus, DNA techniques were combined with the ecological field to construct the pedigree. This small population was founded by at least by two immigrated wolfs from a large Finnish/Russian source population. The field data was collected from the snow tracking and radio telemetry, and territorial pairs and

different back then from what we see and know about them now. So where exactly did they come from? According to the Evolution Library on the PBS website, dogs are not only connected to another animal, but are a direct descendant to the wolf species “canis lupus” or gray wolf. Many have discovered that dogs are basically tamed versions of wolves. The distinction between the two species is the smaller teeth, ears, and muzzles of the dogs. Dogs were considered wild or untamed until about twelve thousand

Next, Are some stories from the police officer and Port Authority Officers that were there at the towers helping out by treating and evacuating people out of the towers that day. On the morning of September 11, Joe got up earlier than usual to vote in the Democratic primary election. He noted that he was getting the first taste of fall, that was clear, that the temperature was just a little bit down from hot, and the humidity was low-that it was just a beautiful New York day. On that morning he was

rare and often unsuccessful. The product of hybrids are most often sterile and unfit to survive in the natural world. North America may claim one of the most successful hybrids of this century. The newly discovered “coy wolf” is a mix between two canis species, the western coyote and the eastern wolf. This hybrid is also called the eastern coyote or northeastern coyote. The hybrid did not arise spontaneously. Human’s set up the perfect scenario to create a hybrid from species that would otherwise
